I like rap, and country (especially the Golden Age), orchestral music, Scottish bagpipe music, ambient... in other words, the most despised genres of music. (Okay, not Christian contemporary.) I know this about myself. So qwantz, that guy who writes

Wow, I heard about this on an NPR show a while ago, but they only played an excerpt. I'm glad to finally hear the real thing in its entirety.

I just love how the "Most unwanted" song is so much better than the "Most wanted" for all its overt annoyingness. How can an operatic soprano rapping about being a cowboy (or the ten other things going on in that song) be a bad thing?

Yom kippur, yom kippur, reflection and atonement... at walmart!

holy carp, that "most wanted" song is one of the most annoying songs i've ever heard. i could barely get through 30 seconds. the music, the lyrics, the voice, everything.

at least the "least wanted" is funny and inventive, and while i don't enjoy much of it, i would much prefer to listen to it than the alternative.

I'm currently listening to the "Most Wanted Song"... this must be some kind of joke.
This is why I hate pop music and all it stands for. I'm looknig forward to the Unwanted song.... cuz this is just shit.

The most unwanted song is hilarious! And while they're right about the cowboy hoofbeats being resoundly annoying, juxtaposed with operatic rap, even they can be elevated to the status of wonderful.
