Don't we all secretly love the song "Summer of 69"? And there where lots of great rock'n'roll in the 80's. You just have to find the right records.

Worst song ever? Anything by Queen I guess.

Anything by Queen?? Granted, most of it I can do without but when they rock..."It's Late" is one of my alltime faverite songs.

i think switzerland has to offer one of the worst songs ever:

Donna Fargo has not one, but two contenders.









Not to be outdone, here's Oliver (the Anti-Mick).









Even the lip-sync is off on this one! Truly awful. Pure cheese.

Dominic the Donkey which I heard far too many times over Christmas!!!

"Anything by _____"

Come on! That's not picking the worst song ever. That's just lazily trying to 'flaunt' your taste, or whatever. "Look at me, I hate (Zeppelin, The Who, Pink Floyd)!!!! How do you like that? Ha-ha!"

Many songs are by artists that I don't like, but I still wouldn't consider them the 'worst song ever' (I really dislike the Doors, but that doesn't automatically make me claim that LA Woman is the worst song ever).

Or, if there's a song I hate by a group I love (ie, Sweet Neo Con, Back to Zero, Stupid Girl), does that make it the 'worst song ever? Okay, bad examples for my point!

Or, if I've heard a song way too many times which I originally thought was so-so (if I hear Picture by Sheryl Crow and Kid Rock again I'll stab my own ear) does that make it the worst song ever? I wasn't in love with it at first, but I didn't hate it nearly like I do 1 1/2 years later.

I think 'worst song ever' of course would vary greatly from one individual to another, but the selection process to me would have less to do with the artist and more to do with how much the song makes you go "Oh God - what the #$%& is this??" And understand why the song is making you want to harm small animals.

Hear's a song that makes my ears bleed from start to finish. I am not a hip-hop hater, but this song is like a loud car alarm going outside when being stuck in downtown traffic in July at noon with no air conditioner....

Anyone who lists a Beatles, Zeppelin, Who, etc.. song as the 'worst song ever' is seriously demented.

I love the Beatles but can't stand "Yes it is" Since you're puting labels, what does that makes me?

worst is hard - here are a few contenders

Revealing Science of God - Yes

The scary thing is that Revealing Science of God isn't even the worst song on Tales from Topographic Oceans. The Ancient (side 3) with the interminable slide noodling is far worse. Soundchaser on Relayer isn't a whole lot better. As far as making new music goes, Yes pretty much lost the plot when Bill Bruford left.

This is my anti-stress song. Just love how it quiets my mind.

Springsteen's "Born In The USA" Terrible! ( don't like the rest either)

I lurv very much of Bruce's work; but I agree on BITUSA..
Sounds like he is stuck in mud or semi-coagulated cement when he sings..
