Probably "Invisible Kid" by Metallica off their St. Anger album. Granted, a lot of the songs off that album don't really have a lot of replay value. But that song to me is by far the worst thing off that album. It's not catchy, music wise, the guitar sounds terribly out of tune, and most shocking of all, the vocals and lyrics are far below the standards that James Hetfield has set for himself over the course of his career. He just sounds weak and uninspired throughout this entire song, which feels like it's about 6 minutes too long to begin with. Really, it should have been left on the cutting room floor, as far as I'm concerned...

As terrible as Bugs is, I love the fact that it exists. It's like they're taking the piss out of the concept of music itself. I'd also like to mention Alice in Chains' Iron Gland. It's a guitar riff Jerry Cantrell liked to play to annoy the other members of the band, and they let him put it on an album in exchange for never doing it again.

@SciFyerGaming great take on that song. like most PJ songs there can be multiple meanings and what it means to us, what it means to Eddie Vedder or the other band members, and what Eddie Vedder says it means to the media, are all different things and can still all be true. Eddie said he had terrible poison ivy at the time and was itching out of his skin and that's why he wrote that song. he got the accordion at a second hand store and was messing around with it. he said he would play that song for people, tell them (with a straight face) it was their next single, and he thought it was the best thing they'd ever done. he talked about it in an interview and he thought it was pretty damn funny. could it also be about his anxiety from fame, being hounded by the media, and being stalked by crazy fans, sure.

[@jennanevara5871]

Two interesting notes: 1. R.E.M.'s intent with Shiny Happy People was supposed to be satire of something that happened in China, where they covered a violent bombing with murals of "shiny happy people". Obviously the satire failed and it became a cheesy as hell song. 2. No one except Axl knew of My World's existence when recorded. Axl made it all by himself two weeks before the album released. The band didn't even know it existed until after the album came out.

[@EmoBearRights]

I prefer to The Sidewinder Sleeps Tonighte which sounds like another band trying to be REM.

[@ManekiNeko1972]

When the album came out, I played it for my friend Vicki, and she said "He's just being silly, isn't he?". That's a good way to describe My World. The song isn't bad, it's just silly. When he did the Charles Manson cover? THAT WAS BAD.

[@SavageGreywolf]

The story about Shiny Happy People being about China censoring news of a terrorist bombing, or the Tiananmen Square Massacre is an urban legend. The band has never said that was the case and Michael Stipe explicitly said the opposite, that it was unironically a happy pop song and that he hates it. R.E.M. fans really want that song to secretly not be twee trash. sorry folks.

[@zetas2968]

Propaganda seemed weird to me at first, but then I realized what I’d been missing the whole time. Man, the contrast between slick, sexy guitar with funky groove in the verse and computerized voice in the chorus is what makes this tune so amazing, full off crazy silliness which is what I love this band for.

I honestly have a real soft spot for Shiny Happy People. It's honestly so kid-friendly happy that it goes all the way to legit creepy and unnerving (which I think was the original intention of the song). It's like the theme song for a cult. And I always have a fondness for songs that initially seem happy and fun yet are anything but.

Honestly, All in the Family is very on brand, but poorly executed. I feel there was bit of making fun of the underground rap battle culture (which this clearly was), and JDs lyrics were often offensive. Think of Clown, Daddy, and Fagit. Hell, ADIDAS. Though, to be fair, ADIDAS could also be on this list and it would be difficult to argue his reasons, and I do believe it might be their shame song, I know it's Head's shame song. And to be even more fair, Daddy wasnt offensive to be shocking, or to develop a musical style, although it did both. Daddy, imo, will remain their opus. Despite being a difficult listen lyrically, the song is genius, and is important to those who suffered a similar abuse to know they are not alone. Well, I guess that was an unneeded tangent.

[@TiggerIsMyCat]

I think I have a more positive opinion of Shiny Happy People because I was young enough to only ever hear it in two places (and both had a profound effect on me to the point that I really only associate the song with these), an episode of Sabrina the Teenage Witch, when she went to an alternate universe where everyone was sad and angry, and an episode of Angel, where it represented everyone being happy all the time, but only because they were under the magical influence of a worldwide Supreme Leader demon goddess who took human sacrifices and killed anybody who wasn't completely happy and obedient.

Axl Rose created My World after being inspired by Trent Reznor‘s music style in Nine Inch Nails, when he opened for GNR, I believe.

[@carltonvonhammerstein]

In the defence of Korn, they were druggies when the recorded their older stuff, and Jonathan was most likely high and/or drunk during the writing and recording process of All In The Family.

