#5 - "Shakira" - Shakira
When your strongest single is the nonsense wailing of Can't Remember to Forget You, you just might not be up to scratch, I'm afraid. Who'd have thought that having to write "Shakira - Shakira" would ever be such an unpleasant reminder?


#4 - "V" - Maroon 5
If an album makes you think "god I miss Payphone" then it's probably not going to be anybody's favourite. Anyone who saw them (I am still maintaining that they are a band and not just an Adam Levine vanity project) perform at Saturday Night Live will have cringed and died laughing at the howl at the very top of 'Animals'.


#3 - "With a Little Help From my Fwends" - The Flaming Lips
I've been aware that frontman Wayne Coyne has been a SLIGHT bit of a prick ever since his public fall-out with Erykah Badu, but I wasn't quite expecting that ego to be put towards a disastrous Beatles remake with Ke$ha and Miley Cyrus. I don't know who I feel more offended for - Ke$ha for being duped into it, or the fab four themselves.


#2 - "Paula" - Robin Thicke
The perfect definition of fremdscham. Or schadenfreude. I don't know. It takes german psychologists to evaluate this dirge.


#1 - "Sex and Love" - Enrique Iglesias
It's pretty much all about the former, which is fine, but at least have the decency to get your dick out, Enrique.
