[who knows what evil?]

I had a HUGE music collection from 1967 thru 1985 or so, but I am not familiar with these dogs, save for a few. I assumed most were post-1985 tunes.

How do you feel about “Sharing the Night Together?”

[Political Junkie Too]

Any song about dying in like Honey or Seasons in the Sun are on my change-the-channel list.

The Postmodern Jukebox cover of All About That Bass is pretty good.

Sky Rocket’s in flight, afternoon delight.

C&T. I didn’t know, or need to know, that there was another.

When I saw the thread title, “Gangnam Style” came immediately to mind.

And I might give Peter Tosh a pass on his Jagger duet, if I didn’t have to watch the video.

“Ebony and Ivory”...vomit inducing.

The Sinatra version was better.

You are black and I am white
You are blind as a bat and I have sight

Side by side, you are my amigo
Negro — let’s not fight!

[I-ambush]

Jim Dandy was Mozart compared to most contemporary musicians.

[gundog]

Yes. That had mercifully slipped my mind.

[dfwgator]

Anything by Wham! or George Michael.

[Fungi]

Ditto. The guy can’t sing and a rabid leftist to boot.

[Alberta's Child]

My Sharona.

Affectionately known as "My Scrotum" to a bunch of us back in our silly juvenile days. LOL.

Monster Mash

I gotta admit the chortling of the muskrats is a little over top, I picture Toni Tenile still performing in some low end dive bar in Las Vegas minus her goofy husband Darryl Dragon and his captain’s hat

[crusty old prospector]

Fee Tines a Mady, Wookin’ Pa Nub, Una Panoonah Banka, Barbah Ob Dabil.

[KarlInOhio]

24. “We Built This City” by Starship

How is this not every song on the list? Especially since they started licensing it for commercials.

Here's an architectural hint: if you want to build a city, use concrete instead of any type of music.

[kawhill]

I don’t know about the worst, but the best is Chumbawamba - Tubthumping. Who doesn’t like a song about ‘pissing the night away’!

[Locomotive Breath]

“MacArthur Park”

Any version but especially the one by Richard Harris.

[dfwgator]

Poor Buckwheat.

America Mourns....and Texxon is there!
