I'm too sexy for my love too sexy for my love

.....

And I'm too sexy for this song

[/ QUOTE ]

DING DING DING DING!!! WE HAVE A WINNAR!!

Weighing in at 213 lbs of pure shat, Right said Fred and "Too SEXY"!

Anytime I hear this song, my mind drifts back to 1986, and this fine tune by the late Falco:

He was the first punk ever to set foot on this earth.
He was a genius from the day of his birth.
He could play the piano like a ring and a bell
And ev'rybody screamed:
Come on, rock me Amadeus.

He was a superstar, he was dynamite and whatever he did (it)
Seemed to be alright.
And he drank (and) he cursed and he fooled around
But when the women would shout:
Rock me Amadeus,
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus,
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus,
Oh oh oh Amadeus.

With a bottle of wine in one hand and a woman in the other
'Cause he was a ladies man
He never stopped to worry what the next day would bring
Because the girls would sing:
Rock me Amadeus,
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus,
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus,
Oh oh oh Amadeus.

His mind was on rock and roll and having fun
Because he lived so fast he had to die so young.
But he made his mark in history.
Still ev'rybody says:
Rock me Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus,
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus,
Oh oh oh Amadeus.

*takes deep breath, while screams of terror come from all around*


There lived a certain man in Russia long ago
He was big and strong, in his eyes a flaming glow
Most people looked at him with terror and with fear
But to Moscow chicks he was such a lovely dear
He could preach the bible like a preacher
Full of ecstacy and fire
But he also was the kind of teacher
Women would desire

RA RA RASPUTIN
Lover of the Russian queen
There was a cat that really was gone
RA RA RASPUTIN
Russia's greatest love machine
It was a shame how he carried on

He ruled the Russian land and never mind the Czar
But the kasachok he danced really wunderbar
In all affairs of state he was the man to please
But he was real great when he had a girl to squeeze
For the queen he was no wheeler dealer
Though she'd heard the things he'd done
She believed he was a holy healer
Who would heal her son

RA RA RASPUTIN
Lover of the Russian queen
There was a cat that really was gone
RA RA RASPUTIN
Russia's greatest love machine
It was a shame how he carried on


But when his drinking and lusting and his hunger
for power became known to more and more people,
the demands to do something about this outrageous
man became louder and louder.

"This man's just got to go!" declared his enemies
But the ladies begged "Don't you try to do it, please"
No doubt this Rasputin had lots of hidden charms
Though he was a brute they just fell into his arms
Then one night some men of higher standing
Set a trap, they're not to blame
"Come to visit us" they kept demanding
And he really came

RA RA RASPUTIN
Lover of the Russian queen
They put some poison into his wine
RA RA RASPUTIN
Russia's greatest love machine
He drank it all and he said "I feel fine"

RA RA RASPUTIN
Lover of the Russian queen
They didn't quit, they wanted his head
RA RA RASPUTIN
Russia's greatest love machine
And so they shot him till he was dead


Oh, those Russians...


*sighs* They just don't write lyrics like that any more...

Eep! For some reason your words prompted a flashback to one of the scariest moments of my teenage life...I was at an event where they had several bands performing, including Glass Tiger, which I wanted to hear. My friends and I got sidetracked though, and when Glass Tiger was supposed to be starting their concert on the other side of the park, we tried to head in that direction, but got swept up in a crowd going the opposite way, and before I knew it, I found myself pressed up against the barrier in front of a stage, and then one of the most horrifying things that could ever happen transpired. I found myself less than 15 feet away from the lead singer of Wang Chung, who was bare chested, sweaty, and wailing one of their horrible songs. There was no escape. At one point, I think he was singing directly to me.

