I agree with #1. Europe just got overplayed. I like the rest. -- I always prefer reality when I can figure out what it is. JALLEN 10/18/18 https://sigforum.com/eve/forum...610094844#7610094844 | |||

May I submit Video killed the radio stars by The Buggles? Hate it with passion. Can't stand the fact that The Buggles later joined Yes (and nearly killed it IMO) for the Drama album. Worst Yes album ever. Safety song still plays regularly on local radios. WTF? 0-0 "OP is a troll" - Flashlightboy, 12/18/20 | |||

I liked every song on the list. But I do remember them overplaying Don't worry be happy to death. I was listening to Europe the other night at work, along with Flock of Seagulls, The Cars, Duran Duran etc.. I had some 80's hit loop playing on Youtube. | |||

So we have final countdown on the list, but not one Culture Club song makes the worst 10 list??? I call BS. "Do you really want to hurt me?" has got to be the most noxious, turn-the-channel-right-this-millisecond song I ever heard. From the first time it came on, to today. Karma Chameleon? Oy. ________________________________________________ "You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom.

My most hated is Katrina & The Waves's "Walking on Sunshine." It's really grating since they also use it in so many inane commercials and movie trailers. The Beach Boys's "Kokomo" is also up there. | |||

No, the worst song of the 80s was Dire Straits Money For Nothing. I'd post the video but I hate it too much to even go there. ________________________________________________________ "Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil." Doug Patton. | |||

Toni is cool. The song is cool too, and iirc they didn't give it enough air time, imho. | |||

Anything by cyndi lauper or madonna would be a start for the worst of the 1980s. | |||

"Tainted Love" by Soft Cell should be on a "worst songs" list. | |||
