“Q”Bombs: July 8, 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.

1) “Payphone”—Ugh! It went back up to No.1 on VH1 again! ODWITS!
2) “Drunk on You”—How much longer do we have to be tortured by this latest Luke Bryan video?
3) “5-1-5-0”—Man, this Dierks Bentley video keeps growing in popularity and looks like it’s going to be big. Life is unkind…………………
4) “Springsteen”—Still going strong. Just like Bruce…………………..
5) “Let’s Go”—Nah. Let’s stay here………………
6) “Scream”—Only if I have to watch this Usher video………….
7) “Postcards from Paris”—The song sounds very similar in melody to “You Lie”—almost if The Band Perry ran out of ideas by the time they got to this song. ……………
8) “Over”—Alright, now that I’ve gotten over the shock of seeing another Death Valley video, I have to say that Blake Shelton’s song is way better than “Remind Me.” This one may end up switching lists……………..
9) “Wanted”—I guess I would have wanted a better video from Hunter Hayes…………
10) “Titanium”David Guetta’s video continues to stand strong like its namesake……
