View Full Version : Your worst song of all time
Bombardier 11-09-2004, 08:36 AM For some reason I'm in a real music mood this week.
Okay, so I was wondering if everybody had one song that absolutely drove them up the damn wall. Seems like there's a few songs on the radio that they've been playing consistently forever that are just plain terrible.
I won't say mine for a while to see if someone else hits it. The song I'm thinking of is about ten years old, was a big hit, and is still played all the time on so-called rock and alternative stations (among other stations). And no, it's nothing by Stone Temple Pilots :D .
neils7147933 11-09-2004, 08:42 AM My choice is easy:
LFO's "Summertime Girls"
LFO
Summer Girls
Yeah...I like it when the girls stop by.. In the summer
Do you remember...Remember when we met..That summer
N.K.O.T.B. had a bunch of hits
Chinese food makes me sick
And I think it's fly when girls stop by for the summer
For the summer
I like girls that wear Abercrombie and Fitch
I'd take her if I had one wish
But she's been gone since that summer..Since that summer
Hip Hop Marmalade sPIC AND sPAN
Met you one summer and it all began
You're the best girl that I ever did see
The great Larry BIRD JERSEY 33
When you take a sip you buzzlike a hornet
Billy Shakespere wrote a whole bunch of sonnets
Call me Willy Whistle cuz I can't speak baby
Sumthin in your eyes went and drove me crazy
Now I can't 4get you and it makes me mad
Left one day and never came back
Stayed all summer then went back home
Macauly Culkin wasn't Home Alone
Fell deep in love but now we ain't speakin
Michael J Fox was Alex P Keaton
When I met you I said my name was Rich
You look like a girl from Abercrombie and Fitch
CHORUS
Cheery Pez cold crush rock star boogie
Used to hate school so I had to play hookie
Always been hip to the BBOY Style
Known to act wild and mak a girl smile
Love New Edition and the Candy Girl
Reminds me of you becuz you rock my world
You come from Georgia where the peaches grow
They drink lemonade and speak real slow
You love hip hop and rock n roll
Dad took off when you were 4 years old
There was a good man named Paul REVERE
I feel much better baby when you're near
You love fun dip and cherry COKE
I like the way you laugh when I tell a joke
When I met you I said my name was Rich
You look like a girl from Abercrombie and Fitch
CHORUS
In the summertime girls got it goin on
Shake and wigle to a hip hop song
Summertime girls are the kind I like
I'll steal your honey like I stole your bike
Bugaloo shrimp and pogo sticks
My mind takes me back there oh so quick
Let you off the hook like my man MR. Lipit
Think about that summer and I bug cuz I miss it
Like the color purple macaroni and cheese
Ruby red slippers and a bunch oftrees
Call you up but whats the use
I like Kevin Bacon but I hate Footloose
Came in the door said it before
I think I'm over you but I'm really not sure
When I met you I said my name was Rich
You look like a girl from Abercrombie and Fitch
CHORUS
In the summer girls come and summer girls go
Some are worth while and some are so so
Summer girls come and summer girls go
Some are worth while and sme are so so
Summertime girls got it goin on
Shake and wiggle to a hip hop song
Summertime girls are the kind I like
I'll steal your honey like I stole your bike
CHORUS

Is your song "Name" by the Goo goo dolls?
Bombardier 11-09-2004, 09:04 AM Is your song "Name" by the Goo goo dolls?
Nope...that would be a good one, though.
LuKahnLi 11-09-2004, 09:05 AM Just about anything by the current crop of popstars make me want to slit my wrists.
Ranger2408 11-09-2004, 09:11 AM i remember this one song i heard on the radio they played at work back home.
I have no clue what it is called but it goes a little something like this
the rain on my window pane is driving me insane
cause you ain't around
Boy i'm goin' down cause you aint around
I'm goin down
I'm goin down
woo woo woo woo (instrumental noise)
i ran upstairs every time they played the thing, it drove me nuts.
Another one was quite old
It's a family affair, it's a family affaaaiiir
Oooooooohhhh wooooooowwww
:mad:
over and over, drove me barmy
I hate 90% of music

