worst song ever

[Soldier]

Appropriate timing on this thread. A co-worker was just tormenting me with "Achy Breaky Heart" by Billy Ray Cyrus and now I . . . . must . . . . get . . . . it . . . . out . . . . of . . . . my . . . . head!!!!!!

Have you ever read the Dave Barry book about the worst songs of all time. It is simply hilareous. To qualify for a Worst Song it has to have some comercial success. Songs that top the list are MacArthur Park(bad metaphores), Timothy(canibalism in a coal mine), and the Pina Colada Song(terrible)

Anyway, What would you say is the absolute worst song of all time?

yeh, i love dave barry. but there are simply too many bad songs. it's too difficult to pick one.

 

[Perfection]

Any thing by a boy band is horrible

 

[Fez_Monk]

I strongly dislike pop punk (Blink 182, Green Day, American Hi Fi, New Found Glory etc. etc.), most nu metal, and "bling bling **** a bish and smoke some grass and get some paper" rap.

 

[De Lorimier]

Anything by Céline Dion...

 

[amadeus]

"Every Rose Has It's Thorn" by Poison.

That Enrice Inglacias (sp?) song "Hero" (I think. It goes "I will be your hero, baby...") I truly hate that song with a passion.

While I'm thinking about it, I also incredibly dislike all songs by Ramstein! Try living with a roomate who played this stupid band EVERY DAY I lived with him, and you'll get an inkling of my hell.

I'm also sick and tired of crappy sellout poseur punk and crappy nu-metal

Barbie Girl by Aqua. It makes me want to stick pointy objects in my genitals and dream about anal leakage.

"Hero" by Enrique, anything by the boy bands and anything by Celine Dion are all very annoying, but right now the band I despise the most is Dave Matthew's Band. I think it's cause they are so worshipped and overrated by college kids. If they only heard some Dylan, they would know REAL rock.

OK, this is just a foul image. Well done!

I do like that song, I'm not sure why.

Anything from Vanilla Ice makes me retch.

I hate the song "Horse With No Name." However, for some reason they play it on the radio ALL THE DAMN TIME. MacArthur Park is bad, too. ("Someone left the cake out in the rain...")

I don't like it in English, but I like the Spanish version.


Anything by any current "pop" band ever is a bad song.

 

[onejayhawk]

Has anyone been subjected to "The Night Chicago Died" lately. Ich.

You guys are all taking things too seriously! I just ignore the stuff you're talking about. How about songs which are so bad - possibly deliberately so - that they're actually GOOD? The supreme offering in this genre must be the following...

Canyons Of Your Mind (Stanshall)
The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band

(spoken during intro)
This is the 'B' side of our platter, sports fans
And I'm singing, just for you, covered in sequins.. uh ha

(sings)
In the canyons of your mind
I will wander through your brain
To the ventricles of your heart, my dear
I'm in love with you again

'cross the mountains of your chest
I will stick a Union Jack
To the forest of your cheek, ah...
Through the holes in your string vest

(There follows the most excrutiating guitar solo ever)

My darling, in my cardboard colored dreams
(Cardboard colored dreams)
Once again, I hear your laugh
(Oooh, oooh, oooh...)
And I kiss, yes, I kiss, your perfumed hair
(But she's not there)
The sweet essence of giraffe
(Of giraffe)

And each time I hear your name
(Frying Pan, Frying Pan)
Oh, oh, oh, my, my, how, how it hurts
(He's in pain)
In the wardrobe of my soul
(Of my soul)
In the section labeled "Shirts"
(Aaah... aaah)

Ah... ah,

Oh... ah,

I... I mean it, I... mmm

Oh! (Burp) (Burp)

she ran calling wiiiiilld Fiirrre
she ran calling wiiiiilld fiiiiirrrre
she ran calling wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiKABOOOOOOOOM

 

[Flatlander Fox]

Dancing Queen by Abba.

No song could possibly be more over-rated, and over played as this one.

Theme from Titanic is MASSIVELY offensive.

Gangster (C)Rap also falls into the category.

 

[gr8ful wes]

I agree with you whole heartedly

How bout these lyrics from Mac.Park

Someone left the cake out in the rain
And I dont think I can take it
cuz it took so long to make it
and we'll never have that memory againnnnn
againnnnnnnnnnnnnn...

 

[Akka]

The whole production of System of a Down and Pantera.
I admit that many just-shout-as-loud-as-you-can-and-call-it-singing groups could be possibly worse, but these two are a good sample of this kind of "songs".
