50 worst songs... I don't know...

I know I am somewhat late on this particular game, but just call me a slow poke. A few weeks ago "Blender Magazine" http://www.blender.com/articles/article_786.html came out with a list of its 50 worst songs of all time. After looking at the list I don't really know if it is really a list of the 50 worst songs of all time (I can think of alot worse ones). And frankly there are alot of songs on that list I DO LIKE!

Especially the so-called number one worst song on that list "We Build This City" by Starship. I love this song. This seriously is the first mainstream rock/pop song I remember listening to (on the car radio) and liking, and remember the lyrics to (well the chorus - I was like 5) and singing along to. Okay call it sentimental bias, but I really do like that song!

Okay with the list, being the geek that I am, I have bolded all the songs I really do like on it, so without further ado:

1. We Built This City ... Starship
2. Achy Breaky Heart ... Billy Ray Cyrus I loved this at one point.
3. Everybody Have Fun Tonight ... Wang Chung
4. Rollin' ... Limp Bizkit
5. Ice Ice Baby ... Vanilla Ice
6. The Heart of Rock & Roll ... Huey Lewis and the News
7. Don't Worry, Be Happy ... Bobby McFerrin
8. Party All the Time ... Eddie Murphy
9. American Life ... Madonna
10. Ebony and Ivory ... Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder
11. Invisible ... Clay Aiken
12. Kokomo ... The Beach Boys (I loved the Muppets version better actually.)
13. Illegal Alien ... Genesis
14. From a Distance ... Bette Midler
15. I'll Be There for You ... The Rembrandts
16. What's Up? ... 4 Non Blondes
17. Pumps and a Bump ... Hammer
18. You're the Inspiration ... Chicago
19. Broken Wings ... Mr. Mister
20. Dancing on the Ceiling ... Lionel Richie
21. Two Princes ... Spin Doctors
22. Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue (The Angry American) ... Toby Keith
23. Sunglasses at Night ... Corey Hart
24. Superman ... Five for Fighting

34. Longer ... Dan Fogelberg
35. Shiny Happy People ... R.E.M.
36. Make Em Say Uhh! ... Master P
37. Rico Suave ... Gerardo

40. I Wanna Sex You Up ... Color Me Badd
41. We Didn't Start the Fire ...Billy Joel
42. The Sounds of Silence ... Simon & Garfunkel (Mrs. Robinson, are you trying to seduce me?)
43. Follow Me ... Uncle Kracker
44. I'll Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That) ... Meat Loaf
45. Mesmerize ... Ja Rule featuring Ashanti
46. Hangin' Tough ... New Kids on the Block
47. The Only Thing That Looks Good on Me Is You ... Bryan Adams
48. Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da ... The Beatles
49. I'm Too Sexy ... Right Said Fred
50. My Heart Will Go On ... Celine Dion

Crikey, I didn't realise that there where so many songs on that list I actually do like, though I think the list is truly flawed without such "classics" on it as "Agadoo" By Black Lace, "Star Trakking" By Dr. Demento (well actually any Dr. Demento song can be on that list) and that horrid Don Johnson song from his "Miami Vice" days just to name a few.

Of course, being a real geek I must list what songs I physically own on CE, weather it be an album, single or complimation track.

1. We Built This City ... Starship
11. Invisible ... Clay Aiken
12. Kokomo ... The Beach Boys
14. From a Distance ... Bette Midler
15. I'll Be There for You ... The Rembrandts
16. What's Up? ... 4 Non Blondes
21. Two Princes ... Spin Doctors
24. Superman ... Five for Fighting
25. I'll Be Missing You ... Puff Daddy featuring Faith Evans and 112
29. Breakfast at Tiffany's ... Deep Blue Something
30. Greatest Love of All ... Whitney Houston
33. Barbie Girl ... Aqua
44. I'll Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That) ... Meat Loaf
47. The Only Thing That Looks Good on Me Is You ... Bryan Adams
48. Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da ... The Beatles
50. My Heart Will Go On ... Celine Dion

Okay that wasn't as bad as I thought, but that is mainly cause I am not a huge buyer of CDs these days. About 4-5 years ago, I use to spend all my spare money on new CDs, but these days I am really not into CDs these much, and if I do on that rare occassion buy them, it will be by old favorite artists.
