@canefan True, otherwise Robson and Jerome would be taking out all the Farties.
- Farties = the award I just invented for these songs, like the Rassies for movies. Farties because they are very close to shit.
If anyone knows who this is without googling I will buy them a virtual beer.
Of course every ferner will claim they do cos everyone thinks they’re clever.
….and there’s no cure for being a fluffybunny…..

Potentially good thread just becoming lists of novelty songs or good or ok songs people got sick from over exposure.
Of those mentioned. Definitely Smash Mouth's 'All Star'.
As in does actually quite well represent the era of the late 90s in its sub-genre of alt rock and hip hop blend.
The lyrics contain the quite (now cliche) but then probably quite 'now' phrase of "get your game on".
Combined with absolutely timeless cliches of "all that glitters is gold" and"only shooting stars".
Then making "mold" into 3 syllables.But jesus christ. The lyric are bad.
The tune is just meh, and of it's time.

Mambo No.5 was the theme music for Test Cricket on Channel 4 in the UK. That is enough to save it from this thread.

Well done. A pint of the cheapest old bitter is on it’s way.

As a shithouse one hit wonder I thought it was quite good fun. Conveniently enough I knew a pair of chicks called Monica and Jessica which always made it a bit of a banger at parties back in the day.

Ta. I should add that in Robson & Jerome's defence, they didn't actually sing or play any instruments on their records.

Well considering they both starred on the small screen they’re one up on Milli Vanilli

I am honestly surprised no one has nominated any Nickeback songs yet. Bad, but not bad enough?
It would have been a short thread

Because although they are completely unoriginal and formulaic, they're music is so much better than pretty much so every other song on this thread. (Except for Daughter, of course)
Honestly would you rather listen to How You Remind Me, Rock Star, Far Away etc or Achy Breaky Heart, Cotton Eye Joe, Hey Baby ....
