Worst song made in the name of "dance music"?

[kelvy]

ladies and gentlemen, what's your pick for the worst song ever made in the general, catch-all umbrella of dance music?

for me, it has to be Daft Punk's "One More Time"...bad, Cher-like vocoder coupled with superlame, hyperfiltered loops and uninspiring video make for this atrocity which briefly held the mantle for "pop dance" stateside thanks to the likes of MTV....prime, quintessential, peak-hour filtered trash 2000-style best forgotten and dare not speak its name....

[Andrew Osborne]

Macarena got me thinking about Llambada, which used to drive me crazy. All that great dance music to choose from but all the local DJs had to play it instead. My more recent choice is Who Let The Dogs Out.

anything done by Cher

"the hamster dance"

anything done by Robert Miles


"can't get you outta my head" just because it's corny and catchy at the same time...I hate that shit but if someone sings it or I hear it...it's stuck in my head for the whole day....

and that stupid ass song now..I don't even know the name of it but it goes like this...

"IIII feel it deep inside me....
I cant hide it
I can't deny it
I might as well rely on it..."

somethin' about drums or other... graemlins/banghead.gif

[dennis f]

oh and of course

Pablo Toto..yall who were into that latin freestyle thing know what I'm talking about...

crap any of that stuff just reminds me of the brooklynites with Camaro Z28's blastin' it like they were in love every minute of the day....

funny as hell to watch grown up men who thought they were tough as nails singin' bitchy ass songs!!! graemlins/rofl.gif

[Mark Andrus]

Somebody already beat me to the punch on "Short Dick Man", suprised nobody mentioned "Ice Ice Baby" yet.

The real "winner" though has to be something much more recent...the recent remake of "Like A Prayer". Not only is it a predictably crappy remake of what was a pretty crappy song to begin with, but it's all out of key and so badly produced I get a headache just thinking about it.

Actually just about everything being peddled as "dance music" by the more commercial interests in the U.S. seems pretty damn hideous to me now. Every so often I'll turn on "Party 92.7", San Francisco's lame-ass excuse for a "dance" radio station, and not only does nearly everything sound like crap, 90% of it has all the same exact sounds, chord progressions and tempo.

At the right time and the right party, with the right party people, any of the already named songs in this thread would bring the house down. I've been in parties and see "Who let the Dogs out" RIP the joint apart. Same for the Daft Punk tune. I could say 'Follow Me' is the worse ever made, but played at the right time, this record would ROCK the party.

In defense of C+C I must say one of my favorite dance music albums ever is their second, "Anything Goes" which gives the listener a pretty good snapshot of what people in NYC were dancing to circa 1995 and well it is pretty darn catchy. Way back when I was a music buyer for a major retailer and I had to listen to music that people might actually want to buy I found that this recording always got me "Bouncing to the Beat" and often got me full on dancing around the store. In the grand scheme of dance pop they were actually probably the best by far.

Worst dance song ever? "Macarena" was pretty bad in that it was not even fun to dance to, which undermined the ostensible purpose for which it was created.

The moment you put on the "Let's go chanting" mix of "Pride (A Deeper Love) everyone goes bananas over that cut!!!!

HAHAHAHA hey Lil Ray, have you heard Todd Terry's "When you Hold me" hheheheheheheheeh

I still like "Music sounds better with you" (Play around with the friggin song for cryin out loud!!)

I never liked Daft Punk's "Around the World" although Todd Terry and Masters at Work have decent remixes of this annoying tune.

"One more time", Listening to the Bee Gees crying in the background is enough for me to close my ears in agony.

The Redneck's "Cotton Eyed Joe". This has to be in the top 3 of worst dance records ever made.

"The Whistle Song"? Are you buggin, that track is still bangin!!!

"Follow me"? ROGER S REMIX, find it!!! Play it!!!

Have you heard the Oliver Cheatham track yet ?

it isn't a good sample IMHO, it's shit !!, I hope Oliver makes money but my rant wasn't aimed at him, he's probably just taking what he can get, i mean it's about 20 years old so I should imagine it's about time for some sort of return, shit he should have been a rich man before the 90's arrived, fact is the people who are titled first (_____ ____ featuring Oliver Cheatham) made a shit song out of a good one IMHO.

