I think we did something like this a while ago. It was a hoot. Time for another visit.
Any song by William Shatner. This will make your ears bleed.

Looks like Fergie has got a run for her money XD
shareThis is number one worst for me. It's sort of funny how whenever someone does a terrible national anthem, there so ashamed and feel like they need to apologize a crapload. It's like, we know you didn't try to suck, and the humiliation of the event is enough, further humiliation is not necessary. I don't need anybody to explain or apologize.
shareRoseanne Barr actually sang it bad on purpose, she thought they were stupid for picking a comedian to sing it, so she deciced to make fun of the whole thing.
shareI didn't hate her version. Irreverent perhaps, but that's not really an issue for me. That's just Roseanne. She was pretty cool back then.
shareIt isn't even the worst version out there, at least she sang with passion.
shareBut she was trying to be funny by sucking (screeching) at it, problem is: silly is not funny.
Hey let's give Pia Zadora a whirl at it.
..it wasn't ha-ha funny.
shareRichard Harris: "McArthur Park" (someone left the cake out in the rain).
"McArthur Park" cringeworthy? Though trends change, that's an extreme adjective for one of the most classic, evocative songs ever. It' s not the non-distinctive generic-like music that has evolved.
I've thought it awful my entire life, sorry!
shareYou certainly softened your wording compared to message-alert I received from you, for some reason.
By the way, I don't know if you're aware, but the "cake left out in the rain.." lyrics is a metaphor. It's fine, I felt cringed-out by the loud-banging/scream/ inaudible songs back then which they called music.
We're all just giving our opinions. Seems like you like the song, others didn't, that's all.
What is "left the cake out in the rain" a metaphor for?
The lyrics have always had a cringe factor for me too, coupled with the to me OTT emotion he sang,
I don't think that I can make it
Cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe agaaaain!
But, even if I disliked the song, I would not need to vent such emotion/anger over it. Makes me wonder it's just the nature of the board, or if some people have never experienced real pain.
I believe "left the cake out in the rain" is a metaphor for the entire song. From what I can decipher, it's about losing someone, a lover, equated to something being ruined and irreparable ( the cake in the rain ruined). At the end of the song, the lyrics indicate "(the memory?) in his hands...and I will use it", and that after all the people in his life, "that lover will always been the one" . It's not about an actual cake in the rain and losing a recipe
But, regardless of the lyrics, I find the music enjoyable and with an edge/modulation.. If Donna Summer recreated the song, she did it to "improve" on it, or because she liked it?
I don't see either Prelude or Statego expressing a lot of emotion, let alone anger, over the it. Is it their use of exclamation marks that make you read their posts that way?
Well, I suppose that's what it means. To me it's an unfortunate choice of words that didn't at all evoke feelings of loss or sorrow in me, which I gather they were supposed to do.
I'm trying to imagine just the music, sans lyrics, and I can't do it, so can't comment on that. Did Donna Summer do a cover of it? If she did, I imagine it was because she liked it. As I said earlier, different people have different tastes.
That's cool.
I suppose the popular instrumental from that time period (from a film perhaps) "Love is Blue" is out of the question then.
Oh no, I liked Love Is Blue. Also, of I believe the same time period, Jose Feliciano.
shareI found this:
"orchestra leader Paul Mauriat, whose familiar instrumental version (recorded in late 1967) became the only number-one hit by a French lead artist to top the Billboard Hot 100 in America"
It's a pretty composition.
What did you think of the theme song for Chariots of Fire? I liked that too.
I dont' recall the Chariots of Fire theme (though I probably have heard it)
shareHere it is. I'm sure you've heard it before. I find it beautiful and inspirational.

Yes, I agree. Those lyrics are awful!
shareYou both ( Prelude) become this emotional over a song? You are stating something like it's a fact, it's an opinion, not a fact. And I dont' know what the poster is "Sorry!" about, as if I feel rejected.
shareNope, you are the one who's getting emotional over a song. We don't like lyrics you apparently do like. Deal with it.

Funny, I have heard people say "I couldn't care less"
Does it mean the same thing? I am so confused!! Lol

'I seen' has to be one of the worst grammar mistakes for me to read or hear. It's like nails on a chalkboard to me.

I think you would be excellent at torturing me.
shareThe vacuous poster who wrote the U. S. government was behind the WTC 9/ll disaster. 🤬 Also, the Boston Marathon bombing was a hoax. I cringed when he wrote it was “hilarious”!
sharethe thread is gone I do believe
shareI know. I replied in the thread “ANSWERED What happens when someone puts you on ignore?” It was a flame thrower. I’m happy the Mods took action and deleted the disgusting thread. Now if the inane OP would just stay home in his country I would be very happy!
