that wasnt a countdown for worst songs of all time
it was songs that were awesomely bad, meaning they were good when they came out, but no one knows why

I know of this. Actually it wasn't worst, it was "most awesomely bad." If there was ever a list of most awesomely bad tv networks in regards to list based shows, VH1 would dominate the number 1 spot unmercifully.

No way! The Superfreak would kick the crap out of whoever it is that sings your crappy little song (If he wasn't dead, I mean).

Any Metallica, any Judas Priest, any Iron Maiden, any old Van Halen, any old Ozzy w/Randy Rhoades, Triumph, Rush, AC/DC, Scorpians, Rainbow, Dio, anything before the new wave crap started...hahahahahaha

[Lazymeatball]

All I have to say is Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, radio station Emotion, it has Toto, Mr. Mister, John Waite, Squeeze, Foreigner, Sister Christian, Luther Vandross, Jan Hammer, Animotion, etc.

ps John Waite - I an't missing you = best song ever.

[The Dude]

Tears for Fears: Songs From the Big Chair is my favorite album of the 80s.

[M2d]

I think the worst part about this song was the let down when you realized that this band used to be Jefferson Airplane. Quite a long ways from Height St.
