Glad to see 'Barking' got through. It's one of those songs I constantly heard on the radio and struggled to comprehend how such a lazily performed and poorly written song could be successful.

Worst part was it took half an hour of humming the thing in my head trying to remember lyrics and checking top 40 charts from two years ago to figure out what it was called.

I HATE IT.

I also nominated the Tiesto Jackie Chan song for similar reasons to above. Very annoying.

Bobby McFerrin - Don't Worry, Be Happy

Justin Bieber - Baby

DJ Casper - Cha Cha Slide

Captain and Tenille - Muskrat Love

Fleurie and the Jung Youth - In the end

Crazytown - Butterfly (Can't give many reasons RN but I'n not counting Youtube songs)

Mariah Carey - All I want for Christmas

Lenny Kravitz - Fly Away

Nominated another song which seems to have got through the first round but just realised I have let everyone down - and most of all myself.

"Dawn. Tie a yellow Ribbon round the old oak tree"

There. Maybe we should just stop the competition now and apologise for wasting one anothers time.

Well you might get another chance. I have 2 entries in my database that are duplicate entries, so we have scope for a wildcard round for the final spot in round 2. if you want to enter something for the wildcard, send your submission to me by PM. We'll limit it to 2 songs per person and it will appear as the last match in Round 1!

Sorry about last night. I fell asleep putting my daughter to bed and woke up 10 hours later lol - I must have been wrecked

Round 1!!!

First song to reach 5 votes advances

No need for a reason at this point, though people are always welcome to give theirs


Reminder :: You are voting for the WORST song in each one of these matches



Round 1/Match 37

Fr. Brian - Who's in da house ?

Vs

Simply Red - Fairground

A "comedy" song by a then relatively unknown Brendan O'Connor. Sung loudly by drunken morons all over the country back when it was released. Also this song was championed by Ray D'arcy. Thanks a bunch Ray.

Played every single hour on the hour for a year on LW252 back in the 90's. Utter monotony.

Round 1/Match 38

Paris Hilton - Stars are Blind

Vs

Paddy Casey - Saints and Sinners

What happens when money, boredom and entitlement come together

Round 1/Match 39

Frankee - F U Right Back

Vs

Fast Food Rockers - The Fast Food Song

Possibly some idea behind it of female empowerment but hit every level of cringe within reach

Why I Hate It: My sister and brother knew I deplored this song when it came out, so as younger siblings tend to do they used sing it at me constantly. So annoying. :::::::: Just kill me now.

Round 1/Match 40

Coldplay - Yellow

Vs

David Bowie - The Laughing Gnome

I liked them later on when they started working with Brian Eno, but when this came out, I just couldn't stand his voice, and the videoclip didn't help either

that laugh is too freaky

Fr. Brian - Who's in da house? Vs Simply Red - Fairground
Paris Hilton - Stars are Blind Vs Paddy Casey - Saints and Sinners
Frankee - F U Right Back - Fast Food Rockers - The Fast Food Song
Coldplay - Yellow Vs David Bowie - The Laughing Gnome

Kolido

Fr. Brian - Who's in da house, terrible
Paddy Casey - Saints and Sinners, that paris song is catchy
Fast Food Rockers - The Fast Food Song, like the other song.
David Bowie - The Laughing Gnome, again, like the other song.

Awful horrible muck in this round.

You can toss Paddy Casey into the war crimes tribunal along with Bieber and Keating.

Fr. Brian - Who's in da house? Vs Simply Red - Fairground Really don't like Simply Red - good shout whoever picked it.
Paris Hilton - Stars are Blind Vs Paddy Casey - Saints and Sinners
Frankee - F U Right Back - Fast Food Rockers - The Fast Food Song
Coldplay - Yellow Vs David Bowie - The Laughing Gnome

Niska

Fr. Brian - Who's in da house? - comedy / gimicky songs rarely date well
Paris Hilton - Stars are Blind -
Fast Food Rockers - The Fast Food Song - both are terrible, this slighlty more terrible
David Bowie - The Laughing Gnome - like both, but the Bowie one reminded me of the Ballad of Bilbo Baggins by Leonard nemoy, so gets selected for cruelty to my memory

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Fr. Brian - Who's in da house? ; not terrible terrible, but I like Fairground

Paris Hilton - Stars are Blind ; I like Saints amd Sinners

Fast Food Rockers - The Fast Food Song ; my nomination. Hate it.

David Bowie - The Laughing Gnome ; actually I love both songs and don't think either should be here.

Round 1/Match 41

The Blue Mountain Panpipe Ensemble - Sexual Healing

Vs

The Tokens - The Lion Sleeps tonight

Why I Hate It: I accidentally stumbled upon this one while looking for song reminders for this comp and I couldn't not included. Worst Cover Ever!

WORST EARWORM EVER!

