Laffy Taffy - D4L
A Thousand Miles - Vanessa Carlton (UGH!)
Stole - Kelly Rowland
Check On It - Beyonce
Girl - Destiny's Child
Hollaback Girl - Gwen Stefani
Everything that Staind has released. That lead singer irks me to no end.
Everything (except My Happy Ending) by Avril Lavigne
Hit 'Em Up Style - Blu Cantrell
Everything released by Good Charlotte. Gah, I hate them!
Not A Girl, Not Yet a Woman - Britney Spears
Overprotected - Britney Spears

Mambo No. 5 - Lou Bega
Everything by Backstreet, N'Sync, O-Town, 98 Degrees, and every solo effort of each of these persons.

Pretty Fly For A White Guy - The Offspring
1985 - Bowling For Soup
Dreams - The Game
Still On It - Ashanti
Baby I Love U - Jennifer Lopez
Everything by Sean Paul. He seems like fake Jamaican reggae to me.


I could go on all day, folks.

MacArthur park by anyone & everyone that has ever sung it. That cake out in the rain thing just kills me.

[OriginalSinner]

Achy Breaky Heart.....Yucks !

[SentFromHeaven]

macerena! If I hear this again someone kill me.

[hot_chocolate]

When I'm Gone-Eminem-this song just seems to go on and on and on and never seems to end, and it should, because it's rap, and it's eminem.
I'm a slave 4 U-Britney Spears. Ugh.

[Marleybone]

"Having My Baby"
"Don't Take the Girl" by Tim McGraw
"Slow Hand" by Conway Twitty (Ew)

[Rattus]

My #1 least favourite is MacArthur Park. What was he thinking?
Mr. Rattus' least favourite is Don't Go Breaking My Heart (and pretty much ever duet ever sung).
Mr. Rattus' guitarist's least favourite is I Am Woman Hear Me Roar. He's got a point.

Following these #1's, Rattle the Big Dog's Cage by Toby Keith, or whatever the hell that jingoistic piece of garbage is called. My hackles rise and my lip curls every time I hear it. Uggh - hackles rising right now.

Also, every song by every pop tart and every boy band, each and every pseudo "alternative" piece of junk playing now, each and every bit of "new country", every song by every modern "soul" artist. Hate them all.

[srs_in_Oregon]

anything by the Black Eyed Peas...really I dont get them "My humps" really?

[pikachu]

sdflow listed a lot of the ones I would include, only I like the Backstreet Boys and N Sync. I liked 1985 by Bowling For Soup at first but got sick of hearing it on the radio. 100,000 repeats of any song gets old.

I'm really surprised "Sailing" by Christopher Cross made anyone's worst song list.

Some of the worst ones to me would be:
Big Yellow Taxi/any version
Brand New Key/Melanie
We Built This City/Starship
Don't Worry, Be Happy/Bobby McFerrin
You Are So Beautiful/Joe Cocker
Walk Like an Egyptian/The Bangles
Unchained Melody/The Righteous Brothers
I Will Always Love You/any version
Bitch/Meredith Brooks
Anything by Neil Diamond

I cannot stand any of those songs. If I hear them coming on, I change the channel immediately. I'm sure there are others I've forgotten.

[Rattus]

Oh dear, I can't believe I forgot We Built This City. It is so completely awful that the magnitude of its awfulness completely blocked itself from my memory, like a self-eclipsing sun of awfulness. That's it. That's my nominee for worst song ever.

It's not just that it is a completely awful song in it's own right, it's also that is was written and performed by people who actually had some credibility at one time. People whom you would never expect to use the term "rock and roll" in that awful up-with-people type manner. Awful.
