    The Final!!!!!


    Nominations now require 10 votes to win!

    No need for a reason, though people are always welcome to give theirs. People have been giving their reasons all the way through which is brilliant and why I'm still not enforcing it! :D


    This is the final and a winner will be called by at the absolute latest of 8pm tomorrow evening. That gives us a full 24 hours to hit the mark, which i'm quite sure we will do :D

    Please be very upstanding for our 2 finalists as they duke it out to be crowned the WORST song of all time!




    Reminder :: You are voting for the WORST song in this match



    Final Match

    BrokeNCYDE - Freaxxx

    Vs

    Axel F - Crazy Frog








    There was only one good thing about Crazy Frog. You could tell someone was a complete idiot if they used it as their ringtone, and then avoid them like the plague.



    BrokeNCYDE - Freaxxx Vs Axel F - Crazy Frog



    Take your time with this one folks. Listen to each song intently. The power is in your hands!

    BrokeNCYDE - Freaxxx Vs Axel F - Crazy Frog - The Frog must win now it put out Richie Kavanagh.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    Never heard of Freaxxx before so gave it a listen and managed 35 seconds. I'm still going for Crazy Frog though because, it's f^cking Crazy Frog and is the worst recorded output ever and anyone who bought it should hang their heads in shame.


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    In a shocking twist, I listened to both songs there again and Freaxxx has kind of grown on me...

    Look I think there's far worse songs that were eliminated earlier in the competition (including both that got knocked out in the Semis), but between these two for worst song of all-time is...

    Crazy Frog - Axel F

    I vote Crazy Frog. I've never heard that BrokeNsyde until this competition and it is aural excrement, however I was subjected to Crazy frog's ear-acid warbling for years -ringtones on the phones of morons, blasting out of the windows of boy-racer's pratmobiles etc. and I want retribution dammit :mad:



    By tomorrow morning I want that ****ing Frog sleeping with the fishes!


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,670 ✭✭✭✭Tell me how


    This really isn't a competition in this round for me.

    Crazy Frog, the hateful little b*stard for the win. No hesitation.

    And a worthy winner to be fair.

    BrokeNCYDE - Freaxxx Vs Axel F - Crazy Frog

    It's amazing how one sound effect can destroy an otherwise decent (if dated) soundtrack. I imagine if you wanted to drive someone crazy in solitary confinement this would be a good way to do so.

    According to Wikipedia it reached No. 1 in 14 different countries. All those people who put it there need to take a long hard look at themselves.

    Particularly the French record buying public who put it at No. 1 for 13 weeks :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: It is the third best selling single in France in the 21st century.

    It is definitely worthy of the title of worst song of all time.


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,362 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    Just decided to read the Wikipedia page for BrokeNCYDE

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brokencyde

    The terms used to describe the band and this song in particular in the Critical Reception section are exquisite!





    And in the interest of fairness, this is the wiki for crazy frog, but it doesn't have the same witty critical reception :)

    This is strange, I think the freak song is the worst of the 2 but I never heard of it until an hour ago and Im confident I will never hear it again. The frog song on the other hand, got so much airplay and was a smash hit, given that reason I believe it deserves to win this contest.

    My vote, Crazy frog.

    Before i vote is there a 12 inch version of these songs just to put myself through further torture.

    If the winning act have a twitter account we should tweet our congratulations to their account with a link to the thread.

    It wont mean anything to Crazy Frog if you do it, but it would mean the world to BrokeNCYDE I would say

    Axel F - Crazy Frog

    It's not only irritating but it's one of the very few pieces of "music" that is capable of sending me into a rage.

    Crazy frog, every time Ive had the misfortune of hearing it over the years is more than enough reason to vote it . And every time I've heard a retard use it as a ring tone is another reason to vote for. As for that other shiiit song Ive never heard it before and never will hopefully.

    Don't do it. I listened to 20 seconds of each and I'm traumatised.

    While Brokencyde are undoubtedly horrifically bad, they probably think they're actual musicians as they've produced something original. Now admittedly, in an existence of infinite parallel universes the chances of anyone producing something that comes close to being as bad as that is infinitesimally small, but on this very minor point their output possibly has some merit.

    Crazy Frog, on the other hand, have taken someone else's work and bastardised it to such an extent that Harold Faltermeyer has probably disowned the original at this stage in case anyone thinks he had a hand in the Crazy Frog version. What's worse, millions of people paid for this sh*t! This song is proof of the rapid decline of civilisation and has led to the current lockdown. Coronavirus is merely a cover story concocted by governments throughout the world to keep people away from recording studios in an effort to ensure that nothing like this is ever unleashed on an unsuspecting public again. So you know what you need to do - stay at home and vote for Crazy Frog. It's the only way to save humanity from ourselves.

    A very worthy winner/loser.

    Well done Rikand, it was worth the PTSD :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 813 ✭✭✭Macdarack


    Jesus christ I've listened to that Friday song, what have I done, Friday Friday Friday..........
    That fast food song, who the fuuuck (mc gregors sister style) came out with that, and who backed it, who the fuuuck allowed it ! They're fuuuck in adults.
    Dj casper is a poet laureate compared to most here BTW.

    Didn't know it was a cover version actually. Learn something new every day.


  • Registered Users, Subscribers Posts: 47,311 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    Rikand, that was an epic and really fun contest, thanks for running it. While there's some awful muck out there, I think we found a worthy "winner", although I would have liked to see Richie Kavanagh in the final to give it a bit more of a run for its money.

    Speaking of Irish 'classics', I totally forgot to nominate this :(

    My vote, Crazy frog.

    I fcuking legitimately heard Axel F only an hour ago. Maybe it's recency bias or I'm losing my mind but a real wtf moment. Anyway, Crazy Frog managed to hit the number one spot in some countries. That is not ok. I would have voted for it.
