Worst Songs EVER recorded.

[Guest]

Except for the lockjaw Rumples gave me, I'm happy to say I haven't heard most of the songs mentioned here. "Achy Breaky Heart"? No idea.

This thread should come with a warning label. The Night Chicago Died has been stuck in my head since this morning. Yeesh!

I'm embarrassed to say that Ballad Of the Green Beret was the first album I ever bought. I used to stand G.I. Joe on the turntable when I played it and watched him spin.

I hate those duets with dead people. It's liked stealing the pennies off your Daddy's eyes.

Worse than Achy Breaky are those crappy ass songs that come crawling out of Nashville whenever there's a war. Those "gonna put my boot in Saddam's ass" kind of things. ~shudder~

And don't be dissin' Shatner!
He's a god, I tell you, a god!

I don't know about Shatner's divinity status, but he IS now a Golden Globe winner.

Speaking of divinity, Perdita, give thanks to yours and all those of your friends and neighbors for not having heard, Achy Breaky Heart. It was a novelty country song that took off and just about wiped out every c&w disc jockey in the land.

What about that godawful "If you like Pina Coladas" song?

Ptooie!

A clever little ditty by a guy named Victor Lundbergh (sic?) called "An Open Letter to My Teenage Son" desrves mention. It was around the Barry Sadler time and another spoken word gem along the lines of "Deteriorata" or whatever that thing was called.

The last line of Victor's rant against his long haired kid was something like "If you burn your draft card you'd better burn your birth certificate too because you're no son of mine." Charming.

Anybody recall the Mike Douglas classic "The Men in My Little Girl's Life"? They don't write them like that anymore, and for good reason, although now you get "Baby Got Back".

Paula Cole - Where Have All the Cowboys Gone?

We finally sold the Chevy
When we had another baby
And you took that job in Tennessee
You made friends at the farm
And you joined them at the bar
Almost every single day of the week
I will wash the dishes while you go have a beer.

Where is my John Wayne?
Where is my prairie son?
Where is my happy ending?
Where have all the Cowboys gone?
Where is my Marlboro Man?
Where is my shiny gun?
Where is my lonely ranger?
Where have all the cowboys gone?

Yippee Aw, Yippee Yea
Yippee Aw, Yippee Yea
Yippee Aw, Yippee Yea

The words are sorta stupid, yeah, but I sorta liked that song.

I hate that I like that song.

 

[Evil Alpaca]

I hate that I like that song.

I think everyone has songs like that. I created a CD I called "Guilty Pleasures" of songs that I really shouldn't like but do . . .

I've got Sir Mix-a-lot's "Baby Got Back" on there, if that tells you anything.

 

[OhMissScarlett]

Has anyone said 'Do you believe In Life After Love' by Cher? That song makes me want to jump out a freakin' window.

When that song came out, my now-near-16-yr-old was around three, and I had that tape....he knew all the damn words. We'd go riding down the street in my Z28, t-tops out, he'd have his little sunglasses on, and be singing....

"I like big butts and I cannot lie
You other brothers can't deny
That when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist
And a round thing in your face
You get sprung..."

Oooo, flashback: Summer, Chicago, humid. Every other car on the street was blaring Cher or Ricky Martin, Living La Vida Loca.

Good times.

(I admitted to liking Barby Girl and Do You REally Want to Hurt Me; I'll admit to the Cowboy song too. *sigh* When was that support group meeting?)

I loved that song. You couldn't help but laugh at the lip-smacking juicy lustiness in it.

Sniff . . . You musta been so proud!



(On tape even? I'm trying to remember what those are like.)

 

[rikaaim]

I don't remember the name of the song, but the chorus is something like this:


You and me baby and nothing but mamals,
so let's do it like they do on the discovery channel.


That's always a classic.

Yes. Yes....

I'm sorry you remember that.

 

[Evil Alpaca]

Actually, I like that song. (Another guilty pleasure, I suspect).

Ohhh....how about:


We are Control all you Base.


That's classic too.

I'm so ashamed that I know that.
