that list is about perfect. only one song doesn't belong to me #19.

GreenDoberman · Jul 5, 2007

Macarena popped in my head immediately after reading the title.

RobFunk · Jul 5, 2007

Who let the dogs out and whoomp there it is will always be tops to me. Bad boys is pretty damn annoying too.

Mason · Jul 5, 2007

I demand a recount. How in the hell could "Mmm Bop" by Hanson not be on that list? Impossible.

RobFunk · Jul 5, 2007

James Blunt and I Would Do Anything For Love. Good picks.

Meat loaf could very well be the most annoying artist of the last century.

James Blunt, you almost get the impression "You're Beautiful" are the only words in the whole damn song.

Isn't song 16 about anal sex????:think2:

Journeyman · Jul 5, 2007

that is a great list of shit songs!

slick69 · Jul 5, 2007

I'm ashamed to say I actually like about half of those songs.

raiderhater · Jul 5, 2007

The list is virtually perfect. I admit Tub Thumper is a dumb song, but I kind of like it anyway...

Iceman · Jul 5, 2007

My most hated song of all time is : Love Shack!!!!!!!!!!!!

honzie · Jul 5, 2007

One of the best music lists I've ever seen. Don't quite get Closing Time bieng on it but still fantastic. Tough to condense into 20, they could add another 20 consisting of just Celine Dion and Cher songs and it would still be fine.

FairWarning · Jul 5, 2007

The Eiffel 65 song is easily the best of that lot. I can expand on the list these "gems"

Love Shack - B-52's
Old Time Rock and Roll - Bob Segar
Don't Stop Belivin' - Journey
Sweet Home Alabama - Lynyrd Skynyrd
Brick House - Commodores
YMCA - Village People
Living on a Prayer - Bon Jovi
Sweet Caroline - Neil Diamond
Hard to Handle - Black Crowes
You Shook Me All Night Long - AC/DC

Fire away at me.

A friend of mine is the saxophonist in the video. He use to get $75 every time it was played. :lol:

As you probably know, this version is a cover of an old Otis Redding song. I recently saw the movie "Myra Breckinridge" on cable with Raquel Welch and a somewhat elderly Mae West. Mae West actually performs this number in the movie.

oh cmon man :discuss:

I think most of the songs you just heard so many times, because they were played to death....I'm surprised you didn't have JUMP on your list.

Mason · Jul 5, 2007

"I was made for loving you baby". Kiss went f'ing disco, unbelievable career move and an unbearable song.

My gosh, how could I forget that song. That should be on there too. Despise that song.

Adding Walk this Way by Aerosmith and Run DMC. I will only listen to those songs if I am getting paid to do so.

Iceman · Jul 5, 2007

I always hated being at a bar and seeing some 1980's burnout chick go crazy when AC/DC came on singing "You shook me all nite long"

Moments like that made me learned to appreciate all the times someone played Blues traveler or Black Sabbath.
