Awful, but not quite as bad as 'whambam' from the Handley Family or the rest of Junior Showtime.

Sad to say this popped into my head today and I couldn't remember if it was them or Bros.

Shockingly bad. He's trying to rap!

Believe by Cher, truly the worst song ever recorded by the worst singer.

Great songs made bad by:
Anything shouted by Whitney Houston.
Anything ruinously covered by Bryan Ferry

Undoubtedly. ;) That's what makes music such a wonderful thing.

My music taste is quite eclectic, but not eclectic enough to include Freddie and his mates. I just don't `get it`.

I'm sure there are Queen fans out there who can't abide Springsteen, or Dylan, and I find that strange, but that's fine.

No! worst ever can only be "Son of my Father" by Chicory Tip.

Complete and utter irritating shoite. Can't even be bothered looking for a link best consigned to the rubbish bin marked worst song ever.

Not sure about worst song ever but some mentioned earlier that they didn't "get" queen and whilst I love Queen I can understand the sentiment as I just have never understood the popularity of Pink Floyd.

Always associated it with Rovers until Burnley started playing it before the last couple of league home games and home play off semi of the 2008/2009 promotion season.

I will. I could never stand Liam Gallagher's whiny voice, and the blatant attempts to copy the Beatles.

I'm convinced that a lot their fans at the time, all just said they liked them to appear cool.

Another one here not getting Pink Floyd. A load of self indulgent bloody claptrap. Not that I am Queen fan either btw but they're easier to listen too.

‘Love Shack’ by The B52s. Utterly dreadful.

A special mention for some of the more anthemic numbers by Oasis; feel good pap by a paint-by-numbers tribute act, pleasing only to those who’s idea of a good time is telling everyone what a good time they’re having.

The only saving grace is that they seem to centre their affectation on John Lennon. Imagine how much worse they would have been if it had been Paul McCartney. Britpop granny music FFS.
