What is the WORST song you've ever heard?

SteveFord · « **on:** 27 Jul 2014, 01:13 am »

I've been busy doing things and have had the radio going and man, is there ever a lot of dreck out there.
It's pretty much a toss up between "I Like Cold Beverages" by G. Love and Special Sauce

and "(You Gotta) Fight For Your Right To Party" by The Beastie Boys

for me.
Can anyone top these two gems?

I have to agree with you on The Beastie Boys..but I like G Love's tune.
I second the vote for Yoko Ono.

milford3 for the win... game over. Once heard her voice described as sounding like a cat that was being back door violated by John Holmes (had to parse my words carefully there, hope I succeeded)

db, Y.O.'s voice is what you'd expect to come wailing out of your avatar.

I can't remember the name, but it's by that bald headed chick, or , anything by Black Oak Arkansaw.

I'll take a stab at this.....Sinead O'Conner "Nothing Compares to You"??
My vote goes to the Village People "YMCA"

BTW whenever someone at work leaves thier computer (desk) for awhile and they have a Pandora station open, I type the Village People and various other artists ie Beastie Boys, Culture Club into thier radio stations or playlists. hehe

Can't remember the song title, but it was definitely off a Dory Previn album back in the day. Close second would be one or two from Incredible String Band. Don't get me wrong, I like some of the ISB stuff, but there are a few that, shall we say, should have been left in the pigsty.

William Shatner "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds"
Red Sovine "Teddy Bear"

How about "96 Tears" performed live by Question Mark and the Mysterians? Two generations later and I still cringe. After that Yoko..

Naked Eyes "always something there to remind me"
Toni Basil "hey Mickey"
Cindi Lauper "Girls just want to have fun"
Dixie's midnight runners "come on Eileen"

Worst of the worst to me. When I hear any one of these damn songs,
They stay in my head for hours!!!

When my wife and I were dating, we would walk the boardwalk at the Jersey shore.
You could not go half a block w/o hearing this tune blasting somewhere !!
Stuck in my head like glue.
I am sure Robert Moog cursed the day he invented the synthesizer.

How could you say that?

That brings back fond memories of Side 2 of Live Peace In Toronto.
Oddly enough, if you play it backwards it sounds the same.
Truly, an underappreciated talent.

The Lion Sleeps Tonight by The Tokens. Even a love of anything nostalgic can't save that song.

Well, I kinda liked the Safety Dance, but I submit this for your consideration:

Yummy, yummy, yummy

In general, Bubblegum Music. It all sucks.