I wish I could just hear the original by going into my music and put the 12" on, alas - to not hear the remake - I would also never set my Radio Alarm and I would also have to get rid of my TV because it's featuring on a Deodorant commercial here in the UK every 25 mins. Great !


These things are spurious, but lets not lose our sight/hearing to say something nice.

Modjo - Lady - SHIT (chart record)
Chic - Soup for one - Good (not a chart record)

FJMFunk - Love can't turn around GOOD (also a chart record)
IHayes - I can't turn around Good (not a chart record)

newish R&B act ? - Ain't nobody SHIT (chart record)
Chaka Khan - Good ( I think this also charted)

PHats and Small - SHIT ( everything they do is chart stuff)
Toney Lee - Reach up - GOOD (non chart music)

I can't help believeing that the new version of Saturday Night is shit IMHO - Do you actually like it ?

Martin

sometimes producers have to use "featuring" as the artist may have contractual obligations with another label. so in the case of cheatham he is a featured artist singing a cover version of his own song (if that makes sense)

i have heard the song and its not that bad, it could be worse bro he could sung a trance version

at the end of the day its a party record that aint gonna change the world, and if people that are oblivious to the original like it, who are we to complain. maybe from this they will discover the original track

i know that i have done that in the past, discovered the works of old skool artists through tracks that have used their samples

"can't get you outta my head" just because it's corny and catchy at the same time...I hate that shit but if someone sings it or I hear it...it's stuck in my head for the whole day....

and that stupid ass song now..I don't even know the name of it but it goes like this...

"IIII feel it deep inside me....
I cant hide it
I can't deny it
I might as well rely on it..."

somethin' about drums or other... graemlins/banghead.gif

[Pete Nice]

aahhh, forget all of you.... i had the fortune/misfortune of working at a club that played crap trance/progressive/silver/shirt/sunglass wearing hollywood hipster music. and yes this is a genre. two of the worst tracks i ever heard were a remix of the beverly hills cop theme track and a remake of a halloween themed song i used to like. no i don't remember the names, but i'll hum a few bars mad1.gif graemlins/cussing.gif AR15firing.gif graemlins/mecry.gif graemlins/banghead.gif
ahhhhhhh man. all the drinks in the world never helped me out either. oh yeah and that freakin' "launch" track. i'm gonna need a liquid lunch today graemlins/drink.gif

[D J 1 3 8]

I know I'm not alone in this...
AR15firing.gif "The Electric Slide"

I must admit, a lot of my hate for this song comes from the kind of people that request it.

and "Sing It Back" is still good.
and "Follow Me", despite being one of the most over-played house songs ever, is still a good song IMO. Maybe cuz I still remember when it came out but whatever...

Yes, it's overrun, but the "Follow Me" Lyrics still stand timeless, especially now ("...We must stop fighting. To achieve the peace...").

"I Found Love" by the Fatback Band

If it's gonna still be overplayed, I just have one request. That dancers correctly time the chant (Yeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaah! I found Love). That part is only after the second verse, and NOT after the first. NO ONE gets that right!!!!! Peace.

That's the Bucket Heads (Kenny Dope) "The Bomb". This track was pretty dope until everyone and their grandmother played the hell out of hit. Now I just play the bonus beats. Kenny Dope did a few remixes that were pretty phat (just wish that there was more to the sample that he used).

a little anecdote. Kenny Dope had some studio time left & so not to waste it, he ran home, got some records & in something like 7 hours completed the Bomb track. the rest as they say, is history.

not bad i say.

