Posted by GREENMUSE: er,i dont like nirvana.or any of the seatlle
"grunge" bands.we probably share the same feelings on pearl jam. but i
see where you are going with this.and i am indeed in favour of the 3 chord
wonders of the punk genre.does this mean i dont or cant appreciate more
intricate music styles?no.no it doesnt.i dont recall saying journey werent
talented at what they do.when i can belt a tune out like perry or play
a journey tune on my guitar with my hands behind my back,then i might call
them untalented,but until then,i dont think i will be travelling that road.what
i am saying is journey along with air supply,chicago and genesis(post peter
gabriel)are boring music that pollute light fm radio waves and its high
time they stop.

anarchrist: yep these are all pretty crappy songs.
I guess I am kind of ashamed to like Blink's I Miss You and Hootie and
the Blowfish. I'll never be ashamed to sing along to Meat Loaf though.
p.s. thank god that someone besides me
hates that REM song.

Journey Fan: Hey Greenmuse, if you think Journey is
cheesy just because they know more than 3 chords, go listen to your grunge
records and leave us Journey fans alone! Its not our fault that your juvenile
mind can't process any song with more than three chords! Yes, I know that
Journey doesn't sound like Nirvana, but believe it or not, just because
they're not an early 1990s grunge band doesn't mean they're cheesy--it
just means you have a juvenile mind and can't handle anything more complex
than Kurt Cobain's twelve barre, three chord redundancy! Journey is infinately
more talented than your Seattle grunge heroes, end of story!

GREENMUSE: ok,then to me journey is the poster band
for 70's born soft rock who's unabashed cheese factor was unmatched until
huey lewis and the news hit the scene.all their post 77 stuff sounds like
the soundtrack from a bad made for tv film about a down and out sports
team who is gonna make a comeback in the last half hour of the film.the
same thing goes for korn,but change the plot of the film to the kid nobody
likes is teased and taunted but in the end wins the spelling bee and is
carried out of the auditorium to the sweet sounds of "all in the family".now
im not saying steve miller is gods gift to music either,that crap is boring
even compared to journey.

Bhas: "Just thinking of it" isn't gonna cut
it, man. That's not a reason. Steve Miller is WAY worse than Journey, mate.
People just seem to like ripping on Journey, and that's sort of sad. I
think they got some okish songs, certainly better than some of the utter
rubbish out right now.

The Truth: It's those kind of **** ups that make
the entire list look like it was made by a 16 year old who thinks he's
awesome because he doesn't listen to the radio.
And I know about other styles of music,
so? You call them hacks, but I bet that's the only song you've heard off
of that album. The New Jack style was pretty damn influential on the R&B/Hip-Hop
side when that album came out.

how those hacks spell their names.

The Truth: First of all, it's Wreckx n Effects, not
a ****ing man named Rex.
Secondly, it's Unskinny Bop, not UMskinny

You people can't even remember the damn
songs/groups well enough to get the names right, how am I supposed to take
this seriously?

Journey Fan: Why is it that every time a list of the
worst songs ever is made up, Journey consistently tops the charts? All
you Journey haters just can't handle hearing more than 3 chords per song.
Thats why you hate Journey! You probably all like Nirvana and consider
that real talent.

Lisa: What about "oh Ricky your so fine!" Now
that song REALLY is lame! I could go on, but why...you definitely didn't
dig very deep to compile this list and most of the songs are no more than
5 or 10 years old. Surely the 70's belted out more stinkers with all the
acid and drugs those people did. C'mon! My opinion...tis this list that
I hold in the lamest of regards.

Pearl Jam has some REBhas: Okay, now we've opened a can of worms...
Some "cool" bands make some very annoying, really lame music. Why isn't
Pearl Jam's remake of " Oh where oh were could my baby be?" on this list?
Most music from the 50's, I think, is pretty lame, and the Pearl Jam cover
was not only lame, it was annoying, and, frankly, made me loose all patience
with Pearl Jam, who used to be a good band. For crying out loud, "Wishlist"
has really lame, almost random lyrics. Consider this: "I wish I was a neutron
bomb, for once I could go off
I wish I was a sacrifice but somehow still
lived on
I wish I was a sentimental ornament you
hung on
The Christmas tree, I wish I was the star
that went on top
I wish I was the evidence, I wish I was
the grounds
For 50 million hands upraised and open
toward the sky." To this "song" I add: I wish Antimusic could would get
a clue because then I won't get pissed off.

