Worst Current CHR Song(s)

"Jar of Hearts" by Christina Perri... just, ugh... just hearing the song makes me think of really bad Twilight fanfics :(

When I first heard it come on (on WYJB, an AC station), for some reason I thought it was Evanescence, too ::)
 
Born This Way by Lady Gaga. Has a good message but the song itself is rather meh. Its definitely no Poker Face or Bad Romance.
 
All the songs you mentioned EXCEPT FOR LADY GAGA and Grenade are great songs! are you joking me? Christina Perri has an amazing voice actually sings and plays an instrument and writes her own stuff. It's one of the few last good artists left we have in the world. Forget you is awesome. Flo-Rida NEVER EVER releases bad music! I like Evanesence.
Songs that I hate right now:
Whip My Hair back (even though it's old: I only like the beginning part then when the chorus starts I wanna shut it off!)
Katy Perry-Firework
Rihanna-S&M, Whats my name
Kesha-blow
nicki minaj (she's horrible! & she ruins bottoms up!, Nicki quit interrupting I wanna hear the rest of the song!)
Train-Marry Me (too sappy and happy and crap) It's horrible! Who wants to hear that garbage!

You've gotta be kidding me. There are infinite great artists out there, they just don't get mainstream radio play. ;)
 
Im not really feeling Britneys new song. I hardly listen to the lyrics but I feel the song should have been a 2nd or 3rd release.

My list
Black Eye Peas The Time : Another great song from the 80's ruined

Michael Jackson & Akon Hold My Hand: No disrepect to MJ R.I.P It may not be new but I feel that song should have never been released

Jennifer Lopez On The Floor with PitBull: I like PitBull but why does everytime JLO does a new song she always gotta have a rapper on her song LL Cool J, Big Pun( R.I.P), Faboulus, Ludachris Just do American Idol

Nelly Just A Dream: Just dont like the lyrics or the beat

Wiz Khalifa Black And Yellow: Never cared for the song very annoying and overplayed

Mann Buzzin: I guess a few stations have it in rotation but I think its annoying. It funny how the young kids think its a new beat but the song was done like 2 times already. New Shooz I Cant Wait, Vanessa Williams
Happiness.

Diddy Dirty Money Coming Home: Another Bad Boy group with a short life spand. We all remeber The Band from MTV Making The Band and Danitiy Kane dont see them or anybody from his record label making hits. Please stop making records.

And anything with Rihanna since shes so full of herself now
 
Here's the thing:

If a song wasn't a good song or wasn't catchy at all, it wouldn't be charting. Period.

MJ & Akon - barely charted
Willow Smith - only charted a tad bit more

I'll agree that Rihanna, BEP, Nelly all have TIRED songs but the songs in itself is catchy and remember who CHR targets, 18-34 ladies. "I was thinking about her, thinking bout me, thinkin bout us, what we gon be?" Imagine a 26 yr old lady on the way home from work. She's singing along with the music up! It's the chorus that makes a song usually too.

Waka Flocka - how is it on CHR? I'll tell you. "Girl the way you movin, got me in a trance, DJ turn me up, ladies this your jam!" Once again, another catchy song. Notice the harder rap and the softer pop doesn't chart that well on CHR. There are a few that are catchy that do though such as "Rhythm Of Love" - it'll be interesting to see what happens with "Marry Me" but remember, it's all about how the woman would react to it.
 
KIIS FM here in Los Angeles plays MJ and Akon sometimes. I havent heard it on KAMP yet. Only other station that would give it airplay is rythnmic KGGI or urban ac KJLH. KIIS normally ignores the CHR panel they play what favors Los Angeles listeners who are majority latino. They still somewhat ignore rock hits.
 
I'll second Lady Gaga "Born This Way". While I think the song is lyrically strong and I personally agree with the message, the song is just bad. Its a cheap Madonna knock off, and a bad one at that. I don't care for Madonna and I don't care for imitations of her, either.
 
There are several that I am not feeling....Rihanna S&M, Jeremih Down on Me, Black Eyed Peas: Just Can Get Enough, but for me the worst CHR song is Moment 4 life: Nicki Minaj f/t Drake.

Actually the message sucks....I'd say the song is better which is a Vogue rip off of Madonna.
 
I really wouldn't call Down On Me or Moment 4 Life current CHR songs (at least not yet) - they're both in the 30s with pretty modest bullets
 
Either way its a rip off from Express Yourself but I guess we have to wait and see whats on the new album in March. The gay and lesiban clubs love it of course.
