Blender magazine has published it's list of the 50 worst songs ever...lists like this always amuse me...there are definately entries here that i wholeheartedly agree with, though there are others i was surprised to find onit...of couse i'm not that surprised as this isn't my list it is theirs....topping the list was Straship's We Built this City, which i must agree is one of the worst pieces of shit ever passed off as music, and certainly deserves to be on the list, if not topping it...they described it as: The truly horrific sound of a band taking the corporate dollar while sneering at those who take the corporate dollar...hard to disagree with that in any way...their top ten list was:
1) Starship - We Built This City
2) Billy Ray Cyrus - Achy Breaky Heart
3) Wang Chung - Everybody Have Fun Tonight
4) Limp Bizkit - Rollin
5) Vanilla Ice - Ice Ice Baby
6) Huey Lewis & The News - The Heart Of Rock & Roll
7) Bobby McFerrin - Don't Worry Be Happy
8) Eddie Murphy - Part All The Time
9) Madonna - American Life
10) Paul McCartney & Stevie Wonder - Ebony And Ivory
songs were chosen because of their melodies, were wretchedly performed, and quite a few made no sense what so ever...i'm sure quite a few of the chosen fit all three criteria...wonder if any of the artists feel any shame in being included on this list...somehow i don't think so.
