I always say I never listen to anything after 1989.

and never listen to rap with a silent c.

To be fair, this is the 45 I bought when I was seven.

I love that song. Anyone who doesn't can suck me.

Without a doubt the worse album I ever bought. I was in love with Shaq growing up. This album is beyond bad. There is one lyric that goes, "and poop comes out your butt." No joke.

Also, I hate all rap except for Eminem.

I know my sister has my 45 of Rhinestone Cowboy by Glen Campbell

Dec. 31, 1989: The Day the Music Died.

I hate that song because it was so overplayed.

I'll pass on the sucking part.

The early 90's grunge movement put out some great rock, IMO.

Not arguing- how did you come up with that date?

I'm giving you the slowest clap imaginable right now.

Tons of good music in the 90s.

Boom! I live in the 90's.

Well, you came up with it. :) I was just putting your statement into musical reference (American Pie).

Hootie!

I don't remember how I got it, but I have the Jingle Cats Christmas CD. It's a cute concept, but try to listen to it for more than two minutes. I dare you.

In my defense, if I turn on the classic rock music station on my cable, I appear to have more than half the songs on my ipod.

LMAO I had that 45 when I was a kid. Played the shit out of it. Don't judge me.

Rain Man wins yet another thread.

Hating a song because it's overplayed and actually hating a song are different things. You're sick of it... you don't hate it.

That's a fine song although not nearly as good as 20 other Campbell hits.

Nah, actually I hate it. :D

"We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun".

:Lin:

OK well enough. It's pretty pukey. He did write it while he was dying though fwiw.

Yeah, Rhinestone Cowboy was a GREAT song. The movie was cool, as well.

any song by Glen Campbell is good.

LMAO

Terry Jacks is still alive, Dude.

He's still dying. We all are.

It's no "Gentle On My Mind" or "Wichita Lineman."

That's beside the point...

LMAO

I don't want to quibble because Glen was and is an amazing artist but Rhinestone Cowboy was his biggest hit, with more than 2 million singles sold.

IMO, it is certainly his most memorable, although I suppose that can be debated.

I thought he wrote it while John Goodman was dying. :shrug:

Bastard!

:evil:

Yes it was his biggest hit. I just think there are a bunch better. I like it though. Listen to it now and note the production... it's so clear and his vocals soar like few other songs of the time. My opinion at least. It still sounds "fresh" especially considering the era.

No. Scott Pioli.

Yeah, it's hard to beat for all of those reason you've listed.

Southern Nights was also a great #1 hit.

I love 70's music. So much fun, yet so much heart.

I have Galveston and Wichita Lineman on my iPod. Don't have Rhinestone Cowboy. Think I heard that enough when I had the 45.

I don't have the CD (err - cassette) anymore, but I have a digital copy of the 1989 Batman movie soundtrack. All Prince. I still enjoy it from time to time.

Southern Nights was great. Galveston too. By The Time I Get To Phoenix.... listen to that one... awesome. Dreams Of An Everyday Housewife too.

For Dane.... know this one?

Sure! I love that he's playing a Dobro as if it were an acoustic guitar.

LMAO

:D

Well what part wasn't faked? It was the 70's and on tv.

Yeah, absolutely but it's still hysterical.

They should have just sent him out there with a Sitar.

:D

I knew those guys in the 90's.

They used to live in the same apartment building in North Hollywood as a friend of mine that was in the Killer Dwarfs.

No one knew the difference and it was shiney.

I know but it's still ****ing funny, don't you think?

I love that shit! It cracks me up every time I see something like that.

LMAO

I mostly just enjoy the song and ignore the rest. I was a kid watching in those days. I didn't care about stage tricks I just liked seeing my favorite singers performing my favorite songs.

I grew up in a musical family and my Dad always spotted that stuff and pointed it out on TV.

It doesn't diminish the music in any way but it's fun to see on TV, at least for me.

It was especially fun to see guys on Soul Train or Dick Clark or whatever show in which the guitars were unplugged.

