Worst Songs Ever
Thanks to MT.Net reader #7 Mike B., I can now present you with the fifty worst songs ever. Topping the list is that 80’s standard “We Built This City” By Jefferson Starship.
Now, I have a confession to make. I actually had that stupid song in my head when I was on the way to work earlier this week. I had to hear it again. Once I heard it, my strange craving for it disappeared again.
I try not to listen too hard when I do hear it, because the lyrics are truly, truly bad. But the line “Marconi plays the mamba” sticks in my head, in spite of everything.
Sometimes bad songs say so much, to paraphrase Elton John (who has written his share of clunkers, too).
