There was a thread a few weeks back about songs that stick in your head and stay there... For what seems like forever... Invariably they're songs from this thread.So I'll resubmit, for your approval, my choice from that other thread...
Barry Manilow's Copacabana.
God! The man's a musical genius!90, Joe 90.... Great Shakes : Milk Chocolate -- Shaken, not Stirred.Comment

I loathe the music of the Steve Miller Band. God I hate it. I don't even hate it on musical merit, it's almost pathalogical. It actually makes me angry. I sometimes wonder if it is tied to some childhood trauma I have blocked out... that is how much I hate it.
Also I hate Aerosmith's "love in an elevator"... it just sucks. Especially for a band I know can do better.Comment

^I have never heard them. In fairness have never heard anything other than the radio hits ( I have hated those songs since I was a kid). However, I have grown to trust your opinion and "uk psychedelia" is something I am unable to resist when used as a descriptor... I'll give anything a chance once... Research time...Comment

Dammit 'Goat... you are right! I don't know how I can ever tell friends "Hey I heard this song that rules, Dear Mary (or Quicksilver girl) by the steve miller band" and still hold my head up... I reserve the right to hate The Joker, Space Cowboy and Abracadabra until the end of time...Comment

Too Sexy for my Shirt is horrid but was very popular.
The WORST of all time that fits into horrid but a hit on the charts...
Vanilla Ice's one-hit wonder song, I can't remember the bloody name, but that ripoff riff he stole from Queen and David Bowie's Under Pressure classic...and the worst is that Vanilla Ice denies he stole it...that it was totally original.
Is Vanilla Ice still breathing here on earth? I hope not.
P.S. Honorable mention to anything from Milli Vanilli.sigpicComment

She's A Maniac
I LITERALLY would rather die then hear that song.
Phil Collins.
I HATE his guts.
Joel,
I actually don't mind --- but I have to be in the mood.
Guns and Roses..
Axl Rose's voice reminds me of an old lady screaming (he must have went to Robert Plant's voice coach)Comment

Wow! There's that "apples and oranges" thing again. One person's music is another person's noise pollution.
With very few exceptions, I actually love almost everything Phil's ever recorded. Beautiful voice. Beautiful lyrics. Phil's "Take Me Home" and "In the Air Tonight" are probably tied as my all time favorite songs. Billy and Elton are a close second as favorite singers.
Guns N Roses? Ummmm... no. Not for me.I... am an action figure customizerComment
