Top Ten Worst Songs Ever

I decided to post a little something fun for a change.

What are the ten worst songs ever recorded that made a hit? You know, the songs that come on the radio and you absolutely have to change stations before you barf. Even if the button lands you on a country station, or even a rap station, it's better than being tormented by that song.

Here's my highly subjective list because, let's face it, musicians are dime a dozen and there's way too much music out there for any one person to be able to listen to in a lifetime.

10. Muskrat Love by Captain and Tenille. What perverted mind would create a love song about horny rodents?

9. We built This City by Starship. Nothing but a sellout to 80's commercialism.

8. I Will Always Love You by Whitney Houston. Dolly Parton wins with this song hands down. Poor Whitney tried too hard.

7. YMCA by the Village People. Heck, make that anything by the Village People. Or was that their only song?

6. Do You Really Want To Hurt Me? by the Culture Club. I hesitated adding this one to the list because it was funny in Shrek, but deep down, yes, I really did want to hurt Boy George for having the balls to torment us with this song.

5. My Way or the Highway by Limp Bizkit. It might have been better if Fred Durst actually broke out in tears during the song. Whining through the whole song as if he's on the verge of tears, though, doesn't cut it.

4. 2004 by Rueben Studdard. If American Idol weren't a rigged competition, we all could have been spared this tragedy.

2. Bob Dylan. Pick a song, any song. He made legendary status because all the hippies were high --- and still are.

1. Ebony and Ivory by Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder. Aside from being boring and out of tune, the metaphor was too obvious and cliched. Goes to show you that even legends lay an egg once in awhile.

Ok, here's one song that is so far in the lead as the worst song ever, I give it a spot all its own separate from the list because I didn't want anyone to think that I even consider it in the same league as the above ten.

Roxanne by Sting. Dragging your fingers deeply across a chalk board as the nails scrape backwards, peeling off your fingers is a slightly better sound and experience than listening to this...nope, I can't do it. I can't say song.
