Any Simple Plan song. And most of the new Green Day stuff.

here here! I also hate that new System of a Down song..."The Most Loneliest Day of My Life" What is that? It's bad grammar that's what it is! I can't handle that song.
And I'm with you on the new Green Day stuff...it's way overrated.

Actually, I'd say punk music died with the birth of new wave, long before Green Day came to be. Not that I don't like new wave, but punk music was never the same since. Oh, and I've probably mentioned it somewhere on the forum before, but Lady in Red by Chris DeBurgh is the worst song ever. No question. It is one of the most (unintentionally) creepy songs I ever heard. |

You guys crazy. Whether it's punk or not (and I doubt they'd try to pin a label on themselves; as, you know, the whole point of punk is to defy all labels), at least 80% of the songs on Idiot = money.
As for the worst song ever, it's no longer in contention- Dave Barry and America determined it a few years back. It's "MacArthur Park." (Though personally, I'd nominate "Achy Breaky Heart" as being damn close.)

Well I'll say Cotton Eye Joe just because the song is so incredibly annoying, but I'm feeling Red, Red Wine because that's one of the few songs that I have the physical reaction of my stomach lurching when I hear it.
...I'm thinking that might just be me though.

I don't know if it's the worst song ever, but I believe the Black-Eyed Peas song "My Humps" is the worst song of last year.

Dave Barry and America determined it a few years back. It's "MacArthur Park." Though, to be fair, it was masterfully rewritten by Weird Al to become "Jurassic Park", a personal favourite of mine from his repertoire. |

Well I'll say Cotton Eye Joe just because the song is so incredibly annoying... I went to high school in a farm town. The sort where you feel like you're in a movie when that song comes on, because everyone can and does dance in sync to it. Yes, we all square danced in unison. Sigh. No, I don't listen to country music. I must say that more people at my school listened to 50 Cent than Big & Rich, yet we exhibited a frightfully Orwellian response to the insightful lyrics "Where did you come from, where did you go / Where did you come from, Cotton Eye Joe?" Anyway, I'd say "In the Air Tonight", because I grind my teeth at the opening notes. I HATE it. I blame my dad's choice of "easy listening" radio stations back when I wasn't allowed to request a station change. I will bear listening to Norwegian death metal easier than "easy listening" radio stations (yes, I always have to say "easy listening" with quotation marks, because it ain't that easy to listen to). |

I don't really like Phil Collins to much either.In the air tonight is a okay song in the beggining. Fun fact: the song was used in the jean claudde van damme movie BLOOD SPORT

Wish I could think of this...man, so many bad songs out there. There are so many songs that shouldn't have been written or recorded. But before we go into this, what is the virtue of a song? What is its excellence, its "arete?" What makes a song a good song? I would like some responses for this.
Anyway, in my opinion the worst song ever is probably a tie; anything that is by a band under the title of "boy band" that does not play their own instruments.

Well I'll say Cotton Eye Joe just because the song is so incredibly annoying. Hmm... just the techno version by Rednex, or the original slave song from the 1800's? And Magill, you're right on about "My Humps." The DJ actually played it at our wedding, his only misfire, and Lady Luck and I were both too involved socializing with relatives to go ask him to cut it. Even now, we both cringe at the thought that our wedding day involved Fergie proclaiming her lovely lady lumps. -D |

Are you serious Drew?The D.J actually played My Humps at your wedding? Why? Why would any one think it would be appropiate to play a song about Gold digging at someone's wedding? Man,Thats mean.
