The Worst Song Of All Time

[Weedmage Princess]

Apparently Blender Magazine has compiled a list of the 50 Worst Songs of All Time. I disagree with a few songs they've listed...how dare they name ANY Meatloaf song. They also named Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start The Fire" which really made my jaw drop cause I love that song. Most people I know like that song, actually and I remember that song being a point of discussion on these boards a while back. Everyone seemed to agree it was pretty good. Anyway...check it out:

They nailed the Limp Bizkit and Toby Keith.

We Didn't Start The Fire being on there is really, really fucking dumb though.

[Skirmisher]

That list sucks.

[Weedmage Princess]

Heh I'm debating downloading We Built This City On Rock And Roll to see if it deserves the title of All Time Worst. I forgot how it goes.

[Skirmisher]

Ok, i'll admit that song sucks.

[Xcalibur]

Loving a song doesn't equally means that that song was great.

You can have bad taste, you know, live with it :lol:

I adore bad songs, bad isn't too commercial, usualy.

[Weedmage Princess]

I like songs that are bad and I can accept it. But when just about everyone you know likes the song and teachers have children in their classes doing schoolwork on it due to a message it's saying...it's pretty safe to say the song doesn't "suck."

[AnticorRifling]

Marconi plays the momba, listen to the radio. We built this city, we built this city on rock and roll.

It's bad but it's not the worst.


Anything by Savage Garden = worst ever.

[Ilvane]

I don't think I built this city was the worst song ever, but it was pretty bad.

The Billy Joel song totally should be off the list.

Billy Ray Cyrus, that deserves it. I also could think of a few more.

-A

[Nakiro]

wTF We Didn't Start The Fire = Best Song Ever.

I'm going to download it right now.

[Nakiro]

This song is very 80ish, but its a great morning song either way.

If you don't understand why its cool, that link helps.

[Pierat]

You know, that list DOES suck. And you know what I think? They did it on purpose to get theyre name in lights, come on, Blender? I say its a stunt to boost sales

[Wezas]

Man, I like that Wang Chung song. I wonder if William Hung's version of "She Bangs" will be part of the next "Worst 50 songs"

Also, I didn't see Milli Vanilli on the short list, anyone know if it's on the entire list?

[AnticorRifling]

Just because you can't blame it on the rain doesn't mean you should hate!

They need to learn that instead of going to the trouble of researching(if you can call it that) the worst 50 songs ever they could just do this:

Worst 50 songs of all time:

50-1 Country Music.

[Skirmisher]

Awww now you'd best run before Mint gets here.

She drives a rather large vehicle.:bye:

[Nakiro]

On a final sidenote before class, there is NO GOD DAMN FUCKING WAY that I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy is a better song than We Didn't Start The Fire.

She's a woman driver. I'm not worried because:

She'll be focused on the mirror so she can do makeup

She'll be driving so slow that I can run away

She won't be able to hit what she's aiming for much like a parking space

[Skirmisher]

Aw man......you're lucky I drive a Neon.

It'd get hurt worse than you when I hit ya.

[DeV]

That list is an insult to good music. :thumbsdown:

They have Stevie Wonder on it so they automatically suck.

[DeV]

Hmmm... wonder why it costs men more for car insurance than women. Enlighten me. :!:

[Pierat]

Insurance companys think backwards thats why. Go on and call them, I had to write a letter explaining a traffic violation to them because I drive children at work and I had a ticket but it got dismissed (BS improper right turn in NYC) Anyhow, I wanted to include how much I drive to show how good my record is considering how many miles I rack up. You would think many miles + good driving record = Proof your good driver. Not to them, they consider the more miles you drive the higher the odds are that you will get into a accident and the bigger of a risk you are! Morons

[DeV]

Very good explanation Pierat. Insurance companies are backwards. Male drivers should go on strike.

[Snapp]

That list sucks. I agree with Pierat, its just a stunt to get people talking about them... like we are.

[Hanksbane]

Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start the Fire" (No. 41); Simon & Garfunkel's "The Sounds of Silence" (No. 42); The Beatles' "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" (No. 48);

OMG anyone who added those songs to the list should be shot!