Matchstick: 101 slots is far too few to even begin
to scratch the surface of lame songs since you decided to include country.
And hey...I actually used to love the stuff before it took a turn for the
woefully lame. The Angry American kind of epitomizes the rediculousness
of new country, but "Gitcha Some," also by TK takes lame to a whole new
level.

To all you donkeys screaming about the
list, two points - 1) This list is purely based on opinion! We all have
agreements or disagreements! Spending 30 minutes composing a short story
about how much you hate everyone involved in this list is just retarded.
This is simply their opinions! Spending a page ranting just makes you look
retarded.
2) Lamest doesn't mean "not enjoyable"!
A lot of these songs are cheesy, goofy, not incredibly talented artistically
- but we all love them! That doesn't make them less lame, that's part of
their charm! Donkeys.

the Avril Lavigne, Simple Plan, Blink182, and any other bands like that
that are on here. Avril Lavigne sucks, and people who spell "rock" as "rawk"
are morons who are desperately trying to be cool by inserting intentional
spelling errors because it's the "cool" thing to do. Anyway, I would have
to disagree with "Losing My Religion" and "Doll Parts," simply because
I can think of hundreds of more songs that suck a lot more that those do.
What about "Yeah" by Usher? "Hey Ya"? That crappy Coldplay song that everyone
loves? There are a lot of songs on MTV or BET or whatever the kids are
watching nowadays that suck for more than these ones.

It's Obvious, you guys ARE stupid.: Okay, look, some of your picks are on
track, and some truly suck. But even the sucky songs aren't realy that
bad. Where is your CRITERIA by which you judge the merits of the songs
on this lame ass list? This is not only an unscientific survey, as you
say, but one that is compiled by people who probably thought about it for
a few hours while drunk and/or stoned. You have no clear idea, I think,
WHY you've chosen these songs. If you had ANY sense at all when you went
about making this list, you should be prepared to make a much case for
including songs that obviously have serious artistic merit, such as "Losing
My Religion." More importantly, I think you are confusing matters of personal
preference with "lamest of all time." That is, you and "your cool friends"
might not like certian STYLES of music, but poeple with brains are able
to listen to songs in genres they don't like, and realize there is a good
song there. I'm not "all about" many of the songs you put on this list,
but they surely don't deserve to be on this list. People with any sense
at all would realize that the following songs really don't deserve to be
on this list: "All I Wanna Do"; "Open Arms"; "Every Rose Has it's Thorn";
"Y.M.C.A"; "Safety Dance"; "Saturday Night"; "Don't Stop Believing"; "Days
Go By"; "Dancing Queen"; "Girls, Girls, Girls"; ALL THE SONGS ON POP YOU
DUMBASSES; and even "Doll Parts." For God's sake, I can think of 101 songs
lamer than "Doll Parts." You guys are simply using this "List" to TRY to
be cool and impress us with your "stlye." Damnit, try not to smiply opine
and whine and cry when you make this list. I like this website, but this
list has really made me think you are a bunch of morons. That you put this
stupid list, the LAMEST LIST OF ALL TIME on your web page reveals your
inability to make lists worth reading. Those responsible for putting this
list on the web should be giving lessons in music appreciation. Then, and
only then, should you let them out of their cages to judge the merits of
songs.

Oh, and Edgirl, I did watch some kind of
monster, I don't ever remember seeing anything about kirk composing solos
for the songs on st anger. In fact, the majority of what I remember about
him was trying to settle disputes.
Yes, theoretically St. Anger is less lame
than a lot of stuff....okay, it's less lame than every boy band song to
have come out in the last 10 years or so. But, compared to metallica's
previous output... it's pretty lame.

Joker: This is a ****ing lame list. Whoever wrote
it clearly has no ****ing clue what music is. Give me a break, St. Anger
at #3! No Metallica song should come anywhere near this list. The album
has more creativity in it than 90% of all music written in the last 5 years.
The snare sound is a little strange but oddly enough it fits the album
really well. And since when is there a rule that every Metallica song has
to have a solo. I have listened to the solos that were written for St.
Anger and they don't compliment the song well. I saw a number of other
things wrong with this list but the St. Anger one was what pissed me off
the most. As far as I'm concerned St. Anger is Metallica's re-entry into
metal. This album stomps the guts out of the Load twins.

