11) Cygnus X-1, Book 1 - RUSH

 

A really, really bad read

 

And, lol, I'm done. Y'all enjoy dissing a bunch of great lyrics because they seem pretentious to you, meanwhile forgetting about the utter dreck in the world that's actually popular. Where's that Justin Bieber meme...?

 

I gotcha on that.

1 Sexx Toyz by Brokencyde

2 Innocent High by Blood On The Dance Floor

3 Sexting by Blood On The Dance Floor

4 Pretty much every song by Larry Pierce

 

Now next time name some bands we've actually heard of so everyone knows who you're talking about.

 

Seriously be glad you don't know those bands,...because they are BAD.

The problem I'm seeing here is that these lyrics, for the most part, aren't anywhere near worst ever; they're more like the worst from generally good bands.

 

In reality, this list should be brimming with entries from vapid generic pop songs... And Rush should be nowhere near it.

Except for Half the World

 

23) Bad Medicine--Bon Jovi

 

 

How many hackneyed cliches on one subject can you jam into four minutes?

 

Cheese in rock music of the worst kind.

That’s funny, yesterday I was going to post “Who wouldn’t want to punch Bieber in face?” but I got distracted then forgot. Truth!

I think a lot of these bad lyrics are just made up on the day they're supposed to be recorded or just thought up right on the spot by the singer when it's time to do them.

:yes:

 

Like the whole first RUSH album, reportedly.

And yet you know their songs well enough to post here and in spite of being aware they are obscure you once again spread awareness of them?

 

Yawn

If we had to list bad lyrics no matter what, it would take forever to get to a certain number considering the Radio Disney crap of the past two decades.

I was going to say the same thing. If the band is bad than why draw attention to them? I think this thread is more interesting if we talk about times where the good ones shit the bed lyrically.

:D

 

Take yer pick!

 

 

I stopped an old man along the way

Hoping to find some long forgotten words or ancient melodies [it's true - all old men possess forgotten words and ancient melodies]

He turned to me as if to say, "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you" [i would love to see this verse acted out]

 

It's gonna take a lot to take me away from you

There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do [100 men...or more! :LOL: ]

I bless the rains down in Africa [what does this even mean? :eh: ]

Gonna take some time to do the things we never had ["do the things we never had"? A horrible euphemism maybe?]

 

 

The wild dogs cry out in the night

As they grow restless, longing for some solitary company [i dunno about you, but I like my company solitary.]

I know that I must do what's right

As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti [whoa Nelly! lotsa syllables! And is that a double-simile in there? :O ]

 

But Toto's got nuthin' on Zager & Evans. :no:

3). Still...You Turn Me On - ELP ("Every day a little sadder, a little madder, someone get me a ladder")

Oh come on. I like that song.

20) Whole Lotta Love - Led Zeppelin

 

What ?!?!?

 

The year LZ II was released ( 1969 ) the kids in high school were walking around singing those lyrics, me included. Not saying the lyrics are great but for the times they sure were catchy. Certainly not in the category of the worst of all time lyrics.

 

Plant delivers the lyrics in a great way which makes it fun to sing along with. But the lyrics themselves are pretty bad I think. I'm not saying it's a bad song but there's no doubt in my mind that zero thought was put into the lyrics.

Way way down inside, woman you need love. Gonna give you my love. Gonna give you every inch of my love...

 

:LOL:
