THE TOP TEN WORST HIT SONGS OF 2015
A year-end review
Todd: In a world of online reviews, only one man; one...brave soul; waits to release his top tens for the year until mid-January!
Montage clips of The Weeknd - "The Hills"; Drake - "Hotline Bling"; Adele - "Hello"; Justin Bieber - "What Do You Mean?"; Major Lazor & DJ Snake ft. MØ - "Lean On"; Taylor Swift - "Wildest Dreams"; David Guetta ft. Nicki Minaj, Bebe Rexha & Afrojack - "Hey Mama"; WALK THE MOON - "Shut Up And Dance"; Wiz Khalifa ft. Charlie Puth - "See You Again"; Fetty Wap - "Trap Queen"; Meghan Trainor - "Lips Are Moving"; and OMI - "Cheerleader"
Todd (VO): I mean seriously, why am I the only one who waits? The year's not over until it's over! I saw some publications put up their best of the year lists in November! It's like Christmas ads, it just keeps rolling further and further. Hell people are doing a whole "Christmas in July" thing now. [picture of publication's "The 50 Best Albums of 2015 ... So Far] Best of the year. So far. Nothing has happened yet! I, however, prudently choose to not even start working on these babies until the year is good and over so I don't miss anything. Who knows what utter monstrosities might sneak in under the wire! I'm not procrastinating!
Todd: I'm being thorough! ... Okay I'll admit, I did drag my feet a little bit doing the worst list this year. 'Cause I'll be honest, I didn't really hate all that much! I mean, in fact...
Clip of Mark Ronson ft. Bruno Mars - "Uptown Funk"
Todd (VO): ...I quite like a lot of the year! After the awful, awful year that was 2014, 2015 was a goddamn relief. I mean [clip of "Pretty Girls" by Britney Spears and...] did Iggy Azalea have a hit this year? No. See? Much better year. Can't wait to do my best list. I almost don't wanna drag myself through the dregs when pop music took such a notable uptake!
Todd: In fact it's not too late to skip this list, is it? Can we go right to the best...ah, nah, you'd probably kill me. Alright, let's do this. We're counting down...
- Clip of Big Sean ft. E-40 - "I Don't Fuck With You"[2], which serves as the interlude throughout the countdown.
- Big Sean: I don't fuck with you
Todd (VO): The Top Ten Worst Hit Songs of 2015!
- Big Sean: ...you
- You little, you little dumb ass bitch, I ain't fuckin' with you
#10
Todd (VO): #10.
Todd: I don't know how to say this, but um...I'm too old for this shit.
#10. T-Wayne - "Nasty Freestyle"[3]
T-Wayne: First let me hop out the motherfucking Porsche.
Don't want it if that ass don't sit like a horse.
Todd (VO): Look. I'm in my 30's. In pop music terms, I'm ready for the nursing home. I'm just sitting at home listening to all my old LPs on my hi-fi while the whippersnappers listen to their tween core on Snapgram or whatever the hell.

Honorable mentions
Maroon 5 - "Sugar"[12]
Adam Levine: Sugar, yes please
Todd (VO): The year that Maroon 5 redeem themselves...not 2015. And this is actually one of the more tolerable Maroon 5 songs in recent memory. I just wanted...you know, that at their best they're still goddamn terrible.
O.T. Genasis - "CoCo"[13]
O.T. Genasis: I'm in love with the CoCo, CoCo
Another Vine rapper. If there are any other songs that get big off of Vine, just put them on my worst list automatically.
Justin Bieber - "Sorry"[14]
Justin: Is it too late now to say sorry?
Todd (VO): Being honest, I actually don't mind this song at all. In fact I honestly kinda like it. It's just...Christ, Bieber's such a shit!
Justin: You gotta go and get angry at all of my honesty
Todd (VO): My god, Bieber, you're such a terrible human being!
Todd: What the hell is wrong with you...
iLoveMemphis - "Hit the Quan"[15]
iLoveMemphis: Hit the Quan! Hit the Quan! Hit the Quan!
Todd: No, I'm not gonna hit the Quan. The Quan never did anything to me.
Todd (VO): Literally the only reason why "Watch Me" made the list and this didn't is because this actually has lyrics.
Todd: Oh, setting low bars today, aren't we?
Shawn: I'm without your kisses
Todd (VO): You suck, Mendes! You suck.
Nick Jonas - "Chains"[17]
Nick: You got me in chains
You got me in chains for your love
Todd (VO): Whenever I get annoyed at The Weeknd's hard, sexy R&B guy schtick, I remind myself that it can always, always be worse.

R. City ft. Adam Levine - "Locked Away"[19]
