worst song ever

Stormerne, even just thinking of the phrases "Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band" and "worst song ever" together goes against everything one believes in! :D
 
Billy, Dont be a hero dont be a fool with your life
Billy, dont be a hero, come back and make me your wife.
And as he started to go
She said billy keep your head Low oh oh
Billy dont be a hero, come back to me
 
Any of that so called 'pop' crap. Also I can't stand that techno, dance stuff.
 
For some reason, whenever I see or hear Sheryl Crow, it makes me want to hurt someone.

I would say any of the lyrics by The Streets, they have nice tunes but that guy needs to buy a rhyming dictionary......
no they have great lyrics. :aargh:
 
Any mass-manufactured, black-sweatshirt wearing, pop-rock boy-band that have sickening high school scenes and jocks in their videos...

And also, nickleback...for being ruthless media parasites.

Makes me wanna use my Flammenwerfer!
 
remember that song the went
"gimme dat, gimme dat, gimme dat ding

:goodjob: They're only slightly more original than the average nu metal band, and radio overplay killed any appeal that they had.

Can I borrow your Flammenwerfer when your done with it? I hear 3 Doors Down is playing a show here.[plasma] :wallbash:
 
How about that Van (Hagar) Halen tune, I think it's called "Why Can't this be Love"--but it contains the stupid line "only time will tell/if we stand the test of time" and other moronic clicheisms.

Or Sting's pathetically pretentious name-dropping of Nabokov in "Don't Stand So Close to Me" (the Police).

Or the Culture Club's "Do You Really Wanna Hurt Me?"--now I'm a fairly laid-back, peaceful guy, BUT DON'T TEMPT ME! :)

There are probably too many pop songs that make me cringe, to mention here.
 
Even though one is an evil dictator who has no qualms about having an entire continent executed because one rolled out of the wrong side of bed that day, one is rather suprised at the depths of hatred and violence that mere musice arouses in some people!. :eek:
You don't have to burn them or shoot them, just not listen to them. Golly.

Yes truly excellent...:rolleyes:
you have obviously not understood the point with lyrics, your g'n'r listener.
 
Da Da Da by those Germans with the Casio VL-tone.

That one where the woman sings 'you've gotta be good, you've gotta be strong, you've gotta be wiser' etc. Stop telling me what to do! It's just nag, nag, nag!

Anything by Westlife/Ronan Keating, and any boyband/manufactured band by extension. It's the musical equivaent of painting-by-numbers.

Any 'new act' that covers a former #1 because they are clearly devoid of ideas of their own, and think they can gather vicarious #1s. This means Will and Gareth, Atomic Kitten, Westlife, and all the rest of the artistically bankrupt no-marks. Absolutely feeble! Is hate too strong a word? No!

21 Seconds by So Solid Crew - what is all that about? It's a load of loblocks, that's what.

Scat Man - "be-bap-bap-baddap-bo, bap-bap-baddap-bo". Horrible, as the Duke O'York says.

That 'I want to know what love is' one.

All time worst (bee-in-my-bonnet style, if you couldn't guess by the following):
Never, Ever - All Saints.
Appalling grammar: "Never ever have I ever..."? Excuse me?
Terrible stupidity: "When you gonna take me out of this black hole?" Nothing can escape from a black hole, you dimwit!
Grammar again: "All the answers to my questions I have to find " It's traditional in English to keep sentences in the right order, not cut them in half and stick the beginning of the sentence at the end.
"Sometimes vocabulary runs right through me " What? A lexicon scampering through your stomach?
"You got my conscience asking questions that I can't find " This is gibberish.
"I'm not crazy " - Anyone who feels they have to sing this is generally crazy.
"Never ever have I ever felt so sad
The way i'm feeling yeah you got me feeling really bad" This is emotional illiteracy on a titanic scale. I feel sad, you make me feel bad. You would barely expect to hear this from a 4 year old.
"Sometimes vocabulary runs through my head" This is often known as 'thought' but I don't think it applies in this instance.
"You can tell me to my face
You can tell me on the phone
Oooh you can write it in a letter babe "
And then you can do it with e-mail, mime it with hand-puppets, woodcut depiction, paint an abstract representation of it, set it out in Braille, get a plane to do sky-writing, etc. etc. etc.
And then I read some geeky reviewer who started a piece with:
"A lyricist of the stature of Shaznay Lewis...." ROFLMAO!!!
Apparently, she wrote the above when she was 17 or something. All I can say is, it shows. I'd like to quote P.J. O'Rourke at this point:
"V is for verse, which all adolescents write.
Mawkish, derivative, self-pitying and trite."
Thanks P.J!
Now, I need to go and put a damp towel over my head.
 
Beautifully vented spleen polymath!
I wonder if the mods would mind if we had a little competition to critically slag off whatever it may be that you hate the most, or even something that just irks you sufficiently to make the ire boil over into something like the above. As long as no-one just jumps in with swear words, forgetting that this is supposed to be a creative thing and "That Cher is f**kin rubbish" pales in comparison to soemthing like the above. So just follow the forum rules: nothing you'd do in front of your parents, and have fun venting your anger in an explosion of impotent fury! I'd prefer it if people didn't jump into this straight away but waited until a mod has given this idea his approval so let's wait a day or so and I'll open a new thread tomorrow if allowed. :D
So if the mods allow us, and if I remember then we can start to vent our spleen on records/books/games/TV shows/films we hate, or even go as far as the people who park across two spaces. It's not the subject of your whine that counts - it's the quality of invective! :)
 
Thanks Duke!
Please moderators, can we have a thread dedicated to the beauty of futile wrath? To be judged purely on 'the quality of invective'?
Please, please, please?
 
Hat's off to polymath for that rant, but All Saints were far to fit to hold the crown of worst song ever. ;)

I still don't see any song listed that is actually worse than 'How much is that doggy in the window', but that's just me I guess. If you don't know it (England 50's I believe) do not on *any* account go looking for it on Google.