[Monny JcIntosh]

I still sometimes play "The Bomb" graemlins/spanka.gif . I don't like the Whistle Song much, either. One song I detest but everyone seems to love around me is Joey Beltram's "Energy Flash". "Ecstacy, ecstacy". Ooh, that makes me cringe. It's no better than other "techno classics" like that bloody, "giving them drugs, taking their minds away" rubbish. It's not just the drugs, it's the special brew. How it came out on Transmat I will never understand. Been brought up in Scotland at the peak of Happy Hardcore, "Tartan Techno" will always win the most ridiculous genre award but that's the other thread. That featuring Oliver Cheatham thing makes me seeth, but I've got a soft spot for that Spiller song. I change the words and sing it to my cat, "That's the Minna: Why does she feel so, why does she feel so soft?". Quite a few songs end up with a similar fate. biggrinangel.gif

Originally from R&S's Gent label, it was fair before it got spanked re-releases spanked again re-released - spanked.... but they had a lot of better and worse releases, probably pull out some R&S for this list, Dominator already mentioned, Lords of Acid - Hi Ho which was basically a belgium new beat stomper with the 7 dwarfs graemlins/rofl.gif , they made up for it though with some quality releases so fair play Gent !

Uhh, that's saying a hell of a lot especially for Henry Street Records. Plus the fact that Big Beat and Positiva Licenced "The Bomb" and it's remixes that sold a shitload of copies.

Remember Armand Van Helden's "The Funk Phenomena" also released on Henry Street Records? Basically the same outcome as "The Bomb".


Ya can't blame them!!

[Jolyon]

Re: Fatback.

There's a good remix of that by Phil Harding on the UK 12". Leaves the track in tact but extends it out and beefs up the drums just a tiny bit.

P.S. I like Ordinary Day by Duran Duran. Haha.

Went to a party the other night
All the ladies were treating me right
Moving my feet to the disco beat
How in the world could I keep my seat
All of a sudden I began to change
I was on the dance floor acting strange
Flapping my arms I began to cluck
Look at me..I'm the disco duck

Disco Duck: Ah get down mama, I've got to have me a woman, ha ha ha ha ha
Chorus: Disco, disco duck
Disco Duck: Got to have me a woman
Chorus: Disco, disco duck
Disco Duck: Oh get down mama
Chorus: Try your luck, don't be a cluck, disco
Disco Duck: Disco

Disco Duck: Disco
Chorus: Disco
Disco Duck & Chorus: Disco
Chorus: Disco disco duck
Disco Duck: All right
Chorus: Disco disco duck
Disco Duck: Ah get down mama, oh mama shake your tail feather, ha ha ha ha ha

When the music stopped I returned to my seat But there's no stoppin' a duck and his beat So I got back up to try my luck Why look

Disco Duck: Everybody's doin' the
Disco Duck & Chorus: Disco, disco duck
Disco Duck & Chorus: Disco, disco duck
Chorus: Try your luck
Disco Duck: Wave to me
Chorus: Don't be a cluck
Disco Duck: I'm so happy to be here
Chorus: Disco

living in asia, i have been exposed to bad dance music time and time again...and again. some of the worst I can recall:
las ketchup - tomato song (last summer's macarena; if you havent seen the "dance" that goes along with this song...consider yourself lucky)
the 20 fingers greatest hits collection (short dick man, and 3 other songs that sound just like it...preferrably played in a taxi, loud as hell, and on repeat)
anything by the venga boys ("we're going to ibiza, will somebody please shoot me")
aqua - barbie girl
and then there was a spate of bad technopop in the mid 90's, la bouche, haddaway, ice mc, and a whole buncha others. i saw a cd mix of this stuff at shop rite recently and thought about buying it for nostalgia's sake.

We haven't even started on the Italian/Balearic cover versions of bad pop songs.

Captain Moonbase - Wot (Italian cover of Captain Sensible's Wot)
49ers - Gloria (HORRIBLE)
Traks - Long Train Running (Can't believe this is being reissued on Ballroom Records)

That Italian cover version of Nothing Compares 2 U, the cover of 'Hotel California' (Jam On It) and the abysmal cover of Phil Collins turd pop anthem 'Another Day In Paradise'.

I could go on...

Martha sued they asses for that.

Of course, Snap never got permission to use said acapella, so Wild Pitch, instead of taking them to court, was allowed to use Snap's music which they then released as "The Power" on wild Pitch.

Snap then got another rapper, from Pgh, PA no less, to record a new vocal over the same music which Snap then released on Arista.

Damn, that was complicated.

[Fletch]

Ghosting, unfortunately, was, until recently (probably still is) a very big part of the studio scene. Ghosting is where a studio cat (singer, musician, etc), plays or sings the actual part instead of the lead act. The studio cat does get paid for the session, but the lead act gets the credit as being the writer, player or singer.

