What is the most socially damaging song ever released? - By a record label

[Turquoise]

"Do they know it's Christmas?" (Feed the World) - Band Aid.

Strong shout. Feeding the world is a burden the white man never needed.

I'm surprised no one mentioned Helter Skelter.

A song to kick off the great race war of America?

 

[Unimaginative Username]

I say Taylor Swift mainly because I wish her sycophants would stop shoving her down everyone's throats. What the hell makes her so special anyway!?

I can appreciate the sentiment, but I don't think she's appropriate for this thread because part of what makes her and her cult so insufferable is that she only has something like four songs that she endlessly self-plagiarizes (but she's soooo creative). Since they're all so alike, it's hard to single one out as being "the" most socially damaging.

What I don’t like about her music is that they’re nothing there. It’s the embodiment of “the lights are on, but no one’s home” in music form.

Axel F AKA the Beverly Hills Cop theme

Nothing wrong with the track itself. The problem comes from a certain person called Erik Wernquist who created a little CGI creation called the Annoying thing


Or as it's better known, The crazy frog.

This video went viral back in the early internet and eventually spawned this

I have no idea what is was like for the rest of the world but this remix rocketed that little CGI shit to heights unknown and as such it was EVERYWHERE in the UK.
Every telly ad break: Crazy frog
Every classroom: Twat with the Crazy Frog ringtone
Every arcade: Crazy frog toys
Fucker even had a video game on the ps2

It was inescapable and it was around seemingly forever.

Clawfinger - Nigger

 

[De-Sexing Stick]

John Lennon's Imagine

Excuse me sir, but were you aware John Lennon was based as fuck?

Favorite comment: "Bro had an n word pass that expired in December of 1980."

Also, I love that this was remastered in 2010, someone out there is a fucking king.

 

[Caligura]

Literally Globohomo Anthem of the Antichrist

God what a fucking insufferable song

we finally have the rebuttal

 

[William Murderface]

I never had a problem with Imagine, but I just took it as a song where the singer said "wouldn't it be great if we stopped killing each other over trivial shit?" It was just a song. It was when self-important types turned it into a paean to whatever their cause of the week was that it became this huge anthem to the smell of their own farts and a veritable religion unto itself. Instead of just being a more-or-less forgettable A-Side of a single (the B-Side of It's So Hard is so much better) from a guy who would literally write a song to pay for a swimming pool or some girlfriend's abortion yammering about no possessions was lost on those who listened to the song and thought it was the key to a utopia.

 

[May I Please Have a Water]

Let me flip it on you, what's the worst rap music you've heard. Subject matter or beat doesn't matter. Do send a link I love laughing at terrible music.

 

[Kim]

Down Under and its consequences have been a disaster for the Aussie people.

 

[Mike Matei's Penis]

"The Next Episode" by Snoop Dogg because people took "Smoke Weed Everyday" as a religion.

 

[ZsaZsaBinks]

“Gangnam Style”

It made K-Pop popular and romanticized South Korea, despite the country being a land of disasters and family violence.

 

[Vibromatic Heart Bed]

"All about the bass" by Meghan Trainor was an objectively terrible song. Just fat-glorifying and skinny-shaming under the guise of so-called ~~body positivity~~

I used to seethe whenever I heard that song. No treble? Stick figure? Skinny bitches?? Also the way she brags about "boys like MY booty!" as if male sexual attention is the prize, and then she gaslights you with the "haha I'm just playing, every inch of you is perfect" like fuck off Meghan you just called me a bitch!

My fat friends were obsessed with this song back in 2014/2015 and we legit got into fights over it lol

And the fact that she's now a "skinny bitch" just goes to show how full of shit she was when she wrote the song

 

[2mm and 99 others]

Don't worry be happy

-and anything else spreading toxic positivity.

 

[The greater a'tuin]

“Gangnam Style”

It made K-Pop popular and romanticized South Korea, despite the country being a land of disasters and family violence.

The Korean wave started several years later later though.

 

[Ewan McGregor]

Imagine

We didn't start the fire

 

[three_little_rats]

This is going to be unpopular, but anything from Nirvana. Fucking hate them and how they changed music scene/society to annoying faggots.

 

[ZsaZsaBinks]

The Korean wave started several years later later though.

Gangnam Style was huge for a year. Also, there were other K-Pop groups that were known about, like Girls Generation.

 

[Soso]

The Korean wave started several years later later though.

There were the Wonder Girls who briefly tried in the US and failed for many reasons, and other groups that attempted since the first generation. But technically it did take longer for it to set in with BTS and BLACKPINK setting in. PSY did set the roots for it's success.

 

[No-Eyed Square Guy]

Sayyid Qutb, the brains of the Muslim Brotherhood, was radicalized by "Baby It's Cold Outside." So by body count and general oppressive effect it's probably the winner (excluding anthems and war propaganda songs).

At least he understood the lyrics. As the Anglosphere's IQ has plummeted, the song has become a demonic totem to feminists and other illiterates, too.
