Do They Know it’s X-Mas was not even as bad as that piece of crap—We Are The World...Now that was a dreadful song.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

No, that would be John Lennon's "Imagine."

[Blind Eye Jones]

You they are full of sh*t when they use false modesty. Ego is their supreme virtue.

He’s understandably sick of it, but I think it’s a great song (but with some iffy turns of phrase). I can’t stand “We are the World” though.

[Lurker]

He's wrong. The worst song in the world is "Philosophy Of The World" by The Shaggs.

"Do They Know It's Christmas" is in 2nd place.

[ClearCase_guy]

On the other hand, “I Don’t Like Mondays” is a great song.

The worst Christmas Song Ever is “Step Into Christmas” by Elton John.

[skeeter]

We Are The World...Now that was a dreadful song.

As terrible as the song was, at least Do They Know its Christmas was an original idea.

[albie]

Worst song ever is “Drop the Pilot” by Joan Armitrading.

"There's a world outside your window, and its a world of dread and fear"

I guess that is what Geldof thinks when the carolers come to sing on his lawn.

[MissTed]

No, that would be John Lennon's "Imagine."

AMEN! Worst piece of tripe ever written!

[texmexis best]

Worst performance ever is “Walking in a Winter Wonderland” played by a Mariachi band of no particular merit. The horns are tuned sharp and it is enough to make your ears bleed.

It plays every year in Houston on the radio stations and it is horrible...and yet I am strangly drawn to it ........

[texmexis best]

“Imagine” is the worst song ever written. Laughably bad. In a class by itself.

“We are the world” is second.
“It’s small world” is also second. A tie for awfulage.

[hoagy62]

No, that would be John Lennon's "Imagine".

And yet, it is still the last song played over the loudspeakers before midnight in Times Square on New Year's Eve.

People! People! People!

We need not be arguing over which song is the worst... they can ALL be the worst!

[lefty-lie-spy]

“so ya, thought ya, might like to...” make an awesome movie with Pink Floyd. Happy to see you saw your shitty stuff as shit. Rock n roll is real, pop is slop. Bob will always be Pinkerton!!!

[lefty-lie-spy]

Oh, and shave off your other nipple to make amends. :)