lol, sounds like a song Dirk Diggler would have written in Boogie Nights.
jabsRstiff 11-09-2004, 09:48 AM Bomb....
Is it that song from Blind Melon ?
jabsRstiff 11-09-2004, 09:50 AM A lot of the "grunge" & alternative groups (of the 90's) blew out the ass.
I really loathed that song from the group Silverchair. I thought it was a Pearl Jam song.....& it made me despise Pearl Jam. Sorry, Eddie Vedder, I now know it wasn't you & your boys.
In this song, he keeps saying something about a "fat boy, fat boy"....I think that's what he's saying.
Bombardier 11-09-2004, 09:56 AM Bomb....
Is it that song from Blind Melon ?
No...actually, I don't mind that song too much. But don't tell anybody :D
Here's a hint: the song was from a singer, not a band (though they have a backup band, so it's not like Celine Dion or something).

Man, Silverchair had that "Anthem for the year 2000" or something song a while back that was just terrible.
I liked Nirvana a ton but all that stuff had messed up modern "rock" so much. Now we have crap like Nickelback because of them.
Explosivo 11-09-2004, 09:59 AM becuase I have to think a bit for the songs I really, really hate, I'll just add a quick one.
That song thats fairly new and I think its by one of the popular new rock bands, and it goes "I like the way you slap my ass". I hate that song.
SonnyG8R 11-09-2004, 10:10 AM This is the worst song ever.
Run Joey Run
David Geddes
Daddy please don't, it wasn't his fault, he means so much to me
Daddy please don't, we're gonna get married...just you wait and see.
She called me up, late last night, she said Joe, don't come over
My dad and I just had a fight, and he stormed out the door
I've never seen him act his this way, my God, hes going crazy
He says he's gonna make you pay, for what we've done, he's got a gun, so
Run Joey Run Joey Run
Daddy please don't, it wasn't his fault, he means so much to me
Daddy please don't, we're gonna get married...just you wait and see.
I got in my car and I drove like mad, till I reached Julie's place
She ran to me, with tears in her eyes, and bruises on her face
All at once, I saw him there, sneaking up behind me, WATCH OUT!
Then Julie yelled, he's got a gun, and she stepped in front of me
Suddenly, a shot rang out, and I saw Julie falling
I ran to her, I held her close, when I looked down, my hands were red,
and heres the last words Julie said...
Daddy please don't, it wasn't his fault, he means so much to me
Daddy please don't, we're gonna get married.....aaahhh..ahhhh
ahhhh....ahhhhh
Run Joey run Joey run Joey run Joey run Joey run
The second worst song is Whoop, there it is
The third worst song is Friends in low places

The first song is Mary J Blige "I'm Going Down"
jabsRstiff 11-09-2004, 10:23 AM I always belived this was the worst song ever....& I was blown away when MAXIM magazine released their picks for worst ever....& this was their #1.
It's the ultimate cheapo-studio song. The music is plastic. The lyrics are embarrassing.
Starship's "We Built This City" -
We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll
Say you don't know me, or recognize my face
Say you don't care who goes to that kind of place
Knee deep in the hoopla, sinking in your fight
Too many runaways eating up the night
Marconi plays the mamba, listen to the radio, don't you remember
We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll
Someone's always playing corporation games
Who cares they're always changing corporation names
We just want to dance here, someone stole the stage
They call us irresponsible, write us off the page
Marconi plays the mamba, listen to the radio, don't you remember
We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll
It's just another Sunday, in a tired old street
Police have got the choke hold, oh, [but] we just lost the beat
Who counts the money underneath the bar
Who rides the wrecking ball into our guitars
Don't tell us you need us, 'cos we're [the ship of] fools
Looking for America, crawling through your schools
(I'm looking out over that Golden Gate bridge
Out on another gorgeous sunny Saturday, I've seen that [bumer-to-bumper]traffic)
Don't you remember (remember)
(Here's your favorite radio station, in your favorite radio city
The city by the bay, the city that rocks, the city that never sleeps)
Marconi plays the mamba, listen to the radio, don't you remember
We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll
jabsRstiff 11-09-2004, 10:26 AM Has anyone ever heard the song "Butterfly Kisses" ?
It's so bad, I have to listen to it intensely, when it's on.
The guy singing it sounds like he could use a 5th of Metamucil.
Bombardier 11-09-2004, 10:26 AM No more guesses for mine yet? Okay, I'll give you a hint that should blow it wide open: the song's from a female singer (and it's not a rap or R&B artist).
Any takers?
Explosivo 11-09-2004, 10:28 AM Lets not forget about that steaming pile of crap "Macarena".

