The Worst Song Ever
« on: February 05, 2009, 08:52:55 PM »
Sometimes I wish I had a time machine just so I could go back to call in on topics I missed.

Because the worst song ever, no matter what anyone says, is "Take Me Home Tonight" by Eddie Money.

I think Tom was right with the first Worst Song Ever show - The Load Out is as bad as it gets.

The Load Out has the benefit of not nearly ruining Be My Baby

Centerfield by Fogerty is as bad as it gets as far as I am concerned.

It is a tie between "What's Up?" by the 4 Non Blondes and "I Believe I Can Fly" R. Kelly.  Both of those songs make me want to put my head in the oven.

Tom needs to put together a compilation album of worst songs.  Perhaps a 2 CD set, the second CD being his "commentary" on the songs.

He should record intros to each song ala Will Ferrell as Ron Burgundy on the Anchorman soundtrack.

The last awful song I heard was "Young" by Hollywood Undead. Thanks for that junk, Rock Band 2.

But when we speak of the truly dreadful, "Cowboy Star" has got to be in the top 5.

The Gran Torino "theme song" that Clint Eastwood performs at the end of that movie is one of the worst songs I've heard in years. His singing voice sounds like he had both lungs surgically removed.

The Clint Eastwood/Ray Charles duet "Beers to You" from Every Which Way You Can is also really really bad.

I second this. It's absolutely bizarre.

I third it.  I started laughing.  The only laughs of that entire evening, actually. 

What a rough movie.  Ugh.

MY VOTE goes for "Hotel California"

Fake reggae voice, vibraslap (I'm sure it's in there somewhere), unintelligible lyrics.  That song is the worst.

I really do not want to step on anybody's toes here by pointing out how wrong they are because it is probably just an innocent matter of their not having actually heard this, THE ABSOLUTE WINNER of Worst Song Ever:
