NewYorkMets9 Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 (edited) Is "Hero" by Mariah Carey the worst song ever? I say YES! A big, resounding YES! It's just awful. It's the sappiest crap ever recorded. The lyrics are at 4th grade level. The melody is like one huge cliche. I just remembered how much I hate this awful song and people who think that it's touching and should be played for actual heroes. If I was a police officer who saved someone's life and they played me this song as a tribute, I'd probably kill them.

Lucky Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 I don't know about this particular song being the worst ever....anything by Mariah Carey is the worst to me.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voodooflowerchild Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 i thought you might have been referring to the song chad kroeger did called hero. because i also think that that may have been the worst song ever. but then i figured out that you were talking about mariah carey, and i had to agree.

Batman Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 Actually, I believe that title belongs to "My Pal Foot Foot" by the Shaggs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenacious_Peaches Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 This will be the fourth time in my tenure here that I shall dredge up this steaming pile of defecation as the worst song ever. Same artist, different song... click if you dare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levis Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 AGH!!! I'd add Loverboy to that list.. Actually all her songs make me nauseous by their mere names... Butterfly, Honey, Rainbow, Daydream, Glitter, Loverboy, Charmbracelet, Boy, Fantasy... So some are albums, some are movies, but they all sound the same Ack, ack, ack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farin Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 When we're talking about the worst song ever, all I can say is, you should be glad you're not living here and thereby be exposed to the "music" of Modern Talking. *barfing graemlin* Cheri, Cheri Lady ~ Modern Talking Oh, I cannot explain. Every time it's the same. Oh I feel that it's real. Take my heart. I've been lonely too long. Oh, I can't be so strong. Take the chance for romance, take my heart. I need you so. There's no time I'll ever go. Cheri, cheri lady. Going through a motion. Love is where you find it. Listen to your heart. Cheri, cheri lady. Living in devotion. It's always like the first time. Let me take a part. Cheri, cheri lady. Like there's no tomorrow. Take my heart - don't lose it. Listen to your heart. Cheri, cheri lady. To know you is to love you. If you call me baby I'll be always yours. I get up - I get down. All my world turns around. Who is right ? Who is wrong ?. I don't know. I've got pain in my heart. Got a love in my soul. Easy come, but I think easy go. I need you so. Although times I move so slow. Cheri, cheri lady. Going through a motion. Love is where you find it. Listen to your heart. Cheri, cheri lady. Living in devotion. It's always like the first time. Let me take a part. Cheri, cheri lady. Like there's no tomorrow. Take my heart - don't lose it. Listen to your heart. Cheri, cheri lady. To know you is to love you. If you call me baby I'll be always yours. Cheri, cheri lady. Like there's no tomorrow. Take my heart - don't lose it. Listen to your heart. Cheri, cheri lady. To know you is to love you. If you call me baby I'll be always yours. Cheri, cheri lady. Like there's no tomorrow. Take my heart - don't lose it. Listen to your heart. Cheri, cheri lady. To know you is to love you. If you call me baby I'll be always yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 Farin, are you sure that's not Wham ? I like All I Want For Christmas Is You by Mariah Carey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 McArthur Park- Donna Summer. When she gets to the "sweet green icing flowing down" part, I think I may be dangerously close to a brain hemmorhage.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 (edited) This song is absolutely nails scraping the chalkboard cringe inducing rubbish. You're In My Heart (rod stewart) I didn’t know what day it was When you walked into the room I said hello unnoticed You said goodbye too soon Breezing through the clientele Spinning yarns that were so lyrical I really must confess right here The attraction was purely physical I took all those habits of yours That in the beginning were hard to accept Your fashion sense, beardsly prints I put down to experience The big bosomed lady with the dutch accent Who tried to change my point of view Her ad lib lines were well rehearsed But my heart cried out for you Chorus: You’re in my heart, you’re in my soul You’ll be my breath should I grow old You are my lover, you’re my best friend You’re in my soul My love for you is immeasurable My respect for you immense You’re ageless, timeless, lace and fineness You’re beauty and elegance You’re a rhapsody, a comedy You’re a symphony and a play You’re every love song ever written But honey what do you see in me (chorus) You’re an essay in glamour Please pardon the grammar But you’re every schoolboy’s dream You’re celtic, united, but baby I’ve decided You’re the best team I’ve ever seen And there have been many affairs Many times I’ve thought to leave But I bite my lip and turn around ’cause you’re the warmest thing I’ve ever found (chorus) The lyrics are just dreadful.

daslied Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 My first thought when I saw the thread title was the Enrique Iglesias song. So that's also the worst ever. And there's a dance remix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farin Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 Farin, are you sure that's not Wham ? The music is equally as bad, but sadly Modern Talking was much more succesful, thus getting much more airplay... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tenacious_Peaches Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 And that video was crap-tastic as well. Jennifer Love Boob-ett? Mickey Rourke? Over-the-top acting and a convoluted story line that had nothing to do with the song? Yikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheval Noir Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 This coming from a guy with a MC Hammer avatar I do like their music. They were played often back in the 80s. "Cheri Cheri Lady" and "Brother Louie" were two big hits around the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farin Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 This coming from a guy with a MC Hammer avatar Touché... ok, I respect that, I don't have to like it, though... my hate for them is probably heightened, because I know their attitude besides the music (in TV-shows etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheval Noir Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 Aren't most artists kind of off-putting with their attitudes? Can't blame 'em - you gotta be your best promoter in the arena of Pop musak. Worst would be anything in the last 15 years by Janet Jackson. Worse than Mariah, Bette Midler, Modern Talking, and Spear Britnay COMBINED Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
