Gotta be bottom 5, at least.

That video though. So...much...cheese!
Here is my contribution to the topic.

Wing is a New Zealander who lives (lived?) in the city where I live. She actually believed she was a legit singer! She was famous for about 5 minutes and even appeared on South Park. She even had CD's in the local record store!
I picked this song - but pretty much anything she recorded could be in the category of 'worst song ever'.

Of course, no discussion about the worst songs of all time is complete without bringing up "Friday" by ten Rebecca Black.
Re: Is this the worst song of all time?
Friday is so bad that it's almost cheating to bring it up in these discussions. It's like The Room of music. It's so bad you're just amazed at its badness.Listyguy wrote:Of course, no discussion about the worst songs of all time is complete without bringing up "Friday" by ten Rebecca Black.
Re: Is this the worst song of all time?
Friday is honestly much better than many songs in the same way that The Room is much more watchable than many movies. Both of them are magnetic entertainment to the extent that I'd question even characterizing them as bad.Nick wrote:Friday is so bad that it's almost cheating to bring it up in these discussions.

Bob Dylan's original version is one of my favorite novelty tracks.Listyguy wrote:Of course, no discussion about the worst songs of all time is complete without bringing up "Friday" by ten Rebecca Black.

Of course, me being me, I'm volunteering a Eurovision song. Much as I love Eurovision, even at its stupidest, and this one had noble intentions (promoting peace between Israel and Syria during a time of war, plus a brief gay kiss to show support for the LGBT community), there's no denying that it may very well be the worst song ever submitted to the contest:

Here are a few "so-bad-it's-good" ones to balance it out - I do actually enjoy these. Judge me as you will:

And this one isn't actually bad, just kinda goofy. Try and get it out of your head:

Haha - I couldn't believe this when I first saw it. The video that launched a thousand memes! Best unintentionally funny lyric ever "@#$%*& magnets - how do they work!" Classic!
