[concupisys]

just as a request to the replies of this thread:

would you mind, if you're going to include youtube links, to please just list the song in your post as well as the link? i really don't want to get a bunch of bad music stuck in my head....

on that note, i believe the worst song ever is probably the song that never ends.... it only serves to bring back really bad childhood memories of people i truly don't want to waste any time hating.....

For me it's this! You Light Up My Life

Nah...it is this one. Charlene's I've Never Been To Me. One of those WTF moments as song lyrics goes. It's one of those tunes that make you start a drinking game or get contantly hammered, yelling at the neighbor to shut the hell up. It is one of those songs that are so annoying they really never made sense to begin with.

So much turgid terribleness, so little time

The 1970s were something of a high-water mark in really horribly terribly loathsome popular music. Among the worst were:

Lobo
Me & You & A Dog Named Boo

I'd Love You To Want Me

How Can I Tell Her?

Terry Jacks
Seasons In The Sun

Bo Donaldson
Billy Don't Be A Hero

Not all Disco was that flawless, either:

Tina Charles
I Love To Love

Hot Butter
Popcorn

Maybe not the worst, but with lyrics like
"Someone left the cake out in the rain..."
it comes pretty close, MacAuthur Park.

Teach Your Children by Crosby, Stills, Nash &
Young is a great song....BUT...beyond
"Teach your children well"...can anyone
understand the lyrics?

I can. I have it on my Ipod; I think I have it memorized.

The lyrics to Teach Your Children are right here. Personally, I find them poetic, but I've always loved the song. When I was a teenager among my circle of oddball friends was someone who sang and played guitar very well: it was one of his favorites.

I would cut and paste them in their entirety, but that would probably violate the ToS.

It's long been one of my favorite songs. And no it's not against the ToS as long as you give the credit to the person who wrote the song in the post.

The worse song is the old school tune "FEELINGS". My mom used to play it when she was cleaning the house on saturdays. Just made me want to barf.

Teach Your Children
Performed by CSNY
Written by Graham Nash

Graham Nash wrote this. The lyrics deal with the often difficult relationship he had with his father, who spent time in prison.

...

"The idea is that you write something so personal that every single person on the planet can relate to it. Once it's there on vinyl it unfolds, outwards, so that it applies to almost any situation. 'Teach' started out as a slightly funky English Folk song but Stephen (Stills) put a country beat to it and turned it into a hit record."

You who are on the road
Must have a code that you can live by
And so become yourself
Because the past is just a good bye.

Teach your children well,
Their father's hell did slowly go by,
And feed them on your dreams
The one they picked, the one you'll know by.

Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you would cry,
So just look at them and sigh and know they love you.

And you, of tender years,
Can't know the fears that your elders grew by,
And so please help them with your youth,
They seek the truth before they can die.

[Counter Melody To Above Verse]
Can you hear and do you care and
Cant you see we must be free to
Teach your children what you believe in.
Make a world that we can live in.

Teach your parents well,
Their children's hell will slowly go by,
And feed them on your dreams
The one they picked, the one you'll know by.

Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you would cry,
So just look at them and sigh and know they love you.

Aww, those don't fit the "worst song ever"!

Shiny, Happy People is one of my least favorite REM song, but wow, all three of these artists have songs that are worst than these!

I laughed so hard I almost peed. No matter what your political views are, this song is baaaaaaad. Enjoy!

I want to introduce the singer to the concept of "audacity"!

The harmonies are pretty genius, though. It's like a Tom Petty b-side, written by Trey Parker and the South Park guys!

My contribution to this thread:

Do you guys know about Brokencyde? Here's one of their gems, "Freaxxx" and...wow. This happened in real life. My favorite part is when he's choking (!?) the girl and she looks simultaneously bored and frightened. Fun!

Also, meet Raed! Here's "She Wants Me Back". He's an Australian rapper that is...um, yeah. Not to mention, this video is...interesting. He's like "Fuck that fence, let me hang out in this hole in the ground." Awesome. Very avant garde. Very authentic. Very talented. Very.
