"Pop has embarked on a never-ending race to find the bits of actual food in Ke$ha's glitter-puke. Taylor Swift is fake-surprised-acting her way through her "difficult third album that doubles as a TMZ slambook" phase. Rap is like A Night At The Roxbury, only somehow less funny. Pitchfork continues to push Wild Nothing and Cloud Nothings and other bands that could also feasibly have the word "nothing" in their title, or at least in the description of their musical aesthetic. Also: we're just going to say the words "Neon Trees" here so Google has a record of them existing in two years time. In honor of the year that was, we'll list the 20 worst songs of 2010 until the holidays roll around--or at least until we all know how to Dougie."
It is happening again.
The only end of year list that matters.

I’m hearting this for the Taylor Swift snark, but why you gotta keep harshing on Nicole Scherzinger, Maura?!?!? I LOVE HER.

Actually, the Cloud Nothings tape I have is pretty decent. But I get the point.
