Worst. Song. EVER!
Love me love me
say that you love me
fool me fool me
go on and fool me
love me love me
pretend that you love me
leave me leave me
just say that you need me

Love me love me
say that you love me
leave me leave me
just say that you need me
I can't care 'bout anything but you...

AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
What the hell is WRONG with people?!
They're actually LISTENING to this... and ENJOYING IT!

I think my head might just explode. It was all I could do to keep from hurling things at them.

:argh:

9. No, that is downright pleasant
compared to this awful dredge.

It really should be banned. If I owned that town, I would make a law that to NEVER allow this song within earshot EVER!

A mere bagatelle. Just whimsy in comparison to the all-time gorge-inducing song in history:

"Good Morning, Starshine"

Glibby, gloop, gloopy indeed...The musical version of Syrup of Ipecac.

13. Hey, don't be doggin' Barnes and Barnes
Fish heads is one of the greatest songs ever written. :+

I took a fish head out to see a movie,
didn't have to pay to get it in.

They don't play baseball,
They're not good dancers,
They don't wear sweaters,
They don't play drums.


Rolly polly fish heads are never seen drinking capucino in italian restaurants with oriental women... yeah.

What's not to like? :silly:

Holiday! Celebrate!
Ooh yeah. Ooh yeah.


Whatever. I know that it doesn't go exactly like that but it comes off just as bad in my mind and always has.

44. Our country would be better off if everybody would take a
Holiday
written by Curtis Hudson and Lisa Stevens
Track 5, Time: 6:11
-------------------------
Holiday Celebrate
Holiday Celebrate

Chorus:

If we took a holiday
Took some time to celebrate
Just one day out of life
It would be, it would be so nice

Everybody spread the word
We're gonna have a celebration
All across the world
In every nation
It's time for the good times
Forget about the bad times, oh yeah
One day to come together
To release the pressure
We need a holiday

(chorus)

You can turn this world around
And bring back all of those happy days
Put your troubles down
It's time to celebrate
Let love shine
And we will find
A way to come together
And make things better
We need a holiday

(chorus)

Holiday Celebrate
Holiday Celebrate

(chorus)

Holiday Celebrate
Holiday Celebrate

Holiday, Celebration
Come together in every nation

it's a wonderful dance song!

8. okay, I have to admit
I like that song. :freak:

Not that it is earth shattering in is composition or substance... I guess I like it because it's kind of perky, and I'm a sucker for a siren.

33. That is the #1 all time worst song ever, according to some TV show on VH-1
I forgot the show or the poll, but it is generally acknowledged as the WORST pop recording of the last half of the 20th century.

Even worse than "When a man loves a woman" by Michael Bolton.

20. This is worse
I think it's so groovy now
That people are finally getting together
I thinks it's so wonderful and how
That people are finally getting together
Reach out in the darkness
Reach out in the darkness
Reach out in the darkness
And you may find a friend

I knew a man that I did not care for
And then one day this man gave me a call
We sat and talked about things on our mind
And now this man he is a friend of mine
Don't be afraid of love
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid to love
Everybody needs a little love
Everybody needs somebody
That they can be thinking of



and the signing is even worse than the lyrics

By Rick Dees and his Cast of Idiots. Believe it or not, someone requested it and they played it on KCMN (1530 AM) in Colorado Springs.

I'd say the worst song ever is somewhere in the depths of Rod Stewart's Camouflage.

edit: And it should be noted that I like a lot of shitty songs, or at least powerfully disliked songs. I have some really awful taste in music sometimes.

47. Compared to Muskrat Love, it's the zenith of western culture.
Muskrat, Muskrat, candle light Doing the town
and doing it right in the evening
It's pretty pleasing Muskrat Suzie, Muskrat Sam do the jitterbug
out in Muskrat Land And they shimmy...
Sam is so skinny And they whirl and they twirl and they tango
Singing and jinging a jango
Floating like the heavens above
Looks like Muskrat Love.
Nibbling on bacon, chewing on cheese Sam says to Suzie,
Honey, would you please be my Mrs?
Suzie says yes with her kisses
Now he's tickling her fancy,
rubbing her toes muzzle to muzzle now,
anything goes as they wriggle,
Sue starts to giggle
