Most WTF Song Choices Of All Time.

Recommended Posts

New Americana wasn't super weird of a choice and the fact that Adam (I think?) made a deal over "marijuana" was laughable. Maye Thomas next season's blind flat out had "smoke a little weed" and it was no problem. Sure got Adam and Miley to turn :haha:

 

Some memorable baffling wtf song choices include:

Shane Q - Caribbean Queen

Judith Hill - #thatpower

Shadale - Life is a Highway

Starting with Moushumi - New Americana. Not only she won only because she was paired against Nick Hagelin, but Moushumi also sang a song with inappropriate words in it. Seriously? 


6 years later and I still don’t see how the word marijuana is inappropiate :haha:

 

Anyways, Barrett’s Ghost is an obvious choice.

Honestly, by giving Moushumi a super late slot in the tapings for the auditions, montaging her battle, and then giving her New Americana and then a Justin Bieber song in the Playoffs, it seems like every step of her path on the Voice was TPTB trying to bus her. (New Americana was great though!)

Remember when The Voice decided to give a classic rocker "Chandelier", "Let It Go"(yes, the Disney song) and "Good Girl", all in the same week?? Yeah, good times 

 

They have learned nothing since then. They keep giving rockers the most f**ked up song choices

Which reminds of other worthy entres on the list: Somebody to Love for TMH (They really avoided Queen and went for One Republic) and freaking Shawn Mendes for Jake Haldenvang. Also Adele, even though I dig her music, is not fit for a rocker as well.

Let's be honest: that was a desperate, shameless attempt to promote NBC's show "Songland". They didn't even tried to hide it, i mean, they even brought producers from that show to produce original songs for the finalists. Poor Todd, was a victim of their cheap marketing strategies.

Oh god that was hilarious.

Until you realize it got him PV in semifinals. S9 bloodbath night is probably the most traumatizing night in the show’s run :haha:

Lol I wish I could have watched it live. Was it more or less as chaotic as Red Marlow winning the IS or the S16's playoffs result night?

TMH was 100% robbed because of this. Also this happens to be the first time I agree with you.

S9 was my first season posting on IDF but I do remember a lot of chaos/debate over who would be PV alongside Jordan because everyone except Shelby Brown kept shuffling around spots in the iTunes top 10 that whole evening. And then when it was Barrett (who ended up the 2nd lowest charter of the night at #9) that got PV, I know a lot of people were stressed. Also mix in Amazing Grace making Braiden outchart others, Amy Vachal not landing in the middle 3 despite several back-to-back weeks in the iTunes top 10, a lot of people fearing for Zach Seabaugh snatching the Instant Save over Jeffery or Madi, and some people not liking Emily Ann's 9 to 5.

I first got into the voice during s12 when I was on bed rest in the hospital. Brennley was my favorite and I sent her many message as a naive 8th grader expecting her to respond and give me a singing lesson. You can only imagine my immense disappointment when I heard SUDS IN THE BUCKET

Since this thread is revived 

 

The worst (and most disappointing) one I’ve ever seen 

 

Ellie Lawrence-Cool For The Summer

 

Even Ellie has since admitted and made fun of that song choice 

 

Some others I remember being quite odd not yet mentioned 


-Moushumi-Love Yourself (People talk about New Americana but this one actually hurt) 

-Royce Lovett-Wake Me Up

-Adam Cunningham-Against All Odds

-Casme-Wrecking Ball

-Jershika Maple-Ain’t It Fun (kinda worked though ngl) 

-Amber Nicole-Wasting All These Tears 

-Claire DeJean-There’s Nothing Holding Me Back 

-Nic Hawk-Blurred Lines

Brennley should have done a better job with Suds. Song isn’t that bad. What we learned is that she couldn’t handle anything uptempo, so her elimination was justified. 

Maybe it's unpopular but I think Brennley's version is good and underrated
