I don't know about our US pals out there but here in the UK our music chart is well known for having basically drivel and no talent cluttering up our music scene. Crappy boybands, manufactured twoddle. But worst of all is throughout our pop history there is countless 1 hit wonder poo. Onces that spring to mind are Rene and Renata - save all your love, Timmy Mallett - itsy bitsy teeny weeny polka dot bikini. Anyone else got any crappy pop hits they can remember.

Great stuff! π
The song that worries me the most is the Cheeky Song by the Cheeky girls. Any band with the lyrics "Touch my bum. This is life" should be shot.
I could give you a list,but will limit myself to 3: Hooked On a Feeling,covered by a group that was named either Blue Swede or Blue Cheer-moronic caveman chant intro, the lead singer had a voice flatter than 3 day old beer,and he couldn't carry a tune if it had handles on it. 2.Playground In My Mind,by Clint Holmes. What a piece of nausea-inducing crap,especially with that whiney kid joining in on the chorus.3.Tiptoe Thru the Tulips,by Tiny Tim. Enuf said.
