Awful Songs

[pomba gira]

Yes I am stealing some of these from Blender but they still suck...

JOHN MAYER

"Your Body is a Wonderland"

...please tell me you made that one up...

Mr. C the Slide Man

"Cha Cha Slide"

I was forced to listen to this every Friday morning for three years when I taught at Sankofa. It was played for the kids to dance to during our morning assembly. Got played a fair amount during various events at Shabazz, too. AND at Lifestyle parties, where it instantly kills any amorous feelings I may be experiencing.

Outhere Brothers

"Boom, Boom, Boom (Let's Go Back to my Room)"

That was actually played outside of gay bars?

USA for Africa

"We Are the World"

The video is actually quite entertaining- Battle of the Giant Egos!

chacarron Macarron, horrible song but it gets stuck in my head ALL THE TIME.

Oh my god! I don't think I've ever laughed so hard at a song in my life! Even Alvin and the Chipmunks have more musical talent than that!

And better fashion sense. That red & blue sportcoat is just bizarre. I think I once won a stuffed animal at Bob-Lo made of that same material.

Gods help me, I knew I shouldn'tve watched it again.. now I'm gonna have "gibba yuh yuh yuh yuh gibba guh" running through my head all night...

[candyman]

Why would I make up a song called "Your body is a wonderland"? I would just give it the title "I like playing with your boobs" and get straight to the point!

[the eternal]

The post got completely messed up, so I'll keep it brief.

Forget the haters! I love Chacarron Macarron. Furthermore, all of you should be ashamed of yourselves for making fun of the mentally and vocally disabled.

Pomba-- you don't know John Mayer?

He's a bit of a guitar prodigy that gave it up to make songs to get him laid.

Kinda like Clapton in the 70s , but without any of the talent or credibility

Here it is

AS FOR ME-- best way to get me to clear a room--put on some Maroon 5

Final note to self--

Next time I plan a swingers party, Cha cha slide. Yeah that'll get em going.

Bringing bad back, of all the things to do this is by far one of the good ones so tell me what I've been missing! Bad that is!

[Black Jack (1)]

Vanilla Ice - Ice Ice Baby

It is so bad embedding is disabled so click the title!!!

I remember dancing to this then being laughed at in the process for not knowing it sucked. Nevertheless if you forgot then by all means the worst lyrics will have you regurgitating in no time.

Yo VIP let's kick it

Ice ice baby (x2)

All right stop collaborate and listen

Ice is back with my brand new invention

Something grabs a hold of me tightly

Flow like a harpoon daily and nightly

Will it ever stop yo I don't know

Turn off the lights and I'll glow

To the extreme I rock a mic like a vandal

Light up a stage and wax a chump like a candle

Dance go rush to the speaker that booms

I'm killing your brain like a poisonous mushroom

Deadly when I play a dope melody

Anything less than the best is a felony

Love it or leave it you better gain weight

You better hit bull's eye the kid don't play

If there was a problem yo I'll solve it

Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it

CHORUS

Ice ice baby vanillla (x4)

Now that the party is jumping

With the bass kicked in and the vegas are pumpin'

