I'm now trying to outdo you with a worse song each time but I'm struggling. Think I'm going to have to go study those ITV Chart Show indie charts on Youtube again.

I've always hated Lucky Man. Think they got worse with each album and that's the one that always bugged me.

roxymuzak via FB nominated Kenickie - Punka

۩, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 01:07 (nine years ago) link

I like punka and have the pic disk but it has to go in as nominated (plus the reactions gonna be lols)

۩, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 01:09 (nine years ago) link

Stereophonics - More Life in a Tramp's Vest
Hurricane #1 - Only the Strongest Will Survive

No way should Punka be on there. Brilliant song from a brilliant band (Same with Something For the Weekend.)

Kitchen Person, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 01:09 (nine years ago) link

I already nominated Town by Northern Uproar. It has to be that one for "I'm going down, so down town where the streets are full of clowns"

If you're including Britrock, then:

Terrorvision - Oblivion

Toni Braxton-Hicks (Turrican), Tuesday, 29 April 2014 01:17 (nine years ago) link

Relieved I've only heard about half of that lot. Or at least that I've blocked out any memory of hearing about half of them.

popchips: the next snapple? (seandalai), Tuesday, 29 April 2014 01:18 (nine years ago) link

47 of the shittest songs of the era. One song per band max. Anything else to be added?

۩, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 01:22 (nine years ago) link

oh shit how can i forget wake up boo

۩, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 01:23 (nine years ago) link

How High is a great song as is Wake Up Boo, even if it was the reason why all my friends made fun of me naming them as one of my favourite bands.

Kitchen Person, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 01:28 (nine years ago) link

interesting there are no Elastica songs in the list so far. hard to think of a standout obviously-crap song from their big hits era.

piscesx, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 01:28 (nine years ago) link

I think we should stick to 90s songs. High would be a good 90s Feeder choice.

Kitchen Person, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 01:30 (nine years ago) link

making a playlist
http://open.spotify.com/user/pfunkboy/playlist/0y0gMIOGyKaqj70K3eEprx

I was just thinking the same about Supergrass. Someone will nominate Alright now I'm sure.

Kitchen Person, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 01:31 (nine years ago) link

fat les - vindaloo

۩, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 01:36 (nine years ago) link

i changed shed seven to going for gold via popular demand on my fb

۩, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 01:38 (nine years ago) link

Not sure how fair that is, but you are making the rules.

Good call on Fat Les but the Christmas song was worse.

Kitchen Person, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 01:46 (nine years ago) link

okay a bunch of lesser known songs plus bingo by catch arent on spotify but erm enjoy
http://open.spotify.com/user/pfunkboy/playlist/0y0gMIOGyKaqj70K3eEprx

Songs can be added to it as they get nominated

۩, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 01:54 (nine years ago) link

Already following.

"Sad little indie boys stil want to fuck lauren laverne" Hey, that has nothing to do with. That first album is a classic and the second one is mostly great too.

Kitchen Person, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 01:57 (nine years ago) link

ILM was like that back in the day though, DG loved to annoy said people. I wish he still posted.

۩, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 01:59 (nine years ago) link

Was looking forward to hearing Jocasta and Nilon Bombers and Thurman but they're not there. Alas.

popchips: the next snapple? (seandalai), Tuesday, 29 April 2014 02:00 (nine years ago) link

yeah,
Ive added the band I really disliked though thats gonna be controversial with everyone else

DUBSTAR.

۩, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 02:01 (nine years ago) link

Disgraceful is a great album. Where's Lex when you need him? He'll have something to say about all this ridiculous Kenickie/Dubstar hate.

Kitchen Person, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 02:05 (nine years ago) link

oh i liked punka by kenickie and that other single. I owned them. I think ILM is pretty much all love for kenickie.

Ive always been on my own here in dubstar-hate.

btw fun lovin criminals needs a mention. Not britpop but y'know... it counts and we know it

what was their worst track?

۩, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 02:09 (nine years ago) link

along with elastica and supergrass no one has nominated a Pulp track.

۩, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 02:12 (nine years ago) link

Quite right too.

Kitchen Person, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 02:14 (nine years ago) link

or Saint Etienne.

۩, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 02:24 (nine years ago) link

I kind of like terrorvision oblivion. It's good dumb fun

afriendlypioneer, Tuesday, 29 April 2014 02:27 (nine years ago) link

The one that goes "I've got supermodels on my D!"

Toni Braxton-Hicks (Turrican), Tuesday, 29 April 2014 02:46 (nine years ago) link

I went with the 10cc cover. That was awful.
