1. Fire & Rain-James Taylor
--Seriously, this song makes me cringe in pain every time, in fact, James Taylor is quite possibly the worst popular songwriter ever.

2. Slide-Goo Goo Dolls
--For a time, when i would hang out with my less musically inclined friends, that every time we would go to a bar, there would be some shitty cover band playing this song. and every time, I'd make it a point to yell "don't quit your day jobs assholes!"

3. Nookie-Limp Bizkit
--the song that made me hate high school.

4. Pearl Jam-Elderly Woman Shitting Behind A Counter In A Bucket With An Expression On Her Face That Says, Yeah, This Song Sucks.
--Have you ever seen a group of idiot college guys all break out into song

5. Creed-With Arms Wide Open
--not as wide open as scott stapp's asshole apparently.

6. Grateful Dead-Casey Jones
This is more of a personal hatred...and mainly because I fucking hate the grateful dead.

7. Everclear-any of the ones that go "nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh, yeah"

I'll edit later with more.

It was Stevie Wonder and McCartney.


I think the quote is from "The Girl Is Mine"?

Damn Squirg, you're 0-2 on that post.

I like this song a lot. Bach it ain't, but its cheesy in your face lyrics are part of the appeal for me. Do you like other Kiss songs of that vintage?

I feel like too many people are neglecting the obvious with this thread. I'm not actually sure which Goo Goo Dolls song that is, but I know one of their songs needs to be mentioned here.

But:



There are way worse Pearl Jam songs than this, and really, that song just isn't that bad. I have no desire to ever hear it again, but it doesn't make me angry or nauseous like "Betterman", "Jeremy", or "Daughter". Then again, I think those suffer more from just being overplayed mediocre songs rather than really being terrible.

In general, I think I have a much easier time coming up with songs I really hate from the '90s than any other period. It probably has a lot to do with my age, but most of the songs mentioned from the '70s and '80s just seem really silly to me. They don't make me tense up with hatred and disgust the way "Fly Away" and "Smooth" do.

this song is awesome

I'm not ranking these 'cuz they're all equally awful.

Clint Holmes "Playground in My Mind"
Johnny Cash "Ring of Fire"
Captain & Tenille "Muskrat Love"
Radiohead "Creep"
Mac Davis "I Believe In Music"
Minnie Ripperton "Loving You"
Little River Band "Reminiscing"
Michael Franks "Popsicle Toes"
The Darkness "I Believe In A Thing Called Love"
Maria Muldaur "Midnight At The Oasis"

and this song, while bad, is still better than any of the putrid crap on Pet Sounds

God this one is so fucking horrible.

Anyone mention Extreme "More Than Words" yet?

How about that kid rock song, you know the song with the "bang da bang diggy diggy" or whatever the hell he's saying. That rates up there for me at least; never fails to induce a cringe.

or America "Horse With No Name"
or Sammy Hagar "I Can't Drive (55)"
or Steve Miller Band "Abracadabra"
or Dan Hill "Sometimes When We Touch"
or Lionel Richie "Say You Say Me"
or Chicago "you pick the shitty ballad"
or Phil Collins "Susudio"
or Starland Vocal Band "Afternoon Delight"
?

i am the man
who will fight
for your honor

Scorpions, "Winds of Change"
Billy Joel, that heart attack-ack-ack-ack song.

I do like other Kiss songs of that time, yes.
But that one is pretty much unlistenable to me: no melody, awful lyrics, just... UGH.

I'm not ready to rank these just yet, but here's my bottom 10:

"Wild Wild West" - Escape Club
"You Gotta Be" - Des'ree
"Achy Breaky Heart" - Billy Ray Cyrus
"Desert Moon" - Dennis DeYoung
“Don't Cry Out Loud” - Melissa Manchester
“In the Year 2525” - Zager and Stevens
"We Are TEH WORLD"
"This Used to Be My Playground" - Madonna
"Can You Feel TEH LURV Tonight" - Elton John
and let the pelting with rocks and garbage being for this riot-inciting pick...
"Stairway to Heaven" - Led Zeppelin (I love Zep, man, but this song is fucking KRYPTONITE)

I think that song may have been penned by catswilleatyou...

you really like
my automobile
you like the way
the wheels
roll
you like my seven inch
leather heels

I can't remember the rest, but that's one of those "so bad it's good" songs.

You people sicken me.

As it goes, Ten WORST Songs, Ever:

01. Anal Cunt, "Kyle from INCANTATION has a mustache"
02. Reggie & the Full Effect, "Megan is my Friend to the Max"
03. Limp Bizkit, "Counterfeit"
04. Puff Daddy & Ma$e, "Been around the world"
05. Afghan Whigs, "John the Baptist"
06. Promise Ring, "Red & Blue Jeans"
07. Hives, "Hate to say 'I told you so'"
08. Beck, "Round the Bend"
09. Matchbox 20, "Long Day" *
10. Pearl Jam, "Rearviewmirror"


* I may enjoy this song, actually.


np: Meatmen, "Centurions of Rome"; jp: "Camel Jockeys Suck", "Lesbian Death Dirge", & "Toolin' for Anus"... Meatmen, great band, or greatest band?

1/2, actually. And for your horrible transgression...

You will walk to the liquor store, stat.

You will purchase me a high-quality sixpack.

You will then mail it, along with an apology letter, to me, right the fuck now.




How the hell can you not tell the difference between their voices?!?!!! How did nobody back me up while I was in class?

Easy list...

Amber - 311
Dance Dance - Falloutboy
All Star - Smashmouth
One Week - Barenaked Ladies
Your Body is a Wonderland - John Mayer

Michael McDonald - Takin' It to the Streets

I think the Rabbit was pointing out that you mentioned "Ebony & Ivory" which was Stevie Wonder & Paul McCartney (0/1), but pulled a line from "The Girl is Mine" rather than "Ebony & Ivory" (0/2).

PS:

Steve Miller Band, "Abracadabra"
Cutting Crew, "I Just Died In Your Arms Tonight"
Mr. Big, "To Be With You".

Rupert Holmes Escape (Pina Colada Song) (only funny in Dirty Work)

some of you are retards.

So what's the point of this thread? To show how cool we are?

It's no shmoo poll, that's fer sure.



It came up in another thread how some songs are more terribuller than others and thusly I started this monstrosity.
