So, Darryl suggested to me, that we adopt the same procedures, that we use in the 'Normal' Top Tens, meaning everybody makes a list of their ten worst songs which gets points from 10 to 1 etc.

Do you think that will work? Do you have further suggestions/comments?

In the moment we have ca. 120 nominations. I think that's enough. How about you? Do you want to keep nominating before we start the voting?

So if you're all in favour of this, I'll make a list of all nominations and you can take your Ten Worst Songs out of it :)

Looking forward your opinions...

Sounds good - if, as Peaches said , you don't mind doing it ... #1 , then , will be the song we like the least and so on ? :thumbsup: :bow:

1. My Humps - Black Eyed Peas (after much thought, I have decided this is indeed the worst song of all time, narrowly beating 50 Cent's "In Da Club", which I didn't nominate because I didn't want to nominate any rap songs).

2. Macarena - Los Del Rio

3. Wannabe - Spice Girls

4. Can't Get You Out Of My Head - Kylie Minogue

5. Who Let The Dogs Out - The Baha Men

6. Candy Shop - 50 Cent

7. Gasolina - Daddy Yankee

8. Beep - The Pussycat Dolls

9. Check On It - Beyonce feat. Slim Thug (monotone chorus = GENIUS!)

10. Hollaback Girl - Gwen Stefani

3. Roxanne

4. Superman

5. Revolution 9

3. Tiptoe Through the Tulips--Tiny Tim

4. Who Let the Dogs Out?--Baha Men

1. California Girls - David Lee Roth

2. Welcome To The Jungle - Guns 'N' Roses

These Top Two votes are based entirely on the vocal stylings of Diamond Dave (his squeeze-toy squeaks are the reason I never got into Van Halen) and Axl (must have studied with Carol Channing)

3. We Built This City - Starship

4. Bicycle Race - Queen

5. Having My Baby - Paul Anka

6. Achy Breaky Heart - Billy Ray Cyrus

7. Feelings - Morris Albert

8. Kokomo - Beach Boys

9. Wannabe - Spice Girls

10.Sugar, Sugar - The Archies ... Only the version of this song performed by cartoon characters. Wilson Pickett's cover is superlative.

This is really, really, really, hard... I think I had to narrow it down from fifty! I think the trouble lies in the fact that some artists have more than one nomination like Britney Spears and the Pussycat Dolls. I think I only voted for two of my own nominations :P

I could almost cry there are so many songs I really like on the list :(

I feel so "out" :(

You're too sensitive , EA ! ;) For me , could be just overplay or a case of rubbing you the wrong way at some point in many cases ... along with simply ' sucking ' . This is much easier than the top 10 ! :laughing: What was that damn Tiffany song anyway - or Boney M's " Mary's Boy Child " ?!

#1 : Bat Dance

#2 : Thriller

#3 : Don't Worry , Be Happy

#4 : We Built This City

#5 : Bicycle Race

#6 : Macarena

#7 : Kokomo

#8 : Everything I Do

#9 : California Girls

#10 : Dust In The Wind
