Haven't bothered with Pulse after a decade of disappointment with the band, can you blame me? Perhaps I will pick it up.

Can't blame you, but Gilmour/Mason killed it and their lightshow was awesome 🙂

DSoTM in its entirety is also awesome.

Agreed. Watching Pulse on tv was better than most concerts I've been to.

Is that really worse than Octopus' Garden?

Mr. Moonlight is the worst Beatles song ever.. there's no question in my mind anyway. It makes those two look like #1 hits.

I don't care for Beatles for Sale period.

Yeah, Beatles for Sale is widely acknowledged as their worst album. Mr. Moonlight is definitely the worst Beatles song IMO.
 
How about David Bowie + Mic Jagger: Dancing in the Streets for the combo deal? Though David Bowie has a long history of sucking terribly to begin with.
 
Let's see...there are a couple of songs on Van Halen III that might qualify.

Guns n Roses' "Use Your Illusion".....two discs were 1 too many. There were enough good songs for one good CD, not two.

And need I mention St. Anger by Metallica? How could the band that wrote And Justice For All, Ride the Lightning, etc, make a turd like St Anger?

Jagger might disagree about how well Bowie sucks. :evil:

Portishead - Sour Times (unlike any other PH song, and terrible, and especially terrible on PNYC)
Sonic Youth - Sugarcane (obvious attempt at radio hitdom)
Tool - Crawl Away - (the most uninspired, obvious, and trite lyrics of any Tool song)
Pink Floyd - anything past The Wall is NOT by Pink Floyd, should not be considered Pink Floyd, yet is titled PF and loved by the can't-let-go PF fans, i.e. anything on Momentary Lapse, Division Bell, etc.

Crawl Away? Paul was freakin awesome in that song. One of my all time fav tones, even to this day.

Funny thing is, the first song that jumped into my mind is Sober. I love Tool, but that song is just god awful. I mean, really. Really. Really bad.

Have to agree with you there. Sober is the only Tool song that sounds to me like it's a crappy recording from some guy's cell phone - it's just awful. And the only Tool song that I would use that word for.
