McAuthur’s Park. Is it about a park in the rain? A Martha Stewart disaster? Please 'splain it to me.
According to composer Jimmy Webb, it’s about a wedding in the park that didn’t happen because the bride didn’t show up.
And “I’ve Never Been to Me” is the cheesiest song ever.
I like how they say that Hey Jude “came out shortly before” Donna Summer’s MacArthur Park. I guess those 11 years just flew by for the author - must’ve been that crazy '70s lifestyle.
I heard a story that the songwriter tried to compose the worst piece of music ever.
Probably apocryphal, but that didn’t prevent me from mentioning this “fact” when an old friend and business partner once declared this his favorite song of all time. 
The “Hey Jude” reference is on a different bullet point (although, not technically bullets here as they are separated by colors), and refers to the original release of MacArthur Park, not the Donna Summer version.
Not that these “facts” are always accurate, but I’m guessing this one is referring to the Richard Harris version.
And “Watching Scotty Grow” is the cheesiest song ever, followed closely by “Playground in my Mind” (my name is Michael, I have a nickle…).
Yeah, y’all are right. My bad.
I’m shocked, SHOCKED to find that the public likes cheesey entertainment.
I think it’s because the cheesier the song, the more fun it is to sing in the shower.
I bought it for my daughter after we discussed it on the boards the other day. She likes it too. 
A friend of mine wrote a breakup song whose chorus ended with the line “She won’t have to worry 'bout the cake in the rain.” I always used to kid him for pretending he knew what the hell that meant.
“She’s Havin’ My Baby” is the correct answer to the cheesiest song ever, closely followed by “Chevy Van.”
We were having a barbecue at my sister’s house, and it began to rain. My mother, worried about the food out there, said “I left the cake out in the rain!”
My wife and I started saying, together, as if rehearsed:
“I don’t think that I can take it, 'cause it took so long to bake it, and I’ll never have that recipe again!”
Then I ran out for the cake.
My mother didn’t recognize the reference, and thought we were nuts.
You’re all delusional! The cheesiest song ever is Bobby Goldsborough’s “Honey”, followed closely by Terry Jacks’s “Seasons in the Sun”.
The same songwriter composed “Rosecrans Boulevard,” which makes even “Macarthur Park” look good. Not only are the lyrics dumber, but they don’t even bother to rhyme.
Patches, I’m dependin’ on you, son…
Do you know what would make that song a lot better? Dinosaurs!
Those are correct. And they are followed closely by Sammy Davis, Jr’s “Candy Man”.
