The music of torture

I read on CNN.com today that some noisy teens who were causing a nuisance in their community are being penalized in an unusual(albeit effective in my mind) way. They are being forced to listen to Barry Manilow. With this in mind, here is my top ten list of bands/singers who would provide the most effective form of punishment for people, regardless of their age.

1) Michael McLean (I wouldn't even listen to it as a missionary)

2) Depeche Mode (aka Depress Mode)

3) Guns & Roses (aka Scums & Posers)

4) Cher (Plastic Surgery 101)

5) Barry Manilow (Coco Cabana: need I say more)

6) Blink 182 (Mike Tyson is their lead vocalist)

7) REO Speedwagon (RrrrrrrEO Speedwagon)

8) Neil Diamond ("Sweet Caroline" should not be said 63 times in one song)

9) REM (I don't feel shiny or happy when I hear them)

10) Yanni (Is he a computer programmer or a musician?)
