Interesting sidebar on TINY TIM
First Time I ever saw/met him

I was attending a Bill Cosby show and he sat down behind me with a shopping bag full of weird things like bologna and cheeses--the ladies were all over him

The next night I am watching Johnny Carson and there he is on the show---WOW

There were times he opened for local NYC acts for simply car fare and a few bucks thrown

He actually as a great guy

With all due respect....I can live with goofy...I can live with strange...I can even live with songs I simply detest...

However...

I cannot live with syrupy songs that try WAY too hard...in the process take themselves FAR too seriously...


Having My Baby - Paul Anka “Let’s back this bus up....How the heck did you even get a date?”

Seasons In The Sun - Terry Jacks. “You had joy, You had fun, You had a season in the sun... But your whine and this song, thank-ful-ly have all gone.“

Sometimes When We Touch - Dan Hill “The honesty’s too much?...You want the honesty?....You can’t handle the honesty!“

Feelings - Morris Albert “Feelings?..Nothing more than reelings, (and wretchings for that matter)”

You Light Up My Life - Debbie Boone (OSCAR WINNING SONG) “ Turn out those lights...this party was definitely over a long time ago“

Wildfire - Michael Murphy “In the end you wised up...you let them all go...the horse, the song, your singing career “

I Write The Songs - Barry Manilow “You may write them...but I can tell you were you ought to stick this one“

Anything by Meat Loaf...”However, have to give him credit...with a voice like that and screaming the way he does, Meat Loaf is an excellent name”

Anything by air supply..."No the nights are NOT better...only turning off my radio is”

I tend to think AFTERNOON DELIGHT is a day-trip to Wrigley Field to watch the Cardinals beat up on the Chicago Cubs.

The Tudors sang what had to be the worst song ever. They had the kindness to warn you in the middle of the song that it was also repetitive.

"Second verse, same as the first" ... key warning to turn off your radio during the playing of
"I'm Henry the Eight I Am"

Simple Horrible

I thought that was Herman's Hermits.

.
NO, That was 16 times since one verse is repeated...

I don't know if "'Enry the Eighth" is the WORST song ever, but it sure ranks right there with 'em.

I wanted to suggest it, but I didn't want to show my age!

As long as I'm showing my age (or at least my era), how about this one as, maybe not the WORST, but obnoxious, just the same.....Hooray for Hazel....by Tommy Roe....

Candy pop--"Seasons in the Sun"....don't remember the artist. Ranks up there with my other "fav", "Afternoon Delight".

Nirvana

[A young Terry Jacks, singing]

Everytime i watch this it is spring.
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun

Great song!

goodbye my friend, it's hard to die
when all the birds are singing in the sky

now that the spring is in the air
pretty girls are everywhere

"Think of me and i'll be there."
goodbye, papa, please pray for me

i was the black sheep of the family
"I don't know all these words

I have bought three turds
With my BB-gun I would kill birds"

we had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
but the hills that we climbed
were just seasons out of time

goodbye, michelle, my little one
"I was the apple of the shining sun.
And I have *** every week

All my tears are salty
I think that now I will start to leave"

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climbed
Were just seasons out of time
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the stars that we reached where just starfish on the beach.

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climbed
Were just seasons out of time

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the stars that we reached where just starfish on the beach.

2. You just had to like
Bad Moon Rising by Nirvana

I see a bad moon rising
I see trouble on the way
I see earthquakes and lightnin'
I see bad times today
Don't go 'round tonight
It's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise
I hear hurricanes a blowin'
I know the end is commin' soon
I fear rivers over flowing
I hear the voice of rage and ruin
Hope you got your things together
Hope you are quite prepared to die
Looks like we'er in for nasty weather
One eye is taken for an eye

3. My Sharona- another

Ooh, my little pretty one, my pretty one
When you gonna give me some time, Sharona
Ooh, you make my motor run, my motor run

While watching basketball last night a show promo reminded me of another song that wouldn't be missed if never played again ....

"Little Bit Country, Little Bit Rock N Roll" - Donny & Marie Osmond

I've listened to this clip eight times in a row and it gets less horrible each time. Give it a spin H³. You'll like it...or die trying!

Second verse (after the eighth time hearing it) is still remarkably the same as the first!: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=znv_sUPaKfE

We had mid-week games at Clemson this week and and a weekend Series against Furman. On the drives down and back we'd pass by this sign for "Enoree" ... and every time we did it, my wife would start signing that d*** song (guess it shows both our ages).

It's such a simplistic piece of drivel, I think she could even sing harmony simultaneous to the melody. It gave me a chance to practice my french under my breath though.

How about Paul Simons weakest effort ever "Kodachrome"

"Kodachrome"? I love that song!

And the "Second verse, same as the first" line, isn't that from "Hen-e-ry the Eighth" by Herman's Hermits?

"Comment joli cher, qui est ma chanson préférée!"


.

Specifically: "Cette chanson est une pile de merde!" (and reverting to french CAN get you by the language filter, even in the HSBBWeb ... "Vous ventilateur du football" ... worst curse I know).

Some of these songs are hideous but I'm telling you, you're not even close.

Musrat Love is the worst song ever.

Just try to make it through this video...

WARNING .Keep all firearms locked up.. or you may regret it!

==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.

Billy Don't be a Hero was by Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods and and then remade by Paper Lace.

Hey don't knock it, it was the first eight track tape I ever bought!

Sly and the Family Stone = my first 8-track. sounded good on a quadraphonic 8-track player in my car with the sound blasted.

One of my favorite lyrics is from Sly Stone's "Everyday People"--"And so on and so on and scooby dooby dooby---Ooh, sha sha IIIIiiiiiii'm an everyday people".

Irony ....

This thread returned to the top of the board while a promo for George Michael' American tour was on the radio.

"Wake Me Up Before You Go Go"

No, just go go! And don't come back.

Since I started this thread the bad songs are just jumping out at me. Yesterday I heard ....

"Popsicle Toes" by Michael Franks

It's hard to belive Diana Krall chose to put this song on one of her albums. For those who don't know Diana Krall is one of the great female jazz singers.

And she is the wife of Elvis Costello

Feeling's, nothing more then Feeling's.
Trying to forget my Feeling's of ?????

Of course I wooood my wife with this song.
I was such a sap??
EH

TR, I didn't know that!!!!! Thanks--I may need that little tid-bit someday!

Color My World was our prom song. It's a horrible song. Robert Lamb drones on and on. Focus on the music sometime. It's monotonous and repetitive.

****, ****, ****, ****, ****, ****
****, ****, ****, ****, ****, ****
****, ****, ****, ****, ****, ****
****, ****, ****, ****, ****, ****
****, ****, ****, ****, ****, ****
****, ****, ****, ****, ****, ****

Over and over and over in the background.

Is d*ng with a U that bad of a word? There was emphasis on the fourth d*ng in each line.
