Worst song of all time...

[Mara]

Starship may have built this city on rock and roll, but Blender magazine is tearing it down, naming the band's "We Built This City" as the worst song ever.

And you're vote for the worst song of all time is......

[Chylde Roland]

hmmm. I'm not sure offhand... I tend to block out painful experiences, so I'm going to have ot think some more about this one!

Who are they kidding! They must have an underlying reason for picking that song, and several others on the list. :rolleyes:

If Paul Simon's hauntingly melodic and enduring The Sounds of Silence is on their 50 Worst Songs of All Time list, they are obviously braindead oafs. So who cares what they think?

Then again, we are talking about CNN.com, so we already knew they had their collective heads securely implanted up each others butts with their panting, pandering, mass media groveling, lapdog brown noses. Therefore, this should come as no surprise to any of us.

CNN is to real jounalism as Archie Bunker is to serious, intelligent, well educated, conservative thinkers.

Cheers, Terry

Anything by Yoko Ono or Crash Test Dummies. :lol:

I second that! :yes:

[Cloudw4lker]

anything by most female artists/bands aimed at girls from guys.

[Cougar]

well actually i think the worst song ever is william hung's "she bangs" :joker:

but they saying this is song is really bad. so i think william hung is actually better than somebody out there.. :joker:

[Les Whinan]

Anything from Celine Dion, Whitney Houston or Brian Adams. :scared:

[Feuerwizard]

Celine Dion is not that bad. "Anything by most female artists/bands aimed at girls from guys" Second that

[Gotanypop]

They left out the song that is BY FAR the worst ever: "Party All The Time" -Eddie Murphy :eek:

[Gary V.]

Anything Hillary Duff sings.

[Les Whinan]

Celine Dion is not that bad.

This from Mr. Tool/Rammstein. :p:

[Chylde Roland]

Celine's awful! Plus she's a smacktard in real life, too. I have no respect for her because of her showboating, idiotic nature.

I also can't stand Bruce Springsteen and Mariah Carey, because they're both dumber than a sack of rocks (combined).

[RHooks]

Bill Shatner's version of Mr. Tambourine Man.

[Emjayex]

All you US of A / Canadian guys have really had it easy. The only contender for worst song of all time is the UK TV presenter (from the 80's) Timmy Mallet with his ear-achingly awful rendition of Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Yellow Polka Dot Bikini. Do a Kazaa search for it and realise just how low some people can get.

No, they included it in paragraph five of the article linked in the original post above.

Yes it sucked badly but was not the worst song of all time. Neither was their top pick or many others on the list.

Happy Birthday To You is the worst song of all time.

Cheers, Terry

[Gaim Mastr]

You referring to the classic/traditional "Happy Birthday" song ??

Short, cheery, to the point, only sung on specific occasions....... one of the greatest songs of all time. :yes:

Yes but it's also sung more poorly by more people (young, old, drunk and sober) including friends, family, associates, total strangers and waiters more often, loudly and many times in the most embarrasing places than any other song in history. It's a truly a horrible thing that haunts you all your life. I'd love to see it outlawed.

:blush: I only looked at the poll. Makes me somehow relieved that it was on there though.

[MasterChief]

Whatever that godforsaken band is Cougar keeps listening to lately, god I swear I'll kill him if I hear one of those songs again

[Ojnod]

Emo. Go whine somewhere else, punks :p:

[Mr. Natural]

I think Rhooks and Gaim Mastr's mention of Yoko might be on the right track. Allow me to submit this (rtsp://www.cmgworldwide.com/music/tim/music/tim_tiptoe.ra) for your speculation. (requires real player or ra capable player) For you old farts who might know the name and if you don't have real player, then I'll mention it's Tiny Tim.

[RHooks]

Ooh. Forgot about him. For you younger guys, he was the William Hung of our generation.

[Terry Penrod]

TinyTim might be a good choice not just for horrendous songs (most famous for Tiptoe Through The Tulips) and a truly terrible falsetto voice (self-accompanied by a silly little ukelele no less) but also for his totally ridiculous stage persona (a long, black satin cape with a long-pointy nose, pasty white skin and long, black stragglely hair) and his downright strange personality.

Oddly though he actually had a top 40 hit and was something of a cultural phenomenon whose weird wedding to a woman half his age was held on national TV on the Tonight Show hosted by Johnny Carson.

Cheers, Terry

Hey, I know I'm punchy (3 hours sleep and 12 hours of AirBus engine hum), but I just found a fun game with Terry's post!

Substitute Tiny Tim with Michael Jackson, and Tongiht Show w/ Johnny Carson w/ MTV Music Awards...

Hilarity doth ensue!

Who did leave those dogs out anyway? They never answered the question...