Ok, I'm kind of obsessed with this right now. I think I've got a good contender for THE worst song ever:

JOE DOLCE MUSIC THEATRE


SHADDUP YOU FACE - 21/02/1981
3 weeks at #1 - 10 weeks on chart

'Allo, I'm-a Giuseppe, I got-a something special-a for you, ready
Uno, duo, tre, quatro
When I was a boy, just about the eighth-a grade
Mama used to say don't stay out-a late
With the bad-a boys, always shoot-a pool
Giuseppe going to flunk-a school

Boy, it make-a me sick, all the t'ing I gotta do
I can't-a get-a no kicks, always got to follow rules
Boy, it make-a me sick, just to make-a lousy bucks
Got to feel-a like a fool and-a mama used to say all-a time

What's-a matter you Hey! Gotta no respect
What-a you t'ink you do? Why you look-a so sad
It's-a not so bad, it's-a nice-a place
Ah, shaddap-a you face

That's-a my mama, I can remember
Big accordion solo
Ah! Play dat again, Really nice, really nice

Soon-a come-a day, gonna be a big-a star
Den I make-a TV shows and-a movies
Get-a myself a new car, but still I be myself
I don't want-a to change a t'ing, still a-dance and a-sing
I t'ink about-a mama, she used to say

What's-a matter you Hey! Gotta no respect
What-a you t'ink you do Why you look-a so sad
It's-a not so bad, it's-a nice-a place
Ah, shaddap-a you face

Mama, she said it all-a da time
What's-a matter you Hey Gotta no respect
What-a you t'ink you do Why you look-a so sad
It's-a not so bad, it's-a nice-a place
Ah, shaddap-a you face
That s-a my mama

Hello, everybody!
'At's out-a dere in-a radio and-a TV land
Did you know I had a big-a hit-a song in-a Italy with-a disc
Shaddap-a you face
I sing-a dis-a song, all-a my fans applaud
Dey clap-a da hands, dat-a make me feel-a so good
You ought to learn-a dis-a song, it's-a real-a simple
See, I sing: what's-a matter you You sing Hey
Den I sing-a da rest and den at de end, we can all-a sing:
Ah, Shaddap-a you face! O.k., let's-a try it, really big

Uno, duo, tre, quatro
What's-a matter you Hey Gotta no respect Hey
What-a you t'ink you Hey do Why you look-a so sad Hey
It's-a not so bad Hey it's-a nice-a place
Ah, shaddap-a you face

I truly wish it was made up.
Sadly, that is part of Jimmy Webb's 'MacArthur Park.'
One of the most confusing pieces of 'art' this side of Salvador Dali.

If Amazon's link is working, you should be able to find a snippet to listen to here.

And yes, Weird Al's version is FAR better.

I dont know the name of the song or the group that "performs" it, but this song that plays on the muzak at the osco I work at is the worst thing ive ever heard.

Its goes like this... (chorus) "I want to live like animals I want to run through the jungle, with the wind in my haiiiirrr..."

Then there is a line.. oh god so bad.

"Animals and children tell the truth they never lie, witch one is more human theres the question you decide."

It makes me want to puke just thinking about it.

Went to a party the other night
All the ladies were treating me right
Moving my feet to the disco beat
How in the world could I keep my seat

All of a sudden I began to change
I was on the dance floor acting strange
Flapping my arms I began to cluck
Look at me..

But there's no stoppin' a duck and his beat
So I got back up to try my luck
Why look

wasn't there a hidden meaning to the lyrics of that song


you know like...puff the magic dragon wasn't about a dragon at all


and I want candy wasn't about a girl who wanted candy but sweet sweet lovin'

I would like to add "I want Candy" to this list


hey
hey
hey
hey
i know a girl who's tough but sweet
she's so fine she can't be beat
she's got everything that i desire
she sets the summer sun on fire

(chorus)
i want candy
i want candy
i want candy
i want candy

go to see ya when the sun goes down
there ain't no finer girl in town
you're my girl you're what the doctor ordered
i think you're so sweet ya make my mouth water

watch this
i want candy
i want candy
i want candy
i want candy
hey
hey
hey

i want candy
i want candy

candy on the beach there's nothin better
but i like candy when it's wrapped in leather
someday soon i'll make her mine
and then i'll have candy all the time
say
i say
i want candy
i want candy
i want candy
i want candy
hey

Well, I suspect that any song such as Yellow Submarine is more likely the RESULT of puffing on something strange, during the creative process, but I suppose any song that dumb can have any number of "hidden" meanings (I heard the same thing about Strawberry Fields, and others), and who could really argue with that since they have no "obvious" meaning that makes any sense?

I don't think the lyrics of I Want Candy contain any "hidden" meaning, as the meaning seems pretty obvious, but I agree, it is a truly horrible song.

