Hands down for me is "Feelings" by Morris Albert
it seems, at the time, many people would disagree with you.....
Of course, Billy Ray Cyrus first broke out on the national scale in 1992 with his debut single "Achy Breaky Heart." Thanks to a supremely catchy chorus and a video that made line dancing a nationwide phenomenon, "Heart" charged all the way to No. 4 on the Hot 100 -- an exceedingly rare country crossover hit for the early '90s,
This thread reminds me of Beavis and Butt-Head. They would watch an awful music video and get a wide-eyed, horrified look. Here is one video that drew that reaction from them. I still remember it from Beavis and Butt-Head because it's so awful.

I never listened to this before. Now I have and yes, you do win. Pure garbage
Can I like this a few more times DAMN kidThis thread reminds me of Beavis and Butt-Head. They would watch an awful music video and get a wide-eyed, horrified look. Here is one video that drew that reaction from them. I still remember it from Beavis and Butt-Head because it's so awful.
I preface this by saying this song was before my time, and I am aware it's widely considered one of the greatest songs of all time, but "Hey Jude" annoys the hell out of me because it just....doesn't....end. First half of the song is great, but the na-na-na-na coda goes on for 4 minutes - longer than the lyrical portion at the start of the song. I've nothing against long songs, but it's the same damned phrase over and over that goes nowhere.
"What's Up" by Four Non Blondes (horrible vocals)
Someone earlier mentioned "Knock Three Times" by Tony Orlando & Dawn. My college roommate at PSU had a band that had a record deal with Dave Appel, who played guitar on records by Chubby Checker, The Orlons, The Dovells and Bobby Rydell, and also produced The Tokens. We went to New York over December break in 1969 or '70 to listen to some demos. One of them was "Knock Three Times," sung on the demo by two women (not the same ones who later became "Dawn.") My roommate and my reactions were identical: "Yech!"
I always kidded him that he could have spent his life wearing platform shoes and performing in Branson, Mo.

No clue who it is written or sung by, but that annoying cookie cutter pop song from not long ago with no semblance of a melody or any creativity "Call Me Maybe"...
The fact that it was apparently actually popular enough to be played incessantly enhanced the degree of annoyance.
Rant concluded

When I was at PSU some clown used to blast this across the street. Looking back it was kinda funny but not at the time.
We had the Year 2525 on a 45 when I was growing up. I don't know why but I did listen to it a few times when I was very young.
Tough to comment on a thread that lists Hey Man Nice Shot, Big Yellow Taxi and New York as among the worst ever recorded. Three very good songs. First reactions were already mentioned: that terrible Eddie Murphy song and Seasons in the Sun.
“But if memories are all I sang, I’d rather drive a truck”. This may be the single worst line of lyrics ever written.
I’ll see that lyric and raise you the profound Fergie lyric, “I’m going to miss you like a child misses a blanket”.
"Cats in the Cradle" was by Harry Chapin - had to look it up - not Jim Croce. And yeah, "Cats in the Cradle" sucks.
Thank you. I will edit my post. Gotta give bad credit where bad credit is due.
The cherry poppin daddies have been around since 1989. Zoot suit riot was a huge hit during the swing revival. They played state college last month. I think they are doing way better than you are.
Being a dentist, I have to listen to a lot of contemporary, “ easy listening “ pop music.
Sometimes, you hear a song and you just know you’re going to really grow to hate it, because all of the “ easy listening “ stations have essentially the same playlist and you will have to listen to it 83,000 times.

The Queen of England went to the Ford White House and they performed for her on a nationally televised program.
I remember how the Englishman who was commenting on tv crucified the choice.
