WWTBAM Bored

Hey, no use keeping you in suspense all weekend for my ten favorite songs of all time! Here they are.... the greatest music to ever blast out of a Sony Walkman!


10. GOLD DIGGER-KANYE WEST, FEAT. JAMIE FOXX (2005)
ALBUM: I'mma Let You Finish, Vol. 69

Get down girl, go 'head get down to this classic, family friendly hip hop ditty from the master of disaster! This one's got enough reverbing bass to shake the cellulite on Kim's big booty!




9. BURNING LOVE-ELVIS PRESLEY (1972)
ALBUM: Gonna Need A Bigger Jumpsuit

This only got to #2? Man, this was the only thing playing in my 8-track player back in the day! You go with your bad self, Fat Elvis!




8. DON'T WORRY BE HAPPY-BOBBY McFERRIN (1988)
ALBUM: Royalties Pay The Rent

You just gotta love a cappella! Who needs screaming guitars and big, loud drums when you can have boops and bops and musical armpits?




7. MacARTHUR PARK-RICHARD HARRIS (1968)
ALBUM: Who Wants Wet Cake?

A classic through and through... and it even sounds good to a disco beat. Yep, I said it. I can plow through an entire can of sweet green icing and take a dump in the time it takes for Mr. Harris to totally invent the genre of prog rock!




6. AFTERNOON DELIGHT-STARLAND VOCAL BAND (1976)
ALBUM: Hippies in Love

I got three words for you. Best. New. Artist.




5. WE ARE NEVER EVER GETTING BACK TOGETHER-TAYLOR SWIFT (2012)
ALBUM: Who's Got Some Cheese To Go With My Whine?

Awwwww, this song makes me wanna get out those old squirrel footie pajamas I had as a kid and sing along with my bestie Taylor!




4. MONEY (THAT'S WHAT I WANT)-THE FLYING LIZARDS (1979)
ALBUM: Songs From Shop Class

This is what the Wall of Sound should have sounded like! The Beatles? Hacks. Every one of them...




3. MY HUMPS-THE BLACK EYED PEAS (2005)
ALBUM: Fergie And Three Black Guys

Wow, what can I say that hasn't already been said about this magnum opus of hip pop? If you dis this song, I'mma start some drama.... you don't want no drama!




2. BILLY, DON'T BE A HERO - BO DONALDSON AND THE HEYWOODS (1974)
ALBUM: Saving Lieutenant Dan

Sorry guys.... I love your song. Really, I do! I almost put it at #1, but....... well..... I must confess. The ending..... I bawl like a baby every time she throws that letter away.




And the #1 song on the Phoney 500 is.................................................................


(drum roll)



1. I LOVE THE NIGHT LIFE-ALICIA BRIDGES (1978)
ALBUM: Bill Veeck Sucks!

Could it have been anything else? This is the greatest piece of music ever recorded on any media that has existed since man invented the play button! Say it with me now..... ACK-shown! Long live disco!




I hope you enjoyed the countdown everyone!

LOL!

The way she sang this on the 1989 tour was like a different song. This clip gives the idea, though it was a lot better live:

Should've gone with "For the Love of Money" by the O'Jays instead.

Thank you sooooooo much in advance for the nightmares you have just set up for me over the next few nights,

Top 10 for you.



For me, the only radio station you can pick up in hell.

Actually, I don't mind the Elvis and Richard Harris songs so much, although hearing MacArthur Park about once a year would be quite sufficient.

I kinda like that song. Not so much that it's on my iPod, but not switch-the-station material either.

This is a list that a mangy rodent would come up with.

Or someone with 8,000 avatars who nevertheless leaves up a summer avatar for 10 years.

Hey! What do you have against Afternoon Delight? And I'm still waiting for White Rabbit to make its appearance. . --Bob

Afternoon delight reminds me of Natalie Black, the beauty who stood me up for prom. Said she got grounded. I've been scarred ever since.

I have your number one song right here.

That may be a slight exaggeration....

On the 12th, it occurred to me that it was the day I always started the Avatar Countdown on. I laughed when I realized I made no new avatars this year....

Or next year...

Or the one after that...

None of these songs appear on my list of the 50 worst songs ever.

And to be perfectly honest, I love "Burning Love".

Operative word being "slight." OK, 7598 avatars, and summer avatar left up for nine years, 11 months, 20 days.

Where's "Sugar Sugar"?

Compared to most of the gems brought up here, "Sugar Sugar" is "A Day In The Life"...

"I Love The Nightlife" is definitely right near the top (or is it "bottom"?) for me. That song makes me want to do a Van Gogh on BOTH of my ears.

This is so excellent. It's like a surprise leftover casserole in the crisper.

If it's leftover from Christmas 2014, then yes it is nyuk nyuk nyuk...
