Great news. Scientists have discovered the "worst song ever." After conducting online research in the early 90s about people's least favorite musical and lyrical subjects, Vitaly Komar, Alex Melamid and David Soldier began a mission to produce the most annoying song ever. It's pretty terrible. Listen here.

- "Amazingly, this “most unwanted music” contains little dissonance — that would have been too easy. For the most part, they seem to have tried to assemble these elements in a listenable way."
The song features unloved elements such as holiday music, bagpipes, pipe organ, a children's chorus and the concept of children in general, Wal-Mart, cowboys, political jingoism, George Stephanopoulos, Coca Cola, bossanova synths, banjo ferocity, harp glissandos, oompah-ing tubas, and more.
While interesting, this is right up there with the dumbest studies of 2008. Why are we spending $ on this again?
What did you think of the awful song?
