The absolute worst of the worst earworm thread.

[Joe Fields]

My classic rock radio station was sold the other day and switched formats. They still "claim" to be all classic rock. But sandwiched between CCR's Suzy Q and Dylan's Tangled Up in Blue was JENNY JENNY (867-5309)

AND I CAN'T GET THAT FUCKING SONG OUT OF MY BRAIN!!!!

What's your worst of the worst earworm?

[theredpen]

1. The themesong from "The Greatest American Hero"

Once it's in, it ain't comin' out until you drink yourself into a stupor.

[Joe Fields]

2. That song is why I was in a drunken stupor through the early '80's

[Manifestor_of_Light]

91. Believe it or not, I'm walkin' on air.....

They used that in "Fahrenheit 9/11" when showing Shrubbie Poo.

[FloridaJudy]

3. The Cranberries' "Linger"

It's actually a pretty decent song, but every time I hear ir, it gets stuck in my head for days.

Click on this at your peril: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BPLXJAWUnwI

[Joe Fields]

4. If I click on it, maybe I can get Jenny Jenny out of my head.

[BlueIris]

15. What is it about Cranberries' songs?

They all have the potential to become earworms.

[Xipe Totec]

5. Crosby Stills & Nash - Teach Your Children

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6pphVs8bF0

[Joe Fields]

6. I love CSN, but really, that was an embarrassment.

[Xipe Totec]

7. Check the OP title...

:P

[Initech]

8. Rick Astley

[Joe Fields]

9. I must be culturally deprived. Who is Rick Astley?

[theredpen]

10. I don't know if "deprived" is the right word for not having been subjected to Rick Astley

http://youtube.com/watch?v=B62p-dEfUZM

[Joe Fields]

11. the dude is stuck in an early '80's power pop time warp.

:rofl:

It still didn't get Jenny Jenny out of my head...Damn!

[theredpen]

16. You may not thank me for this... but it might dislodge "867-5309"

http://youtube.com/watch?v=e9Q3orQhEcA

[Initech]

24. Here ya go:

[Left Brain]

12. It's a small world after all

It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
Its's a small, small world...

[Joe Fields]

18. I had that song rattling around in my head last week.

[Left Brain]

13. This is the song that never ends

It just goes on and on my friends
Some people
Started singing it not knowing what it was
And now they can't stop singing it forever more because
This is the song that never ends
It just goes on and on my friends
Some people
Started singing it not knowing what it was
And now they can't stop singing it forever more because
This is the song that never ends
It just goes on and on my friends
Some people
Started singing it not knowing what it was
And now they can't stop singing it forever more because
This is the song that never ends
It just goes on and on my friends
Some people
Started singing it not knowing what it was
And now they can't stop singing it forever more because
This is the song that never ends
It just goes on and on my friends
Some people
Started singing it not knowing what it was
And now they can't stop singing it forever more because
This is the song that never ends
It just goes on and on my friends
Some people
Started singing it not knowing what it was
And now they can't stop singing it forever more because
This is the song that never ends...

:rofl: oh, this joke never gets old...

[zabet]

56. Bwahahaha!!!

:spank:

:rofl:

[madeline_con]

66. That;s funny.

I dated a guy who said he'd gone to see the Four Seasons in Miami years ago. he started some shit, and was being escorted out of th club by the friendly security staff to that as a background theme. :rofl:

[Amerigo Vespucci]

20. "Papa Don't Fucking Preach"

ANYTHING by Madonna, actually, but THAT song takes the gold medal for "Song Most Likely Pulled Straight From Madonna's ASS."

:rant:

[Joe Fields]

26. Thankfully, I have not been subjected to Madonna.

I know not of what you speak.

[madeline_con]

67. How did you EVER manage that?! n/t

[Joe Fields]

82. I have created my own little time warp, and Madonna was not included.

[Fire Walk With Me]

30. I, however, am a big fan of the Bollywood version of that track.

Papadom Preach. Although I once was Nan the wiser, I'll Chutney up now.

