I Said From The First You Were The Worst

Some good discussion of the worst songs ever in comments, along with the expected dubious choices (“These Boots Are Made For Walkin‘” is the kind of terrific fluke AM radio should have been for.) Kudos to Charlie Pierce for citing “I’ve Never Been To Me.” Special kudos to #46 for noting that while I suppose “We Built the City” might be pushed over the top by being so self-congratulatory in the midst of such an unmitigated piece of shit, “Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now” is probably the worst actual Starship song, and hence extremely strong contender for worst song in history:

Indeed, I think one omission from the discussion is throwaway themes from terrible movies, an epidemic that produced a remarkable quantity of bad songs, like this strong candidate. What’s even worse about it is that two of the three guilty parties at one point had actual talent, although I suppose the one who’s been coasting since the first term of the Nixon administration doesn’t count…

…Weiner’s on-point citation of a Sting lyric reminds me of this classic.
