"Shout" by Tears For Fears. It makes my skin crawl. It irritates me to no end. Seeing the video forces me to imagine horribly violent acts being perpetrated on the band by yours truly.

Oh come on! You can do better than that! Go ahead! Name a song you really hate. I know you've been dying to get it off your chest.  * wink *

Drop kick me Jesus through the goalposts of life, end over end, neither left or right (I know, I know, it's NOT a rock song, but it's the worst song that came to mind-I had a former boss who always sang (worse) or hummed (not as bad) this song!)

To each his own... Who am I to judge?

Some songs that I really liked when I was a teenager, I will not listen to now. Other songs that I did not listen to when I was younger, I can't get enough of!

You got it Mandy!! That's the worst song I ever heard!

In Quebec, there was a song that was played everywhere, it was called "La Dance du Canard" (The Duck Dance) and it was worst that Disco Duck, ah mais quel merde! (ah! What crap!)

I am so SICK of hearing that song - I wanna puke!
(It's called "overkill")

Talking of "overkill" - how about:
"Black Velvet" by Alannah Myles
Van Halen's "Jump" or
"It's my life" by Jon Bon Jovi?

I'm presently restoring a Philco radio Model 70 (cathedral) and if and when it captures stations with any of these songs playing, I WILL CRUSH THE DARN THING!

'God Gave Rock and Roll To You.' Yeah sure the chorus was catchy but the verses were pure crap.

I used to go out with a woman who also despised "Black Velvet" by Alannah Myles. I'm not sure what it is with that one.

I have a book called "The Worst Rock 'n' Roll Records Of All Time" by Jimmy Guterman and Owen O'Donnell. The song they picked as #1 worst Rock 'n' Roll single of all time..."My Ding-a-Ling" by Chuck Berry!

This website makes me feel like crying something. Most notably when "Smells like teen spirit" is called "the worst Rock song ever".

I'm with you on that one. I liked Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey but that song makes me nauseous.

"We Built This City" by Jefferson Starship is probably the cheesiest rock song ever. Oh wait.. no it was "The Final Countdown" by Europe.

All of those songs are based on the concept of a catchy chorus line - you just hear them songs and know full well the artists were sitting in their kitchen or studio struggling to come up with something to fit in the middle

I know this is outrageously immature, but the line in "The Final Countdown" where it goes "We're heading for Venus" there's an echo on the word Venus. Now bearing in mind I was 11 when the song got to number 1, I thought it was hilarious to sing 'penis' over the top of the echo.

The sad thing is, I have yet to grow out of this habit  * smile * .

I like to sing "With eyes like potatoes" to Madonna's La Isla Bonita when she sings 'With eyes like the desert' Don't ask me why - I don't know why. It has no logic at all but to me (and only me  * wry smile * ) its really funny!  * raspberry *

I saw the Eagles perform Hotel California for the first time live after recording it. Could care less now. That was back in the 70's.
