The Worst Song Ever

[cavorting with nudists]

Uh.... OK, I just watched that  Actually, "Love Will Tear Us Apart" totally blows as a song.

Has anybody heard this new little gem, i dont know whats more rank this or My Neck My Back?

I don't know, I don't like it, but at the same time if all of pop music is just going to be dudes singing about their dicks all the time, as it seems to be, it's at least nice to have some diversity in terms of things you can be super grossed out by.

...No? Just me?

Speaking of dumb covers of good songs.

Dumb covers of dumb songs?

GLEE - "Hey Soul Sister" Full Performance (airing 11/30)

[ChixPox Party]

found this today.  unfortunately.  some 80's band from greece (which explains why you NEVER hear of bands from greece) covering the talking heads.  possibly the worst song i've ever, ever, ever heard.  i can't even listen to it all the way through.  if you can get through 1:30 of it, i owe you a donut.

Psycho - Psycho Killer

Donut time!  I don't mind this, honestly. It's self-consciously weird and just there, but also kinda funny too.
True, if we're not counting half-Greek George Michaels, Greece has been pretty sparse in its offerings, but it did make possible one incredible Vangelis vanity production via the group Aphrodite's Child -- the 666 2-LP.

I'm still waiting on those Greek Rembrettica 78s.

[dudep]

Unfortunately for you, buffcoat, these guys only release wax cylinders.

Maybe someone will manage to circulate a decent bootleg after the next time they perform at the shank.

After 8 years, I finally have the spelling!  Thanks, dude... ep.

[dudep]

You're welcome.  Eight years since a trip to Greece?  Or was your first encounter with Rembetika just really memorable?

[HeaveHo]

Do covers count?

If so, I nominate "Try a Little Tenderness" by (yes, that) Jack Webb.

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:

Ow.  Just..... ow.

With all due respect...


Ah, HELL no. It's awesome.

This is actually pretty good! I listened to it twice.

Even now, brokenCYDE makes me wish for some sort of Biblical hole to open up and swallow up Oklahoma.
