"Good" Bad VS "Bad" Bad Music 

evil brad be like: grood taste in music

seeing brad completely broken by a children's choir singing about shopping at walmart over a seasame street type beat is really something

I think Head by Island Boys is one of the funniest bad songs of all time. These 2 idiots accidentally made one of the most entertaining pieces of music I have ever heard.

Nothing like a Brad Taste video to make a bad day worse

New stream idea: The Most Unwanted Song, but 20 dollars starts it from the beginning. No giving up.

put the "AT WALMART" in The Most Unwanted Song on your soundboard i beg

RU-vid version of The Most Unwanted Song that includes the sheet music is beyond hysterical

Re: the "Most Wanted" and "Most Unwanted" songs: the artists collected statistical data on what musical instruments, voices, subject matter, music forms and styles people liked and didn't like, and compiled it all into the two songs. the full statistics are printed in the liner notes but for "Most Wanted", a male/female duet power ballad with a saxophone solo was found to be the most optimal and irresistible combination based on the data; the song is subtitled "(A Musical Work That Will Be Unavoidably And Uncontrollably "Liked" By 72 ± 12% Of Listeners)". meanwhile for "Most Unwanted", people reported that they hated commercial jingles, opera, childsong, rap, politics, bagpipes, banjo, etc. so the artists threw all of it in there. Its subtitle is "(Fewer Than 200 Individuals Of The World's Total Population Will Enjoy This)".This album was remastered in 2019 and even pressed to vinyl, if you're a total weirdo who needs a copy. The data itself was collected online in 1996 and the songs were recorded/released in 1997, so that gives you a picture of how the countries polled for the statistics felt about music (only major Western countries had access to the internet at that time, and in those countries it was mainly White well-off families that were jumping online. Research the saturation of AOL Online discs, you'll get the full picture of what demographics were/weren't online at the time.) In the summer of 1997, Notorious B.I.G.'s "Hypnotize" was huge. Spice Girls and Third Eye Blind were leading the charts. White society was very vocal against rap for shallow-minded racist reasons; against opera because it was too "high brow and pretentious" for them; and against country because of the anti-poor "white trash is beneath me" classism. Also, the concept of genre-blending was still a very novel idea (Mariah Carey's "Fantasy" remix with Ol' Dirty Bastard was A Concern for some people), and the concept of "enjoying things ironically" really wasn't widespread at all, so this experiment was framed as taking people's sonic desires to their extremes in a serious, yet tongue-in-cheek manner. Long story short, the composers were saying, "this is what you asked for so why don't you like this? why is this so alien to you?" i would honestly be curious for a re-do of the whole experiment. As a whole, a larger portion of the world is not only online but conscious of each others' societal differences to a degree. the monoculture that fueled the US entertainment industry has radically been destabilized. our thoughts on genres of music (and on other races) have definitely matured in the ~30 years since. there'd still be xenophobic issues (like the downvoting of several genres under the "urbano" umbrella) but in my eyes it'd be a more honest reflection than the one we got, collected from so narrow a subject pool.

I sat through that whole 21 minute song and started crying because i felt trapped. I legit couldn't handle that song emotionally.

Let's make an official rule that "Lazarus" by David Bowie should only be covered if you're about to die.

Wolf in Sheep's Clothing is horrendusly edgy, yes, but by the sheer fact of how catchy and good the melodies are, I can't give it a zero. It feels more like the singer is playing a character rather than just being his trashy self, like Ronnie Radke for example.

I honestly love Wolf In Sheep's Clothing both for nostalgic Gen Z edgy fanbase reasons and bc it tries so unbelievably hard to be cool that I find it really funny. I always loop that break part bc it's so funny to me

I owe my life to Brad. I got in a horrible car crash and i was in 6 month coma. The nurse walked in and changed the channel to Brad's stream. I awoke from my coma the nurse was shocked I turned the stream off and went back to my coma.

The Most Unwanted Song had me fucking CRYING laughing. I want to know absolutely everything about the making of that song, I have far too many questions about it for them to go unanswered.

We didn’t really need all those filler songs, we’re all just here for The People’s Choice Music!

brad never fails to make my insides tingle with his beefy and stern voice

Seeing Brad being broken by Unwanted Song made me lose my fucking mind. It really just never ends.

I've unironically listened to the complete "most unwanted song" multiple times. just brilliant

The concept of good-bad VS bad-bad originated in a cinema magazine from the 60s in France, they called it "Navet Vs Nanard", basically "turnip VS funny piece of junk", the "turnip" being the bad-bad one. French have simple words for these concepts, so it's shorter to say.

