Just wanted to mention the inexplicable omission of the Herrey’s “Diggi Loo, Diggi Ley” as well as any other Eurovision winner.

Surprised the collected efforts of the Eurovision songfestival have not gotten more. I would gladly recommend The Herreys “Diggi Loo Diggi Ley” as the worst song ever: http://www.bide-et-musique.com/song/2094.html

It’s weird, nearly all were enormously popular at one point in time. I’m from the generation in which nearly everybody can still rattle off at least the first verse of “Ice Ice Baby”—on command and laugh hysterically at doing so. And so songs like “Everybody Have Fun Tonight” are naturally going to be stuck in my head forever, just as the Brady Bunch theme and various commercial jingles. Then there are the songs that are pure slop—bad enough to be criminal: Celine Dion. Clay Aiken. Bete Midler. These people should all be shot. http://www.catfishvegas.blogspot.com

Aw geez, cat, we’re including show tunes? The list’s gonna exceed fifty songs if you do that: Stephen Schwartz alone has probably written fifty of the worst.

No Bay City Rollers, no Osmonds, no Bachman Turner Overdrive. The people making the list weren’t even trying, really.

My current girlfriend once kissed Huey Lewis. I’m not sure how this relects on her. Or me.

“Seasons in the Sun” definitely belongs on the list—but how on earth is it that no one’s mentioned “Afternoon Delight,” or (shudder) “Muskrat Love.” I mean, for crying out loud. “Muskrat Love” should have taken the top of several lists.

Toni Basil, “Mickey,” a hanging offense in and of itself.

What about MacArthur Park? All That She Wants? Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft? In The Year 2525? I’ve Never Been to Me? What a lightweight list. C’mon, bring on some real horror.

I’m so glad to see the hate for Lady In Red, which is truly horrendous, and I’ve been to several weddings where the bride has deliberately chosen that song to dance to. We Built This City is also a good choice for worst song. I would add the Beach Boys “Kokomo” and Colour Me Badd’s “I Wanna Sexx You Up”.
