Terrible Songs You Love (1 Viewer)

[Cjw_55106]

So I was listening to Pandora and CCR comes on "Have you ever sent he rain". I says to myself, I says, this song is great...but if you really listen, the lyrics are horrible.

What song do you like or love that lyrically sucks?

 

[Apes with Guns]

Girlfriend by Avril Lavigne.

 

[McGarnicle]

I have a 70's top 40 Pandora station that plays some horrible stuff by Ambrosia, Player, Bee Gees etc. that I love for some reason. Probably 9 out of 10 songs that play on that station would fit this category.

I like a lot of the stuff from the 70's. I find myself listening to "the bridge" on XM quite a bit these days. Get off my lawn!

 

[Apple Jack]

The Bee Gees wrote and arranged some great songs.

Some specifics that come to mind:

Into the Night - Benny Mardones

I Go Crazy - Paul Davis

I Like Dreamin - Kenny Nolan

I am a sucker for the cheesy 70s male power ballads. Love belting these out as I'm cruising down the highway

 

[LinusMarr]

Shannon by henry cross or gross i think his name is? Lobo, bread, america. Boy i am gaying it up today...

 

[zamboni]

Usually in these threads it's David Geddes's "Run Joey Run".

How do you even know these songs? You wouldn't feel that way if you had to live through them clogging the radio. Power ballads are bad ...these don't even qualify and are somewhere beneath them.

"I like dreaming"?? ...you have to be kidding.

Ok I Like Dreaming was partly schtick. I do like belting out the other two, though. I think my Dad must have had a thing for the power ballads and I learned from being in the car. He had a lot of Barry Manilow and Queen records, too.

I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who thinks it is a great song. I always thought some might find it a little cheezy. Guess I was wrong.

Who says no one likes it? the youtube votes are 113 positive, 4 negative. I used to rock Afroman all the time when I was mowing lawns in the early 00's. Great tunes to mow the lawn while stoned.
