“Q” Bombs: March 4, 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.

Worst Videos for the week of March 4, 2012

1. Not Over You—Gavin DeGraw
2. I Don’t Want This Night to End—Luke Bryan
3. Remind Me—Brad Paisley with Carrie Underwood
4. Just a Dream/Dream On—Steven Tyler and Carrie Underwood
5. God Gave Me You—Blake Shelton
6. Safe and Sound—Taylor Swift and The Civil Wars
7. It Will Rain—Bruno Mars
8. Alone With You—Jake Owen
9. Don’t Stop (Colors on the Wall)—Foster the People
10. Set Fire to the Rain—Adele

1) “Not Over You”—It’s stuck at number 13 again on VH1’s Top 20 Video Countdown like it was the last time it made their countdown before it fell off. SEXTUPLE ODWITS!!!!!! (Wait! That almost sounds like a compliment.)
2) “I Don’t Want This Night to End”—It actually says “To be continued” at the end of this video. I am too stunned to comment now…………..
3) “Remind Me” —This one continues to defy the law of gravity, so I moved it up again on my list…………….
4) “Just a Dream/Dream On”—I have never liked Aerosmith’s “Dream On,” and putting it together with Carrie Underwood only made it worse for me—if that’s even possible…………………….
5) “God Gave Me You”—Where’s “an eye for an eye” when you really need it………..
6) “Safe and Sound”—The thin melody cannot pull this video through. If this song does well, it’s only on the strength of Taylor Swift. This one smells—and looks like a “bear” song………………………………
7) “It Will Rain”—Hey! It rained in Texas! Maybe Bruno Mars does have other talents………
8] “Alone With You”—This one really isn’t that bad. It’s just not very exciting—or interesting. Except maybe for the ladies………………..
9) “Don’t Stop (Colors on the Wall)”—This video reappears on this list, and that isn’t good. I am sooooooooooo tired of this wimpy song…………………
10) “Set Fire to the Rain”—This song is the weakest single off of “21” so far and this weak video doesn’t help it……………
