Schlock of Ages-The 90's

[Czarcasm]

Let us narrow down the bad rock song list down a bit, o.k.?
This list is for ghodawful rock or pop that actually made it onto the Billboard top 20 list in the 90's. Something like I'm A Barbie Girl by Aqua. :(

[Coldfire]

*inhales...*

I'M BLUE DA BA DEE DA BA DIE
I'M BLUE DA BA DEE DA BA DIE
I'M BLUE DA BA DEE DA BA DIE
I'M BLUE DA BA DEE DA BA DIE

Bad enough for ya?

[xizor]

2 words: Rico Suave

[Drain Bead]

Anyone remember Nelson? Oh, yeah, Flypsyde does...

[Me!! Joe!!!]

"I Just Wanna Fly" by Sugar Ray really takes the award for stupidest, most pointless hit song of the 90s. Good lord is it ever annoying!

[boli]

Damn Drain, you beat me to the obvious Nelson/Flyp reference.

Right now, the two songs that make me lunge for the dial are "Smooth" (Santana) and "Breathe" (Faith Hill). Talk about overplayed.

[Mr. Cynical]

I have become extremely weary of "All-Star"

Adding to the list:

Short Dick Men
I Kissed A Girl
ANYTHING by Powerman 5000 (It's the name, folks)

[tiggeril]

Anything by...by...by... ::gag:: Britney ::choke:: Spears

I can't... <vomit>

[Edwardina]

Anything by Mandy Moore, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, the Backstreet Boys, N'Sync, or 98 Degrees.

Or the Spice Girls.

And I agree that "Breathe" and "Smooth" are overplayed.

[Havoc]

Schlock Artists of the 90s:
- Billy Ray Cyrus
- C+C Music Factory
- Snow
- Vanilla Ice
- Backstreet Boys (sorry, NKOTB did your style first... and you're no better)
- M.C. Hammer
- Michael Bolton (hit it! "TIIIIIME LOOOVE AND TENDERNESS!")


#1 Schlock Song of the 90s though?
... The Macarena

[Pizzle Boy]

insane clown posse

[right said fred]

what about me?

[Nacho4Sara]

Anything by Mandy Moore, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, the Backstreet Boys, N'Sync, or 98 Degrees.

I actually like *NSYNC, but I agree with everything else (I'm very selective in my boyband crushes). I thought that "Candy" song was so fucking stupid, as was "I Want It That Way" (can anyone tell me what that song was actually about?!), and "Oops..." by BS. As for Christina A - we already have one Mariah, and that is enough. Thank you and goodbye.

In my eyes, there are THREE pop divas: Whitney, Madonna, and Janet. No one, let alone BS or CA, will ever touch them and the fact that they try makes me ill!

Adding to the list:

Short Dick Men
I Kissed A Girl
ANYTHING by Powerman 5000 (It's the name, folks)


Awe c'mon Mr. C.. You have to admidt that listening to a chick singing about kissing another chick is sort of, well..... um..... you know, ahhhhhh. :D

[Edwardina]

I think the Short Dick Men song is kind of funny. Guys have plenty of songs extolling the virtues of various women's body parts, so I think they should at least be tolerant if we get even a little. I think "I Like Big Butts" by Sir Mixalot is funny, too.

And I liked The Macarena, mostly because of our local novelty variation, which came out the year the Padres went to the World Series: "Whoa, Camanetti!" (about Ken Camanetti, star hitter).

[evilbeth]

I think "I Like Big Butts" by Sir Mixalot is funny, too.



Since I love most cheesy music (and many of the songs listed her!) I must nitpick--the song is called "Baby Got Back."

[Una Persson]

Everything by "Toad the Wet Sprocket", another one of those early 90's, weepy, mumbling, self-pitying and self-trashing bands that sucked like a Kansas Tornado.

[Gilligan]

Mmmm Bop

[Saint Zero]

Oh wow.. this is the decade that convinced me to give up Radio and move to tapes, then when the MP3 revolution hit, I gave up on tapes/CD's. Chief on the list of suspects that make me glad I have a computer and winamp....

Achy Breaky Heart - Sorry Billy Ray....
Anything by NKOTB (Gag)
Boys II Men (Retch)
Rap in General
Hip Hop In General
Alternative in General (I loved it when Kurt Cobain kicked off this mortal coil. Kids spent weeks crying and weeping, I spent weeks making fun of old Kurt.)

[Nika]

If I hear any more crap from the BareNaked Ladies I am going to SCREAM!! It is just me I think, but I can't handle them, I turn the radio right off. I littleexcessive maybe, but yuck!

[Nacho4Sara]

Hey, I love Boyz II Men and BNL. I liked NKOTB when they came out too. I still have a crush in Jordan Knight.

My vote goes to the song that goes, "..in my pocket goes jing-a-ling-a-ling" sung by this country redneck with a giant gap in his teeth. Ewww.

Also, "Achy Breaky Heart" and "Baby...One More Time." Why do people like this song? I hate BS's voice...and "I Want It That Way" - what way? I still don't know what that fucking song is about!

Also, that "I'm Just A Girl" song by No Doubt - I hated that. Gwen's voice can be a little much.

[dragonlady]

Achey Breaky--blecch!
And from the 80's: Blue Bayou.
