Write in vote for Stop Draggin' My Heart Around. 2 of the worst voices ever on one song. And when they "harmonize"??? [xx(][xx(][xx(]

But if I must pick from these, I'll take We Are The World. The only way it could have been worse would be if it was an Xmas song.

Sheesh!!! You are really making this hard! What a fine compendium o' crap you've collected! Difficult to choose which is the worst.

Ugh, I HATED that Escape Club song. Almost as much as I hated the girl I was dating when it came out. I always wondered why she loved it so much [?] She was definnitely not a real Waver chick like some of the ones around here [:p][:)]

Gold by Spandau Ballet is one of my favorite 80's songs.

It's indestructable. Always believe in it.






























[:D][:D]

Oh my God, so many to choose from. Originally I would have gone with Will to Power - that was truly horrible - but Don't Worry Be Happy gets my vote.
I couldn't escape from that song for so many years, and because the video featured heavy mugging from Robin Williams it goes in my short list of most hated

And please Bobby, don't tell me how to feel, I can be pissy if I want to.

Why is Spandau Ballet's "Gold" on here? I can understand not liking it (personally, it's one of my favorite singles from them), but it doesn't even fit into the novelty cheese of the day. To me, all of these songs are good compared to much of the garbage we were force fed in the '90s, especially the latter part of that wretched decade with Limp Bizkit, Korn, and Eminem. And there was worse music in the '80s than these selections like hip-hop and hair metal.

Same here. How can "Gold" be worse than "Dancing on the Ceiling" by Lionel Richie, "Unskinny Bop" by Poison, or "Papa Don't Preach" by Madonna?

Whinewhinewhine. Fine, I replaced it with Dancing on the Ceiling. [}:)]

Yet another 'Worst 80's Song' list that leaves off my most Odious personal choice "Puttin On The Ritz" by Taco
<IMG SRC="http://www.80smusiclyrics.com/images/ritz.jpg">
followed VERY closely by Bonnie Tyler's 'Total Eclipse of The Heart'
[:(!]Arghhhh..What's Wrong With You People?![:(!]

Man it's definitly Mickey by Toni Basil. And I really hate Wild Wild West as well.

As I expected though, We Built This City has the most votes, when VH1 did that poll, I was absolutely floored that it was considered the worst, I never thought of it as a bad song, and am still shocked that so many people seem to.

I'll take a thousand Mickeys, Tacos and USA For Africas over the most horrid slice of excrement ever foisted on the radio audience...The Escape Club. More like the shit club.

Is it just me or is the Escape Club's "Wild West" a TOTAL rip-off of Elvis Costello's "Pump it Up"?
