Ray Stevens - Everything Is Beautiful
Honey is indeed as cheesy as cheesy cheese can be, but I’d like to see some votes for Tie A Yellow Ribbon 'round the Old Oak Tree.
That is a lot of fromage, people. And while I can’t argue with any of these fine examples of curdled milk product, I think you’re grasping at some low hanging fruit. Most of these are songs from the 70s, the very decade of cheese personification (by the way, nobody nominated One Tin Soldier?)
How about R. Kelly’s horrendous I Believe I can Fly? Makes me stabby like a fondue fork in the eye.
To be really up to date, the ubiquitous One Direction’s hit What Makes You Beautiful contains not only a blatant ripoff of the bass line from “Summer Nights”,but the truly craptasric line" . . . the way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed".
One Night in Bangkok.
… … Wait, you didn’t say “Chessiest?”
On that note, there’s also Last Christmas.
Man! All of my best suggestions have already been mentioned (One Tin Soldier, Teddy Bear, Brandy, etc.).
I guess I’ll add Razzamatazz by John Travolta. And Escape (Pina Colada Song) by Rupert Holmes.
Jesus Christ.
Your love is like, Bad Medicine, Bad Medicine, it’s what I need, oh woh woh. I hate this frigging piece of fromage.
If you aren’t sold yet, here are the lyrics.
This one is cheesier than a coronary bypass omelette:
Topped only by her “I Am Woman, Hear Me Roar.” :rolleyes:
Daddy, Don’t You Walk So Fast-Wayne Newton
Ok, it’s a close one, but I think you win the thread. I just listened to that and I am crying because I was laughing at how cheesy that was.
That is officially cheesier than even MacAurther Park.
This thread presents an adequate, uh, Muenster Mash… But the all-time top cheesemeister extraordinaire has to be Irwin Chusid:
This is unfair as country music probably has the corner on this market
This is what should be done with cheesy rock songs, the kazoo does it for me
While we’re doing cheesy country songs:
In honor of our cheese expert, here are
…wo, wo, wo…Feelings (cringeworthy even in parody)
and
“Silly Love Songs”.
“Watching Scotty Grow” - Bobby Goldsboro
“Roses for Mama” - C. W. McCall
