How about "F.U.R.B." which was a response to Eamon's song by "Frankee" who claimed to an ex girlfriend.

Take all the awfulness that was Eamon's song, the magnify that by being a knock off song with worse lyrics.

Ok, time for me to cause some trouble. But what the hell, it's VFTW, right? So if I can take it, I should be able to dish it out. You expressed such disdain for Five For Fighting and 100 Years, which, by the way, is one of the few emo songs I can tolerate. In the same token, VFTW has pretty much been a big lovefest for Josiah Leming, who also sings in that same annoying falsetto and plays the same crappy keyboard-oriented emo. My question is, what the hell's the difference? If Five for Fighting started posting on the VFTW boards, would his turds suddenly turn to rainbows?

Ok, rant over. Back to mocking Lambert and such.

I don't know if it's good or bad that I only know 4 of the songs on this list... 3 of which come from the Simpsons. Talentless ho-bags.

The only Five For Fighting song I know is that superman one, and I kind of like it. I never heard the one on this list.

This does sort of put things into perspective. Yes, Jessica Simpson isn't a fantastic singer, and she does go over the top, but she's better than Kellie Pickler, and maybe about as talented as Carrie Underwood.

And while it seems like the "Five for Fighting" guy has only written one song which he writes new sappy words for every once in a while... he's still a better singer than Kris Allen and he does actually write new words. Just listen to one of his songs, that's enough, use it like a Bozz Scaggs make-out song.

I guess I really do follow Idol for the massive train wrecks. But it seems they've decided that X Factor style train wrecks are no longer wanted on Idol. Too bad.

Oh Ashley Simpson, you're so edgy with your cliche "punk" outfit. And the way you shoved those fruit loops... SO ANGRY.

OMG I hate the (non-animated) Simpsons.

AFAIK, Pieces of Me, as well as most of the other pieces of crap that Ashlee Simpson performed were written by none other than Kara DioGuardi. She hasn't shown her mug on TV yet back then.

Wow. It's nice to see Ashlee's old nose again. She looks completely generic and unrecognizable now.

Fender, Five for Fighting is not emo. I'm not sure if you know what emo means then. But they're not it.

I don't like all of Josiah's songs, just some of them. But Josiah doesn't sing in an awful, irritating falsetto for his entire songs. So there's really no comparison in my book. It's much more about the FFF guy's voice sucking ass than anything else.

^^^^^

annoying singing - check.

lyrics that tug at your heart strings - check.

tempo that puts me to sleep - checkity check check.

little or no electric guitar - check

Actually, its that last one that makes it less annoying than it otherwise would be. Emo music is a complete waste of a great electric guitar.

But that song sure as hell sounds like emo to me.
