    Shout out to my honorary co-host Homer J. Fong who you'll be seeing a lot of in the comments :D

    A few songs finished on the same points total so the nod was given to those who got the highest individual scores (e.g. most tens)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,024 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    Alright we're starting off at number 67 with the song you all hated the most :pac:

    (I don't think it's half as annoying as the songs that follow it but that's my opinion.)













    It may shock you to hear I put some of these songs in for the laugh knowing they hadn't a snowball's chance in hell of winning

    My instinct was to hate this but when the operatic voice kicked in it was sufficiently surreal to push this from "just plain bad" into "so bad it's actually amazing" territory. Bravo!

    Exactly!

    I doubt she's the SHYEST girl in the WHOLE wide world, she wouldn't be singing in a Eurodance band with three bouncers if she was.
