Black Eyed Peas: 0
Sounds even worse today than it did back then. Luckily, I can now look back on it and laugh.

Alanis Morissette: 6
Not a fan of Alanis by any stretch, but at least I now know she's not completely humourless (unless calling your album "Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie" counts as a joke). Perhaps I've misjudged her.
