Wesley Willis - Anything by this guy is ear-wrenching, yet funny(i.e. Cut The Mullet).

Hanson - MmmmBop. Don't know how this band got popular. It's scary actually.

Basically any crappy pop band is horrible IMO.

Zootm -- That's so true. That and money.

Anything by Celine Dion. She pisses me off.
I hate Britney's songs. Unintelligent lyrics and an annoying beat. Fuck off, boob-pumping whore.
Some other shit... I forget the name... I'll post back when I remember.

AAF's CD is actually really good. The record company decides the first single, so i don't hold that against them.

Yeah that's really gay.. 6 different words in that song.

Just a useless fact, but did you know that it took TWO people to write that song? They also have it copyrighted.

Yep. I would agree there.

My entry would surprisingly have to come from maybe the best band ever, the Beatles.

"Revolution #9" from the White Album. I'm not really sure you could even call it a song. It's just bad noise.

That would be "Big Yellow Taxi" by Alanis Morissette, someone else who did the original, or Counting Crows (with Vanessa Carlton). The CC version isn't too bad.

Joni Mitchell wrote and recorded the original (and best ) version of "Big Yellow Taxi".

Most techno mixes (for techno mixes sake) get my eternal scorn. They're an abomination. I'm waiting for the techno cuts of the wedding & funeral marches. I believe they may even exist.

DJ Sammy did a bunch of techno covers of popular songs form the 80's "Boys of Summer" "California Dreamin'" "Heaven" and it pisses me off that he gets radio play with this crap when other better and original songs from better artists don't.

Only partially.

you must admit many aspects are similar: cheesy love songs, heart throbs, teeming masses of crazy, fainting, psychotic female fans, etc.

The beatles were more talented as they could play their own instruments and wrote their own songs. Plus they started to expand song subjects in their later work and sang about drugs and other stuff but the overall majority of their early work was love songs.

ditto, and i never really liked "in da club" in the first place, the guy's way overplayed and it's getting pretty damn annoying.

ditto on the Celine Dion.

and i'm surprised no one has mentioned "elevator music" or that crap that they use when companies put you on hold.


oooooo, and Kenny G!

Heh, hold music.

Cable & Wireless' tech support line used to play Sunchyme by Dario G, which was an alright record - trouble is, it was a four minute track and C&W had approximately one man doing tech support, so you'd typically be listening to it for five hours until he got round to you...

Now it's NTL, and they play something by Vivaldi, constantly interrupted by "your call is important" - No shit, I wouldn't call if it wasn't important, you morons. And they have more tech support staff. At least three.

what are you taling about! "in da club" is one of the most creatiev rap songs i've ever heard! How many other rap songs haev their titles spelt with words like "da" and not "the." That is unprecidented! Also, he talkes about his 'dubs' and his benz in the first verse, so unique! Dubs and benz, in a rap song! who woulda thought! Then he goes so far to talk about weed AND his hoes AND his 'bling bling'! Just wow! So many unique things that is never heard in any other rap song, it's just mind blowing!

'm so excited,
And I just can't hide it,
And I know, I know, I know, I know
I know I want you, want you.

for what its worth : pointer sisters offcourse, (Words & music by trevor lawrence, anita, june and ruth pointer)

But you do have a point, personally i can't here such songs anymore.
I'd say all dance classics sux now, simply coz they got played like a zillion times..just to name a view that i started hating:

- celebration, (not)kool and the gang
- relight my fire - dan hartmann
- paradise by the f*****dash bla bla - meat loaf
- its raining men - the weather pigs

Dance Classics parties are very popular nowadays,,,why do ppl torture themselves??

I'm very fond of Dan Hartman's 'Relight My Fire'. It's a shame a boy band had to tarnish it.

Speaking of tarnishing, that reminds me- The Kenny G "redux" of Louis Armstrong's "It's a wonderful world"- where he proceeds to play his clarinet *right over* the recording.
