Bad list. No BG's?
Ok, anything by Barry Manilow or the BG's sucks.

And I saw Willis Allen Ramsey do Muskrat Love at the Cellar Door - he wrote the song, and apologized for the crappy cover...

Wow...he was a cross between Howdie Doody and Lyle Lovett with that hair.. I forgot about him!
I can't believe Metallica made that list either. But then I'm a rocker...
"Barbie Girl"-Aqua
"I Would Do Anything For Love (but I won't do that)"-Meatloaf
"She Bangs"-Ricky Martin
"Everybody Have Fun Tonight (Everybody Wang Chung Tonight")-Wang Chung
I'm sure I can think of more....

"Fly Robin Fly" has to be on a list of worst songs ever.
I can't stand that song! When I was 5'9" and skinny in the 8th grade my mom signed me up for jazz dance lessons to try to help me stop walking into walls.
I had to do a routine to that song. To this day it evokes memories of bad leotards and extreme gawkiness. Yes, my feelings for that song are personal. But music usually is, isn't it?

"Ruby Red Dress" has to be one of the worst songs ever. My former co-workers at the bank still email me when it comes on; I used to dive to the volume button and shut it off in my office so it wouldn't get stuck in my head for the rest of the day.

Joshie,
I can still see people gyrating under the mirror ball at the club when "Love to Love You, Baby" came on. Sadly, most of them thought they were going to get laid that night but went home alone...But I don't want to talk about me.

I thought the song was slightly exrotic but the male dancer was straight out of Sprocets.
How about Toni Bazel "Hey Mickey"

Maybe you're right Joshie but I thought the trick of tying it in a knot with my tongue before putting it up my nose might be a turn on...Apparently not.
Ooohhhhh...."I Got a Brand New Pair of Rollerskates by Melanie sucked also.

8. David Gray "Babylon"
Ummm....I really like this song.
Does that mean I'm a dork?!
