900. Girl in the Tower (King's Quest VI) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69M2iiI__XQ&hd=1 Appeared in: VGMC5

I've come to like vocal songs more a bit over the years. Sure I still think a bunch of them are kind of boring/annoying but at least there are also a whole bunch of songs I actually like and love.

However there are songs like THESE that just go out of their way to try to not... be good at all.

Like, I’m usually not fond of those opera ballad songs or whatever, but this song is seriously just trying way too hard to be cheesy/emotional or something.

Like I mean when you get to the later part of the song, the guy singer literally screams OOOOHHH IMMM CALLLLLLLINNN OUUUTTTTTT. I mean what.

I would only consider recommending this song to the most hardcore Theatre people I know and even then I would probably only recommend it to my Theather teacher in high school who I did not like at all.

899. Title Screen (Crazy Bus) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sC0cvwnG0Ik&hd=1 Appeared in: VGMC4

Oh my god the year of Crazy Bus. The first truly truly terrible song a VGMC song has ever had.

I don’t think anyone will legitimately try to argue this is a good song, not even the most hardcore chiptunes fans.

Ok seriously I swear these are the worst samples I’ve heard in the history of anything. Just like in Girl in the Tower, this song is going out of its way to annoy the listener with not only the worst samples ever but probably the most incoherent ‘melody’ ever.

And it does it the whole song.

Damn you Venezuela.

898.Ashley's Song (Super Smash Bros. Brawl) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9bu0Ge25js&hd=1 Appeared in: VGMC2

This song would not be so low if it weren’t for that ****ing awful singer.

I’m not a fan of high-pitched singing in general, but holy crap this singer really hurts to listen to. It’s especially even worse towards the middle of the loop when she squeals oooh mmahhh gahhh

Also it doesn’t help that this song is trying to be hard to be ridiculously cheesy and obnoxious.

897.Fear (Area 5) (Rez) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMMWwqwRggQ&hd=1 Appeared in: VGMC2

Unlike the songs below it we have our first song that’s offensive because it does absolutely NOTHING.

Oh wait every 3 minutes there’s an occasional use of KILLER KILLER KILLER KILLER KILLER KILLER fantastic stuff.

I can’t believe I had to listen to 10 minutes of nothing.

896.Park Place (Monopoly) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGGyNT69sdY&hd=1 Appeared in: VGMC5

This song doesn’t have obnoxious singers or 10 minutes of nothing.

However I’m trying to figure out what there is to enjoy about this song... at all.

Can someone inform me please.

895.Desert Theme 2 (Reah) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Q9KUOS0ZQI&hd=1 Appeared in: VMC3

Have fun with your 10 minutes of literal nothing.

894.The Genesis (Persona 4) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_ghYuPzvqE&hd=1 Appeared in: VGMC5

Alright, I love Persona 4 and all. The final battle was pretty cool I guess.

But do P4 fans actually try to listen to this song without context I mena really.

It’s not quite as bad as the 10 minutes of nothing below it since it does do something but that loud sudden synth that plays every 5 seconds is kinda annoying.

Also there are random parts of almost nothing.

The only somewhat tolerable parts of this song are the parts at around 5:30 and 6:50 and even then the instruments still kinda hurt to listen to.

It’s a ridiculous chore to listen to this song.

893.Crumbling Castle (Ape Escape) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2uy2-eeOD8&hd=1 Appeared in: VGMC4

This song is really annoyingly repetitive. I dunno what that thing that keeps making that ridiculous song for the WHOLE SONG. But it gets more annoying to listen to the farther I get into the song.

892.Roar of the Departed Souls (Lost Odyssey) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1x_udEq5YM&hd=1 Appeared in: VGMC2

Speaking of trying too hard…

The choir trying to be EPIC in the first minute was way more annoying than ‘cool’.

The guitar part after is slightly better but not by much.

Then once the choir comes back in the song gets progressively more annoying to listen to.

“Awesome” Video Game Music indeed.

891.Gone Guru (Dead Rising) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDeThz30JtQ&hd=1 Appeared in: VGMC5

I like some rap/hip-hop songs.

However, when I first listened to this song I was seriously like “what the **** is this”.

That backing instrument is annoying to listen to and the actual rapping is really obnoxious.

I wonder what great ‘context’ I’m missing by not paying Dead Rising and hearing this song.

890.Escape from the City (Sonic Adventure 2) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6NaZrPQGfY&hd=1 Appeared in: VGMC1, 2, 5

Our first song to appear in multiple contests oh boy.

I like Sonic Adventure 2 and I have never been a fan of this song at all.

I guess it fits the stage it plays in which is probably why this song isn’t TOO low. Being shorter than the others helps also.

But seriously it’s pretty ridiculously cheesy as hell (in a bad way) and the lyrics certainly don’t help.

889.25m BGM (Super Smash Bros. Brawl) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0WEpzvYiLs&hd=1 Appeared in: VGMC3

Hahaha the person who nominated this is so hilarious.

I decided to be nice and only provide a 46 second version of this song to save you guys (and me) the pain of listening to annoyingly repetitive song that’s literally the same thing every second.

888.Ai no Uta (Pikmin) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N52Gg0hy96s&hd=1 Appeared in: VGMC2

Suffers the same problems as Ashley’s Song with it’s ridiculously obnoxious vocals this time being ridiculously saccharine as opposed to being high pitched.

At least the instruments/(lack of) backing vocals aren’t as annoying as Ashley’s Song.

887.Sickness unto Foolish Death (Silent Hill 3) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P2Bk-iCscQc&hd=1 Appeared in: VGMC2

When I first listened to this song, I thought there was actually something wrong with my speakers.

Turns out this song really wants to ear rape with you with these dumb sounds. Which sucks since the backing instruments actually sound kinda nice. (though that was probably the intent)

I guess this could work in game for the creepiness factor or something but this isn’t what this list for.

On a side note, so many songs from VGMC2, geez that must have been the worst overall year of the 5.

886.Live and Learn (Sonic Adventure 2) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9zZus_1_ag&hd=1 Appeared in: VGMC1, 2, 3

Kinda like Escape from the City with even more CHEEEEESSEEEE.

LIVE AND LEARNNN. HANGIN ON THE EDGEE OF TOMORROOOWW.

I guess I have this over City Escape since it’s a bit more amusing and I haven’t had to hear it in a recent contest.
