I'm probably out on my own on this one. There's a wee story behind it. I'll try and keep it brief I was on the phone last week (to a call centre; boring story) and while I was in the queue they kept playing this song on a loop. It was truly dreadful. I mean wrist-slashingly bad It was so bad I had to hang up! I hadn't a clue who it was and didn't actually care but I've just come back from Tesco where it accompanied me (far too loudly so I'll complain ) round the aisles for about 4 minutes. So, to put it in some sort of context rather than just blind, ignorant hatred, I Shazam-ed it on my phone. Which is an app that listens and recognises songs for those who don't know. Turns out it was a bloke whose not my cup of tea but I always gave him credit for some semblance of talent. Ladies and gentleman, I give you the worst song ever recorded. And I mean EVER! It makes Agadoo sound like Beethoven's 5th Oh, and the video is positively vomit inducing. With apologies to all you romantic souls out there

That's nothing, this IS the worst song ever. It haunts me from family parties as a kid ( I do sympathise with you though )

I appreciate the inclusion of The Birdie Song in any list. It's a given. But at the moment, I'm sticking with the aforementioned ballad. Which I think is a duet. Sounds like it.
I was trying to recall what it reminded me of then it hit me. Pinky and Perky, although probably on some sort of slow you down recreational substance.
For those not old enough, I couldn't even begin to explain who Pinky & Perky were. It would just come across as a bit weird.

The vid is so much better, I can even tolerate the music :

This is a serious contender for Worst Song Ever IMO: It is a bit dire ๐ The drum sound reminds me of Phil Collins In The Air Tonight, but not as good ๐
