Bad music you like:
I know that you, yes you have songs that are on the worse music list which you adore. So it is time for you to come clean and confess this awfulness that is within. Three and only three will you list, not one, not two but exactly three, four or more are will you not list.

The Night Chicago Died by Paper Lace. By the time I knew that I was suppose to hate this song I already liked it. I love the singer’s voice and can sing the whole thing along on the radio. This song came out before the internet was invented by Gore therefore the memo telling us what is good and bad took longer to get to us drooling fans.
-
Daddy Don’t You Walk So Fast by Wayne Newton. This song reminds me of the summer my best friend Carol and I spent all of our time at the public pool. Whenever I hear this song I smell chlorine. I get the visual of my hair the color of that stuff that one hacks out of the lungs after a nasty bout with a cold. I remember swimming underwater and coming up for air to the sound of “daddy slow down some cause you’re making me run…” blaring out of the sound system with the bad speakers.

Seasons in The Sun by Terry Jacks. Yes I know this is glurge at it’s greatest. But everytimes this song plays I get dust in my eye. He tells everyone goodbye, his best friend, father and girlfriend… wah!
Song you think everyone should like:
That song that you seem to like but it seems that very few other have even heard of it much less like it as much as you do. List of one this shall be, not two nor three, but a single item to shout your glee.
- Burning Bridges by Mike Curb Congregation. This song is from the movie “Kelly’s Heros” staring Clint Eastwood (I have never thought Clint was as cute as my older sister obviously thought he was, but to each their own). This song is one of the best uses of songs in a movie I have ever seen. You have the army jeep driving in the rain, the song comes on, bombs are going off in the background, ah the romance of war in the movies.
** Point and laugh:**
This is where you can list one song that you cannot fathom how anyone could possibly like. It is best if this song is already listed by someone else so that you can actually point and laugh at them, but it is not necessary. Remember one is all you get, I know that the list is long but cull it down to the one that makes your ears bleed upon hearing.
- (You’re) Having My Baby by Paul Anka. Eek. Gag. Blah. Actually my dislike transcends just this song to all of Paul Anka’s stuff. I do not like male singers who obviously had a bike accident in their youth.
