Another Apology
More important than the Steele-Limbaugh and Alex Rodriguez apology, Vanilla Ice finally apologizes for Ice, Ice Baby. Though I think he should apologize for not being able to wear his cap correctly. For more about bad songs, go to Right Music Wrongs. What artists should apologize next? And, what should they apologize for?
WHAT!?
That song brought joy and happiness into an untold number sof lives and HE is apologizing?
I demand an apology for the apology.
I’m wanting a big ol’ apology for this classic.

I think that “How Bizzare” guy should apologize. Plus, the song I hate above all others is “She Drives Me Crazy” by the Fine Young Cannibals. *shudder*
Apologies AND reparations are needed for this one.
Ha, Cassandra! Take this!

no, he stole from Queen and David Bowie
Under Pressure is one of the best musical ventures in the history of man. I appreciate the effort but i can never forgive him for that song
I’ll raise you this mess, Pandora!
Really he does need to apologize for this, and contribute his worldly wealth to the American Diabetes Association. When I went to You Tube to get the video, there are tons of home vids of people’s new babies with this treacly thing playing….yuck.
Ouch! But, never fear, I’ll raise the yuck factor with this…

I LOVED that song. Screw y’all…
His apology is not good enough, unless he apologizes to Rush 😉
I don’t want apologies. I want tribunals.
Musical crimes against humanity that should be prosecuted in the Hague:
We Built This City – Starship
Courtesy of the Red, White & Blue – Toby Keith
Uptown Girl – Billy Joel
The Final Countdown – Europe
Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go – Wham!
Sussudio – Phil Collins
Please also consider the summary execution of the following artists for their body of work:
Toby Kieth
Whitney Houston
Cher
Creed
Bobby McFerrin (or did he already take care of that?)
Hanson
Kenny G
Poison
Winger
Evanescence
Billy Ray Cyrus
Yanni
This is a good start…
aww Bobby McFerrin? i think 50 centS has done much more damage to music
“Don’t Worry, Be Happy” was horrible. But McFerrin is a trained opera singer and does have a body of jazz work that is interesting.
Otherwise, sign me up for the front row of Brian’s tribunal list.
awww c’mon it is such a happy song, and it’s all vocal…. there are some recordings of Yo-Yo Ma and Bobby …. VERY cool…… i dunno im a classical guy
I will take on all you anvil throwers when it comes to music
It stopped being happy the minute it started being overplayed. So McFerrin has to apologize.
It is entirely possible that the balance Bobby McFerrin’s entire musical catalog is stellar – however, the inclusion of that insipid piece of bubblegum trash merits him being on the list.
I can understand defending the rest of his work. That song is soooooooooo terrible. I would rather hear my 11 month old wail for an hour than have to hear it again.
I stand by the list.
🙂
OK, Cassandra and Padora, this is war. You want sickening sweet? You got it:
Debbie Boone – You Light Up My Life
It isn’t McFerrin’s fault it was overplayed. i like some songs that the radio kills… i don’t blame the artists.. take him off the list it IS war im ready for a fight
Mary MacGregor — Torn Between Two Lovers
Treacly, insipid and probably the inspiration for the Hallmark Channel!
ps. she couldn’t sing, either.
THIS deserves all sorts of apologies!
Y’all just got RICKROLL’D! HA HA HA!
Ewww, Debbie Boone!
Hey, wait a minute! I already nominated Torn Between Two Lovers! Does that mean I win? (comment#2)
WOW-You guys covered this nicely, but please add:
Theme song from Love Story
Ring My Bell
Doctor’s Orders
Apology still waiting from Barry Manilow of ever appearing IN FRONT OF a camera–and for that matter Neil Sedaka too. Hey, you guys were doing great across the radio…
Let’s just go to the master list:
Romancing The ’70s (a Time Life collection).
Currently playing in late-nite infomercials.
THANK YOU anon-you brought the mother lode!
Two glaring omissions:
Paula Abdul and her inspiration, Stacy Q of “Two of Hearts” fame.
I think I have the high-pitched, whiney, overly-sampled vocal atrocities covered.
A1A Beachfront Avenue, baby!
Best musical slam EVARRR?
Of course it’s David Cross stating that he’d rather listen to his own child’s death rattle than anything by Evanescence!
😆
There’s so many treacly/bad (good?) songs out there it’s hard to choose a winner (loser?).
