Worst Songs Ever: Chart-Topping Disasters
Andrew Robertson
7 episodes
2 days ago
Welcome to "Worst Songs Ever," the podcast where we dive into hits from every era, unearthing musical disasters that inexplicably topped the charts. Each episode, one of us picks a song they believe is a true abomination, and we all give it a listen before either agreeing that's it's cringe-worthy or arguing its merits. Tracks from a bygone era, 80s ballads, baffling 90s boy bands, or a head-scratching modern hits, nothing is off-limits. But we're not just here to roast—it's a celebration of musical oddities and pop cultural relics.

Why Garth Brooks' 'Friends in Low Places' Is Both Loved and Loathed in Pop Country

In this episode of Worst Songs Ever, Andrew, Rob, and Brennan dive deep into the country classic "Friends in Low Places" by Garth Brooks. Rob, who selected this song, shares the psychological torment he endured during his first year at The Citadel, where a less-than-amicable roommate played the track on an endless loop. A psychological warfare campaign worthy of The Lords of Discipline, Rob discusses how this sonic assault led to his lasting disdain for the song.

Meanwhile, Andrew and Brennan take a different perspective. As they dissect the lyrics and melodies, they find themselves not only appreciating the song for what it is but even starting to like it. The trio debates Garth Brooks' intentions, his talents as a singer-songwriter, and his keen understanding of the country genre. They also draw comparisons to other legendary tracks like "Lord, It's Hard to Be Humble," "The Gambler," and "Family Tradition," exploring where "Friends in Low Places" fits within the pantheon of iconic country anthems.
