Yes, that is an especially odious dirge, a socialist gazillionaire urging us to give up our posessions, and sniffily positing that us Mere Mortals have no idea how. John was pretty scrappy growing up, it's astonishing he forgot so quickly.

No listing of "Worst Songs" would be complete without SEVERAL tunes from the 1970's, for some reason. Practically anything by Barry Manilow deserves inclusion on general principles, but "I Write The Songs" is especially execreble and should suffice to preclude the dear reader from investigating further. You have been warned.

"Seasons in the Sun"

"The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down"

"Young Girl,Get Out Of My Mind"

"If You're Going To San Fran Cisco"

"Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Yellow Polka Dot Bikini"

Lennon was world class at projecting his yearning for long lost mum on the rest of the world....that neurosis really defined him.

"Lovin' You," Minnie Riperton. Says it all. And after you hear the high note, you won't hear anything for a week.

You should hear Robbie Robertson's "TNTDODD" -it's good, sad, but good.

You don't like the original version by the Band of "Drove ol Dixie Down".

I'm friends with Gary Puckett's booking agent here....those old 60s crooners still book small clubs and corporate gigs for as long as they want to work...amazing.

I confess to liking all of the Union Gap's old singles....and worse....Paul Revere and the Raiders, Grass Roots, Dave Clarke Five....and on and on

shameful isn't it?

"there's a little gold ring she wears on her hand to make me understand".....reminds me of a 6th grade infatuation with an older gal....she was a 7th grader..lol

don't forget "na-na-na-na hey hey goodbye". I do not know the actual title. But just typing the lyrics makes me want to throw my computer out the window.

You forgot "The Night Chicago Died" and "Billy, Don't Be A Hero"......:))
