    I always thought that song was pretty funny.

    Paul McCartney's "Wonderful Christmas Time."

    Instant station flipper for me.

    "My Heart Will Go On" can drone on on somebody else's radio, Celine. Not mine.
    Kid Rock's "All Summer Long": Nails on the chalkboard.
    Mariah Carey's Christmas tune sends me scurrying to the head.

    haters of 'do they know it's christmas' have no soul. whatsoever. BY FAR the best song of its genre, blowing 'we are the children' to smithereens.

    all you haters bend over backwards to give curmudgens a bad name. it's among a scant handful of xmas songs i look forward to hearing repeatedly during the holiday season.

    lord help the artists whose hearts are in the right place....

    The worst song ever is the fucking Pina Colada song.

    And spnited, would be interested to hear the Looking Glass/Brandy backstory you mention.

    I choose not to feel guilty that I like most of the 1970s songs mentioned on here. And Looking Glass, as was the case for a lot of late 60s-early 70s bands, did one song (Brandy) to create a hit, a song that sounded nothing like the rest of their stuff

    * "Don't Worry, Be Happy" -- Makes me want to kill somebody.
    * "Everybody Dance Now" -- You can't come up with any more lyrics than that? Jesus.
    * "Achy Breaky Heart"
    Almost any country and western song, for that matter.
    Any song sung by TWhitney Houston or Christina Gagulera.

    You know, I don't have a problem with "Do They Know It's Christmas" or "We Are the World" as far as songs go.

    What I do have a STINKING FUCKING PROBLEM WITH is rich assholes who donate their TIME to try to get us poor peons to BUY THEIR GODDAMNED FUCKING SHIT to so-call "support" some third-world country when ours has needy people, too.

    All these fuckin' richbugs can get ass-raped by an anal-dwelling butt monkey for all I care. Give until it HURTS, motherfuckers!

    Don't Worry, be happy would be second on my list.

    Liked the SCTV bit, Huggy. I seem to recall seeing that before.

    "Do They Know it's Christmas" and "Wonderful Christmas Time" make me want to throw up. Instant change for the radio station.
