What's the WORST song ever? - Page 4

ladysycamore · 08-16-2004, 02:06 PM

ANYthing by Eminem usually does it for me. Punk ass mother fucker.

Let's differentiate. There is a difference between a truly horrendous song. and one that has merely been overplayed on the radio.

my standard radio rant

Radio is now a nearly complete monopoly. As much as I hate what Microsoft has done to the software industry, I hate clear channel more.

I know there is good music being made out there. It's a darn shame that all you can find on the radio is homogenized pap.

I only listen to NPR and talk stations lately.

Our local public radio station has a couple decent music shows throughout the day and usually a good Jazz show in the evenings. I tend to find the stuff I end up buying by listening. I rarely switch to anything else anymore.

And you're splitting hairs. Overplayed is one of the key factors in determining *my* personal "worst song ever".

Yeah, Gary Puckett had those crappy songs, I'll have to agree with that. His voice gets on my nerves, too. Britney Spears is a teenybopper without talent who sounds just like every other teenybopper without talent out there nowadays.

One song I just cannot stand, though, is Spirit in the Sky. Don't know who sings it, don't care. It's annoying, and it sucks.

Ugh -- I'd forgotten about "You'll be a Woman Soon" -- yes, equally vile. As to Puckett's voice, he and all the other caterwaulers of both genders (Dion, Carey, etc.) fit in a category I call "Sounds like they're swallowing a bucketful of cum." Ironic, considering Puckett's subject matter.

I don't know if anyone around here ever listen to Country Western (its one of my occasional secret vices). Here's a song by Toby Keith that's still getting some air time:

American girls and American guys will always stand up and salute;
Will always recognize
When we see ol' glory flying,
There's a lot of men dead,
So we can sleep in peace at night when we lay down our head.

My daddy served in the army,
Where he lost his right eye.
But he flew a flag out in our yard 'til the day that he died.
He wanted my mother, my brother, my sister and me
To grow up and live happy in the land of the free.

Now this nation that I love has fallen under attack.
A mighty sucker punch came flying in from somewhere in the back.
Soon as we could see clearly through our big black eye,
Man we lit up your world like the Fourth of July.

Hey Uncle Sam put your name at the top of his list,
And the Statue of Liberty started shaking her fist.
And the eagle will fly,
And there's gonna be Hell,
When you hear Mother Freedom start ringing her bell!
It's gonna feel like the whole wide world is raining down on you...
Brought to you courtesy of the Red, White and Blue!

Oh, Justice will be served and the battle will rage.
This big dog will fight when you rattle his cage
You'll be sorry that you messed with the US of A
'Cuz we'll put a boot in your ass
It's the American way.

Hey Uncle Sam put your name at the top of his list,
And the Statue of Liberty started shaking her fist.
And the eagle will fly,
And there's gonna be Hell,
When you hear Mother Freedom start ringing her bell!
And it'll feel like the whole wide world is raining down on you...
Brought to you courtesy of the Red, White and Blue!

Of the Red, White and Blue..
Of my Red, White and Blue...

This song makes me want to puke every time I hear it!

I'm not a country music fan, but that song is definitely the worst of the worst. The "boot in your ass" line makes me cringe...embarrassing. I think this was one of the songs on VH-1's "worst" list recently.

Then there is the cunundrum poor, maligned (she said with sarcasm) Britney Spears found herself in when she was "not a girl, not yet a woman"--betcha a lot of teeny-bopper boys beat off to that one. Yuck.

Trilby · 08-17-2004, 06:09 PM

On the other hand--I am currently (as in right now) listening to Harry Belafonte. He's soooooo good. Day-O!

Sorry---
