Favorite for me would be “When Doves Cry”.
Least favorite would be about 95% of the rest, though I’d probably have to pick Ke$ha overall - I expect people like Tony Orlando & Dawn and Captain & Tennille to put out schlocky crap, but someone supposedly media-savvy should never suck that hard.
This is really tough. I like, to varying degrees, most of the songs here. I don’t get the problem with “My Sharona” or “Tik Tok” or even “Sugar, Sugar” by the cartoon band The Archies. I think that’s a fun pop song, personally.
My favorites would probably be “When Doves Cry,” “Yeah,” the Beatles entries minus “Hey Jude,” “Bridge Over Troubled Waters,” the Elvis ones, and Blondie.
The ones I loathe the most would probably be “Boom Boom Pow.” Although “Tie A Yellow Ribbon around the Old Oak Tree” and the Captain & Tenille one would be up there, too.
Favorite: While I like quite a few, I’m gonna go with “Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White.”
Least: “(Everything I Do) I Do It For You.” Seething hatred. Everything about that song is wretched including the rage-inducing grammar in the title.
I blame the gays.
FAV: Probably “When Doves Cry” or “Low”
LEAST FAV: “That’s What Friends Are For” or “Somebody That I Used to Know”, probably “That’s What Friends Are For”
Oh, and it’s not my favorite but anyone who doesn’t like “Sugar, Sugar” is just wrong. That song is awesome.
Wooly Bully!
Wooly Bully.
Wooly Bully,
Wooly Bully,
Wooly Bully.
Looks like “When doves cry” is getting a lot of favorite votes. Surprising, to me at least 
Favourite: “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face” - Roberta Flack
Favorites: I Want To Hold Your Hand and My Sharona
Least favorite: Macarena
Why is that? Prince is one of those popular acts (like the Beatles) that is almost universally loved by casual listeners and music critics alike.
Thank you for providing a link to that list! I loved seeing my most favorite singer James Otto and his song named “I Just Got Started Loving You” listed as the #1 country song of 2008.
God bless you and him always!!!

P.S. My most favorite rock song from that list is that “Everything I Do (I Do It For You)” song.
The ones I really like:
(Ghost) Riders in the Sky" - Vaughn Monroe
“All Shook Up” - Elvis Presley
“Hello Goodbye” - Beatles
“Bridge Over Troubled Water” - Simon & Garfunkel
“All Shook Up” is my favorite of the four.
There are loads of songs I on that list I don’t like, but the only ones I really hate:
“Believe” - Cher
“The Sign” - Ace of Base
I’ll say “The Sign” is the worst.
Least favorites: “Silly Love Songs” and “Macarena”
Favorites: “Rolling in the Deep” and “Bad Day”
Fave: Walk Like an Egyptian
Least Fave: Sugar, Sugar
Fave: “When Doves Cry” or “Call Me”
Least: Probably “Love Will Keep Us Together”
Sorry but “awesome” and “Sugar, Sugar” don’t belong in the same sentence. However, this non-ironic cover of the song is actually pretty good.
