Interesting selection of songs. Some are really terrible but some are fantastically trashy which are absolutely brilliant!

So where is "Walkin' in the Sand" by the Shangri-Las?

Do you mean it didn't make the list?

Wow, what a selection. I agree with alot of you, theres some damn fine songs in there, along with some really terrible ones. However, at the end of the day, music is meant to be fun, and alot of these singles are fun! However bad you think some of them are, when you're at a club or in your car and they come on the radio you can't help but sing along to them!

Why are there no pop-new-metal band songs there? Most of them release dire crud... lol.

Does anybody remember the BBC1 Inside Story about the creation of Upside Down? I have it on tape!

I also vaguely recall Upside Down being renamed Orange Orange and that they even appeared on trendy MTV! However, Orange orange never even released a single (or if they did they didn't enter the Top 75)

Too many rubbish songs! I haven't heard half of the songs but there are a few that I have the misfortune to have heard loads and loads of times.

Why isnt Bohemian Rhapsody on the list?

IMO it is far and away the worst song ever made. Its the one song that makes me want to smash things whenever I hear it.

Maybe because it's classed as *rock* rather than *pop*


I'm going to have to think long and hard for my 10 there are sooo many booboos to choose from

I found it surprisingly hard to choose, once I'd picked out some really obvious ones like The Fast Food Rockers (blech) and the Cheeky Girls (likewise).

Almost wish I could've picked more than 10

Well you could try voting twice. Not sure whether it would accept it (from the same PC) or not, but you could try.
