“Q” Bombs: October 14, 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 October 14, 2012

1. Come Wake Me Up—Rascal Flatts
2. Blown Away—Carrie Underwood
3. Cowboys and Angels—Dustin Lynch
4. Too Close—Alex Clare
5. We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together—Taylor Swift
6. Ho Hey—The Lumineers
7. As Long As You Love Me—Justin Bieber and Big Sean
8. Walk the Sun—Anna Moon
9. Good Time—Owl City and Carly Rae Jepsen
10. Hall of Fame—The Script and will.i.am

1) “Come Wake Me Up”Rascal Flatts moved into the Top Ten on CMT meaning that this video is not going to make a quick exit……………….
2) “Blown Away”Carrie Underwood and melodrama keep her near the top for fans on CMT…………
3) “Cowboys and AngelsDustin Lynch’s washed out looking video continues to rise on CMT’s countdown. It may take both “cowboys and angels” to remove him from that list…………
4) “Too Close”Alex Clare is moving “too close” to the top of VH1’s list…………
5) “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together”Taylor Swift’s song has crossed into the Top Ten on both VH1 and CMT. Unfortunately, it looks like this one’s going to be around a lot longer than I thought…………………..
6) “Ho Hey”The Lumineers start to disappear-ay……………..
7) “As Long As You Love Me”Justin Bieber hurls on stage and I guess everyone “still loves him.” The performance may have been better than his video……………….
8) “Walk the Sun”—I don’t think that the “sun or Anna Moon” can get me to like this song…………….
9) “Good Time”Owl City and Carly Rae Jepsen didn’t fall off the list fast enough. I’m worried “Good Time” is turning into a simbie for me. ODWITS!
10) “Hall of Fame”—I haven’t seen The Script’s new video all that much, so my opinion may change, but honestly, I don’t get what makes The Script as popular as they are without throwing will.i.am into the mix………………
