This shall be the thread of songs that you play to torture others (family, friends, co-workers, people sitting next to you at a stop light) or songs that get stuck in your head even though they are terrible.

I shall begin.

Rednex - Cotton Eye Joe (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddgyg_5FF_0&feature=list_related&playnext=1&list=AVGxdCwVVULXcLHutpBTQXcUp5p8Nt-WmW)

Toni Basil - Hey Mickey (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4CyNvEfWoE)

C'mon. Join in the horribleness.

The best part of this thread is that I guarantee at least 50% of the songs mentioned here will be ones that I have on my playlist, listen to frequently, and love.

We're already off to a good start :jess:

I am well aware of the irony of the statement I am about to utter but, kids today dont appreciate the value of a well done autotune. (and old people are just elitist who discount anything with an autotune)

I loathe this guy (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lpl6bFBwHq4). and yeah all his music is like this. the beat is too cool though. if you cant hear cause of his stupidity, look for the instrumental.

Tom Lehrer - Poisoning Pigeons in the Park (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhuMLpdnOjY)

Fuck you foa. :mad2:

Tom Lehrer is freakin' awesome, he far from qualifies as 'so bad it's good'. :mad2:

Anything by Owl City. I hate that guy. He completely ripped off The Postal service, but made it worse by adding more dancey style synths. His lyrics are absolute nonsensical madlibs. Ex: "(name an group of insects) are (verb)ing all around my (bodypart)" pops up in every damn song. And he's awfully gay for being a straight conservative republican. All of his songs are about (verb)ing in the (animal)-looking (landscape feature). And getting kisses from unicorns and tit.

But I'll be damned if every single one of the songs isn't catchy...

I would still talk to you. It would just be in much louder, disappointed tones.

There would also be talking behind you back. A lot of it. :D

Nickleback shall never be allowed into the "so bad, it's good" category. They are forever shunned into the "simply awful" genre along with Buck Cherry. barf!!!!

Kesha - Tik Tok (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iP6XpLQM2Cs)

EDIT: Oh wait, foa mentioned it. Then this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JwQZQygg3Lk)one also applies. Really almost anything by the Black Eyed Peas. They take mediocre things or dope beats, and remix them with auto-tune.

I'm going to make a serious list of songs pretty bad but good enough to enjoy so here goes.

Hanson - MMMBop (http://youtu.be/NHozn0YXAeE)
Wham! - Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go (http://youtu.be/pIgZ7gMze7A)
Tom Jones - It's Not Unusual (http://youtu.be/UOArsNMVqGg) (Aka the Carlton Dance song)
Sir Mix-A-Lot - Baby Got Back (http://youtu.be/reTx5sqvVJ4)
Right Said Fred - I`m Too Sexy (http://youtu.be/39YUXIKrOFk)

Five should be enough.

What's New Pussycat, although the version done by Abe Simpson in The Simpsons is hilarious:

"What's new pussycat? *hip cracks* Owwww-ow-oww-ow! What's new pussycat? *knee cracks* Ohhhhh god nooo-oo-ooo!" :jess:

Look NeoCracker, it's an awesome awesome song but it IS a little cheesy.

ALSO PIKE I LOVE YOU SO MUCH THAT IS MY JAM. Have my babies.

Here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyYnnUcgeMc) is a song that actually makes me kind of ashamed.
