    "War Pigs" gets off to a terrible start with an unpardonable error in rhyming:

    Generals gathered in their masses,
    Just like witches at black masses.

    i think its impossible really to chose a 'worst' song, some like chaccaron by el chombo are so bad they are actually rather amusing, i personally despise hardcore dance music or hardcore deathmetal but there is far too much to choose from

    i love war pigs! its the best sabbath song. i dont really mind the same word rhyming thing. i dont know why it just doesn't bug me usually.

    I heard a bit of a song the other day that really struck me as offensively bad. It was some new country song with a guy singing about his kid eating McDonalds!?! I shit you not.

    Without admitting anything, the song is not about eating at McDonalds. The song is about where the kid picked up some language and behavior.

    I can't stand "Light My Fire", mostly for the keyboard solo.

    That'd knock the buddhism out of the dalai lama!

    Back to music, I'd also like to nominate "I Got You, Babe".

    To Ozzy and Tony, stoned out of their tiny minds on finest Lebanese Red, believe me, this was an ingenious play on words.

    heh...

    No Sabbath songs are worse than their sappy ballads, though.
    "She's Gone" is enough to make you bash your own teeth out with a brick.
    Or that endlessly repeating grade school-esque piano "duh, duh-duh" business on "Changes"... yeesh !

    "Junior's Eyes" almost gets lumped in there, but IMHO it's saved by all those freaky guitar whoops & swoops courtesy of Mr. Iommi.
    Pity they couldn't have gotten some better production on that album.
    (The treble ! The treble !! Where the devil's the low end ? Can't hardly hear Geezer !)
    Why the hell didn't Spock Wall earn them free drugs he was gettin' for being a "special assistant" ???

    hmmm...
    Now I gotta give 'em a spin...
    Some "Air Dance", mebbe...
    LoL

    "Achy Breaky Heart"

    I'd cringe every time someone played it on the jukebox.
    Radio was no problem - I'd just change the station.

    Wow, the majority of songs on this thread I actually don't mind. "American Pie" by Don Mclean, "Hotel California", and 'Wake me up before you go go" are some of my favourites!

    However, some really bad ones have been mentioned. 'Achy breaky heart' is like having your teeth torn out without novocaine, especially since they used to play it all the time back at my primary school, and once made the pre-schoolers square dance to it (shudder). "I Got you Babe" is horrendus.

    I also despise all rap. There may be one or two good rap songs out there, but I've never heard them.

    Generally, any songs my peers liked in high school, I despised.

    Geoff:
    I was a little worried. I thought you meant "Crying" by Roy Orbison, who just kicks ass in general.
    Did you mean "Soogy Pretzels"? Because yes, that song is quite sucky.
