I always liked it, never knew there was a video.

They seem to have an amazing way of surviving winter along with the zillions of Canadian geese and ducks, and I always get a smile when I hear their distinctive "splash" by the shore.

And... I loved the band, AMERICA. That said, I admit that was not their finest moment. LOL

This song is also on what i think is a great album!

come immediately to mind, but there's are lots of contenders.....

That song has Lonny Donnegan rapping the immortal and ineffable lyric “if tin whistles are made of tin, what do they make foghorns out of?” “Boom. Boom!”

It was the first dance song at my wedding...

Good Morning Starshine sung by Oliver.

The chorus: "Glibby gloop gloopy, Nibby Nabby Noopy, La La La Lo Lo. Sabba Sibby Sabba, Nooby abba Nabba Le Le Lo Lo. Tooby ooby walla, nooby abba nabba, Early mornin' singin' song."

She was my babysitter growing up (before she was famous obviously) so I may be biased.

It's a silly song but fun happy upbeat and fits the musical/movie. Many song from musicals can sound odd when they become hits out of context.

Billy Joel's "For the Longest Time" is a close second, followed by every song Leo effin' Sayer ever did.

I can see someone not liking it (I love it but to each their own) but being stupid? Just curious

It's hideous, my 2cts.

On the Yeah, yeah, yeah, stuff of the 60s. Like the Beatles song, She Loves You.

...comes to mind.

This perfectly fits "stupid"

By The Serendipity Singers - 1964. Even as a child this song made me cringe.

I hope she came through it okay. She'd have done better to put beans in her ears, they're smaller.

He ended up with hearing loss in that ear.

Poor kiddo.

...a piece pencil lead in one of his ear canals. He denied any knowledge of how it got in there.

About Mrs. Jay's little son, Elbe.
I think Elbe Jay has beans in his ears.

Chew Tobacco, Chew Tobacco, Chew Tobacco, Spit

Please tell me you are kidding.

I think Melanie's song was cute. That's all. I am not smoking dope and putting it on repeat on the record player like I did Pink Floyd.

I am going to send a voodoo curse your way for that! (kidding, just kidding). But OMG that is awful.

200,000 times it is played. At that point, the "wink wink, don't tell" meaning is pretty much lost.

By The Right Brothers.
It’s totally wrong.

Telephone Man

But, I'm a sucker for a good orchestral backing and an actor who surprises us by singing (or speaking, in the case of William Shatner) and as for the other, Donna Summer was the Queen of disco! She was near "perfect!" LOL

Hated it in the 70s and still hate it today.

Along with If I were a carpenter

Horrible. 🤮

Home a horse named Sugar. I would sit in the tire swing and sing her that song.

Now I like the song better.

...high school.

The songs for 1968 and 1970 were Hey Jude and Bridge Over Troubled Water.

What the hell was wrong with peoples' musical taste in 1969?

I’d guess there was some sort of cartoon version where the Archie’s cast were playing it but I don’t know.

Sorry, I can't go with There ain't no doubt, and the worse Where at least I know I'm free... just no. Ever since it came out.

"Im proud to be an american"

Pure bullshit

and want to scream when I hear it!

They started playing that after Taps at final formation when I was in the Army in the early 90’s

The first day we were looking to the NCO’s “What do we do?” Attention? Parade rest? They said stand at ease.
The second day we were ALL like “What IS this crap?” Even the country music guys hated it. They’d never heard of Lee Greenwood. One of the older guys (Louisiana) said he remembered it from the YEARS AGO when it was released and that he and his buddies hated it then.

The third day we were told we could leave since we’d been dismissed. We got looks for walking around while other units were still in formation. Well, at least we got to chow first.

The country station in the Ozarks played it three times a fucking day. For years

And I'm glad you got to chow first. ❤️

Did everyone else develop traumatic amnesia over it?

I'd have been embarrassed to have written it, and even more embarrassed to have sung it.

Pina Colada Song

Beiber's "music" is just trash. Given time and pro tools, a chimpanzee could create Beibers "music"

...have the recipe again? Did that get left out in the rain as well?

But then, lots of things were changing colors and shapes Including cakes in the rain.

Billy Don't Be a Hero, a close second!

The version of Billy Don't be a Hero that became a No. 1 hit in the U.S. was a cover of Paper Lace's original, which was a hit in the UK.

people who brought both of the Paper Lace songs to America, also did a viciously bad version of Paul Simon's Kodachrome on American Bandstand. They even mumbled over the line about "the crap I learned in highschool", apparently touring with Osmond Brothers means you both suck musically, and are prudes as well.

My number two dumbest is: I'm Ambivalent Over You (from the 40s or 50s), but yes, a real title.

Can't forget this one

I hate that song.

😮

Just that song.

Are we picking songs that are stupid or just ones we hate?

😝

Bonnie Tyler is great . Really liked her song in Metropolis movie. But Hero is just a mish-mash of instruments. Like a bad Sax solo.

by the Electric Prunes ....
No kidding, real song, real band ...

You should listen to "Mass in F Minor", their next album.

I don't know who wrote it but I first heard it in 1965. I thought it said Hang On Stupid.

Before he joined Edgar Winter.

The music's okay but the lyrics are not

God, I hate that song.

I’d never realized it but it’s a limerick set to a waltz.
He said it’s one of the worst songs for an instrumental piano bar setting because it’s completely repetitive which most people don’t realize without the lyrics being sung.

Also:

Muskrat Love
Dead Skunk in the Middle of the Road
You're Having my Baby

So many others....ugh.

Silly, but I love it! 💚

😆😆😆😆

Ding Dong the witch is dead?

I have a special loathing of this one… it’s a vile, senseless earworm.

Everything he released became a hit so he just kept putting out crap like that. Hated that song too.

Ooh ee ooh ah ah ting tang walla walla bing bang.

Not posting the video!

….check it out!!!

this, at minimum is a close contender.

A reflexive radio station changer.

any song that has to use "ROTOGRAVURE" to rhyme!
