Songs That Should Not Exist. Top Story - September 2025.
There are so many songs I could add to this list. 1. “Friday” – Rebecca Black Listen here “Friday” is the aural equivalent of stepping barefoot on a Lego. Every note is a testament to what happens when ambition meets no discernible talent. The autotuned vocals are robotic, the lyrics read like a diary of a caffeinated thirteen-year-old, and the beat is an unrelenting metronome of despair. Listening to this song is simply unpleasant. It is an experience of existential torment wrapped in a pop veneer.

I Will Find You
Introduction This snippet is from a Seven Days In post that I did in 2013, when I discovered this amazing song: It's one of those things. I have lots of albums I've not listened to, Today, for the first time, I decided to play "Fireships" by Peter Hamill and was stunned by the first song "I Will Find You", an amazing alien splicing of Blondie's "Presence Dear" and The Police's "Every Breath You Take". You haven't a clue whether the protagonist is a love-struck, caring admirer or an evil, devious stalker, with the latter being the favoured outcome. I've included the song just because it really is a case of you don't know what you're missing.

When Talent is Non-Existent
When I saw Sam Spinelli's challenge, asking us to name and shame our five least favourite songs, I got very excited. I can be a grumpy, judgemental, opinionated ass at the best of times (ask Ruth, the good lady wife!), but when it comes to music, I've learned to try and keep schtum when I think something is terrible. All because I'm just trying to be a better person (My Name is Earl opening ref, anyone?).

Some Favourite Labels
Introduction When I was first getting into music, there were certain labels that had a familial feel to them, and seemed not to be part of the mainstream, although they were owned by someone like EMI, Warner or Sony.

10 Nostalgic Rock Radio Hits From the 2000s
When I was growing up, my area had an alternative rock station that played a variety of rock hits, indie-ish tracks and songs from local bands. I loved listening to this station and looked forward to it every time I went on a long car ride. In fact, I even imagined driving around aimlessly just so I could listen to this station when I turned sixteen. Evidently, I wasn't familiar with the concept of "gas money."

Audio Visual Production – My Experience with Stage Rental Toronto. AI-Generated.
When I first started working in audio visual production, I quickly learned that every event depends on the right foundation.

One thing has always stood out to me: careful planning and reliable stage equipment are at the heart of every successful production.
