Joe Dolce? What sort of choice is that? It's crap, everyone agrees. But at least it kept Viennna off the number one slot.

A blanket condemnation of Alison Moyet? What including the great Yazooos Don't Go and Only You?

Too many to continue typing? Why?

What's a-matter you...?

[quote name=But Charlies' date=' isn't there a consensus among people with ears that Heroes And Villains, God Only Knows, Good Vibrations, Dancing Queen, Knowing Me Knowing You and The Day Before You Came are all three minute packages of sonic joy?

Give me that much at least.

Come on Charlies. Too Rye Ay.]

Oh heck Charlies, I didn't realise you were unwell.

Take regular doses of Barbra Ann, The Sloop John B, Waterloo and half a Super Trouper.

If it fails to curb the illness, Ring Ring your doctor. It'll be time to send an SOS.

Agado was never MEANT to be a song, Mike. It was a novelty. Akin to a Chrismas tree bauble and nothing more.

I thought that the subtext of Quids original post was to look at 'credible', 'classic' songs and c@nt them off on a personal level.

Leastways that's how I took it.


The Joker - Steve Miller, bought it at the time, now cannot accept 'pompatus'. And the guitar is just way too astringent.

F@ck off Miller.

See what you did there RD, you omitted the Aa-Haas. I reckon you were embarassed because of the Alan Partridge association.

Get over that, it's not the main thing.


'Breaking up is never easy, I know but I have to go, Knowing me, knowing you, Its the best I can do'


That's the part to look at. Solipsistic? Probably. What do we know of the person we're not informed about?

Was it really the best the singer could do?

Manipulate us with the word 'Knowing'.

And as for your best, well who can say...

Dance With My Father Again - Luther Vandross - or should I say van DROSS!


The Greatest Love of All - Whitney Houston. I remember in my under age drinking years at the Brockwell Park Tavern in Herne Hill, (now the Florence), there was a karaoke night every Wednesday where the same 6 regulars sang the same 6 songs week after week and there was one particularly joyless and competitive woman who always belted this out like a cat in a washing machine....'no matter what they take from me, the can't take awaaay my dignitttty'....they just did love.


A Cool Rider - Grease 2 (I know it's not strictly a pop song but girls leaping about to it and shrieking and 'doing the moves' makes me come over all queasy...I know this makes me a mean cow.


Don't Stop Me Now - Queen - I may not hate this sooo intensely if it didn't remind me of seeing a bunch of sloshed over-excited sloanes run amuck while roaring along to it in a pub following England Rugby world cup final.


Wind Beneath My Wings - Bette Midler - hate it hate it hate it....*instant allergic reaction starts scratching*


Love Me Do - The `Beatles - a controversial choice I know but if we had never heard it before and were played it now I maintain that if we were told it was a Westlife release we wouldn't bat an eyelid. *waits for catapults to be loaded and aimed!*


Wherever I Lay My Hat - Paul young version. *retches*


Things Can Only Get Better - D:REAM (if they are talking about their output then technically they're right.)


Don't cha - Pussycat Dolls (Don't cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me?') OBNOXIOUS. Reminds me of the soulless, glassy eyed women you see in Weston Super Mare wearing slogan tee-shirts that say things like 'Your boyfriend wants to be with ME'

(no offense to WSM, my grandparents live there and I spent every childhood summer trotting up and down the sea front on the lovely lil donkeys)

Amen to many of them sailor and excellent vitriol to explain your choices - "Things can only get better" was absolutely awful even before grinning Mandleson & co wobbled along to it self-consciously at the birth of a new Britain (er....not)...anything Mandleson likes I'm going to hate

Hona my old friend Agado has Muzak and wordz in it therefore it is a song and I've heard it and it's a complete load of tosh erilivant of what it's purpose was.

I like Ultravox ... vienna

didnt like Yazoo at at , I think I was was dreaming naughty dreams about the bananarama girls at the time


and too many to continue typing cause i was at work and not suppossed to be typing away wilst punters die of thirst.

Oh God, how could I have forgotten to list I Will Survive? it's beyond dire...


slightly off topic I know but how about songs with lyrics that make you shake your head with disbelief every time you hear them...I still remember having to rewind my friend's cassette to check that I HAD heard Wayne right on his '94 classic.



G-Spot - Wayne Marshall


baby look into my eyes when we're dancing in the club

i run my hands down your thigh, baby that is not enough,

if you think im wanna take you home after the first night,

with all the things that's associated, damn right!


