"A Truly Vile Song": 11 Songs People Think Are "The Worst Of All Time," And One That Caused A Debate For Being Included
Twitter: @RACH4_theSTARZ
It's not an exaggeration to say that Twitter (now X) is a bit of a flaming dumpster fire sometimes, so I've taken it upon myself to bring you the Discourse of The Week™️ myself. This time, everyone is fighting over which song(s) are "the worst of all time."
Here are 11 of the most popularly-hated songs (and one absolutely beloved song). I'm genuinely curious if you agree.
1.First up, the clip that started it all — "Home" by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros.
Here are some of its lyrics:

People DO NOT play about that song.
So, do you agree?

This buddy cop comedy is one of three Netflix action movies you need to watch (August 2025)
This month on Netflix, we're spotlighting the action comedy. What's better than mixing in a few laughs with some fight scenes and explosions? Our first movie features an actor — the funniest man alive — reprising a legendary role in Beverly Hills. Our second pick is a buddy cop movie from the '90s featuring an indelible duo. Finally, we're taking you back to 1980 to experience some blues music. All three action movies are now streaming on Netflix. Recommended Videos We also have guides to the best new movies to stream, the best movies on Netflix, the best movies on Hulu, and the best movies on Amazon Prime Video. Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F (2024) More often than not, legacy sequels fail to recapture the magic of their predecessor. Look no further than Space Jam: A New Legacy, Zoolander 2, The Exorcist: Believer, and Jaws: The Revenge as examples. Luckily for the Beverly Hills Cop franchise, it has Eddie Murphy, who reprised his iconic role as Axel Foley in the surprisingly effective fourth outing, Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F. When Axel Foley (Murphy) heads back to Los Angeles, it's personal. He's looking to reconnect with his daughter, Jane Saunders (Taylour Paige), a defense attorney. When a criminal organization zeroes in on Jane, Axel teams with her ex-boyfriend (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) and his two old friends, Billy Rosewood (Judge Reinhold) and John Taggart (John Ashton), to protect his daughter. You can't fake charisma, and when Murphy slips back into Axel's fast-talking ways, the movie soars. Stream Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F on Netflix. Rush Hour (1998) I'm unaware of the national consensus on Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker as a buddy cop duo. For me, they're top draft picks. The martial arts star and the comedic lightning rod joined forces in 1998's Rush Hour. After the kidnapping of a Chinese diplomat's daughter, Hong Kong Detective Inspector Lee (Jackie Chan) travels to America to work the case. However, the FBI does not want Lee to be involved, so they assign him to be the LAPD's problem. Enter Detective James Carter (Chris Tucker), the obnoxious and smooth-talking cop tasked with babysitting Lee. Lee and Carter initially hate each other. However, the duo realizes that their best chance of saving the little girl is to work together. From Chan's extravagant fight choreography to Carter's crisp one-liners, Rush Hour is a classic '90s comedy that remains a gold standard for chemistry between co-stars. Stream Rush Hour on Netflix. The Blues Brothers (1980) With elaborate car chases and thunderous explosions, The Blues Brothers is most definitely an action comedy. John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd star as Jake and Elwood, the Blues Brothers, based on their excellent sketch from Saturday Night Live. After being released from jail, Jake reunites with Elwood and checks in on the Catholic orphanage that raised them. Unfortunately, the orphanage will close unless they pay $5,000 in property taxes. After an epiphany, Jake and Elwood decide to reform their band, the Blues Brothers, and organize a concert to raise money. Along the way, the Blues Brothers are chased by Neo-Nazis, rival bands, police, and a sadistic woman. The music is great, the chases are exciting, and the laughs are nonstop. What more could you want? Stream Blues Brothers on Netflix.

Tom Brady Jokes He Feels 'Kind of Old' as His Statue Is Unveiled by the Patriots Outside of Gillette Stadium
NEED TO KNOW The New England Patriots unveiled a 12-foot-tall statue of Tom Brady outside of Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass., on Saturday, Aug. 9 The retired star quarterback told fans gathered at the unveiling in Patriot Place Plaza that he never imagined "being made of bronze and frozen in time" He also said, "I feel extremely honored, deeply grateful and, if I'm being honest, kind of old"Tom Brady is being honored for being an unshakable force on the field — fittingly with a 12-foot-tall bronze statue now standing proud outside of Gillette Stadium. The seven-time Super Bowl champion, 48, was immortalized at Patriot Place Plaza on Saturday, Aug. 9, when the New England Patriots organization and CEO Robert Kraft unveiled a towering statue in his likeness ahead of the team's 2025 home game against the Washington Commanders. Kraft previously announced the honor during Brady's 2024 Patriots Hall of Fame induction ceremony, before making it official on Saturday. After Kraft, 84, spoke about his franchise's former star quarterback, he and Brady stood up to watch the unveiling, as flames shot up behind the statue. Brady then examined the statue from the back, gave Kraft a hug and shared some remarks with fans in attendance. "Right now, I feel extremely honored, deeply grateful and, if I'm being honest, kind of old," Brady joked during the unveiling ceremony outside of the stadium that was his home turf from 2000 to 2019. "I'm also a little surprised because usually they don't build statues until you're really old... It's not every day you get a statue, at least not one like this," he continued. "Seeing myself as a statue isn't something I could've ever imagined growing up. When I was drafted, I just hoped to make the team. I never dreamed I'd be standing here two-and-a-half decades later, made of bronze and frozen in time. It actually feels pretty appropriate, given my 40-yard dash time." Brady called the moment an "incredible honor," joking that it marked the "first time" in his life that Boston sportswriters would describe him as "chiseled."

He then thanked the Kraft family for their "leadership," his former teammates and coaches for their efforts, and his family — which includes children Jack, 17, Benjamin, 15, and Vivian, 12. "I'm sure most of them are mumbling under their breath right now, 'Yeah, we love you, but a statue?' " Brady joked. "In the end, this statue isn't just for Pats fans," he later said. "It'll also give Jets fans something to throw beers at as they leave the stadium every year. Probably in the second quarter. Maybe the third." Brady then said that, ultimately, the statue wasn't about just "one guy," but rather a "team and a commitment to being great together." He continued: "To think that a kid from California might someday travel here to this plaza, stop, gaze at this work of art and say, 'Who the hell is that guy?' I've said this before, but I want to say it again: I'm humbled and honored to have been part of this organization for 20 incredible years. You guys shaped my life and the life of my family. And for that, I'm forever grateful." As for Kraft, the team's owner called the statue a way to "immortalize" a man he considered to be the "greatest NFL player of all time." "Tom was the 199th draft pick, who not only transformed himself into the greatest quarterback the league has ever seen, but also helped transform the Patriots into a 20-year dynasty," Kraft said. "He demanded excellence of himself and made everyone around him better. Tom wasn't just the face of our franchise, he was the true heartbeat." Brady played for the Patriots for two decades after being selected 199th in the 2000 NFL Draft. Between then and 2020 — when he left New England for free agency and joined the Tampa Bay Buccaneers — Brady earned six Super Bowl championships with the franchise. He later led the Bucs to a Super Bowl of their own in 2021, before his retirement in 2023. According to the Patriots organization, the newest addition to Gillette Stadium makes Brady the first player in franchise history to earn the honor of having a bronze statue standing at the location. Per ESPN, the statue was created by a local sculptor and its granite base was quarried in Vermont. Read the original article on People