rjk43: Although I agree that many on the list
are horrific, I must add: You're Having My Baby by Paul Anka is the worst
recording of all time. No questions asked. It was so bad, it debuted on
Johnny Casron's Tonight show. In a time when pop music was soooo rediculous
that people actually turned to disco, it stood out above and beyond for
super cheesy lyrics, a crappy melody and rediculous engineering.

you can expect for the general public (especially not he ranty online bunch)to

Edgirl: "St Anger was supposed to be Metallica's
comeback but it drove the wedge further between the band and some longtime
fans. From the abandonment of guitar solos to the annoying drums throughout
this album, this first single drew a lot of heat from fans who wondered
"what in the hell happened to Metallica?" "
I have just a few problems with that comment.
Did you actually watch SKOM? Kirk tried a few solo's he'd written, but
they didn't work. They wanted to have solos on the album, but it isn't
a law that every song has to have a guitar solo. They really did try for
solos, but which would you rather have; A Good song without a solo, or
a Great song ruined by a solo that totally threw off the song's vibe?

whatever: I agree with alot of the crap that's on
htat list, but ST. Anger???? At # 3???? I mean it's not their best albulm,

DeadSun: (reads post below) Pity we weren't compiling
the most dumbly articulated posts of all time...

Pol.M.: WHO THE HELL WROTE THIS LIST??THERE IS
MUCH MORE DUMB SONGS THAN "NOOKIE" AND "ST.ANGER"...

daedae: Nah.... sk8ter boi is far more lame than
Complicated. Complicated wasn't all that bad, it just got way too much
airplay (and yeah, some record exec was cashing in on Michelle Branch's
popularity, anyway).
It's too bad Journey went so far downhill...
I always hated them until I heard some of their really old stuff, and then
suddenly I just thought "whoa, what happened to them?"
Posted by
Wig: First, I think songs like Shaddap You
Face and Mr Jaws probably deserve a place on the list far more than, say,
Sk8ter Boi, which frankly is probably Avril Lavigne's LEAST lame song.
And in Johnny Cash's defense he was literally the first to admit that Flushed
from the Bathroom of Your Heart is lame.

aG: "Losing My Religion" was forever tainted
by its inclusion in 90210 for "dramatic effect".
U2 songs are so interchangable it would
be hard to single out one from the next and please explain how Edge hasn't
improved as a guitarist in over 20 years? That guy only seems to know three
chords. He couldn't even do a passable version of "Black Bird" at Live
8, hell even I can play that song better than he can.
I think we should do another list in six
months with a bigger call out to people to contribute instead of just on
the messageboard, it would be fun to see how different that list would
be.

atf487: yeah, shiny happy people was a pretty
bad, and LAME song. i wouldnt mind seeing that on this last at all.

banshee: If Barry Manilow's on this list, then
"Everybody Was Kung Fu Fighting" is a complete oversight. Your list compilation
apologies are accepted ...
Posted by
GREENMUSE: i dunno,"stand"is pretty goofy too.
Posted by
DeadSun: Fair enough, Nayrb. If I had made the
call, I would have gone with "Shiny Happy People". What a f*cking lame,
moronic, fatuous, irritating heap of ASS DRIZZLE that song is.
Posted by
Randall Flagg: Put Jet's "Cold Hearted Bitch" on the
list, it's
a pure AC/DC ripoff.
Posted by
Nut Symptom: Put "Are You Gonna Be My Girl" on the
list; better yet, put "Just Like You" on the list. Jet and Three Days Grace
are only making mainstream music suck harder.

Warrant: Heaven isn't too far away. Closer to it
every day. No matter what your friends might say, we'll find a way...

Nayrb: Great list for the most part! I have the
typical disagreement about Losing My Religion - I think that Michael Stipe
was hitting the height of his whiny-bitchness, yes, but I don't know if
I'd say it's a lamest. Also disagree with Serenity, but I'm a Godsmack
fan, so...
I will say though, for some of those songs,
I kinda wonder if "Cheesiest 101 songs" would be better. There's a lot
of lame, lame songs on there, but there are a number of cheesy guilty pleasures
too. Maybe that's part of how ya'll were interpreting some of this, but
I think some of those are merely amusingly cheesy (Meatloaf, Men Without
hats), whereas stuff like N'Sync is blatantly horrifically lame and anyone
who sings it should be prevented from ever reproducing.

daedae: I wonder if Rock & Roll Pt. 2 and
Eye of the Tiger have been lame-ified enough by the starbucks ads to make
this list...

