I don't know that I can pick a worst song. I like a wide variety of music but can't really think of one that makes me want to jam a meat thermometer in my ear.
What is the worst song of all time?
- Thread starter demoncore1031
- Start date
My old band did a metal cover of Abracadabra, but changed the words to "reach out and stab ya." The crowds loved it. I always wanted to start a parody band, and kinda did with my brother (it was called Dyslexics The) but I had to move shortly after and we didn't have a place to jam anymore.
I always wondered: is an afternoon delight the same thing as a nooner? Nonetheless, it was an abysmal song--the singers being obviously too full of themselves.
Wink wink nudge nudge...The Starland Vocal Band actually parlayed this song into a summer replacement variety show. The 70s were somethin' man.
There was some great music and some decent television, but the bottom of the barrel stuff was incredibly bad. Just absolutely painful... Reminds me of the Grammy award winning new artist for 1979: A Taste Of Honey
Also nominated: Elvis Costello, The Cars, Toto, Chris Rea. I'd like to thank the Academy for picking the absolute WORST act.
Honey by Bobby Goldsboro
It was played way too often in the late 60's

Your post takes me back to when I worked at the university book store in college. Our general manager made us listen to Lite 104.1’s holiday music from Thanksgiving to Christmas. The amount of Christmas songs that I heard that are absolute crimes against humanity numbers in the dozens. Wonderful Christmastime might be the worst, but I’d put this piece of **** by Kenny Loggins right there with it:
A couple of songs mentioned earlier in the thread ("Afternoon Delight" and "Having My Baby") are part of this "Jerks on 45" medley. These versions at least have energy (plus sarcasm helps, I"m sure).