Is this Mag run by 12 year olds who listen to N'suck?

I expect it from Blender, but VH1? C'mon VH1! your bread and butter are people who like those songs, stop playing to the MTV crowd.

The only good Blender does is having half naked rocker/music chicks on their covers. Otherwise they are a Rolling Stone/Pulse/Tiger Beat/<insert other music> or teenie bopper mag here wannabes. Stick to writing Maxim.

[DeV]

I agree Snapp, most of the songs on that list are top sellers. Whats that saying about the people who bought, liked, and listened to them.

[peam]

Girl drivers = 3000 small wrecks through a driving career, never doing more than $5000 in damage.

Guy drivers = When we wreck, it's usually at 120mph. We blow ourselves, children, puppies, and kittens to pieces.

[Anebriated]

I have no respect for the article as two of my favorite songs were mentioned. We didn't start the fire and the Sounds of silence. The magazine must be based in Texas...

[DeV]

I have no respect for VH1 when it comes to compiling an accurate list of songs and showing love when it's due. I forgot how much they sucked.

[peam]

The most reliable source for awesome music on the planet is me.

[Bobmuhthol]

We Didn't Start the Fire and We Built This City are mixed in with my small group of favorite songs. They're both heavily played on my playlist.

[Meos]

Worst song ever = Everyone in the club get tipsy

Simple. Men are more likely to become involved in a fatal accident.

HOWEVER, women are more likely to become involved in any non-fatal accident.

Thus women are more likely to do retarded shit (fender bender shit, run into a mailbox, etc).

WTF Anticor? Savage Garden rule. :heart: Darren Hayes!

[TheEschaton]

What doesn't belong in this group?


The list, which appears in the May issue, includes songs by New Kids on the Block, Meat Loaf, The DoorsLionel Richie, Hammer and The Beach Boys, among others.

I mean, seriously, what are these people smoking?

Or, the better question may be, what are these people NOT smoking?

ROFL Everytime my husband comes back home from being out anywhere...he is singing that song cause he heard it on the radio and it's stuck in his head. Yet...I've never heard it. And I spend atleast 80 minutes in the car driving everyday.

[DeV]

That kid is only 17 who made that song.. what does he know bout being in a club anyway? lol Seriously, its not one of the best that's for sure.

[Ambrosia]

That magazine sucks, this article proves it:

http://www.blender.com/articles/article_466.html

It's the 50 top worst bands, listed in it is Paul Oakenfold and The Doors among others.

[Ambrosia]

http://www.blender.com/articles/article_786.html

Edit: That's not the full list, only goes to 41. They suck anyway.

[Edited on 4-21-2004 by Ambrosia]

[Bobmuhthol]

<<The Beach Boys>>

Another band in my playlist.

These people suck at life.

[Latrinsorm]

Blender sucks. I'm glad I can't see the rest of the list.

[Weedmage Princess]

What type of rag..uhm, I mean mag...is Blender?

I've never even heard of it.

[TheEschaton]

Blender is the type of magazine who thinks Linkin Park are the next incarnation of the Beatles.


-TheE-

[peam]

No, man, that's The White Stripes. (Whom I do enjoy, just not that much.)

Hahahaha, you gave me my first laugh of the morning, Anticor.

The NTSB estimates that full time professional drivers drive one million miles in 12 years time. They determined that it would take the average driver (commuting to work, school, stores, with the occasional road trip thrown in) 66 years to drive one million miles. So, yeah, chances of being involved in an accident are greater for me than an average driver, male or female. I’ve been lucky though since the two accidents I have been involved with professionally were judged non preventable. By the way, the drivers of the other two vehicles were male. Heh.

My company, and most transit agencies, considers a 'million miler' to be a driver who has reached that mark without a single preventable accident. Oh and the female million milers in my company outnumber the male million milers.


Back on topic: that list included Simon and Garfunkel's Sounds of Silence? Crappy list.

[Edaarin]

We Didn't Start the Fire sucked. I was "North Korea" in my high school history class' non heterosexual rendition of it.

EDIT: Damn you people, I'm going to have that retarded song stuck in my head all day now.