The Unwanted Song vs The Wanted Song is SUCH a great example. Shows that people dont know what they actually want until they actually experience it (at least if they have an open mind, lol)

So glad you heard the Most Unwanted Song. Legit one of the funniest songs ever made, it lives in my head rent free. Loved seeing chat spamming "AT WALMART"

i swear to god, that 20 minute song works as both a torture song and a trigger for sleeper agents

the most unwanted song is what tally hall sounds like to me

7:21 that whole segment with the children singing was a banger

We listened to the most unwanted song in my band class lunch break once and our band director could not stop laughing. Them kids casually singing about Walmart and guns had me rolling for no reason 😭

I don't think it's really fair to have First Of October in this. The whole gimmick is they write, record and mix an album in a single day every October 1st. That means they have at most an hour to make each song from scratch, while the other people on the list almost certainly worked on their songs for a considerably longer amount of time. Yes I am a fan of both of the content creators involved and inherently biased, but I think my point stands.

The most unwanted song made me feel like I was lobotomized twice

I gotta say, "No her with no" has the same hilarious clean-version energy as "You nah you nah you nah you"💀

37:03 "ya get the point" - "alright, I get the point" is so good

"ill never be able to hear this song the same again because ive listened to the gay remix so many times" is probably the most relateable thing Brad has ever said XD

I’ve recommended the most unwanted song for the longest of time , glad to see it get a reaction

"The Most Wanted Song" sounds like a song a kindergarten teacher made their students. It's like that one band of those girls who made music because their dad made them and they sucked, but a lot of famous musicians liked it. Vibe wise.

This man has introduced me to the most heinous music in existence.

omg i completely forgot about the unwanted song 😭 i discovered that song when i was in high school and it was crazy 😭

5:51 This is unironically my favorite price of shitpost art that has ever been made and not a day goes by where I don't reference it Edit: i forgot to mention the best part, which is that this is an actual fucking arrangement that was played live. In front of actual people. This was performed. And people saw it. Live.

Brad's edited in covers of the songs to avoid copyright is my favorite part lol

I love harsh noise. Sometimes I'm literally so mad/distressed that choruses, chords and lyrics come across cringy and feel like there downplaying my current issues. Noise has that bitter resentment in a distilled sound, that I can sleep to in trying times. It functions the same as Ambient Music. It's about Textures and Atmosphere. As dumb as it sounds, I prefer Vererology over Pulse Demon, despite them being both "the same". I like the Industrial side of Vernerology, and from my memory Pulse Demon has more high end that actually does hurt my ears. Besides that, in general Noise can be a powerful compositional technique if done right, like World's End Girlfriends album Hurtbreak Wonderland combining Orchestral Pieces with Noise, or Uboa's album The Origin of My Depression giving the Noise some more context.

37:04 Love how streaming brad agreed with editing Brad that he got the point

Thank you Brad for reminding me about the most unwanted song. The best example of good bad music. Its been nearly 20 years and i still lose it to the soprano rapping

Didn't expect to see "Abacab" by Genesis in here since it's a guilty pleasure of mine, always liked it a lot as an album and always liked that they wanted to experiment more with it.

Brad singing Dance Monkey is something I didn't know I needed honestly

Dance Monkey came to my mind first as 'bad bad music'

Ive totally heard those kids sing about holidays in walmart before. I wonder if this is its origins or if it was just a sample? I think your concept videos are your best because I always feel like I learn something soon.

I find enjoyment in Merzbow due to the interesting sensations his music causes. Listening through Ultra Marine Blues all the way through factory resets your eardrums and makes you feel very lucid. It's a pleasant experience to me. I can completely understand that it is not for everyone though. It won't click for some, and that's fine.

okay, but I actually enjoy "wolf in sheeps clothing". yes, it's bad, but I can't listen to it without being reminded about my huge 2016 opsession with undertale. this song is such a good childhood memory that I simply can't hate it

Brad never fails to make my life a videogame 😁

“We Wanted Change” is my go-to track when I want to annoy my kids, I love it

04:40 As someone who never leaves their musical comfort zone, I found this song extremely enjoyable and fun to listen to.

bro seeing people just not like set it off makes me realize how little people actually like their weird lyrics

Its always going to be a good video when Brad starts the video saying he forgot to record

I think the most unwanted song section is the hardest I’ve laughed in a long time

Idc what brad says I will still love Wolf in Sheeps clothing/Set It Off

I think pink guy's pink season is a great example of good bad music. It's intentionally bad, and the entertainment comes from just how blatantly absurd it is

The most unwanted song is something I'd have played in my freshman year of high school to be quirky lol

Sad they left out Arbor Day in The Most Unwanted Song

Bro what you talking about Woodpecker #1 is the best thing to listen while studying. I love the whole album when I sleep. So peaceful. 😊😊

crazy how Brad singing worth it genuinely sounds better than YK Osiris

Woodpecker is a classic. One of the coolest experiences I've ever had with music was like 5 years ago I turned off all the lights in my room, laid down, put on Pulse Demon and my entire brain turned into that texture. You imagine insane landscapes when you immerse yourself into it. It's so awesome and extreme i don't know why you didn't get anything out of it.

