After the "sun and moon" in "Save the best for last".

I've always found it slightly annoying in the Destinys Child song...

I thubnk Independent Women, Part1

Starting with

"Question, tell me what you think about me"
That's not a bloddy question, is it?

(guess noone cares...)

Probably got to be Life by Des'ree ...

Awful.

Brilliant

Anyone remember a song called "Summer Girls" from the 90's, by some terrible boy band - contained the unforgettable lines

When you take a sip, you buzz like a hornet
Billy Shakespeare wrote a whole bunch of sonnets

Pretty much any Oasis lyrics you can think of.

The ultimate must be in "That Was Then But This Is Now" by ABC:

"Can't complain, mustn't grumble / help yourself to another piece of apple crumble."

Mario -Let Me Love You

The offending Lyric:

"You're a dime plus 99"

WTF?!

Spandau Ballet, True:
"Why do I find it hard to write the next line?
Oh I want the truth to be said"

new kids on the block had a bunch of hits
chinese food makes me sick
and i think its fly when girls drop by for the summer
for the summer

lol

shakira -

'lucky that my breasts are small and humble so you dont confuse them with mountains'


will have to think of some more

I absolutely detest the line:

"And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmastime".

Yes. and?

(from 'Do They Know It's Christmas?'.)

Maybe I don't understand its meaning properly, but whatever anyones says it doesn't make sense. Poor Australia having Christmas in the middle of summer!

Yeah, you're right. And come to think of it, when was the last time we (and many other cuontries) had snow at Christmas? And why does it matter? Hmm.

Alanis Morissette - Thank you

"How about them transparent dangling carrots?"

Pretty much anything All Saints claim to have written, but this in particular from 'Never Ever' which always made me cringe:

'Conversations, hesitations in my mind
You got my conscience asking questions that I can't find'

Well if you can't find them, how can you ask them??

It snowed last Christmas.

'Im glad i crashed the wedding/ its better than regretting' busted 'crashed the wedding'

It is a question.

"Question. Tell me what you think about me?". It might just be rhetoric, but it's a question nonetheless.

The song stinks, though, as do DC and almost all R&B groups

What I really hate is the likes of the boring Razorlight:


Erm... stick your CD into your hifi and look in the mirror!

That line in "Do They Know It's Christmas?" annoys me, too. Of course they won't be Snow in Africa this Christmas. First of all, their climate isn't cold enough, and secondly, the Southern Hemisphere is in Summer during Christmas.

I once heard an interview with Midge Ure when he said that the original lyric was "there won't be snow in Ethiopia this Christmas time", but they couldn't make it scan! He admitted it's a lousy lyric...

Faster than a cannonball...

OK, I'm not trying to be difficult (...), but I still cant see how this is a question...

I would call this a command.

"What do you think about me" is a question of course, but...

I'm as serious as cancer
When I say rhythm is a dancer.


What absolute b*llocks.

The one that makes me laugh is from the "rap" on Blue's All Rise

Step in my house
You find that
Your stuff has gone
(Gone)
But in reality to whom
Does the stuff belong?

Far to many, but....

Nelly/Kelly Rowland "Dilemma":

"No matter what I do, all I think about is you
Even when I'm with my boo, boy y'know you know I'm crazy over you"

The use of "Boo" just drives me nuts. Besides the obvious misinterpretation of the word, they have twisted the word "beau" (the French for 'beautiful', and a term of endearment), just to get a rhyme.

Horrible, clichéd, predictable twaddle.

On Christmas Day?
