Hey. Apparently you kids don’t do your research. And you probably haven’t even heard much of Say Anything’s music. Unsupported claims about a band and its associations, interests, and label make you seem just as stupid and imprudent as your obtuse, one-sided rambling. Of course, your heads are probably too far up your asses to read or comprehend this, but I’ll say it anyway. This “cover” obviously isn’t meant to be taken seriously, and if you even thought the title “Punk Goes Crunk” could mean anything serious for just one second, you’re an idiot. If you ever decide to call anyone a self-indulgent art-fuck again, take a look at this article and all of your pretentious bullshit. And they aren’t “indie-punk,” they’re whatever the fuck they want to be. So much for your clichés.

hahaha wow i’m laughing so much. i just want you guys to know that you all sound like a heap of pompous, uninformed assholes. and i’m guessing that you are pompous, uninformed assholes.

clearly, max bemis does not take this seriously whatsoever, thus resulting in high-quality entertainment. this is not an actual say anything take of odb. there are countless other songs that deserve your attention for “worst songs of the decade”.

As a regular reader of Idolator I was dismayed to see this song make your list. While you are entitled to hate the song as much as needed, I just want to clear one thing up: the conclusion you came to regarding Cisco Adler is wrong. All we knew of him in 2007 was that he has an enormous nutsack as evidenced by a picture on the internets. That picture was used as a torture device throughout the recording process & Adler seemed a perfect choice for the updated Eddie Murphy diss from ODB’s version. Since then, Cisco Adler has been, uh, stuffed down our throats via the mtv. If only his talent were as large as his balls… Anyway, good luck on your continued list-making.

Best- Brad

I really like penis imagery, but the cover of their first album made me want to kick them all in their stupid heads. Then I heard their hit single and decided to just kill myself instead.

I think the irony being is that he didn’t do it because the label said he should, but because HE WANTED THE MONEY :) I think the song is hilarious, the whole album is so bad, there is only one good song on there (Person L’s Seed 2.0) and the rest is a travesty.

I am also a fan of Say Anything’s first album, which is about as good as emo punk gets. At the same time, as their video for “I Can Get Sexual Too” presents, Say Anything have a detached and unfortunate view on rap cliches, and this cover sadly slams home their tone deafness on this subject. Since this song was already forgotten the moment after its release, I don’t think it really makes sense for this list. So many of us can think of actual bad songs that plagued us in worse ways. In other words, “Beverly Hills” better rank fucking high.

haha I actually like Say Anything, but I enjoyed this takedown immensely.

Punk Goes Crunk was a monstrosity of the highest order, but Set Your Goals’ cover of Lil Jon’s ‘Put Your Hood Up’ therein absolutely slays.

@BradNelson: Oh so mean to tell me that perhaps they went into this wanting to treat the track with respect, or from some place of admiration? I'll take that with a Costco-sized case of salt.
