“Q” Bombs: February 19, 2012

A “Q” Bomb, like an “H” bomb, will be my term for a music video that I consider to be subpar in music, video, or both. This will be a recurring weekly list that will focus on the worst videos that are currently on TV. I don’t, as a rule, go searching for old music videos, so that’s why it will focus on solely on current or recent videos.
I hate to be so negative about music, but when an artist takes a “bad” song and then brings more attention to it by creating a “bad” video to support it, it will appear on this list. I honestly hope, and it could happen, that this list will be less than 10 items, but I have serious doubts that that possibility will happen. We are, after all, talking about an industry that uses art for huge profits. The companies can’t help themselves.
However, at this point, I will not do a 10 worst music list. I see absolutely no reason to waste time reemphasizing bad music. Once is enough.

2) “I Don’t Want This Night to End”—If only the video and song could live up to the title……
3) “It Will Rain”Bruno Mars compares the end of a relationship to a weather report. Whatever……………………
4) “Tonight is the Night”—Oh, yeah. Sharing lousy looking food with each other. What a night…………………………
5) “Remind Me” —If only there was something there to remember……………….
6) “Set Fire to the Rain”—I’m sorry, but six Grammys will not change my mind about this video………..
7) “God Gave Me You”—Such a gift…………………………………
8] “Alone With You”—Another pedestrian country ballad video……………….
9) “Don’t Stop (Color on the Walls)”—This one would have made my faves list if it wasn’t for the weird ending………………………….
10) “Tattoos on This Town”—I think this one will still be around for a long time………..
