I just had to look it up on youtube to remind myself how insidiously bad it is. Yup, it really is as bad as you remember!Makes ME lose MY manhood.
And I'm a woman!
I was the right demographic I for it, LOATHED that song think


BTW I heard the GROSSEST song either DURING a wedding, or was 1st dance GREAT song, but omg I wanted to gag.
To Sir With Love.
(I walked down the aisle to the Imperial Death March)
You're technically correct, but any song that starts- Once upon a time there was a tavern has some Russian Jewish/fiddler on the roof vibe to it. Dumpster fire-definately!Please - that dumpster fire of a tune is NOT pseudo-klezmer. pseudo-polka maybe. ugh.
I love that song.BL just told me the bride wants us to play 'Those were the days'. Horrible pseudo klezmer that I think is about a suicide pact. I'm hoping we can sub that one out to an accordian player.
Been there too!Lovefool by The Cardigans. It's that, "love me, love me", song from the mid- or late-1990's. It was one of the songs I had to learn when I did some pick ups for a local cover band several years ago. Playing that song felt almost insulting to my manhood.
When I played Top 40/Disco in the 70's I played a lot of embarrassing songs. Maybe the worst was Saturday Night by the Bay City Rollers. The only saving grace in that song is that it is SO corny that we used to crack up every time we played it. The Audience LOVED it and would sing along.
Dwight Yoakam's Guitars, Cadillacs. That song is the poster child for cheesy-ass country. I shaging despise that song.That was t for a gig/band or w/e, but for no valid reason other thanthan the one in your head, what's the song you probably don't want to admit you learned.
Most recent the better! (c'mom it'll help me feel better about all the junk I'm playing due to where I am, that I HATE, but is helping this or that, and then some that are just downright silly cause I am downright silly)

The one that popped in to my head was this.
1985. A joint 21st birthday/engagement party. My band were asked to learn it and play it as a fun way of announcing the happy couple's 'extra' surprise news.
The girl's father, once he worked out what it was, turned around and flattened the guy with one punch.
Happily, he got over the shock...the couple are still together!
