Top 10 Worst Songs By Bands We Love


even our favorite bands aren’t perfect
every time welcome to watchmojo.com and
today we’ll be counting down our picks
for the top 10 worst songs by bands we
love to qualify for this list the band
in question must have a good reputation
generally but the song in question must
be bad regardless we apologize in
advance for subjecting you to some of
these
number ten revolution nine the Beatles
at eight minutes and 22 seconds in
length revolution nine is the longest
track that the Beatles ever released and
probably the most polarizing as well
avant-garde efforts penned by John
Lennon and heavily influenced by Yoko
Ono its featured as the penultimate
track on the White Album Paul McCartney
tried to persuade Lennon to drop it from
the record as he was unimpressed
and popular opinion appears to fall that
way as well eccentric enough to inspire
conspiracy theories concerning Paul’s
death and to warrant a treatment on The
Simpsons it was more weird than it was
wonderful number eight number eight
number eight number nine Beverly Hills
Weezer say it ain’t so
during the mid-1990s especially Weezer
could do a little wrong when they went
with this as the first single for their
fifth album make-belief however fans
were forced to face the reality that
their favorite alt rockers had gone and
sold out sure
Beverly Hills did top the mainstream
Rock chart but that’s exactly what it
was and what the band had become
mainstream the dreaded label for any
alternative Act Weezer treaded down and
even stranger path in 2009 with can’t
stop partying which featured Lil Wayne
luckily they have redeemed themselves
since
number eight get on your boots you two
you two are known for their strong lead
singles from with or without you two
beautiful day so when they released get
on your boots as the first single from
their twelfth studio album more than a
few heads turned in confusion
on the surface it’s an okay track but
there’s nothing to really grab the
listener except a hook on par with a One
Direction lyric and an overriding
feeling that you tube past their prime a
long time ago
in fairness to bono though he doesn’t
sing this sexy boost line too often
during live performances anymore even he
understands he’s not down with the kids
enough to pull it off nowadays
number seven might as well get juiced
The Rolling Stones
taking some cues from you to Zack tongue
baby era by adding electronic elements
to their critically acclaimed sound the
Rolling Stones didn’t quite get as lucky
with their change in south
mcgirt’s trademark snarl is toned down
for this track and transformed it to
more a mild slur it’s just not as
likeable or as listenable might as well
get juiced is a decent enough mantra but
it doesn’t really demand remembering
it’s a shoulder shrug ER we’ll take it
or most likely leave it
number six mother the police
taken from synchronicity which is the
fifth final and probably most highly
acclaimed record in the police’s history
mother severely divides opinion to this
day
written by guitarist Andy Summers it’s a
bizarre slightly psychotic track which
some listeners label genius but the
majority brand garbage
supposedly inspired by summer zone
mother-son relationship in which he felt
pressure as a golden child it screams
for attention but doesn’t really deserve
it it’s an album filler we’d rather skip
than suffer through
number five staying power Queen the
first track and fourth single from
Queens much-maligned 1982 album hot
space staying power signaled the
beginning of a bad spell for the iconic
band having had previous success with
another one bites the dust
the songs built around a misplaced
belief in a new brand of disco rock
which never really caught on staying
power snaps fingers sure but it doesn’t
possess any of what its title talks up
although the songs live performances are
explosive
the track is utterly forgettable and is
a strange fit on an album that also
features the classic under pressure
hey string players if I’m bus stop
asleep player number four bugs
Pearl Jam a song centered around an old
accordion found by Pearl Jam frontman
Eddie Vedder at the thrift store most
fans would rather he never made that
particular purchase lyrically the track
tackles the lack of privacy which comes
as a byproduct of fame the bugs are
everywhere and inescapable it’s a good
idea but it’s one hell of a strange song
the rhythmic grating sounds like a
circus slowdown but there’s nothing
funny enjoyable or even tolerable about
the nearly three minutes of this track
bugs infests our ears and not in a
grungy grimy or cool way either Oh
number three queen of the supermarket
bruce springsteen bruisin wonderful
design with most records on today’s
countdown there’s at least a degree of
divided opinion with this record there
isn’t
hard-ass earful soundless early
widely panned by fans and critics alike
queen of the supermarket is literally
about a lonely guy who’s crushing on the
cute girl at the local grocery store
it’s so far away from Springsteen’s
usual rock infused poeta sysm it’s a
wonder nobody put the stoppers on at
some point during production if you
actually are in love with the cashier at
your convenience store then please
whatever you do don’t sing this to them
number two funky man DD King a founding
member of arguably the most important
punk band ever formed dd King more
commonly known as dee dee Ramone really
should have stuck with what he knew in
the late 1980s The Ramones bassist
rebranded himself as DD King and
branched out into rap and hip-hop music
with this as his lead single multi man
is funky but not in the good sense an
autobiographical rhythm list run-through
of Dee Dee’s day-to-day life it sounds
like a very bad version of a Beastie
Boys tribute and that’s putting it
kindly you gotta fight for your right to
avoid this one
before we unveil our top pick here are a
few honorable mentions
you
you
this
you wanna step into my world number one
my world guns and roses in the world a
song reportedly recorded by Axl Rose
while under the influence of magic
mushrooms even the most die-hard Guns
and Roses fans would likely have to be
at least a little medicated to suggest
this is a good song one attraction Use
Your Illusion 2 is generally considered
a classic hard rock album marred only by
my world
it’s dreadful final track Rose is
undoubtedly an awesome frontman but has
a well publicized habit for leading Guns
& Roses in the wrong direction every so
often and this stud is practically a
road map of wrong directions

do you think suck – the most for more
