  • Worst. Song. Ever.

    (I'd like to limit this to songs that have achieved even some modest success and playing. While I'm sure your band's drunken tapes back from when you first go together are horrible, they never achieved success.)

    But why do I bother? Nothing. Nothing. NOTHING that you can ever suggest is even mildly comparable to this horrificness. "Seasons In The Sun"? "Muskrat Love"? Pikers! Pikers! You will curse my name in the dark for reminding you of this. You will. You surely will. There's no doubt this is the worst. song. ever. to achieve commercial success. Why, I have scant idea.

    But anyways.

    The name of the song.

    Ready?

    You can still stop reading. Don't blame yourself.

    Jordy - Dur Dur D'être Un bébé.

    What? Has your mind gracefully blocked this? Let me gently remind you.

    Early 90s.

    Little child, about 5 years old.

    Dance beat.

    Lyrics that go something like "Oeoeoeoei bääbä, iio iai bobebi" I guess they're French, although they could be some kind of Lovecraftian language of terror.

    Coming back? Eh? It's all coming back? Isn't it? Huh? Uh? It is, isn't it?

    And when you stop trying to scrub your brain clean with a rake, don't say I didn't warn you.

    Nothing. NOTHING. NOTHING you offer can compare to that horrible little kid going "Oeoeoeoeoei bääbä, iio iai bobebi."
    "Spirit merges with matter to sanctify the universe. Matter transcends to return to spirit. The interchangeability of matter and spirit means the starlit magic of the outermost life of our universe becomes the soul-light magic of the innermost life of our self." - Dennis Kucinich, candidate for the U. S. presidency
    "That’s the future of the Democratic Party: providing Republicans with a number of cute (but not that bright) comfort women." - Adam Yoshida, Canada's gift to the world

    I have but three words for you, Stefu: "Will to Power"

    They did a remake of Peter Frampton's "Baby I love your way" which has, has to rank up there with the worst PoS's ever put on vinyl.

    And I do remember that Bebe song, which does stink to high heaven, but I gotta give the kid a pass - he's only 5 and had no idea just how much he was being mercilessly exploited. Will to Power did their crap purposefully.

        Stefu, i actually started looking for that one in audiogalaxy. I liked it back then, but then again i hate everything i liked then.

        My favourite in this category would have to be david hasselhoff: I've been looking for freedom. Though that's also the best ever .
        It made it in Germany i think. I want to get my hands on davids german version.


        i've been looking for freedom.. i've been looking so long..

          Actually, any song by Abba is a contender in this contest.

              Hey, don´t dis ABBA. They rock! *feels a trifle nationalistic*

              But the worst song ever must be "Living next door to Alice" by Smokie. Why? Cause it´s played everywhere by every two-bit busker, and every drunken bozo is singing along and is happy as hell. It feels like an episode of Twilight Zone

                  That Yummy Yummy Yummy song is wholly unsanitary.

                  This reminds me...
                  My mom's a big fan of the Oldies. She was listening to Rainbow Ride on the radio (you know, "I ain't takin' no rainbow ride!") and my brother convinced her it was about gay sex. She now can't listen to the song like she used to...

                    Hey, I remember that song from Jordy!
                    I think it's unfair to consider it the worst song ever! At least it had a nice beat!
                    Of course, my oppinion is based from what I remember my taste was at the time that music was released. And I was basically a kid!

                    Hey, don't pick on ABBA! I love their music!

                        Oh, please...

                          I dont know if its the name of the song, but the Pet Shop boys did a song which goes "New York City Boy". It doesnt irritate me so much as make me laugh because it sounds so gay.
