- I fifth the nomination of Minnie Riperton's "Loving You" as worst song
- of all time. I suggest the following as runner's up:
-
- MacArthur Park, by someone waaay back (late 60's maybe?), and popularized
- by <cough> <gagh> Donna Summer. Who the heck would put a cake in
- the rain, anyway?
- My nominee for the most idiotic lyrics.
-
- Muskrat Love, by America (?), and popularized by (for those tender
- of stomach I suggest not being reminded of this.....) the
- Captain and Tenille!
- My nominee for the "Song Most Responsible for Broken Radios."
-
- Thank God I can't remember any more such trash!
