    Reberetta...HOW did you learn about the musical stylings of Jan?

    It's a long, tragic story of bittersweet tears, misspent youth and romance that wasn't meant to be in an ancient and forgotten land.

    Someday, over a campfire, when I am ready, I shall relate it to you-if I deem you worthy child-and you can then pass the forbidden lore down to future generations. Until then, I leave you with this...

    Fun fact: she went on tour with Marilyn Manson.

    Actually, I dislike titles in real life too. I don't quite see the point in them.

    I used to work in retail and whenever myself and one of my colleagues were addressed as "sir" or "ma'am", which wasn't that often in fairness, we'd turn to each other and make gagging faces... Titles are a real pet peeve of mine... Gendered ones, especially.

    Ah no, I think the Winner should be a song that makes you so angry that you want to rip the stereo from the wall and launch it through the window and just smash the place up.

    Good bad songs are another competition altogether. What you want here is music you'd use to torture someone.

    The Fox is too good to be The Absolute Worst


    That's how Ronan Keating murdering Friends in Time makes me feel. While that version exists the fox will never be the worst.

    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 :D


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



    Round 1/Match 1

    Nelly - Hot In Here

    Vs

    Dionne Warwick - Do you know the way to San Jose






    really don't like anything about it, lalalalalalala



    Round 1/Match 2

    Crowded House - Take the weather with you

    Vs

    Richie Kavanagh - Aon Focal Eile


    Hate the vocals, the lyrics. Hate the fact that it got and still gets massive airplay.


    Stupid song from a stupid man who looks like he should be on some sort of watchlist. A favourite of drunken arseholes when it was first released.



    Round 1/Match 3

    The Monkees - Daydream Believer

    Vs

    3 of a kind - Babycakes












    Round 1/Match 4

    Silent A3 - Watch Me

    Vs

    The Tweets - The Birdie Song



    Meaningless lyrics, and everyone in the video trying to be something they are not in an effort to be uber cool. F Right Off.






    Nelly - Hot In Here Vs Dionne Warwick - Do you know the way to San Jose
    Crowded House - Take the weather with you Vs Richie Kavanagh - Aon Focal Eile
    The Monkees - Daydream Believer Vs 3 of a kind - Babycakes

    Dionne Warwick - Do You Know the Way to San Jose ; I like Hot In Herre, so gotta go with Dionne Warwick on this one

    Richie Kavanagh - Aon Focal Eile ; Weather With You is a great song and whoever nominated it is wrong. Aon Focal Eile is indeed terrible

    3 of a Kind - Babycakes ; whoever nominated Daydream Believer is now on my list of enemies, The Monkees are awesome!!! I quite like Babycakes, and against any other song it'd probably be the one I prefer, but I can't vote for Daydream Believer

    The Tweets - The Birdie Song ; I hate it. Not crazy about the other either, but I really hate The Birdie Song

    Round 1/Match 1 Nelly - Hot In Here (Don't think it'll go far in the competition, but it's the worst song in this match up
    Round 1/Match 2 Richie Kavanagh - Aon Focal Eile (Cringe inducing)
    Round 1/Match 3 3 of a kind - Babycakes (Can't stand this genre of music so happy to vote them in)
    Round 1/Match 4 Silent A3 - Watch Me (What happens when you let the algorithm have the final say. Over produced, over-hyped noise.

    Nelly - Hot In Here. I hate Burt Bacharach songs so much, but not quite as much as the sh*te that gets pawned off as R&B these days.

    Richie Kavanagh - Aon Focal Eile. In any other universe that godawful Crowded House song would walk this, but this "song" is an absolute abomination.

    3 of a kind - Babycakes. I don't know who nominated The Monkees, but if I ever find out I'm coming for you.

    The Tweets - The Birdie Song. No explanation needed.

    Dionne Warwick - Do you know the way to San Jose. Not a bad song really but Nelly’s an old fave of mine.

    Richie Kavanagh - Aon Focal Eile. Embarrassing immature sh*te adored by the type of people that call you ‘lad’ and think drinking is a personality.

    3 of a kind - Babycakes. Absolute f*cking poison. Hope it wins the lot. No wonder we never heard from these wankpuffins again.

    The Tweets - The Birdie Son. Because not only do I like to whip, but I also like to nae nae.

    Nelly - Hot In Here Vs Dionne Warwick - Do you know the way to San Jose. Don't think either song is bad but I'll go with Dionne Warwick

    Crowded House - Take the weather with you Vs Richie Kavanagh - Aon Focal Eile. Has to be Richie Kavanagh even though it isn't all that bad

    The Monkees - Daydream Believer Vs 3 of a kind - Babycakes. I kind of like daydream believer so Babycakes it is

    Silent A3 - Watch Me Vs The Tweets - The Birdie Song. The Birdie Song, complete nonsense!

    Dionne Warwick. That Nelly song was alright when it originally came out.

    I'd have voted the Monkees too because I see them as 70s Beatles wannabes. And I hate The Beatles.

    Dionne Warwick - Do you know the way to San Jose (cringey earworm)
    Richie Kavanagh - Aon Focal Eile
    3 of a kind - Babycakes
    Silent A3 - Watch Me (they're both awful, but the chicken dance is a classic)

    :o I kinda like that Monkees tune.

    Fair point, but he ain't no Chuck Berry or Sam Cooke. What's classed as R&B since the 80s has pretty much no rhythm and it most certainly isn't the blues.

    Soulja Boy - Crank That ; pure sh**e and Bridge Over Troubled Water is a classic

    The Chats - Smoko ; both are fairly decent actually, but Mark Gormley oozes personality and doesn't deserve to be here

    Eamon - **** it (I dont want you back) ; Eamon can F*** off, dreadful song. Virus isn't the worst for something thrown together

    Dennis Waterman and George Cole - What are we gonna get er indoors ; both crap, but this one especially so. Still think Cliff Richard was worse though and should be here instead.
