Ranking the Worst... (Part 2)
The next 10 on this list of bad are more painful than a William Hung tune.
40. I Wanna Sex You Up-Color Me Badd ... 1991
Once again, Blender is lazy. Because the follow up singles by CMB --
"I Adore Mi Amor" and
"All 4 Love" -- were twice as bad as this one. However, this song is weird because there are two versions. The halfway okay version and the MTV version which completely sucks.
39. She Bangs-Ricky Martin ... 2000
Obviously this needs no comment.
38. Cotton Eyed Joe-Rednex ... 1995
Interesting song, popular at college "country" clubs and regular nightclubs. Either way it's not a bad song at all, pretty fun and happy for the whole family.
37. Rico Suave-Gerardo ... 1991
Now here's the question. Was Gerardo ahead of his time? He missed the "Latin Invasion" by at least seven years and there was tons of crap from that fad (including two J-Lo albums). Is this song bad? No doubt, it's atrocious and the video is even worst if that's possible. But -- and I know I'm not alone here -- Rico Suave has a special place in my heart. Sometimes a song is so bad, it's just funny.
36. Make Em Say Uhh!-Master P featuring Silkk, Fiend, Mia-X and Mystikal ... 1998
This song made 'em say "PLEASE NO MORE!!!"
35. Shiny Happy People-R.E.M. ... 1991
I'm in the minority of people who think REM is quite overrated and I can point to this song as why...Happy...Happy? In 1991 during the post-Gulf War depression?
34. Longer-Dan Fogelberg ... 1979
Did a quick download and quickly deleted it a minute into the song.
33. Barbie Girl-Aqua ... 1997
Any song that coins the phrase "C'mon Barbie Let's Go Party" needs to be destroyed.
32. Will 2K-Will Smith ... 1999
This song has redeemable qualities for several reasons. One it was the third best 2K tune (Behind 1999 and Millenium) plus the sampling of "Rock the Casbah" is pretty nifty too. They could've chose the song for the second Men in Black movie instead.
31. Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm-Crash Test Dummies ... 1994
Well besides the non-chorus, the terrible lyrics, the lead singer's horrible force and the ridiculous video (What was the school play? Death of a Salesman?) this is a perfectly good song.
