“Q” Bombs:July 22, 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.

Luke Bryan hits the top on CMT so I have to respond in kind. This rendezvous appears to have been inevitable……………………………..

1) “Drunk on You”—#1 on CMT. DOUBLE ODWITS!!
2) “5-1-5-0”—How come the po-po don’t know about this Dierks Bentley crime of a video…………………….
3) “Payphone”Maroon 5’s video slowly tries to climb back to the top of the ooze………
4) “Scream”—I guess nobody can hear me scream about Usher’s boring video………………
5) “Springsteen”—Thankfully, Eric Church only spent one week on top. Maybe the video can finally disappear……………
6) “Cowboys and Angels”—Name two groups that probably don’t like Dustin Lynch’s video………………………….
7) “Ho Hey”—Ho Hey. I guess The Lumineers decided to hang around……………..
8) “Let’s Go”—I’m getting the impression that Calvin Harris doesn’t want to follow his video instructions………………
9) “Glass”—I just swapped out a one boring black-and-white Hunter Hayes video for a Thompson Square boring black-and-white video……………………..
10) “Titanium”David Guetta’s title is a misnomer: Titanium is a precious metal. The video is neither precious nor a metal………………………… QQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQ
