New Poll!

iven this picture:

36.36% of you guys think that number 5 is the biggest douchebag. I'd have to say that I agree.
In second place was 6 with 24.24%. Number 7 was third with 15.15%. Number 8 was fourth with 9.09%. The others, while extraordinarilly douchy, were not douchy enough to overturn the extreme douchebaggery of Number 5.
You know what that means - time for a new poll. This one comes as a result of my driving around Madison listening to The Lake. The other day, when "Wonderful Tonight" by Eric Clapton came on, I realized a few things. First off, it's one of the worst songs I've ever heard. Second, Eric Clapton is overrated. In fact, I think he sucks. Hard.
But I digress. So that got me thinking, what other songs would qualify as candidates for worst songs ever? I've assembled a list. If you want to vote for a different song, say so in the tag board. Let your voices be heard.
Note: "We Built This City" is not one of the candidates because that song does not suck but, in fact, rules.

Yo. how can anybody vote for anything other than "hollaback girl." Let me state my case. The Nuge is awesome, the musical version of chuck norris. clapton is awesome, despite some crappy songs, of which wonderful tonight is one. come sail away is awful, but at least you can laugh at it. yoko, fred durst, and the black eyed peas have never done anything good, so, really, all of those songs are good for them. the pumpkins and diamond songs are good. but hollaback girl.... i mean, fuck. does anybody else remember when she was actually good? don't you think that Brad Nowell (of Sublime) prolly looked into the future, saw what it was like for his once vocal colaborator, and then over-dosed? "Holla-Back-Girl"? how about "Shut-the-fuck-up-and-die-Girl"
I voted for "Wonderful Tonight" because at least "Hollaback Girl" is catchy. Wonderful Tonight fails in every way that it is possible for a song to fail. Pop music consists of a few different essential elements: rhythm and tempo, harmony, melody, and lyrics. Wonderful Tonight is slow and boring. The music is very simple. There is no hummable or memorable melody. And the lyrics are banal. The song fails utterly. It is a steaming piece of shit.
At least Hollaback Girl features a Queen reference.
i didn't vote to protest the fact that you included so much recent crap and failed to include the crappiest crap song of all terrible, crap time, which is "hotel fucking california" by the craptastic eagles.
You know, unlike you and the Peej, I don't have an irrational hatred for the Eagles. In fact, I kind of like them. And I definitely like Hotel California, so that's why I didn't put it up there. Besides, even if you hate it, it doesn't compare to the kind of shit that's on the list, in my opinion. I mean, Popozao? That's bad.
Still, I was perplexed when soemone called the Eagles their favorite band ever. I thought they were joking at first, and laughed. Turns out, they were not joking. Strange.