[bertha katzenengel]

21. it's a world of laughter a world of tears it's a world of hopes and a

world of cheer there's so much that we share that it's time we're aware it's a small world after all it's a small world after all it's a small world after all it's a small world after all it's a small small world

29. Um, can you waterboard me now, and get it over with?

:rofl:

[bertha katzenengel]

31. You asked!

:rofl:

[auburngrad82]

22. Anything by Cher

I refer to her as "She Who Must Not Be Named" so I can make sure nothing gets stuck in my head.

Oh damn. Too late...

[Joe Fields]

28. Half Breed...

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[CreekDog]

36. Half Breed is not complete without viewing the video

Good costumes though...from Big Chief Bob Mackey

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6E98ZRaU1s

[Joe Fields]

38. Yeah, you gotta love her costumes...

:toast:

[CreekDog]

39. What costume?

:P

[Joe Fields]

44. Yeah, and you know the less she wore, the more Bob Mackie charged.

[CreekDog]

45. lol i'm sure

i just crack up over the idea that he designed her "indian" costume. oh, i don't know if he did, but i'll bet he did.

[Sparkly]

23. The theme song from "Green Acres."

Got that one stuck for days one time.

[Joe Fields]

27. Strangely, I like that song, and can still sing it, word for word.

Is that pathetic?

:rofl:

[qnr]

33. Hah! I mistakenly stopped by the website of The 1910 Fruitgum Company 2 weeks

ago, and I still have a "1 2 3 Redlight" earworm.

[Joe Fields]

40. Lord, and I thought I was the only one left that remembered that song.

And what's worse, I have it downloaded!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[qnr]

43. Yipes!

:rofl:

[jmm]

35. My Humps, Honky Tonk Badonkadonk, and

the reggae version of "I Will Survive."

Most of my coworkers have pretty diverse craptacular tastes in music.

[Joe Fields]

41. Honky Tonk Badonkadonk? Bwaaaaaaaahahahaha!!!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[jmm]

47. Have you seen the video?

It's a bad country song trying to be a worse rap song.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=epdmJwH-IdU




Trace Adkins was my job's version of Rick Astley for about six months. I heard this a painful amount of times.

[Joe Fields]

49. Hell no, I never even heard of it, until now.

But I must see the youtube.

[madeline_con]

70. Are the hats for real?

Do some people actually find the way those yahoos dress attractive?

A padonkadonk is a big fat ass, not the bubble butts those chicks had.

[BrotherBuzz]

37. Mah Nà Mah Nà is the quintessential earworm

"Mah Nà Mah Nà" was a smash hit pop song in 1968 and 1969, written by Piero Umiliani.

"Mah Nà Mah Nà" debuted as part of Piero Umiliani's soundtrack for the Italian softcore pornography movie "Svezia, Inferno e Paradiso" (Sweden, Heaven and Hell) (1968), a pseudo-documentary film about wild sexual activity and other behavior in Sweden ("Mah Nà Mah Nà" accompanied a scene set in a sauna).

[Joe Fields]

42. Oh, yeah. Unfortunately, I remember it all too well.

What a complete waste of studio time.

[Hand]

92. ...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phpu9oYyRjk

[opiate69]

46. My kids introduced me to this earworm...

Now I know why tigers eat their young.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmtzQCSh6xk
edit: here's the orginal, full version...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sS5SLlW72xI&feature=related

[Joe Fields]

50. I recommend death by stoning...

:rofl:

[BrotherBuzz]

63. My son heard it, started laughing and insisted I post this version:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfEE_nYehZ8

It all makes sense now, almost. :rofl:

[CreekDog]

72. That is wayyy cool

:rofl:

[AwakeAtLast]

84. Sit down, feta cheese!

:rofl: :spray:

That is hilarious!

Ragu sledding was good, too!