[@freakystyley4000]

Nope.

[@patricklauer4452]

Nafisa Tinwala I do too

[@area.man.]

Comments section is full of people that like it. The only one that doesn't seem to like it is the guy doing the video.

[@lokisgodhi]

Gee, always thought REM's Shiny Happy People, was meant to be viewed ironically.

[@rick9977015]

Megadeths Risk is hilarious! Well back checking out your vids, they are awesome. I laugh and cry and here of bands I've never heard of. Or hear a cover I never heard. Just awesome!

[@_emilyelizabeth_]

I once played 'Bugs' for someone who hadn't really listened to PJ much before and jokingly told them that's what most of their songs sound like. 😂 I don't think it's completely terrible. I mean, I thought it was pretty humorous how unexpected it is compared to the rest of the albun and that song actually brings back good memories for me now.

[@mitchnin10dofan]

Ironically enough, Shiny Happy People is the only REM song I like. Mainly because of Sesame Street.

[@tjg121389]

Nothing wrong with the Sesame Street version!

[@FragmentedR_YT]

MitchNin10dofan man, the ONLY one?! I know everyone has different tastes in music, but I’d highly recommend you also take a listen to Driver 8, Radio Free Europe, Man On The Moon, Loosing My Religion, So. Central Rain... basically any song they made from 1983 to the mid 90s because I refuse to believe that’s the only R.E.M. song you could find any enjoyment in (and I actually like SHP too).

[@FabulousKilljoy]

okay so I'm not the only person who watched all star alphabet

[@thebasedgodmax1163]

@@FragmentedR_YT to be honest they probably only know about 3 of their songs

[@FragmentedR_YT]

The Based God Max yeah, but even if you only know three, I don’t get how you could like one but not the other two. I assume SHP is the only R.E.M. song Mitch has heard, but I’m probably wrong on that.

[@djkehoe4480]

It's funny you put shiny happy people because, for a long time, I thought Stipe hated Stand the most.

[@official_ISM]

Pink Cellphone is one of my FAVORITE songs from Saturday Night Wrists. I didn’t like it at first, but the whole song is so weird and uncomfortable that it’s actually quite brilliant. I get why people don’t like it though.

[@Rountree1985]

Wrist.

[@thekarategirl5787]

Shiny Happy People is a good song but it isn't a good REM song. There's a difference.

[@grim1683]

I’m not even a Pearl Jam fan but bugs is a disasterpiece that really should be forgotten.

[@xtlm]

Pearl Jam didn't play Bugs live until like 2009 when they were in Philly and doing every song they ever released over 4 nights. It was played on the last concert ever at the Spectrum on Halloween. They played 42 songs that night. The crowd loved it when he pulled out the accordion, they knew what they were getting into.

[@travis2950]

True

[@Mr._Kagle]

As a diehard fan of both eras of Genesis, I think that their self-titled album is really good; songs like "Mama", the "Home by the Sea" suite, and "Just a Job to Do" are among the best of the Phil Collins era. It's a shame that "Illegal Alien" is also on it. That song alone is what keeps me from calling the album a masterpiece.

[@mmsiphonevinyls1027]

Same , i love all their work from Foxtrot to We Cant Dance, and IMO that LP has some great cuts on it. Even ones some older fans hate like Taking It All Too Hard and Thats All. But to me, Illegal Alien did for it what Who Dunnit did for Abacab.

[@AmandaHugandKiss411]

Agreed.

[@Vic23941]

I had both Illusions in pirate CDs back in the early 2000's . Illusion 1 came just fine, but strangely Illusion 2 had 2 tracks missing, Don't Cry with alternative lyrics and My World. Somehow the album worked much better this way.

Saturday Night Wrist is my favorite Deftones album... except Pink Cellphone.

[@miahthorpatrick1013]

I actually really love Saturday Night Wrist with a passion. To this day songs like "combat" and "beware" still get to me in a way that some Deftones songs don't............and I friggin love the Deftones!

Xerxes is an amazing song.

[@Celicagame13]

It’s my favorite album too but they don’t play anything off that album live anymore

[@katej2284]

Even amongst fellow FOB fans this is apparently an unpopular opinion but I love Young and Menace! On the flip side My World is so traumatic my brain had completely erased it from my memory.

