I hate "back in the saddle." I heard it's on their greatest hits album?!?! man, talk about a waste of money, time, and resources spent recording a song that sucks butt.

another craptacular song, i absolutely can not stand. "who let the dogs out" come on...who let those guys get a recording contract?!?!
 
The worst song ever made is S.F.C.C. by the Mentors.


What is SFCC? First ya Suck then ya Fvck then you Cook and last you Clean...get to work bitch!


 
Okay, I really, really dislike Aerosmith, who I regard as a mediocre band distinguished primarily by their longevity, but "Back in the Saddle Again" is sheer genius compared to, say, "Love In an Elevator," or any of their other work since about 1990.

the most annoying song award in my book goes to... starland vocal band - afternoon delight. ever seen P.C.U. ? (stay up till 2am on comedy central, but nevertheless a classic college movie) try listening to thatm on repeat, guaranteed insanity.

I worked at McDonalds for a while, and they had a 50s theme. For some reason they played Afternoon Delight on a CD that had 7 songs. They played the same 7 songs over and over and over again. 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Over and over and over and over and over.....
I think "Afternoon Delight" was from much later than the '50s - like middle '70s.

I never cared much for Bob Dylan, espescially "Positively 4th Street" and "Like A Rolling Stone".

 
Anything by David Geddes.

Here's a sample...


Run Joey Run
David Geddes

Daddy please don't, it wasn't his fault, he means so much to me
Daddy please don't, we're gonna get married...just you wait and see.

She called me up, late last night, she said Joe, don't come over
My dad and I just had a fight, and he stormed out the door
I've never seen him act his this way, my God, hes going crazy
He says he's gonna make you pay, for what we've done, he's got a gun, so

Run Joey Run Joey Run
Daddy please don't, it wasn't his fault, he means so much to me
Daddy please don't, we're gonna get married...just you wait and see.

I got in my car and I drove like mad, till I reached Julie's place
She ran to me, with tears in her eyes, and bruises on her face
All at once, I saw him there, sneaking up behind me, WATCH OUT!
Then Julie yelled, he's got a gun, and she stepped in front of me
Suddenly, a shot rang out, and I saw Julie falling
I ran to her, I held her close, when I looked down, my hands were red,
and heres the last words Julie said...

Daddy please don't, it wasn't his fault, he means so much to me
Daddy please don't, we're gonna get married.....aaahhh..ahhhh
ahhhh....ahhhhh

Run Joey run Joey run Joey run Joey run Joey run

 
Everybody, get on the floor, let's dance!
Don't fight your feelings, give yourself a chance!
Shake shake shake, shake shake shake,
Shake your booty! Shake your booty!
Oh, shake shake shake, shake shake shake,
Shake your booty! Shake your booty.
You can, you can do it very well.
You're the best in the world, I can tell.
Shake shake shake, shake shake shake,
Shake your booty! Shake your booty!
Oh, shake shake shake, shake shake shake,
Shake your booty! Shake your booty.
Shake shake, shake shake!
Shake shake, shake shake!
Shake shake shake, shake shake shake,
Shake your booty! Shake your booty!
Oh, shake shake shake, shake shake shake,
Shake your booty! Shake your booty.

Yeah, Afternoon Delight was later than the 50s for sure. I don't like Bob Dylan's voice, but he's a good songwritter. Look at "All along the Watchtower".

Ack! 311 rocks. They're one of the only bands from the last decade that has any talent.


A lot of people will say that, even some Indie snobs which is surprising, but their lyrics lack substance. They write songs about writing songs, and they look like a friggin GAP commercial. The 2nd vocalist is as annoying as hell too.

yeah i agree. they have a nice clean sound and a good groove but the lyrics and vocals are so terrible. Kind of sad actually.