Round 1/Match 42

JLO - Get Right

Vs

Nickleback - Rockstar

Apparently they introduced the horns because they wanted something catchy and maybe if it played intermittently it would be bearable….. But the whole way through the song. The most annoying sound and an awful rhythm to it. Its like a faulty car horn

Round 1/Match 43

Jan Terri - Excuse My Christmas

Vs

Beyoncé - All The Single Ladies

I want to introduce cult musician Jan Terri to a wider audience. Her music is only surpassed by her low-budget videos.

Why I Hate It: I never understood the appeal and don't know why so many people, it's an annoying repetitively boring, pain of a song, and Beyonce should have never left Destiny's Child.

Round 1/Match 44

Peter Andre - Mysterious Girl

Vs

Mr. Blobby - Mr. Blobby

I would attempt to kill Mr Blobby if I was ever in a real world scenario where he was dancing to this. And I would succeed. And be found not guilty.

The Blue Mountain Panpipe Ensemble - Sexual Healing Vs The Tokens - The Lion Sleeps tonight
JLO - Get Right Vs Nickleback - Rockstar
Jan Terri - Excuse My Christmas Vs Beyoncé - All The Single Ladies
Peter Andre - Mysterious Girl Vs Mr. Blobby - Mr. Blobby

I *really* hate Simply Red!!!

(not a vote, just sayin')

Also Starring LeVar Burton

The Blue Mountain Panpipe Ensemble - Sexual Healing ; my nomination. An abomination of a cover.

JLO - Get Right ; I really really like Nickelback. There, I said it.

Beyoncé - All The Single Ladies ; my nomination here again. Makes my blood boil every time I hear it. Why is it so popular? Absolutely derivative nonsense. Anyone who likes it should be charged with enabling crimes against music.

Mr. Blobby - Mr. Blobby ; Mysterious Girl is a grand song, Mr Blobby ain't.

What the hell are those two first songs, covers? Jail cells are filling up now we're getting close to shooting people on sight.

Damn Mr. Blobby and Andre are both my nominations. Have to vote for that spotted pink freak though.

Also fook J-Lo, she's a crap actress and a worse singer.

Panpipe versions of songs are an abomination.

Round 1/Match 45

Jan Terri - Journey To Mars

Vs

Alison Gold - Chinese Food

I want to introduce cult musician Jan Terri to a wider audience. Her music is only surpassed by her low-budget videos.

Round 1/Match 46

Roy Orbison - Crying

Vs

Baha Men - Who Let The Dogs out ?

so depressing and that off key voice - suicidal

Round 1/Match 47

Luvbug - You can count on me

Vs

The Wurzels - Combine Harvester

Why I Hate It: The first song my brother decided to learn all the lyrics to as a kid, and he made it his party piece for years, which meant he wanted to practice it ALL! THE! TIME!

Round 1/Match 48

The Verve - Bittersweet Symphony

Vs

Babybird - You're Gorgeous

I hate this guys voice, he sounds exactly like Frank Spencer.

Jan Terri - Journey to Mars Vs Alison Gold - Chinese Food
Roy Orbison - Crying Vs Baha Men - Who let the dogs out?
Luvbug - You can count on me Vs The Wurzels - Combine Harvester
The Verve - Bittersweet Symphony Vs Babybird - You're Gorgeous

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Alison Gold - Chinese Food ; Jan Terri has enough songs in the mix already and this is one of her better ones, but Chinese Food is just terrible

Baha Men - Who Let The Dogs Out? ; almost nominated this one myself, glad to see someone else threw it in

The Wurzels - Combine Harvester ; one of my nominations here. It just does my head in because I had to hear it constantly for so many years

Babybird - You're Gorgeous ; Bitter Sweet Symphony is a great song and shouldn't be here. Unfortunate draw for You're Gorgeous though, which I also don't think should be here

How many bloody Jan Terri songs do we have to be subjected to?

Baha Men is my nomination and it's horrendous!

I dont think either Bittersweet Symphony or You're Gorgeous should be here so I can't in good faith vote for either

Seamai

Any chance we could have a break from Jan Terri? It's getting tiresome. She's not even in the "So bad, it's good" category like say Gerty Molzens cover of "Walk on the Wild Side"
The emphasis should be on the song more so than the singer.

Niska

Alison Gold - Chinese Food - One of my nominations (apologies), and there are enough Jan Terri entries that she'll be well represented later on
Baha Men - Who let the dogs out? - a masterpiece compared to most ot the other songs, but still annoying
Luvbug - You can count on me - I kinda like Combine Harbester
babybird - You're Gorgeous - BSS is a great song, so this by default but still a good song.

100% agree, except in the case of Mariah Carey, she can f**k right off, as I hold her solely responsible for the general decline in the quality of mainstream music over the past 30 years. She's a scourge on society.