[@sadmac356]

I like it too, even though I have questions about what exactly they were trying to do there

[@DevilzDance81]

Deftones self titled is probably one of my favorite albums but the song “lucky” is completely out of place. Should have been a hidden track on White Pony or SNW. Agreed on Pink Cellphone 👍🏻

[@Hellfire14]

It's funny. I saw your "10 good songs by bad bands," and legitimately liked majority of those bands. But this video I didn't care for most of the bands. I'm not "butt hurt" about it because like you have said it's just opinions. So legitimately think it's kinda funny. It was entertaining to watch and you're still respectful while being passionate about it so keep doing what you do man.

[@emmal7510]

I keep forgetting "Illegal Alien" exists, until lists like this one remind me. Why Genesis? Why?

[@KevinLuper99]

So Shiny Happy People was never ironic? I thought that song was genius but I was wrong, huh. Wild.

[@johnoneil9188]

REM is one of those bands that I know more songs of than I expected when looking back because they always played at some point in my life at more or less important moments. Is REM my soundtrack?

[@legoboy-ox2kx]

I mean, Simulation Theory as a wholes isn't anything incredible, but Propaganda is by no means bad. GUAF, or Something human were criticized way harder, even if I enjoy both songs in a way. That funky guitar just sounds so awesome.

[@tristanraine]

Also, no one talks about Dig Down lmao

[@elayas101]

No one I know likes this song and I love it, except of course for the intro and the outro, but the rest of it? I think it’s a brilliant pop song.

[@legoboy-ox2kx]

@@elayas101 I liked the Dark Side and Thought Contagion the most on this album, Blockades and Break it to Me are also really good

[@weregretohio7728]

I want to nominate Supercollider (the entire album) by Megadeth. It's also really, really bad.

[@brandons6167]

Nothing good since "United Abominations". Except "Dystopia".

[@seancondon5572]

The Megadeth album "Risk" was actually quite aptly named. I seem to recall reading somewhere that one of the band members (the bassist, I think?) made the suggestion, and Mustaine knew it was a risk... hence the album's name.

[@JrJrJrJrphD]

Yeah I agree with you on Propaganda. Easily their worst song:(

[@Vince_Tasciotti]

I saw the Deftones open for KISS in Albany, NY. Each song as given less applause then the one before. They announced "This Will Be Our Last Song" and applause was deafening. They played the song and about four people clapped when it ended. I can explain Illegal Alien by Genesis. *Clears Throat* Phil Collins wrote "Sussudio". So how bad can Illegal Alien really be? Well, it's really bad. But it's written by the same guy who wrote "Sussudio", so you kind of need to see the declining song writing skills in action. And Phil Collins was barely a song writer to begin with.

I like Shiny Happy People, i never think it was bad. All In The Family is so outdated and cringe but i still have a good laugh with that song from time to time (Fun fact it was played live during the Family Values tour). also My World sound like Axl trying to do a Fred Durst impression before Limp Bizkit was a thing

[@Themoushtaceleague96]

“Rock ‘N Roll High School” by The Ramones “All in the Family” by Korn feat. Fred Durst “Kill the DJ” by Green Day “Revolution 9” by The Beatles “Kokomo” by The Beach Boys (more or less the Mike Love led era of)

[@johnkoch9315]

Nolan Vogel Hey, you leave Rock N Roll High School and Revolution No. 9 alone

[@Themoushtaceleague96]

John Koch I mean, I’m a die hard fan of both bands I think off the white album, it’s the one I skip the most because it’s long and meaningless. As for Rock ‘N Roll High School, Pet Semetary is the better Ramones song from a based on a movie

[@Themoushtaceleague96]

xennialpride80 yeah. Kokomo is the only later beach boys track I’ve heard

[@zladvevo9724]

I genuinely love listening to revolution 9 and Kokomo is quite fun as well, but the rest of these OOF

[@thetonytaye]

Never heard the first two or ‘Revolution 9’ but I rather enjoy ‘Kill the DJ’ (for as dumb and corny as it is), and ‘Kokomo’ is a hell of a lot better than what I’ve heard from that Trainwreckord (😉) that is Summer in Paradise.

[@thejon93rd]

I have no idea why, but "Honky Tonk Blues" by Huey Lewis and the News was the first song that popped into my head. It's the last track on Sports and it is just cringe-worthy.

[@bouzoukiman5000]

As a metal and heavy music loving high school kid "shinny happy people" was a breath of fresh air on mtv. And all the girls loved to sing it so it was very well received. Nowadays it's super nostalgic and heartwarming to hear. Thinking about all the hope we had for the world and now looking at what we have makes me love it even more!
