    Yeah I'll be Missing You over Bagatelle. If you look up BLAND in the dictionary you see a picture of Bagatelle under the definition. Last one is tough as I actually like both songs but Big Yellow Taxi I dislike the most.

    Couple of my nominations in there. Ronan Keating's version of Friends in Time is bordering on a war crime.:mad::mad::mad:

    Match 11 I vote Ronan Keating cause his music sounds like a typewriter eating tinfoil getting kicked down the stairs.

    Matches still outstanding. I know its tough when you're looking at the real rubbish that's left behind, but have a listen to them and I'm sure you'll find it in your hearts and the pits of your stomachs to vomit out a "winner" for worse song

    My wife says shes about to commandeer the laptop, so here's 4 more songs to get you through the next hour or so.

    First song to reach 5 votes advances

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


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



    Preliminary Round/Match 13

    Pras - Ghetto Superstar

    Vs

    Chumbawumba - Tubthumping











    Preliminary Round/Match 14

    Lenny Kravitz - Fly Away

    Vs

    Led Zeppelin - Stairway To Heaven











    Preliminary Round/Match 15

    Paris Hilton - Stars are blind

    Vs

    Don McLean - American Pie


    What happens when money, boredom and entitlement come together








    Preliminary Round/Match 16

    Coldplay - Yellow

    Vs

    Jan Terri - Rock N Roll Santa



    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



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

    Votes above. Tubthumping is a good tune imo. Last two deserve to be burned with fire.

    Stairway to Heaven is a funny one as I don't feel anything towards it. But I'd prefer Kravitz out of that battle so it gets my vote :D

    Pras - Ghetto Superstar ; I don't consider either of these to be bad songs, but definitely prefer Tubthumping, so Ghetto Superstar gets my vote

    Led Zeppelin - Stairway To Heaven ; Wow! How either of these amazing songs got nominated is beyond me, but I love Fly Away so regretfully I'm gonna vote for Stairway To Heaven as its a tad overrated.

    Paris Hilton - Stars Are Blind ; absolute garbage

    Jan Terri - Rock N Roll Santa ; I love Yellow, so this would get my vote by default, but I also hate Christmas. Jan Terri as an artist is growing on me after the songs included so far though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,205 ✭✭✭✭Deja Boo


    Chumbawumba - Tubthumping :rolleyes: (even just the name, gag)
    Lenny Kravitz - Fly Away
    Paris Hilton - Stars are blind
    Jan Terri - Rock N Roll Santa

    Pras - Ghetto Superstar

    Lenny Kravitz - Fly Away Vs Led Zeppelin - Stairway To Heaven. Non of these should be nominated, no vote

    Paris Hilton - Stars are blind

    Coldplay - Yellow Vs Jan Terri - Rock N Roll Santa. Jan Terri's music is complete scutter but I hate Coldplay to much not to vote for them. Coldplay

    Some of the nominations so far are quite shocking!

    Final Preliminary Matches before we enter the First Round Proper!

    First song to reach 5 votes advances

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


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



    Preliminary Round/Match 17

    Alison Gold - Chinese Food

    Vs

    Madonna Feat Maluma - Medellin







    I am a big Madonna fan and I think this is her absolute worst




    Preliminary Round/Match 18

    Westlife - You Raise Me Up

    Vs

    Baby Bird - You're Gorgeous


    Louis Walsh has a lot to answer for. This is Westlife so no reasons are needed.


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





    Preliminary Round/Match 19

    Jan Terri - Get Down Goblin

    Vs

    Elmo and Patsy - Grandma Got Run Over by the Reindeer


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








    Preliminary Round/Match 20

    Robin Thicke - Blurred Lines

    Vs

    Cher Lloyd - Swagger Jagger



    Hate is a strong word but I can easily say I hate this song. From the cheesy lyrics to his appearance, I would vote this as the Worst song of all time






    Alison Gold - Chinese Food Vs Madonna Feat Maluma - Medellin
    Westlife - You Raise Me Up Vs Baby Bird - You're Gorgeous
    Jan Terri - Get Down Goblin Vs Elmo and Patsy - Grandma Got Run Over by the Reindeer

    God Madonna has had some awful awful songs.

    Cher Lloyd is my own nomination and its every bit as repulsive as the name suggests. The other two are just awful, and I actually like that Westlife song but it probably loses here

    I had never heard of Jan Terri until this evening. Now I feel like I know her whole back catalogue.

    Blurred Lines is crap, but Swagger Jagger is worse.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,149 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    Chumbawumba - Tubthumping, my nom, its god awfull, getto superstar is a great tune.
    Led Zeppelin - Stairway To Heaven, another of mine, overrated cr@p
    Paris Hilton - Stars are blind, kinda like this tune, but not more than american pie. Did someone nominate the wrong version?
    Jan Terri - Rock N Roll Santa, not familiar with this but that coldplay song is good.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Alison Gold - Chinese Food ; what the actual f**k was that...

    Westlife - You Raise Me Up ; I don't mind Westlife in general and there are far worse songs out there than even this, but not a fan of You Raise Me Up, and You're Gorgeous is enjoyable fare

    Elmo and Patsy - Grandma Got Run Over by the Reindeer ; terrible song altogether, and Jan Terri doesn't actually sound that bad (is she the act that got 9 nominations?)

    Cher Lloyd - Swagger Jagger ; what genius thought, hey that song Oh My Darling Clementine is really sh*te, so lets sample that and make it even more annoying. This is the first time I've listened to it and I already despise it more than a couple of my own nominations. Blurred Lines is rapey as f**k, but if you ignore the lyrics, the tune itself isn't terrible

    Usually for these things if I don’t know a song I’ll give it a listen before making a decision. In this case I think that could be a mistake so I’ll only cast a vote where I know both songs or where I particularly hate the one I know.

    Swagger Jagger passes both of those criteria. I actually had it in my head recently for some reason.

    On the contrary, I encourage you to listen to all the entries. Just so you can appreciate how good the music is that you are listening to on a more normal basis

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,055 ✭✭✭✭Tell me how


    Preliminary Round/Match 17
    Alison Gold - Chinese Food - Terrible. Expect a team like Jean-Ralphio and Tom Haverford were behind this.


    Preliminary Round/Match 18
    Baby Bird - You're Gorgeous - Package Holiday Karaoke Nightmare.

    Preliminary Round/Match 19
    Jan Terri - Get Down Goblin - Listened to as much as I could bear of both. This won by 2 seconds.

    Preliminary Round/Match 20
    Cher Lloyd - Swagger Jagger - Manufactured Pop at its horrible worst.