(chorus)

cuz tonight i wanna hear you say 'ooh aah' when i hit your g spot baby,

i wanna hear you moan and groan with delight,(oh yeah)

let me hear you say'ooh,aah' when i hit your g spot baby,

i wanna hear you moan and groan tonight(oh yeah)


for ecstacy , we dont have to go to far, where ever she is my baby,

im sure that we can find her in the dark, just hold back, relax babe,

get ready for humping, and if exstacy is waiting, baby im comin, comin


I don't know which would be worse if you were about to 'get to know someone better' for the first time, them starkly instructing you to 'get ready for humping' or the chillingly clinical and brilliantly seedy promise that if you come back to there's you'll get 'all the things thats associated'.

Lyrically Wayne manages both. legendary.

HB what boozer in Camberwell? Sexual orientation is no excuse for liking "I Will Survive"!


"......at just about half past ten

For the first time in history, it's gonna start raining men"


Now there's a real song......


My other most hated song is "Wuthering Heights". And it was number one when I was born.

oh no' date=' and now we are onto the dreaded Kate Bush (more anti nausea tablets with the white wine, please vicar)


I know all you men are going to [b']rush[/b] to her defence, but please, have you every heard her interviewed???

I mean the singing is bad enough, if you must call it that, but the wimpy, little girlie voice is enough to make one despair... enough to give women a very bad name...

    • Yes, because of course there were no violent robberies in the olden days. Pretty much no crime happened at all I believe through the entire Victorian era.
    • Hi all, Im a Southwark council leaseholder and live downstairs in a ground floor flat, there is one flat above me, it's a house with individual front doors leading from the street into the shared pathway. My neighbour told me he has had a ring doorbell installed, no discussion as to how I would feel being on camera everytime I go in and out or in my front garden. I was told it's only for deliveries and doesn't record and only activates when pressed, however I don't know this and I feel really uncomfortable everytime I'm out in garden or on doorstep talking to people. Everytime I walk in/out, it lights up and in the eve it has a  infra red  light. Now I've read up that as he said its only for deliveries, he could set it so it only activates when pressed, however it activates with its motion sensor. Had he said to me about getting it installed, I could have had the opportunity to ask about it recording etc but nothing except it's being installed and when I arrived home it was there. I don't like being horrible to people however I feel I have not been considered in his decision and I feel very uncomfortable as, some times I have to stand on doorstep to get signal for my mobile and I really don't like the idea of being watched and listened to. Has anyone got any advice as I'm beginning to get angry as I've asked about it once and was told it only activates when pressed. I believe this is not true. I know southwark council say you need to ask permission to make sure the neighbours are OK with it, I don't really want to go down that road but I don't know how to approach the subject again. They also put a shed approx 3 foot from my back room window, these places are built so my window faces their rear garden and there upstairs window  faces mine. They said it's there temporarily, that was over a year ago and it does affect the light, plus I'm hoping to sell up soon and the view from window is mainly a dark brown shed. When I've mentioned this, I was told they have no where else to put it, whereas originally they said its only temporary, Also the floorboards above are bare and I get woke early morning and at night, the thudding is so bad my light shakes and window rattles, so I mentioned this and asked if they have rugs, I was told when they get the boards re sanded they will get rugs, I should have asked if they could get rugs and just take them up when boards being done, which I would have done had it been me living above someone, their attitude was I can just put up with it until they are ready. so they had the floor boards done, and the workmen was hammering screws, yes screws, in the floorboards, I spoke to workmen to ask how much longer and they said yes, are using screws to make less noise! I could hear the cordless screwdriver, not an issue but for every screw there were at least 8 whacks, the owners had gone out to avoid the noise  so I  spoke to workmen as the noise was unbearable, the sanding, not an issue at all, people need to get things done to their home and I'm fine that on occasions there will be temporary noise. now I have a nice crack on my bedroom ceiling, I mentioned this to owner but no response, he said there were alot of loose floorboards and it will be much better now, not so noisy, as though I don't know the difference between squeaking floor boards and thudding, and nothing was mentioned re the crack or that they now have rugs, which if it were me, I'd be trying to resolve the issue so we can get on with feeling happy in our homes. so I'm feeling it's a total lack of consideration. these places are old and Edwardian and I've lived here over 40 years, had 4 different neighbours and it's only now the noise of thudding is really bad and the people before had floorboards but nothing like this. As you can probably tell I'm really wound up and I don't want to end up exploding at them, I've always got on with neighbours and always said if there's a problem with my dog, pls let me know, always tell me, however I feel it's got to the point where I say something and I'm fobbed off. I know I should tell them but I'm angry, perhaps I should write them a letter. Any suggestions greatly appreciated and thank you for reading my rant. 
    • Sadly, the price we now all pay for becoming a soft apologetic society.
    • Exactly the same thing happened to me a few years back; they were after my Brompton. Luckily there were only 3 of them so I managed to get away and got a woman to call the police, then they backed off, but not after having hit me in the back of the head first. Police said next time just give them what they want, but I sure as hell wasn't just going to hand over my bike to them!