:hi:



:rofl:

[CreekDog]

48. Oh, here's a good earworm, by Blur

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjZ0plrFIE4

you know you like it...:rofl:

[Joe Fields]

51. Now that is just downright disturbing...

:hide:

[CreekDog]

52. haha, apparently a new one for you

:yoiks:

Girls who are boys
Who like boys to be girls
Who do boys like they're girls
Who do girls like they're boys
Always should be someone you really love

hahahaha

[opiate69]

65. hehe.. yeah.. I've seen that one..

and dammit, I actually kinda do like the stupid thing!!
"keep a running, from a slutty date.." :rofl:

:banghead: :banghead: :banghead:
edit: supposed to be a reply to post 63. Duh..

[CreekDog]

73. HA! You had me confused for a minute there

considering the post you technically replied to was "Girls and Boys" by Blur which is certainly about sluttiness but doesn't use that word.

How ironic! :shrug:

Nobody post the song "Ironic". Just don't okay?

[CreekDog]

53. Bad Blood by (wait for it) Neil Sedaka and Elton John

this video is a blissful bonus:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8hDRfNzWikA

[Joe Fields]

54. Man, I draw the line at Neil Sedaka!

:rofl:

[CreekDog]

55. but you gotta watch the video

just take a peek.

[Joe Fields]

59. I gotta admit, that was funny.

But damn you to hellllllllll......

:rofl:

[CreekDog]

60. oh it was wortth it

:rofl:

[General Zod]

57. I got one for ya...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FeIF-7fhkE

Most. Annoying. Song. Ever.

[CreekDog]

58. There's a worse video of that song

trust me

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iwld8BZCo_Q

[General Zod]

61. I had forgotten all about that song

That one hurt...

[Joe Fields]

62. That was just one of many reasons I stayed comfortably numb

through the '70's and '80's.

Scary.

[CreekDog]

64. The Bay Area has contributed greatly to music

Here's a famous Bay Area song:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMzoBkaFxh4

[XemaSab]

74. Here's another one, complete with classic, classic video

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ksyA5Jo9cU

:D

[CreekDog]

75. My God...Oh The Humanity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your favorite radio station, your favorite radio station,the city by the bay, the city that never sleeps

:yoiks:

[XemaSab]

76. And the video...

Isn't that like, Tokyo? :shrug:

[CreekDog]

77. I thought the original video was an animated Las Vegas

http://youtube.com/watch?v=uH-UqB7uYiE&feature=related

that's the one I remember.

[CreekDog]

78. and the original video, We Built This City, is mostly animated Las Vegas circa 1985

but in that video, there's also images of Tokyo, New York's WTC and Empire State Bldgs., SF's Bank of America building and some other stuff, Tower of London I think.

It's not a good enough song to pay as much attention to and it's a total waste of Grace Slick. But it brings back memories for me (sniff). At the time I thought it was good.

[CreekDog]

69. Your kids probably like this song...Intergalactic

And if you like "Transformers" you probably like this song.

Oh and skip to 0:39 to hear the "earworm" part.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mk0xmCZQWmk

this song was featured on tonight's Karel show.

[opiate69]

71. here's another one..

a little un-PC, but I think it was supposed to be satirical...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7q1H3VKdp0

[Blarch]

79. Here is a total earworm

a song you have never heard before, but will be singing later today. Miles Hunt singing Room 512

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5HfwlpNhfE

[PeaceNikki]

80. Mahna Mahna. Do doo be-do-do.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KC9FtLQJoGM

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

81. Maybe not the worst, but pretty bad ...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCDcp5xwNFA

:hi:

[Joe Fields]

83. Can you believe that song actually charted?

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

86. Chart? Who cares about charts?

I can't believe that song's been rumbling around in my head for a day.

Yikes!

:rofl:

[Fox Mulder]

85. Oh god, this one is probably the worst:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RVs-KP2h0us

[Blarch]

93. This one we all know and love.
