100 Worst Songs Ever
« on: September 11, 2010, 11:51:50 AM »
According to AOL.  It's pretty funny.

http://www.aolradioblog.com/2010/09/11/worst-songs/?ncid=AOLDSN00280000000032

Some notables . . .

Quote
097 'The Girl Is Mine'
Michael Jackson & Paul McCartney

Proof that combining two extremely talented singers doesn't always produce good results.

Quote
085 'Girl You Know It's True'
Milli Vanilli

Turns out absolutely nothing about this was true. Which sets up the question "Couldn't they have bought a better lie?"

Quote
082 'Some Girls (Dance With Women)'
JC Chasez

Singing in monotone falsetto on one of the worst songs to explain why girls grind each other at clubs will likely not win you any of them.

I could go on quoting, but I won't.

I like that I can listen to all of 'Ice, Ice Baby' on that website without having to illegally download it.

And yet I actually have a few of these on my iPod.

Oh, and a few they forgot:

--Macarena (Los Del Rio)
--Bad Day (Daniel Powter)
--All I Wanna Do (Sheryl Crow)
--Born in the USA (Bruce Springsteen) (listen to the lyrics, and then you'll know what "pretentious asshole" means)
--Your Body Is A Wonderland (John Mayer)

Quote
70 'The Lady in Red'
Chris de Burgh

Unlike most guys, he remembers what his wife wore when they met. So? At least those fellas don't write crap songs.

Quote
56 'Love Will Keep Us Together'
Captain & Tenille

Thirty-five years on, love has kept them together. The rest of us can stand united by our mutual dislike of this song.

Quote
46 'I Touch Myself'
The Divinyls

And the winner for the "Too Much Information for Social Comfort in Modern Rock Songwriting" award goes to ...

That should do it for now.

Terry Jacks' "Seasons in the Sun" is a cover from the original artist, The Fortunes...... It was kind of lame in 1975

They somehow forgot about the song, "Turning Japanese"....... (along the lines of "I touch myself", etc)

Actually, there's probably a dozen of the songs on that list that I like. I also like the pre- 1967 Beatles.

and here's a tune for Sparky:

Never been a fan of anything by the Beatles. I know they're supposed to be one of the greatest acts of all time, but I just don't like them.

67 'Rumors'
Lindsay Lohan
With all the stories buzzing around her now, this song can almost be seen as prophetic. Oh, wait ... pa-thetic.
Who saw this coming?

Quote
37 'I Love Rock 'n' Roll'
Britney Spears
Doing her best to single-handedly set the women-in-rock movement back 20 years. (Joan Jett rules, BTW!)
No surprise.

Quote
18 'Achy Breaky Heart'
Billy Ray Cyrus
Attention, all units! Country music has been kidnapped. Suspect last seen with a rat-tail and driving a Chevy with "Truck Balls." Also wanted for child endangerment.
Two Hit Wonder.

DJ Pauly D
"Being a guido's a way of life. I don't represent all Italians, I represent myself. I started this whole GTO s--- (Gym, Tan, Laundry). You have to stay fresh to dance." Yours truly, DJ Pauly D. 'Nuff said.

'Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Ole Oak Tree'
Tony Orlando and Dawn
We love brave American soldiers. So much so, we think they deserve much better than this upon their return.

The song was about a guy getting out of prison, other people took the yellow ribbon idea from the song and used it for various other reasons.
