That's a pretty safe and pretty lame list.

Also, I genuinely enjoy Wild, Wild West, Don't Stop, and No Rain.

I do loathe Simply Having a Wonderful Christmastime, though.

This list would be more aptly titled "most exasperatingly ubiquitous songs of all time".

"Ob-La-Di Ob-La-Da" is a bit asinine but it's certainly not a terrible song. Ditto for "No Rain", "Africa" and "Baby I Love Your Way".They're just overplayed, and they aren't good songs - but there's a difference between bland, okay, mediocre and "the worst songs of all time". Also glaring is the distinct lack of Creed songs. What, was it too obvious? :shake:

And they picked the wrong Meat Loaf song; I mean, "I'd Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That)" is terrible on so many levels that it transcends time and space.

Ancient novelty songs aside, I find literally every single one of those songs to be better than Sirens. And not just because Sirens is terrible, but also because most of them are catchy or fun in one way or another.

It's nowhere near the Worst Song of All Time, but "Girl From Ipanema" annoys the crap out of me. Every version.

The 90's are vastly underrepresented

I hadn't seen that We Are The World video in a long time. Springsteen's moment during the second chorus is probably the funniest part.

Well he's practically a cartoon at that point in his career. He should be dueting with Hulk Hogan and then beating up Cobra Commander.