G Eazy could make SAMIDOT but Kendrick Lamid could never make Guala Guala

I genuinely love Wolf In Sheeps Clothing cause I have nostalgia of typing it into the Roblox chat and “singing” for my Roblox girlfriend (I was 8 and a lesbian 😭)

41:12 I was a line cook and cashier at a fast-casual restaurant. My General Manager loved EDM and was a festival guy so he wasn't a fan of Ariana Grande, but he fucking LOVED Dance Monkey for some reason. It was added into the playlist that went onto our kitchen Bluetooth speaker and played several times a day in the back for months. Every time it came on he would stop what he was doing and sing or dance to it. Funny guy. I don't hate the song because I always think of Sean jamming out to it whenever I hear it.

brad never fails to make “good” bad content 🥰

the most unwanted song feels like they boiled down the 2nd half of EATEOT into 20 minutes, but removed all the distortion

On the Prowl changed my life

watching brad protest whenever he hears that simpsons hit and run incidental music ass beat over and over again doesn't get old

The Most Unwanted Song felt like the predecessor to DistantCry

Brad never fails to make good content

Wolf in sheeps clothing is a great song imo, like yeah is corny but i got memories man 😭

i'm so happy brad finally had to sit through the most unwanted song, i wanted to send it in as a song request but i also want to afford rent and food

I love watching your videos while at work, they're very funny. They get me through those long night shifts.

I feel like the most Unwanted Song is Freiza's personal hellscape in song form

Everytime somebody listens to merzbow and assumes it’s representative of all noise music i cry a lil bit

That Merzbow song... i first heard that song on the radio a few years ago, believe it or not. it was on a local college station. at first, i thought "why are they playing static? is the station off the air?" i then shazamed the harsh noise and it told me it was Merzbow lol i tried listening to it while taking an online test. I DON'T RECOMMEND DOING THAT AT ALL

yoooo i didn’t know you had a channel loved you on hivemind

Man, this whole video was such a trip. Your cut-ins where future Brad interacts with past Brad to sing over the copywritten songs were GOLDEN.

Someone has to have dropped acid and listened to the Unwanted Song that was a trip without even being high or drunk at all

I USED TO WATCH THE UNDERTALE EDITS TO WOLF IN SHEEPS CLOTHING

OMG unwanted song is actually the funniest thing ive experienced on youtube

So Wolf in Sheep's Clothing is in my music playlist, I probably skipped it most of the time but I still liked it. So that's why my meme ego's bad.

29:49 i am ashamed to say that even without lyrics on screen, I knew the song off by heart and found myself singing in my head. i had a VERY strange phase in 2019-2021.

Brads the type of dude to facetime himself in the middle of the video

Omg that fuckin RU-vid comment and reaction for Fantano reviewing *Songs for the Blind* is so dorky that it's weirdly wholesome.

i just absolutely love the production and songwriting on woodpecker, it is truly a modern classic

MOST UNWANTED SONG MENTIONED 🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅 DO YOUR HOLIDAY SHOPPING AT WALMART

The Most Unwanted Song broke me down further with every transition, it was the beat switch after the “Halloween” verse that finally did me in, I’ve been laughing for a solid 10 minutes now

Am I crazy, or were both those First of October songs good? The first is a decent country rock number, and the second is a good throwback to early soft rock.

I hadn’t heard that Unwanted Song in over a decade but the children’s choir part with random holidays pops in my head constantly

Brads pop champagne cover is spot on

Keeping warm in a Wisconsin blizzard with some Brad Taste 🥶

We need more of Brad's beautiful covers.

28:28 i cant lie “playin football, im trouble they gave me the ball and i fumbled” is one of the funniest things I’ve ever heard

it’s so impressive seeing how brad can still come up with new ways to ruin my night 🙌

Another good bad song would be pink cellphone by deftones. It’s a very interesting experience and has a lot of weird parts ( especially the end ) but is a song I wouldn’t put on my playlist

Brad called Whats Up one of the greatest songs of all time? Brad closeted lesbian confirmed

bad day for first of october enjoyers

Good-Bad: The Left Rights - I'M ON CRACK Bad-Bad: The Left Rights - I'M ON CRACK

I love set it off wolf in sheeps clothing lol. I was obsessed with it as an emo teen and if it comes up I’ll listen to it and sing it, idk. I like the rhythm of it. I agree the lyrics suck haha

I wiped out in the middle of the street on my skateboard during the recording of this lmao

Noise can be more about the technique/performance than the actual recorded material. But yeah it takes itself way too seriously 😂

Would unironically switch Brads choice for good bad and bad bad. Woodpecker slaps!
