You've probably heard these singles on repeat this summer, but maybe if we're put our minds together, this will be their final resting place.

Here are some songs that I thought you'd love… love to hit over the head with a baseball bat and leave in a ditch by the side of the road.

“Where Are Ü Now?” Jack Ü ft Justin Bieber

Leave it to Skrillex and Diplo to bring a narcissist like Justin Bieber back into the spotlight. Thanks guys, because the world hasn't had enough of this whiny arrogant brat yet. Don't get me wrong, “Where are Ü Now?” is pretty catchy, but I can think of 101 better artists to feature in this song.

“Bad Blood” Taylor Swift

If you're going to feature anyone in a song titled “Bad Blood”, why not ask Kanye West to do a verse? I'm not sure what Kendrick Lamar is doing on this track, but it looks like he's a little miffed about it as well. Talk about being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

“Honey I'm Good” Andy Grammer

Clearly you've been at this bar too long, Andy. Maybe you should have opened with, “Hey I've got a gal” before leading this poor woman on and proceeding to write an entire song about it to shame her for offering you a drink. That bitch.

“Dead Inside” Muse

As far as genre hopping goes, it appears that Muse has taken a page right out of Taylor Swift's playbook. These alternative rockers are trying to steal some of the Veld festival fans by putting their guitars through synthesizers but have gravely missed the mark as far as I'm concerned. Freestyle called and it wants itst iconic ‘80s vocoder back.

“This Summer's Going to Hurt Like a Motherfucker” Maroon 5

Who on Earth thought it would be a good idea to put the word motherfucker into the chorus of a song made for radio? Maybe if Maroon 5 was still an edgy rock band, this would have been a good move, but after Adam Levine spent nine seasons hosting The Voice, the band pretty much forfeited that status. Bravo on making the worst radio edit of the year.

“Hey Mama” David Guetta ft Nicki Minaj, Bebe Rexha, & Afrojack

Can you believe it took nine writers and four pop stars to make this song?

Here are some song highlights:

“Whole crew got the juice, your dick came the truth.”

“Just tell ‘em to make a U, that's how it be.”

“Beating my drum like dum di-di-day.”

‘Nuff said.

“Talking Body” Tove Lo

Some songs just shouldn't be on the radio, particularly songs that spend four minutes expressing the fact that you're only together for the sex. You're horny. We get it. Now shut up and write something else. Perhaps if you weren't spending all summer in bed with this guy, you would have had five minutes to create something with a shred of lyrical whimsy. This could be the worst thing to happen since Nickelback.

“I Really Like You” Carly Rae Jepsen

This song is really, really, really, really, really, really bad, and I'm not sure how else to get that point across without setting something on fire. It took three people to pen this atrocity, and it'll take at least three glasses of scotch to burn its existence from my memory.
