QUOTE
Composer Dave Soldier and artists Komar & Melamid took an online poll on their website, and then used the data to scientifically compose “The Most Unwanted Song” of all time. The song is twenty-two minutes and features instruments like bagpipes, tubas and the banjo, with political slogans, advertising jingles and cowboy lyrics. They manage to translate into orchestral rock-band church-music punctuated with high pitched sounds and abrupt changes in pace and mood that they claim:

“Fewer than 200 individuals of the world’s total population will enjoy this.”

It's actually *not* terrible; it's pretty funny. Just wait til the rapping opera singer starts.

Just wait til they get to Yom Kippour, Ramadan, and Halloween. I think Ramadan is my favorite.

How do you even begin to convince a legitimate, serious opera singer to do this? "Hey, we like your voice a lot, can you please sing this song that has been voted Most Unwanted? Oh, and it entails opera-rap."

^ I don't even know. Two of the guys involved are artists so maybe they were like do it for the love of art shrug.gif

So I'm almost done with it (I'm almost at 20 minutes, OMG) and it gets really pretty for some strange reason.

^ It gets really surreal at points but then it levels out into something coherent.

Yeah you're right, at around 17:55 it's pretty.

Now I'm waiting for something to make me shit my pants like at 13:23.

EDIT// Alright, so I'm done now. It wasn't too bad, just so bad at times it was funny. At least it was intentionally bad XD.

Did you check out the paintings version of this?

The fist minute was actually good.

I like the rapping opera singer, but the music she's singing to is sick.gif

after rapping opera.. it gets good up until about 3:30.

3:30ish - 4:30 was horrendous

4:30 - 4:45 was endurable..

I don't want to listen anymore sad.gif
