LOL ASHLEY FUCKING TISDALE

I have to admire spamming to that level. That's some major spamming, that has to rival the Fuse Triangles.

[Daughter.of.Rage.and.Love]

Yay, I guess, but Ashley Tisdale? Britney Spears? Taylor Swift twice? Nuh-uh

[Brian]

really? Taylor Swift, Adam Lambert and Ashley Tisdale did better than American Idiot??? :verymad:

[Brandon R.]

Someone tell me what the fuck I'm looking at here.

Are you serious? TISDALE? ADAM LAMBERT?

dude. no.

[Nikki_Nimrod]

oh god, Ashley Tisdale? really?!

wooow. Well, i'm glad Green Day at least made the list, however fucked up it may be! lol

[Tiffx]

WHAT THE FUCKK?

[Angela.]

omfg.

My exact reaction. How in the fuck did American Idiot not get the #1 spot?! AI deserves to be #1. And why isn't 21stCB the #1 spot, as well?

[Jinjonator]

Most of these seem to be the result of recent popularity, more than anything else. I mean ffs, Britney fucking Spears and Ashley fucking Tisdale and Taylor fucking Swift ahead of Green Day?! And Michael Jackson's good, but, no disrespect intended, you know he got on there because his...well...death.

Well, with Ashley Tisdale, it's purely her stans! The album flopped, it wasn't popular, that's what makes this so hilarious and rage inducing at the same time!

And idk why but I laughed so hard at "because his...well...death" :lol: :lol:

Oh you know. Because you have to choose one or the other.

Anyway, has anyone listened to Ashley Tisdale?

[Alan86]

MJ's Invincible album was complete rubbish. There is only one reason that is top of the chart and its nothing to do with music.

The Two albums that were actually big this decade are no. 9 and no. 10 on that list. American Idiot and Hybrid Theory

[Angela.]

No... what I meant is that I didn't get how AI didn't get the #1 spot for album of the decade, and how 21stCB didn't get #1 for album of 2009.

And I've heard bits and pieces of Ashley Tisdale songs in commercials. I thought the clips sucked.

[Greenday_Aussie]

Possibly the biggest fail ever?

After all, Billboard called Nickelback the best band of the decade. Billboard are a fucking joke.

Nickleback are a joke too

[gusgd]

Invincible? If Michael hadn't died, nobody would remember it exists.

Ashley? ADAM LAMBERT?

[Vespertine]

This is SO depressing.

[Sanity Loan]

Adam Lambert's album has been out for like not even a month. It must be "pretty good" to have gotten on the list of greatest albums of the decade

[Greenday_Aussie]

I think Nickelback do deserve one award though. Worst song opening of the decade. "MY best friend gave me the best advice" Why do I hate it? I Dont know, but that songs is a steaming pile of shit. Like most of theirs. I only got into 2 or 3 of their songs (well one isnt techniqually Nickelback, that Hero song from Spiderman 1 is actually fantastic.) Someday wasnt bad either.

[Jinjonator]

Nickelback got Band of the Decade? What. The. Fuck. I mean, the only song of theirs that's really even good is How You Remind Me (that's Nickelback, right?). The rest is meh.

[poisonoak]

the others r basically all pop...2 for taylor wtf!

[Mar]

Possibly the biggest fail ever?

After all, Billboard called Nickelback the best band of the decade. Billboard are a fucking joke.

To be fair, though, that was ONLY based on sales/radio airplay, not the editorial staff's opinion on the quality of the music. It's the American public who are stupid, not Billboard. Much like in this case...it's the spammers who are stupid, not the Billboard staff!

In terms of pure awfulness, I prefer LOOK AT THIS PHOTOGRAPH EVERY TIME I DO IT MAKES ME LAUGH WHY DID OUR EYES GET SO RED? And now, for the existential question of the decade...

WHAT THE HELL IS ON JOEY'S HEAD?

Poetry, people. Just beautiful. :'(

[*Green_girl*]