Quick to the point to the point no faking

I'm cooking MC's like a pound of bacon

Burning them if you ain't quick and nimble

I go crazy when I hear a cymbal

And a hi-hat with a souped up tempo

I'm on a roll and it's time to go solo

Rollin' in my 5.0

With my rag-top down so my hair can blow

The girlies on standby waving just to say hi

Did you stop no I just drove by

Kept on pursuing to the next stop

I busted a left and I'm heading to the next block

The block was dead

Yo so I continued to A1A Beachfront Avenue

Girls were hot wearing less than bikinis

Rockman lovers driving Lamborghinis

Jealous 'cause I'm out getting mine

Shay with a guage and Vanilla with a nine

Reading for the chumps on the wall

The chumps acting ill because they're so full of eight balls

Gunshots rang out like a bell

I grabbed my nine all I heard were shells

Falling on the concrete real fast

Jumped in my car slammed on the gas

Bumpet to bumper the avenue's packed

I'm trying to get away before the jackers jack

Police on the scene you know what I mean

They passed me up confronted all the dope fiends

If there was a problem yo I'll solve it

Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it

REPEAT CHORUS

Take heed 'cause I'm a lyrical poet

Miami's on the scene just in case you didn't know it

My town that created all the bass sound

Enough to shake and kick holes in the ground

'Cause my style's like a chemical spill

Feasible rhymes that you can vision and feel

Conducted and formed

This is a hell of a concept

We make it hype and you want to step with this

Shay plays on the fade slice like a ninja

Cut like a razor blade so fast other DJs say damn

If my rhyme was a drug I'd sell it by the gram

Keep my composure when it's time to get loose

Magnetized by the mic while I kick my juice

If there was a problem yo I'll solve it

Check out the hook while Shay revolves it

Ice ice baby vanilla

Ice ice baby (oh-oh) vanilla

Ice ice baby vanilla

Ice ice baby vanilla ice

Yo man let's get out of here

Word to your mother

Ice ice baby too cold

Ice ice baby too cold too cold (x2)

Ice ice baby

AND

After listening to everyone who THINKS they can sing, walk around singing this at shool, I got really, REALLY sick of it - felt kinda like stabbing myself in the eardrums with a screwdriver, heh.

Ouch my stomach is turning from that one!

[KatRN05]

This one is awful but I love it anyways..

[pomba gira]

I never actually listened to the lyrics of "Ice Ice Baby"... just as well, they're bad enough as printed words... "Flow like a harpoon"? "Faking/bacon"? "Bikinis/Lamborghinis"? "The chumps acting ill because they're so full of eight balls"? This is all just staggeringly bad.

I remember seeing him interviewed back when his street-ness was being challenged... I swear to god, he stood there and said "I am too from the streets!", whining like a 7-year old. I think that was the funniest thing I've ever seen on MTV.

This one is awful but I love it anyways..

For once I am grateful for my mother's slow-ass, memory-deficient computer... spared me from having to watch that whole putrid mess.

[ZombieWalkDetroit]

((I've got nothing, as I'm afraid if I dig into my 'awful songs' psyche, i'll never break free, but....)) I just wanted to say thanks for the (many) laughs. MAN some of those are awful... like.. you're embarrassed FOR the artists...

*whew!*

[StormKnight (1)]

Ice, Ice Baby....what a raping of a Queen song.

This one is awful but I love it anyways..

*flashes back to when this was played at Orpheus in Baltimore*

[KatRN05]

Remember back in the 80s when Eddie Murphy tried to be a pop star. He recorded a song with Rick James called "Party all the time"....hilarious but awful.

Thanks. I almost had that burnt out of my memory. Almost

[KatRN05]

Thanks. I almost had that burnt out of my memory. Almost

(insert evil laugh here) Well, no one else mentioned it....so I had to.

[Homicidalheathen]

[KatRN05]

Ok that was worse than Eddie Murphy's Party all the time.

Now...many have said: That is an awful song..

...but, I LOVE IT!

I dig it.

AS FOR ME-- best way to get me to clear a room--put on some Maroon 5

Awww I actually kinda love Maroon 5.

Ice, Ice Baby....what a raping of a Queen song.

More importantly, a raping of a Bowie song.

[KatRN05]

here's one I heard on the radio today.

[candyman]

You put the Offspring in the Awful Songs thread? WHAT?!?! WHY?!?!

[KatRN05]

Come on, that song is terrible.

[candyman]

In what way? Vocals, lyrics, guitars, drums, bass...or all of them at once? Just curious...I have taken way too many music classes in college to let this go without an answere...I am not fighting I am just gently poking with a stick.

I've never really cared for that song.