"If God Were One Of Us", by Joan Osborne ?

Any takers?
If not Joan Osborne, is it Sheryl Crow "All I wanna Do?"

That song is wretched. So is that one where the guy (maybe even the same one) sings about the little girl who wants to buy a pair of used shoes for her terminally ill mother for Christmas.
Anyone heard that one? It makes you want to cry, not just because of the subject matter, but because you're actually listening to it.
Bombardier 11-09-2004, 10:31 AM Good guesses, guys...still wrong :D .
You're getting close, though. Keep thinking of more female singers from that time (that are still around now).

Was that the same survey that VH1 had a countdown? If not, it was voted the worst on two polls. They called it the "Most Awesomely Bad Songs" ever. I guess they had to be hits to be considered.

You Were Meant for Me by Jewel
jabsRstiff 11-09-2004, 10:34 AM I'll give you some grating songs from the 90's to now....
"Give It Away"- Red Hot Chili Peppers
"I Wanna Sex You Up"- Color Me Badd (worst name for a group, EVER)
Anything from Blink 182
"Hey Jealousy"- Gin Blossoms

Miriah or Whitey
Bombardier 11-09-2004, 10:54 AM Alanis Morrisette's "You Oughtta KNow"
I think it's a decent song, actually.
Close enough! Actually it's "Ironic" that really bugs me. In case you're forgotten how terrible this song really is, have a look at the lyrics:
An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day
It's a black fly in your chardonnay
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
Isn't it ironic... don't you think
Chorus:
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought... it figures
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
"Well, isn't this nice." And Isn't this ironic ... don't you
think?
Repeat Chorus
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think evertyhing's gone wrong and everything blows up
In your face
A traffic jam when you're already late
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It's like 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams
and then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn't it ironic... don't you think
A little too ironic.. and yeah I really do think...
Repeat Chorus
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
And life has a funny funny way of helping you out
helping you out
10,000 spoons? Mr. Play-it-Safe? WTF?
The incredible thing is that this song was a huge hit. I mean, these are possibly the stupidest, most insipid, ignorant, pretentious lyrics ever composed. The chorus is unbearably annoying, and the video was ridiculous.

I'm not a big fan of "Ironic", but I like Ms. Morrisette.
The first single from the last album - most of Jagged Little Pill, the new single from the new album...

You could even say she is God...
technically she was, in 2 movies.

You're killing me...2 movies? (I can only think of Dogma)
I'm not a fan, though I agree that that one song is not really representative of her other stuff. It's not like she had total control over the production of that album, either. Maybe she's a little embarassed about it too.
neils7147933 11-09-2004, 02:53 PM She was also in Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back. A bit of trivia: it's quite possibly the only time when an actor/actress has appeared in the ending credits PRIOR to their onscreen appearance. She kind of has a Porky-Pig like send off after the ending credits where she makes that weird non-verbal sound she makes in Dogma and plays to the camera before the movie completely ends.

anything from celine dion.
i may ad , anything from canada ( remember bryan adams ?)

Damn, I like "Locked Up" too
nohero 11-09-2004, 09:44 PM It has to be that song from Missy Elliot where she sings the chorus backwards.
Pure garbage.
In fact, Missy Elliot probably has at least 8 of my top 10 most hated songs of all-time. No talent whatsoever, an annoying voice, terrible rhymes, repetitively stupid beats and she's the 2nd ugliest woman on the planet (If she's even really a woman).
Whoever dissed Goo Goo Dolls, Bryan Adams and Gin Blossoms need their heads checked too. People that play their own instruments, write their own lyrics (THAT ACTUALLY MEAN SOMETHING) and sell hundreds of millions of albums worldwide deserve a little more respect.

jabsRstiff 11-10-2004, 07:05 AM Limp Bizkit is quite possibly the worst band ever.
Embarrassing !

They are a glorified bar band.
