10 Worst Songs Of The 80s
by newwavepop » Sat Mar 09, 2013 8:39 pm
clearly the 10 worst songs would be songs that didnt even remotely chart. so first it should state the 10 worst top 20 songs. that being said how do you decide that, im not going to put something on the list just because i personally dislike it. there are songs on there i like, and no matter how much a think dont worry be happy or whitney houston suck i find miami sound machine much worse than them.

Does "Lady in Red" suck? Yes, but it wouldn't come anywhere near my worst 10 of the 80s list. Some better candidates not already listed:
Ebony and Ivory
I've Never Been to Me
Hello
Sussudio
But really, "Don't Worry, Be Happy" takes the cake for me. Double demerit points for having Robin Williams mugging for the camera.

Bulls-eye, on Ebony and Ivory without question on my top ten list maybe even number one.
Don't Worry, Be Happy is right up there too.
Although I did kind of like Sussudio as a dance / club type song, but nothing beyond that.

The topic is about the top ten worst songs of the 80's. It would be hard to put this up at the top of an 80's list when it dates back to the 70's. Nor is the topic about remixes. [:)]

The Birdie Song
Hands to Heaven
Every Breath You Take
Shaddap you Face
For America
Pass The Dutchie
There's No One Quite Like Grandma
And since Paul McCartney's been mentioned, The Frog Chorus.

How about the insufferable "General Hos-pital" horrible song about the show?
Edie Brickells-What I am(garbage)
Dont worry be happy is unlistenable
That stupid Suzanne Vega song
there are more that are far worse than most on that list.
"Keepin the '80s alive!"

<br>I quite like 'I'd Rather Jack' despite its naffness.
It would be interesting to see an expanded list though.

Hi-ho Mr Chickens, how goes it?!
I notice Huey Lewis's "If this is it" didn't make the top 10. Maybe because the filmclip (still to this day) has an awesome bikini nipple-slip in it.

Things are going well dear sir thanks for asking. Just discovered Virginia Astley so am currently listening to her.
Yeah, I enjoyed watching that and the redhead in it is a looker, shame about the music.

imho those 2 above are not that bad either..I actually enjoyed Breathe music and their vocals...... and Every Breath You Take I still enjoy hearing.
in more commercial music, Lionel Richie would probably make my list of the worst...imho All Night Long and Dancing on the Ceiling are rather bad..

Ahhh Genesis - of course! - In addition to Illegal Alien, I'd nominate 'I can't Dance'. That song is fully fucked. Sideways.
