I think I'm losing interest on Ashley Tisdale since her music is horrible and not fond of "High School Musical" (though she's kinda cute) :( :P
Regina Spektor, one of my friends lent me one of her albums, but I liked her music when it was originally done by Tori Amos

Oh yes "High School Musical", how could I forget, definitely a big worst for 2006. I've heard of the Fidelity song by this Regina Spektor, not a big fan either but it's not as bad as some other stuff I've heard lol.

There sure was alot of crap in '06 ;D
I'd say the worst of all is Jibbs. I think that song "Chain Hang Low" will be remembered as one of the worst songs of the decade.
