    How dare they, Yngwie does not suck. Air Supply does though.

    Now I got "We built this city" stuck in my head. Thanks.

    Gotta agree with We Built This City as the worst song of all time.

    I might say that "Sweet Zoe Jane" might the the worst new song out there by Stained. I get emabarrassed listening to it.

    Milli Vanilli might be the worst band of all time.

    I can't argue with any of it. Is there not enough room or does Whitney Houston have her own special Hall of Shame?? Maybe it's under Bobby's name?

    Barbra Steisand didn't even make the list, it's rigged.

    I really have to disagree with the inclusion of Blind Melon, especially when Kriss Kross isn't there.

    That list is bull-hooey. I own a copy of 8 of those 10 songs and stand by the purchase of each and every one.

    Eddie Murphy is a musical genius.
    You know, there's like a butt-load of gangs at this school. This one gang kept wanting me to join because I'm pretty good with a bowstaff.

    Those lists were obviously created to cause some arguments thereby improving readership. Half the songs and bands obviously belong there and half obviously don't. It's not that hard to see.

    What a coincidence. Blender just made the number 1 spot on my list of "Bullshit magazines that create arbitrary and irrelevant lists to sell magazines because the staff is a bunch of overweight, undertalented j-school dropouts who think they can score with the models displayed in the magazine despite living with their parents at the age of 34 and riding the bus for the last 10 years"

    Note that Maxim and FHM came in with special honors.
    A lot of people earn their turns. Some just get bigger checks.

    How about "Do You Believe" by Cher. Gotta be one of the worst ever.

    Not sure why ELP is the second worst band ever. They aren't great, but certainly not THAT band.

    Also I think putting The Doors in the list is horseshit. OK, some of Morrison's stuff can be a little over the top, but they also have some of the greatest rock songs in history.