GREENMUSE: when bono lost his mullet,he lost most
of what little talent he had.any remaning talent is there because he ripped
off julian cope.though i will fully agree their last album is awful.i bought
it for my wife and she rarely ever listens to it.she prefers the older,mulleted
stuff.she fails to see the effect his mullet had on his music.im sad that
falco is on here.he was the worlds rammestein before til set his first
object on fire.im proud to say however,i am the one who suggested tim mcgraws
indian outlaw.jesus christ on a moped that tune is awful

are you stupid part II: I mean, really, this is so very random.
There are some really good songs on Pop, I think. "All YOu can't Leave
Behind" and the new POS album are much less interesting. I think this list
really sucks.
Posted by
Keavin: Read again how the list was put together.
There were a lot of songs I would have put up that didn't make the list
if I had put it together on my own. You should see some of the submissions
already for lame artists! That list will sure piss people off. And yes
Pop is an album but it was submitted and retained as submitted (again think
about it and you might figure out why or just read GM's post). daedae,
if I didn't respond, I didn't get it.
Posted by
Soul Crusher: "Pop" by U2? That's an album, not a song
- and their last good album, I might add. If any U2 song deserves to be
here, it's something from their last two albums - I personally would suggest
"Walk On". It's really sad to see their career has come to this. They were
once capable of so much better.

daedae: I don't know that I've heard doll parts,
but I was never particularly impressed with Hole.
Posted by
Heart Shaped Cooch: You could pretty much fill this entire
list up with the teen pop of the last ten years. To put "Losing my Religion"
and "Doll Parts" along with them is just ignorant.
Posted by
DeadSun: Attention REM fans: Yes, REM is a good
band. Talented. But Christ, the time HAS to come for one of you to concede
that Michael Stipe has gone on to become of the whiniest rock star c*nts
on God's green Earth. Losing My Religion is Stipe's work at the very apex
of sniveling pomposity. He should also be cited for copping his vocal style
off of Richard Butler (first two Furs albums).
Posted by
daedae: Surely "Achy Breaky Heart" should be further
up the list than just 81... I don't know if I'd consider "Funky Cold Medina"
lame, unless he actually intended it to be a serious rap instead of just
something funny. Oh, and I missed "Lifestyles..." yesterday, that's another
good call for lame songs. This list is entertaining.
On an unrelated note, Keavin did you see
my last email?
Posted by
GREENMUSE: pop was bad enough that it had to be listed
as a whole.bono obviously was full of himself that day and felt like seeing
if could pull such a stunt off.
Posted by
Keavin: I knew this post was coming. No, we're
not stupid and if you think real hard about it for a minute you might figure
it out. You may find a few more "confusing" surprises as the list progresses.
Posted by
are you stupid?: Pop is underrated, and it's not even a
song, it's an album. Are you guys stupid?
Posted by
Fred Ray Osbourne-Lavigne Cyprus.: I agree that "Smokin' In The Boys Room"
is a really lame song...but to put it higher up than "Bye Bye Bye" doesn't
sit right with me. Oh well, "each to his own" I guess. However this list
is a really cool idea and I look foward to checking these comments as the
it grows, remember the corrospondance to Rolling Stone after their "Greatest
Guitarists" list? :D

catch33: coming from a metalhead, losing my religion
rules. REM is a cool band, don't know why they're on the list...
Posted by
daedae: Hmm.. I tend to agree with the people
disagreeing with "Losing My Religion." Nookie was entertaining when it
first came out but has long since been played out. "I Miss You," as most
emo, sucks hardcore. and atf487, the list it yet young, there's plenty
of time for enema of the state-era blink to show up.
Posted by
atf487: r.e.m is a terrific band, much better
than the crap metal bands constantly featured on this site..and while i
dont like blink 182, shouldnt something from enema of the state be on this
list? atleast they tried something new with the last one, even if they
sorta failed.
Posted by
ravenightpoet: i like the blink182 song(imissyou). i
dont know why thats even on the list

Caught in a Mosh: This list is cool.

lisen to backstreet boys

GREENMUSE: who hast spoken ill of men without hats?though
i agree losing my religion is pretty irritating.

Insignificant Other: Yeah...Losing my religion, What's up with
that?
Posted by You
suck!: Why is Losing your Religion on this list?
You guys wouldn't know good rock if it hit you upside your snobbish heads.
That is one of the best songs ever!
Posted byWesRulz: You are all a bunch of haters. Limp Bizkit
is the only real rock band around any more. I hope you all die listening
to your Britney Spears cds.