:D

TV = no reality. We all know that. Just look good on camera. You don't get album sound from a live feed. It's not a big deal to me.

Alright, we're clearly not on the same page here.

I'm not talking about Saturday Night Live or Don Kirschner's Rock Concert or even Hee Haw (Roy Clark - Wow!).

I'm talking about the blatant disregard for any reality. As a 7, 8, 9, 10 year old kid in the 70's, I always thought it was crazy funny how the producers didn't care that it wasn't even close to realistic.

Kitschy.

They played this song at the funeral of a woman I went to school with who was murdered by her estranged husband. Tearjerker.

Then I think you were looking at it differently than 99.9% of the viewing audience. Good for you. Tv producers don't worry about the less than 1%. If you knew better and recognized the inconsistancys more power to you. They didn't care what you think, they're putting on a show. A show. A.... show. It's not that tough to recognize. Look good on camera.

Hello....?

Enough, Dude. We're not on the same page.

No worries.

My worst would have to be any number of Hair bands from the 80s. Poison, Quiet Riot or Keel, it doesn't matter.

Keel?

Looking through the iTunes I see the wife added an Ace Of Base song back in 03.

Not. Real. Happy. About. That...

Keel "Somebody's Waiting." Loved it. Own the cassette lol.

The Right to Rock. Really sucked. I think his name was Ron Keel and he tried to be a country asrtist later in his career.

Did you see the sign? Did it open up your mind?

I loved Keel for a good 3 months. Enough to buy their pos album.

Those guys have nice hair.

Seriously though, Marc "Ferrari" went on to an extremely successful career in library production music and sold his catalog years ago for a large seven figure sum.

Good dude, too.

I just liked one song... and actually I still like it. Don't judge me.

Fah'goff...

+1

vanilla.... not even going to finish it...

used to own a single of "Popcorn" by HOT BUTTER, not sure if I still have it :D

I've got a few stinkers, one that comes to mind is a single of;

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Tw5FhqKApVo" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Just what is wrong with this album?:mad:

I'd say if this is all you can come up with for the worst album, you're doing pretty damn good.

I got sumthin' to say....
I killed your baby today!
Doesn't matter much to me
As long as he's dead.

"We cut off yuh JOHNSON!!"

Killing me softly is awesome....and I'm a metal head.

My friend at work absolutely hates that song. I play it once in awhile just to screw with him. :evil: I don't really have anything against it. Not my cup of tea, but it does bring back memories of when I was just a little kid.

And my other friend at work hates On The Road Again by Willie Nelson. I can't remember how we came to find out that one. I just know that my mom was always playing country music when I was growing up and I remember that song. So I'll just start singing it and it makes him go nuts. He much prefers the Canned Heat version (same title, not the same song).

No doubt about that. I was a little resistant to it at first (didn't care much for Nirvana and was still a bit stuck in the hair bands era), but I came to love the 90s grunge and alternative stuff.

I love this. It is just plain TERRIBLE..so bad its good.

http://theronneel.com/wordpress/wp-c...LP-300x288.jpg

Like most of that 80s hair band music, it didn't really stand the test of time. I can't even listen to this now.

I think the wife saw the Heineken commercial and decided to buy this song.

OK, I found this. It was inherited from my wife, but I don't know why she has it because she doesn't really like it either:

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...500_AA300_.jpg

Is that Tony Randall?

http://ia.media-imdb.com/images/M/MV...0,214,314_.jpg

ya it is, but what does that song have to do with my post?

I don't really personally own anything I don't like though my wife has some stuff I don't like (Garth Brooks) and I converted some truly awful vinyl albums to MP3 for my folks that I still have because my folks didn't want them back and I haven't gotten around to getting rid of them.

If you asked my kids, they would say Shonen Knife is the worst with the cover of "Iron Man" by The Cardigans giving them their run for the money. I like to play those just to annoy the boys. :evil:

I have some stuff that I don't care for much anymore like Throwing Muses and The Jesus and Mary Chain, so I would have to say those are the worst. I used to like them back in the day, though, so I don't think they are bad.

Heresy!
