Worst Songs Of All Time

(Has this been covered already ?) CNN run a poll for the Worst Song Of All Time recently, with the usual suspects appearing. However, some of the entries are not that bad --- IMO [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img] Example: "I'm too sexy" by Right Said Fred I like! It's both amusing and good.

But with Lionel Ritchie, how can you fail? Here's what one voter said:

[ QUOTE ]
"Say You, Say Me", Lionel Richie (1985): "I checked, and that song really did win an Oscar. Martin Scorsese doesn't have an Oscar, but Lionel Richie does."

[/ QUOTE ]

Here is the Top 5 count-down, as voted by CNN readers (and their highest chart position):

5. "Seasons in the Sun", Terry Jacks (No. 1 for three weeks, 1974).

4. "I've Never Been to Me", Charlene (No. 3, 1982).

3. "You Light Up My Life", Debby Boone (No. 1 for 10 weeks, 1977).

2. "Muskrat Love", The Captain and Tennille (No. 4, 1976).

1. "(You're) Having My Baby", Paul Anka (No. 1 for three weeks, 1974). This choice for worst record was not even close.
