What's your worst?

Mine has to be "Grandma we love you" By St Winifreds Girls choir. It was a seriously terrible song, but I think my hatred was sealed by the fact that I sang in a choir with many of them and they were sooooo stuck up and prissy ....lol

Were there any that made you laugh?

Nnnineteen not out (as mentioned in another thread and promptimg this post)
The Chicken Song
Equally bad was "Grandad" by the guy from Dads Army(sorry cant remember his name. ) "Sugar" by the Archies is one of the most annoying songs ever, as is Agadoo.

I liked some of Ray Stevens stuff, especially The Streak roll
Clive Dunn did "Grandad".

Was it Rory Bremner that did that "Nineteen Not Out"?
What was that one about walking a dinosaur?

Oh... and also "Come On Eileen"....that one drives me round the bend.
Hey I love Come on Eileen, they dressed sooo cool!
I like "Come on Eileen" too!
Walk the dinosaur.........by "Was, not Was"

Also did Shake your Head with Kim Basinger.

Debs x )
My hubby dressed like that when I met him.
Talk about looking like you come from the sticks(which he didn't)
He never wore shoes unless he was forced to, like at work and restaurants.

Naturally I soon cured him of that.
Though I threw those overalls out half a dozen times and he would sneak them back. evil
This is a great site

Great site Hartley, reminded me how much I also disliked Terry Jacks Seasons in the Sun!!
Anyone remember 'Its horrible being in love when your 8 and a half, got your picture on me wall, got your name upon me scarf....'.

Then there was 'I wish I could fly way up to the sky...' Keith Harris and Orville.

Wasn't there a crakies crap one too called 'Fandabidocious' or something
Ken Dodd's "Eight By Ten" always got me running screaming from the room.
Gimme dat ding by The Pipkins


Gimme dat, gimme dat, gimme dat ding, oh gimme dat gimme dat ding.................................................................oh God it was terrible, now I have it in my head -?
Anybody remember Mike Sarne's 'Come Outside'?

The girl in the background was 15-year-old Wendy Richard! 1962. She got fifteen quid for that record!
