Worst Song Ever

OK, we have lots of music threads on here with really great tunes but let's talk about the stinkers.

Which songs do you loathe and why?

I will lead of with one of my all time worst...

MacArthur Park

Every time I hear this I want to scream, "IT'S JUST A CAKE!!!!"

Oh for sure..def the worst!!!
I also especially loathe "Inagaddadavita" by Iron Butterfly
makes my ears bleed whenever I encounter it
:rolleyes:
 
This thread is too much fun. Just out of curiousity. I googled "worst songs" and there were a couple of sites with lists. Shockingly, and perhaps sadly, a few on those lists were songs I really like. :eek:

Yes, I will sing along, (loudly), to "Play That Funky Music White Boy".

I will.

And I will LOVE it!

So there, haters. Pffffllllthhhbt.
 
Please, Make It Stop!!

More recently the most godawful song I've heard on the CMA award show was 'Red Solo Cup' by Toby Keith--Like nails on a chalkboard. Ordinarily like the guy. Don't know WHAT he was smoking to choose that piece of crap
 
Yeah, her name is Miley Cyrus.

*face slaps forehead in stinging manner*

Of course.

Step away from the polyester leisure suit and the airplane lapels.

Slowly.

Slowly.

We're your friends. We want to help you with your... Problem.
 
Recently, Irelands entry in eurovision this year. My god!

Almost as bad as their euro team.
 
I have a special place in my heart for this egregious version of "Rocket Man" by William Shatner. :D

Of course, as ITW has noted, this is outstandingly bad.

What makes me lunge for the channel button?

The Eagles: "Hotel California"

Or anything by Dave Matthews or Phish.
 
Roxanne by the Police. But only because we did the drinking game where every time he sang Roxanne you had to drink. It was messy and now every time I hear it I have to run for the bathroom.
 
oooooh!

This is the best thread. Thanks Keroin!

Hands down, one of the worst ever OMG OMG, creepy ass song! Pedophile much????

Who talks to their furniture? Neil Diamond with jowls. Not good, no way.

Eagles based suckage Donnie's ego ran away and got lost for a while. Sunset Grill redeemed him, though.

The wide sweeping arm makes the song just that much worse Sweeping arm my ass! Her voice makes me gag, whatever she sings. Too nasal.

Ugh... I hate to admit this in so many ways. I was thinking about that song yesterday, in a stupid stream of consciousness about bad 70s songs. This wins!

However, I'll see that last song, and raise you Midnight at the Oasis:

Look, I'd be completely fine with the Eagles if it weren't all plodding, pretentious bullshit.

That's my only issue with them.

Hit it, Mojo.

lol

I'd be completely fine with rock if it weren't all plodding, pretentious bullshit.

I'd even be completely fine with media if it weren't all plodding, pretentious bullshit.

Oh fuck it, I'd be completely fine with communication if it weren't all plodding, pretentious bullshit.
 
Living Next Door to Alice....Alice, Alice, who the fuck is Alice?

Arrgggghhhh

And Oh Micky, You're so fine.

I love that song, but that's cause of a ... funny story around it.

My brother's name rhymes with micky, and when he was 15 he started a new school. First day of school he came home with girls phone numbers written all the way up his arm, and he was swaggering. You could tell he was SURE he had the biggest dick. Anyway, he showed my stepdad who said, totally straight faced 'oh *icky, you're so fine. you're so fine you blow my mind'.

so I taught the song to my littlest sister (who was four at the time) and she would torment him by singing it whenever he had girlfriends over. :devil:

Hold it. Are you saying EVERYTHING is plodding, pretentious bullshit? Nay, sir. Give me a tight little Buddy Holly tune, devoid of pretension or plod, every time.


You were born for this thread. ;)

Cheerleader outfits and pigtails can only be but so annoying.

(okay, I'm thinking of the Toni Basil version...)

Slickey? Hickey? Lickey? :confused:

Hehe. You were the evil sister, weren't you?

Every time this song was played at a wedding or club, I would walk out of the room. Not only does this song suck, but watching everyone get on the [URL="http://youtu.be/bmKhEGiNshA"]dance floor to this was painful![/URL]

I still remember Al Gore's appalling attempt every time I do it. I think I'm channeling him.

NOOOOOOOOO NOOOOOOOOOO, the dance steps to it. NOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Make it stop, please, I beg you, make it stooooopppp.

Sounds like a great punishment for an unruly kiwi_subbie.
