All Time Loser List

So many....

Devo - Whip It

Actually, anything from Devo is terrible imho.

How about Motor Head - Lemmy Kilmeister and the Ace of Spades? He has the biggest mole in rock & roll btw.

Most of the later stuff by Styx I hated.

When I was a kid, I hated Bohemian Rapsody but I have grown to love that song - a classic indeed. There are several Queen offerings that I hate. Bicycle comes to mind but there are others. Crazy Little Thing Called Love is another.

"Seasons in the Sun" by Terry Jacks AND

"If" by Bread

Oh man!!! You're knocking on BREAD? Oh well, maybe you have to be in the mood for it, huh?

How about anything by Captain and Tennille?

I like My sharona, personally.

I'm trying to think of a Britney Spears song to throw into the mix, but there are so many candidates...

By the way, did anyone else catch her on "How I Met Your Mom" last night? She plays stupid perfectly. Do you think she's had any practice?

Many groups/performers are one hit wonders but they are not losers---they are no different than a baseball player who took the shot and had a cup of coffee in the BIGS--he may not stick but is he a loser?

Anyone who goes for the brass ring is not as loser---he did what others dis not have the guts or talent to do

TR, How does Sanjaya fit into that equation?

OMG its been a long time since I laughed this hard.

" Reunited"
( cant remember who sung it )

"Muskrat Love" by The Captain And Tenille.


How that ever got airplay I'll never know.

I think sportsdad&fan has a winner. There can't possibly be a worse song than that one. Not

What the heck is a Sanjaya?

"Julie, Do Ya Love Me" by Bobby Sherman

"Leader of the Pack"

Even as a music-hungry teeny-bopper I would turn the radio off rather than listen....

I knew he was gonna ask that.

I was recently listening a ton of the Billboard top 100 songs from the past few decades and this one came up:

Woody, don't you mean Knack it off?

Hmm. What IS a Sanjaya?

And where is the Wood Man when you really need him???

"Leader of the Pack"

From a business conference in New Orleans, floating around somewhere is a karaoke video of me as the "Leader of the Pack" in a leather jacket on a tricycle, while some female business associates sing the song and fawn over me. Good thing I never ran for office.

Thank gaaaaaaaaaaaawd-ness I am not alone in my confessions for the day.
Thanks to RJM
Nothin' like diving to the bottom of the ocean with me!
( Thats a true and loyal fellow poster friend, if I ever knew one! )

Well, I dont know where Woody is but I do know where Wickpedia is.

What is a Sanjaya?

According to Wickpedia:
Sanjaya is Sanjaya Joseph Malakar (pronounced /sænˈdʒaɪə ˈmɑːləkɑr/; Bengali: সঞ্জয় মালাকার)[1] (born September 10, 1989) was a finalist on the sixth season of American Idol. Malakar gained national attention on American Idol, advancing to 7th place with public votes despite being badly received by the show's judges (particularly Simon Cowell).[2]

"Ben" by Michael Jackson and I always hated "Hey Jude".

Anything by Eddie Money.

Also, Sister Golden Hair. Our coaches actually put that song on the game CD to play between ABs. Let's get fired up, shall we?

Eddie Money has more pocket change that any of us have in the bank account

"Billy Don't Be a Hero" Paper Lace
"Brand New Key" Melanie
"Chick-a-boom (don't Ya Jes' Love It)" Daddy Dewdrop


==edit==
SSMom, I didn't think this was for confession of guilty pleasures. These certainly are not mine! But for some dang reason, I can't get these horrid melodies out of my head now.

==edit again==
I'm slow, SSMom. I remembered what you'd like us to forget.

How that ever got airplay I'll never know.

First, "Reunited" was by Peaches and Herb wasn't it?

Second, "If" by Bread??? Come on, one of the best "Honey Bunny Songs" EVER!

"MUSKRAT LOVE" - could I tell you a story! It fits right up there with the ALL TIME LOSER SONGS for me.

luvbb, I forgot all about that HORRIBLE Afternoon Delite! AAAHHHHH! I hate that song.

How about "Dance with me" - 8th grade agony

...a little more recent:

Hot Blooded - Foreigner.
Turn Me Loose - Loverboy.

I have a headache.

One more....Minnie Ripperton's "Lovin' You". Incredible 5 octave range that can shatter glass and ear drums!

luvbb,

That's Starland Vocal Band.

Taffy Nivert is a very distant cousin of mine. She also co-wrote John Denver's "Take Me Home, Country Roads".

(No comment on that AD song.)

quote:

Minnie Ripperton's "Lovin' You"

OMG I had forgotten about that one too!

"Don't You Want Me, Baby". Insidious, evil song. Once heard (or thought of heh-heh-heh), it can stay in your mind for as long as 72 hours.

That song is terrible. Many outstanding lowlights mentioned in this thread.

How about Dexie's Midnight Runners??? Come on Eileen - terrible.

Anything by Wham or George Michael qualifies for me.

Leo Sayer - You Make Me Feel Like Dancing

I Love the Nightlife - Alicia Bridges

OMG.... I remeber those Dang birds chirping in "Lovin' You".... ah ah ah ah .... that was horrible.
I'll also throw in "you light up my life"...

How about ADAM ANT ?

TR--You're right. I'm more familiar with the cover version from Peaches and Herb.

From Wikipedia:

"Love Is Strange" was a 1957 Top 40 hit for Mickey & Sylvia, originally released on Groove Records, a division of RCA. The song features a sinuous guitar riff and provocative verbal byplay between Mickey and Sylvia as well as a Latin American beat and a strong melodic hook. The lyrics consist of just eight lines, each of which uses the same basic tune, with some variances in the harmony. The role of the lead guitar, the bright recording technique, and the lush melody had an influence that can be clearly heard in many more modern rock songs, notably "Day Tripper" and other guitar-driven Beatles songs. Dave "Baby" Cortez, used the same break riff of "Love is Strange", on his 1962 hit "Rinky Dink", and got sued for copying down that melodic riff, and had to pay thousands of dollars in damages to both Mickey and Sylvia.
...
The Everly Brothers released a rendition in 1965 as a single and on their "Beat & Soul" album. In 1967, the duo Peaches and Herb had Top 20 success with their own cover version of the song. ....

How about the Thong Song?

worst song ever...Wildfire. That had to be sort of a true story didn't it? How could you make up such a sad story.

She comes down from Yellow Mountain
On a dark flat land she rides
On a pony she named Wildfire
With a whirlwind by her side
On a cold Nebraska night

Oh they say she died one winter
When there came a killin' frost
And the pony she name Wildfire
Busted down his stall
In a blizzard he was lost

She ran calling Wildfire
She ran calling Wildfire
She ran calling Wildfire

Eddie Murphy "Party All The Time". (Did he really take himself serious)
