THE MACARANA(sp)

Or any other "line dancing" song.

The only purpose to these songs is to let the idiots who don't know how to dance the chance to avoid looking like a complete moron. To bad it doesn'T work.

That was on TotP2 a few weeks ago. Simply awful.

Missy Elliot - "Get Your Freak On" was quite bad, but I'm sure Westlife and Steps should get a mention.

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

"It's raining man", the Spice Girly version.

WHY do I hate this, you ask? Well, have you heard the simply rocking original? The new version, when compared to the original is so vastly inferior that my knowledge of english fails to wholly describe it. Really, it's only an excuse for Emma Bunton to gyrate and do gymnastics in front of that board in the video. Shameless attempt to profit on mild exhibitionism and an old classic.

It's the only one I can think of with a reason other than I simply hate the genre.

Anything by Westlife (or Westsh!te as I like to call 'em). They cover crap songs and make them even worse.

It's the kind of music that makes me want to go out and kill anyone who's bought anything by them.

Don't diss Britney though, she's a lot better than a lot of those imitations floating about.

At least if a song is catchy, then it has something going for it.

The worst would have to be some of the turgid Andrew Lloyd Webber songs I've had the misfortune to come across - not the famous ones, though they're bad enough, but the ones that have no discernable melody, structure or interest, and annoyingly self-conscious lyrics to boot.

The man's name was Joe Dolci, and the song was called Shaddupya Face. He re-emerged from somewhere a couple of years ago to do a rather creative acoustic version of Michael Jackson's Thriller on radio in Sydney. It was far superior to the original. It might even forgive his previous sins

"First Date"- Blink 182, neat video, terrible song, but not the worst...

... the worst was sung by some short, cubby Mexican dude with a frow-mullet . It was a horribly cheesy love song, and if anyone has any ideas on who is mysterious man is, please, enlighten me.

Time for a history lesson Tired of ads?

Brittany Spears? Wham UK? You people are too young. I'm sorry to be the one to do this, but you must all, right now, confront the immense cultural horror that was the year 1974. It's hits, offered from my ever-scarred memory, starting with the one-hit wonders and moving on to more established acts:

"Seasons in the Sun" - Terry Jacks
"The Night Chicago Died" - Paper Lace
"Billy, Don't Be a Hero" - Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods
"Run Joey Run" - David Geddes
"Hooked on a Feeling" - Blue Suede, I think
"Longfellow Serenade" (bad even by Neil Diamond standards)
"Having My Baby" - Paul Anka
"I'm Leaving It All Up To You" - Donny and Marie
"Sunshine On My Sholder" - John Denver
"My Melody of Love" - Bobby Vinton (you've probably never heard of it. Lucky you. Vinton's basically a lounge singer, and some of the lyrics were in Polish. "nuff said.)
Not one, but TWO Helen Reddy songs: "Angie Baby" and "You and Me Against the World"
Not one, not two, but THREE "novelty" hits:
"Monster Mash" - Bobby "Boris" Pickett and his Crypt-Kicker 5
"The Streak" - Ray Stevens (for the historically or culturally deprived, "streaking" was the 70s fad of running through a public event naked, which reached it's high water-mark when someone streaked at either the 74 or 75 Oscars)
"The Lord's Prayer" - Sister Janet Mead (I'm not making that up)

Tremble, mortals! And yet, for all of that, my own pick is the execreble (all together now): "She ran calling Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiildfire..."
