Anything sang by Westlife. They never actually created any of their own music - they copied every song, because they didn't have the ability to write their own.

P-poor.

I'm pretty sure people born in the 80s and beyond knows music by Elvis.

Oh god yes.

And so I wake in the morning
And I step outside
And I take a deep breath and I get real high
And I scream from the top of my lungs
What's going on?

Next-door-neighbour "Argh, not again, it's every f*cking morning. Shut up you stupid cow."

Same as that Dancing Naked In The Rain (I can't think of anything worse) song...

Take me dancing naked in the rain
Feel it washing over me, oh oh
Join me dancing naked in the rain

"Errr not now love, Corrie's on."

Hate that Calvin Harris song 'Feels'. It's just so annoying.

Plus it sounds like "catch fish" rather than "catch feels".

For that reason alone,it's a good song.

You can do the same to the awful Haddaway song, "Please Don't Go" by singing "Beans On Toast".

Oh I forgot. Of course John Lennon was the reason that the Beatles were so big. Such marvellous songs. Give Peace a Chance and Happy Christmas War is Over. Two of the most scintillating records ever released.

I used to think it was, 'What have you done today to make you feel proud? by M People. But I've heard it so often at my kids' school assemblies/concerts etc that I find it strangely amusing now.

So it's anything by Coldplay for me. The biggest pile of dreary poo, dropped out by the most pretentious and distinctly average band in the history of mediocre music.

A few questions that I need to know ?????????? WTF

'I believe in a thing called love' - in fact not just that song, anything by the Darkness. Weird how they just suddenly appeared overnight like some big rock stars. Mac Bolan-esque they definitely were not.

There's a reason glam rock died in the 70's. Go and wear your vests and bandanas somewhere else.

Damn right Karatekid. It's the most grammatically flawed song ever. Lyric writing to just make it rhyme. They carry on with, 'The alphabet goes right from A to Zee'.

Though I do love Diana Ross' 'Respectfully, I say to thee' on Upside Down

How come 'Don't Stop Believing' wasn't on the list?

It's a great benchmark for me, as soon as matey tells me it's the best song ever I can ignore everything else he says from thereon in.

timshorts · Post by **timshorts** » Tue Jun 05, 2018 1:53 pm

This is clearly an essay question as there is so much sh1te about. However, can I give a special call out to:-

1) Any piece of infantile music which the artist has such difficulty with intonation that I cringe every time its on and can't understand how somebody at the recording studio didn't say to the singer - "Can't you sing in tune you talentless ####" so this will include
a) Ring my bell - by someone that consistently shrieks sharp all over the place
b) Most of the early Jackson 5 material featuring M Jackson on out-of-tune-screeching
c) The Cyprus entry in the last Eurovision which inexplicably finished in a champions league spot after the jury vote from the members of the music industry, suggesting that some of them are tone deaf too.

2) "Men in black" and "Waltz in black" both by the Stranglers which I have to remember to jump up and press the "skip" button on the respective albums.

3) The rubbish that they have on in the cake shop every lunchtime (It might be Heart FM, not sure but it definitely is a turd every bit as bad as Meatloaf, the Beatles (except those tracks written by Harrison) and most of Pstotto's list).

4) Most of the repertoire of William Byrd, Palestrina (except, perhaps, "Like as the Hart") et al, with which I was tortured in my early years and for which I believe that I am owed huge damages for personal injury from the Church of England - or a pension, or something.
