they've got most of the list right

but I disagree that Bon Jovi's 'Its my life' Daniel Powter's 'Bad day' Mika's 'Grace Kelly' SClub's 'Don't stop moving'

are amongst the worst songs of the decade, they are all just either over played or have become dated already.

not when you have (shudder) Crazy Frog featuring Baha Men: 'Who Let The Frog Out' to contend with

Some of those songs are brilliant.

The man who can't be moved, Grace Kelly, Bad day, Its my life, Don't stop movin', Hero, Hallelujah, amongst others.

Probably just written by one guy who doesn't like pop music.

Natasha Bedingfield - "These Words" should have made the list. It is by far the most irritating song of the century so far

Okay, so it's a "cool" website which has to knock James Blunt, S Club 7, Westlife et al.

But Don't Stop Movin' isn't even S Club's worst song! Whilst I like the cheesey pop, I feel sure "Love ain't gonna wait for you" has to be seen as a far poorer song than Don't stop movin.

Lazy journalism.

How the hell did he list the 50 'worst' songs and avoid Paris Hilton???

I'll reclaim Mr Writer & She's So Lovely from those that haven't been reclaimed, and add Miss Hilton and Leona's cover of 'Run'

I agree with most of the list, especially musical abominations like Black Eyed Peas, Mika, Niickelback, Orson etc. I'm sure there are lots of others that could have been included. Maroon 5 spring to mind.

Is it wrong that I like half those songs? Enrique's Hero especially shouldn't be on that list, it's a brilliant song.

all of her songs should be on that.

"If I were a Boy" - Beyonce.

I was unlucky enough to hear this in the doctors waiting room the other day and had to look up the lyrics when I got back, just so I could have a good laugh again!

God, it's terrible

3 Of A Kind's abysmal 'Babycakes' should be in the top ten at least. Disgracefully bad record.

If you're gonna compile a list of the wors songs of the decade so far, you're gonna need at least 100 places, at least

It has been a shocking decade, popular music wise.

The commentary really made me laugh. It wasn't just pop music, lots of genres were attacked... Counting Crows being in there surprised me, I love their version of Big Yellow Taxi!

I didn't even know there'd been a song called 'Who Let The Frog Out...'

"Human" by the Killers. Terrible lyrics.

gosh, i'm glad i don't know the guy who took the time to write all those, he could probably turn people into manic depressives. i'm not saying all of those songs were any good though.

I suppose I should feel blessed that I've never heard of about 80% of those tracks.

Well the label ''worst songs of the decade'' doesn't sound like I'm missing out on much and nor is it an incentive to want to hear them. Besides, the few that I do know, I agree that they are uber cheesy so maybe there's a bit of a theme going on there, no?

Agree with most of the list apart from a few.
