[Centerstream]

Not sure if this thread has been posted in the past, so just after hearing my choice on the radio, here goes.

Starship (not to be confused with Jefferson Starship or Jefferson Airplane) "We Built This City".

This song popped into my head instantly when I saw the thread title.

Others that followed were "Mr. Roboto" and "(You're) Having My Baby."

I am not posting videos because no one needs reminding.

I won't post actual videos, because I wouldn't do that to someone.

But here are my worst.

1. Hallelujah - Leonard Cohen (covered by....everyone)
2. Imagine - John Lennon
3. My Pal Foot Foot - The Shaggs

How about "You Light Up My Life"? What a clunker that was. If I never hear it again it will be too soon. Couldn't change the station quickly enough when that one came on. "The Christmas Shoes" is right down there too...

Oddly, Hallelujah is one of my favorites. But it was the music that originally attracted me, I can't make much of the lyrics.

Of all the songs listed so far, and I largely agree they are all fairly awful, I couldn't remember what the "Name Game" was. So I hit play and turned my speaker on. It took about 1 line to remember and 1 more to get the speaker turned back off. Ugh.

If my Dad (1921 - 1983) were posting he would nominate this song. He always told me how much his Dad (whom I never knew) hated this song, and how he flung this 78 record across the room. The full title was "Barney Google with the goo-goo-googily eyes. (Almost 100 years before google was a household brand.)

That must be where Koogle Peanut Butter got their original ad campaign, "Here comes Koogle with the koo-koo-koogly eyes..."
