Top 10 Most Pretentious Songs

The Top Ten
1 Careless Whisper - George Michael

"TIMMME can NEVVVER MENNND...the CARRRELESS WHISSSPERS of(! ) a(! ) good friend; to the heart and MIND, ignorance is KIND! There's no comfort in the truth; PAINNN IS AH-HALLL YOU'LL FINNND! " - Story Of My Recent Gratuitous Wanking Session, I Mean Life

2 Viva la Vida - Coldplay

No amount of instrumental production value can hide how utterly bland and tasteless this dreck really is

3 Paranoid Android - Radiohead

Yes, we get it, Yorke; you're stoned out of your mind

4 Let It Go - Frozen

Personally, I'd rather Let It Grow

5 Zombie - The Cranberries

Seriously, there are probably almost literally more voice cracks in this song than there are actual words, and I personally don't count "EEYAHEYEEYAAAY" or "ZAHOMBAY" as certified English words, just between you and me

6 Uprising - Muse
7 Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen
8 Behind Blue Eyes - The Who

I'm pretty sure that mostly every starving and abused child in Africa knows what it's like (the "bad man" part referring to the oppression towards them)

9 Rap God - Eminem

"Now who thinks their BRAIN is big enough to mock others? "

10 Lateralus - Tool

Any Tool song qualifies for this list. They are an utterly boring, souless, and pretentious band.

The Contenders
11 Imagine - John Lennon

I don't really know how this is pretentious,the lyrics are rather simplistic.

12 Word Crimes - Weird Al

Makes me want to LIT-ER-ALLY go to sleep
