Well, ok, maybe not quite Tongue

A few scientists used a survey to figure out the most and least desirable elements in music, and combined all the least desirable elements into one 20 minute long monstrosity. Walmart, holiday jingles, children's choirs, opera-rap, bagpipes, and cheesy electronic drums are just some of the elements in this amazing freakshow. The best part, though, is that many passages in this song reminded me of prog anthems that we hold near and dear. Anyone else think so?

A while back I made the same post only to discover it was made earlier.
Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal.

As I recall, it's not really a song, just a bunch of short snippets sticked together. There were some parts that sounded quite nice though.

Argh, doesn't anybody ever look at the dates of links before they post them?
 
However, I will always be a big fan of the opera rap.

I started listening to it once years ago, it wasn't really annoying, it just got boring.

The only thing that reminds me of this is the transitions to the various annoying sections

The interesting thing is that all three of us posted different links about the same thing. Oh well, at least I've introduced a few newcomers to this song. SmileThe worst song in the world must be heard!