Ode to Billy Joe, by Bobbie Gentry


It was the third of June,
another sleepy, dusty Delta day.
I was out choppin' cotton
and my brother was balin' hay.
And at dinner time we stopped,
and we walked back to the house to eat.
And mama hollered at the back door
"y'all remember to wipe your feet."
And then she said she got some news this mornin' from Choctaw Ridge
Today Billy Joe MacAllister jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge.

Papa said to mama as he passed around the blackeyed peas,
"Well, Billy Joe never had a lick of sense,
pass the biscuits, please."
"There's five more acres in the lower forty I've got to plow."
Mama said it was shame about Billy Joe, anyhow.
Seems like nothin' ever comes to no good up on Choctaw Ridge,
And now Billy Joe MacAllister's jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge

And brother said he recollected when he and Tom and Billy Joe
Put a frog down my back at the Carroll County picture show.
And wasn't I talkin' to him after church last Sunday night?
"I'll have another piece of apple pie, you know it don't seem right.
I saw him at the sawmill yesterday on Choctaw Ridge,
And now you tell me Billy Joe's jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge."

Mama said to me "Child, what's happened to your appetite?
I've been cookin' all morning and you haven't touched a single bite.
That nice young preacher, Brother Taylor, dropped by today,
Said he'd be pleased to have dinner on Sunday. Oh, by the way,
He said he saw a girl that looked a lot like you up on Choctaw Ridge
And she and Billy Joe was throwing somethin' off the Tallahatchie Bridge."

A year has come 'n' gone since we heard the news 'bout Billy Joe.
Brother married Becky Thompson, they bought a store in Tupelo.
There was a virus going 'round, papa caught it and he died last spring,and now mama doesn't seem to wanna do much of anything.
And me, I spend a lot of time pickin' flowers up on Choctaw Ridge,
And drop them into the muddy water off the Tallahatchie Bridge.

You never come home at night because you're out romancing.
I wish you bring some of your love home to me.

But my girl wants to party all the time

Yasou wanted something positive. So, here we go...


The other night dear, as I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms
But when I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
So I hung my head and I cried.

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away

I'll always love you and make you happy,
If you will only say the same.
But if you leave me and love another,
You'll regret it all some day:

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away

You told me once, dear, you really loved me
And no one else could come between.
But not you've left me and love another;
You have shattered all of my dreams:

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away

In all my dreams, dear, you seem to leave me
When I awake my poor heart pains.
So when you come back and make me happy
I'll forgive you dear, I'll take all the blame.

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away

Tom's Diner, by Suzanne Vega.

I am sitting
In the morning
At the diner
On the corner

I am waiting
At the counter
For the man
To pour the coffee

And he fills it
Only halfway
And before
I even argue

He is looking
Out the window
At somebody
Coming in

It is always
Nice to see you
Says the man
Behind the counter

To the woman
Who has come in
She is shaking
Her umbrella

And I look
The other way
As they are kissing
Their hellos

I’m pretending
Not to see them
Instead
I pour the milk

I open
Up the paper
There’s a story
Of an actor

Who had died
While he was drinking
It was no one
I had heard of

And I’m turning
To the horoscope
And looking
For the funnies

When I’m feeling
Someone watching me
And so
I raise my head

There’s a woman
On the outside
Looking inside
Does she see me?

No she does not
Really see me
Cause she sees
Her own reflection

And I’m trying
Not to notice
That she’s hitching
Up her skirt

And while she’s
Straightening her stockings
Her hair
Is getting wet

Oh, this rain
It will continue
Through the morning
As I’m listening

To the bells
Of the cathedral
I am thinking
Of your voice...

And of the midnight picnic
Once upon a time
Before the rain began...

I finish up my coffee
It’s time to catch the train

Gah talk about draggin up an old thread !


I can add a song to that though, no clue who the heck is singing it nor it's title but I HATE IT !!

It is some song the Encor channel is using for all their movie film intros...and I can not stand that woman's voice nor her whinning perma pmsing voice in that song whatever the heck it is or whom she is...she sounds like she needs a gallon of Midol. Female voices singing sounding like that are to me the epitomy of every female that gives the rest of us a bad rep........gah that voice is like chalk going the wrong way on a chalk board to me.
