Well, the next time you hear that song, don’t stick around … you got to keep on MOVIN’!!!
Perhaps not the worst songs ever (and we’ve had some doozies) but that bloody “Doncha” song, as well as “Cater to You” (Destiny’s Child) are both up on my hate-list right now.
You oughta know
Some have popped into my mind.
Pillow talk
Anything by Motley Crue
Happy Birthday
Afternoon Delight
"Hurray for Santy Claus!!!" by Milton DeLugg and His Little Eskimos.
The played it at least THREE TIMES in the movie Santa Claus Conquers the Martians . (This movie was also the first starring role for Pia Zadora.)
Without doubt, without question, it is It’s Halloween by the Shaggs. Those girls had literally minutes of training on their instruments. And their voices sound like kindergarteners on about 12 quarts of Robitussin.
Either the “Barbie World” song or “Cotton-Eyed Joe” by Rednex. As if bad American folk music needed to be remade by stoned Euro trash.
That’s the one (otherwise known as the “Duff Man song.”) It would seem as though Jan Hammer’s 1976 album “Oh yeah?” is unrelated. That’s what I get for downloading MP3s, I guess; more often than not the song title and/or artist information is wrong. :smack:
I’ll second “Diary of an Unborn Child” by Lil’ Markie as a song that’s so bad it ends up being funny. (Originally linked from this thread.)
That was what Homer was singing along to when Neil Armstrong first walked on the moon and Abe Simpson stood in front of the TV and saluted with tears in his eyes.
Whoever mentioned “Playground of My Mind” gets my vote (serious shuddering – and I usually take a guilty pleasure in listening to that AM 70’s stuff).
But let’s not end this contest just yet without considering the whiny drivel of Stevie Wonder’s “I Just Called to Say I Love You.” If there was ever a reason a blind man deserved to get his ass kicked it was Stevie for this creating song (and I mean it from the bottom of my heart!).
Let’s just say little Stevie had a bad case of P.W. when writing this song
It was Eiffel 65. They were a one hit wonder here in Britain with that song.
Some of the better known songs than the ones in my OP that I think deserve to be on this list:
Texas featuring Kardinal Offishall - Carnival Girl
This was actually a hit; I couldn’t believe how bad it was. It’s a lift-music cover of ‘Caravan Of Love’ (not exactly a pinnacle of musical brilliance itself), but with “Caravan” changed to “Carnival”. And it’s got rapping on it that would have sounded dated 10 years previous.
Fast Food Rockers - Fast Food Song
You know that daft chant about “Kentucky fried chicken and a pizza hut”? They actually made a pop song out of it! And it got to number two in the charts!
Hampenburg - Duck Toy
A Danish dance song with noises from a squeaky duck toy in it.
To anyone who might get this abomination of a song stuck in their heads, my apology in advance:
Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head
Worst. Song. Evar.
Cheeky Song (Touch My Bum), by the Cheeky Girls.
Ooh boys cheeky girls
Ooh girls cheeky boys
Ooh boys cheeky girls
Ooh girls cheeky boys
Ooh boys cheeky girls
Ooh girls cheeky boys
Ooh boys cheeky girls
Ooh girls cheeky boys
I never ever ask where do you go
I never ever ask what do you do
I never ever ask what’s in your mind
I never ever ask if you’ll be mine
Come and smile don’t be shy
Touch my bum this is life.
Oooooh
We are the cheeky girls
We are the cheeky girls
You are the cheeky boys
You are the cheeky boys
We are the cheeky girls
We are the cheeky girls
You are the cheeky boys
You are the cheeky boys
Hhmm cheeky cheeky
(laughter)

Wash. Rinse. Repeat.
Many years ago there was a board on AOL called Worst Songs Ever. Most of the songs listed here were mentioned there, along with
Piggies by the Beatles
In A Gadda Da Vida by ???.
I have to admit, l ike Toby Keith’s * Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue (the Angry American)*, then again I like Toby. 
My nomination for the worst song I’ve ever heard is a piece of crap called Over and Over. Nelly rapping over a piece sung by Tim McGraw. :smack:
Dear God, Faith Hill should have talked him out of it.
Some early ABBA is bad. I’m one of their biggest fans, and even I admit it. Throw in the disco era, and it is painful.
But that is nothing compared to Debby Boone’s cover of Chiquitita, a song that was retched to begin with. It was the B-side of “You Light Up My Life,” which means it sold millions of copies, and B&B got massive royalties from it. The combination of ABBA’s song and Boone’s voice is unimaginable.
Iron Butterfly
I don’t have time to go through all the posts, but I’ll give you my short list of things I’ve actually heard on the radio that are just gawd-awful:
Satin Sheets
Behind Closed Doors
Achy-Breaky Heart
I know it is unfair to pick on country, because it is actually easier to write something really annoying in that style (for your consideration: Sally G)
However some of the worst stuff I’ve ever heard were selections from Dr. Demento’s Audio Torture Chamber – one was a group of children screaming (actually it makes a good case for demonic possession).
But nearly every artists has produced at least one screaming stinker – some however make it their life’s work (for your consideration: Sid Viscious).
Surely it has to be anything on the Crazy Frog album, or maybe Mr Blobby. Hell let’s just say any novelty drivel for kids.
When I started reading this thread, the worst song I had ever heard was the overproduced orchestral disco version of the “I Love Lucy” theme song that had no lyrics except for a chorus of people singing the phrase “Disco Lucy” over and over again. But before I had a chance to post that, I downloaded the song from Cisco’s link. Much worse. We Built This Starbucks is bad in ways I’ve never been exposed to before.