Prime examples of this are:
1) Kiss (Gene Simmons and Peter Criss can deny it all they want. Bob Babbitt played some bass and Bernard Purdie played a lot of drums on those Kiss records!!!!).
2) C&C Music Factory, where Martha Wash did the singing, but, unfortunately, was, in the eyes of C&C, too many tons for the videos.

However, the person ghosting is well aware that they will not be credited with playing or singing the song, but will be paid. That's why, respectfully, I still, to this day, didn't understand the Martha Wash suit. What was the agreement? Was she just to ghost the song? Or was she given other promises (credit, video play, etc)? Would love some responses if anyone knows. Peace.

PERSONS, PLACES & THINGS by CHRIS LEE
Martha Wash

Profile by Chris Lee
http://www.bychrislee.com/ppt/marthawash.jpg "...Disco aside (but definitely not dead), Wash continued to rack up hit records—though some of them skipped. After providing the memorable, searing vocals for C+C Music Factory and on several chart-topping dance singles for Black Box (including "Strike It Up" and "Everybody Everybody") in the early '90s, she sadly found herself the musical equivalent of a ghostwriter—it was her voice on the vinyl, but someone else's name, face and bony ass on the album covers and in the videos. Nearly 10 years and a successful lawsuit later (Wash sued C+C's principals for fraud and misrepresentation), Wash insists there are no hard feelings.

"It seems like so long ago," she sighs. "I think the bottom line, as far as C+C Music Factory was concerned, was they were caught with their pants down when 'Sweat' took off. It was the first single, it took off huge, and they didn't have the album completed. But everything worked out in the end, things were settled where I could go back in there and work with C+C on their second album."

Today, Freedom Williams and Zelma Davis (who?) have gone the way of VH-1's "Where Are They Now," but Wash has survived...."

i've got to join the hate on the "electric slide".

the slide problem:

my problem with the slide is that when the dj plays it (jerk), the whole party (except me and hubby) goes "wooooo", jumps up, and starts boogeying. predictably the dj plays the entire cut and inevitably plays "cha-cha slide" after it.

what can you possibly play after this? answer: nothing. the slide is now a crowd killer. because the crowd wants to keep electric-sliding, you put on a non ___-slide track and the people stop dancing. then the party is abolutely dead. but there is a solution... read on.

the only way successful way to resolve this dance debacle --a.k.a. the slide problem-- is to send in the slide-breaker. this person must go into the slide formation and begin dancing conventionally (non-slide style) with at least one other person to stop the slide crowd from growing. this action will create disruptions in the formation; thus causing fissures and a ripple effect of distruction will occur. in order to save any residual dance energy, the slide breaker must do this before the end of the slide song or songs.

no, this is not a joke.

Believe gets my vote, because it is shit, through and through. Perhaps the worst recording ever made in the name of dance music is a song called "Anton aus Tirol" by DJ Otzi. Most continental DHPers will know it and concur(It went number one in every german speaking country, i believe). it is a techno remake of a polka track, sung by a guy in leiderhosen. Though i must admit, most cheesy european dance music manages to escape my criticism because it doesn't take itself seriously, whereas Cher's believe does, making it evil.

This is a sad thread. All this hate for music by people who try to be "deeper than thou" ... seems like the title of this thread could've been "What are the most popular songs made in the name of "dance music". graemlins/jpshakehead.gif

Hate all you like, but if it weren't for many of these songs there would be no market for dance music at all and we'd all be home jerking off rather than playing music for people to dance to.

I ain't applauding Cher for her magnificent song :rolleyes: "Believe", but I'm sayin it sure as hell helped dance music get some sorely needed attention, and guess what? Someone ACTUALLY GOT PAID to do dance music (for a change). Before you hate, you might think about the "trickle down" ... without it, there would surely be a lot fewer clubs, hence fewer working djs, producers, remixers, and people who are ON THE DANCE MUSIC BANDWAG0N (commercial or deep).

I must add that hating on "The Whistle Song", "Follow Me", "Gypsy Woman", Black Box, C&C Music Factory or "The Bomb" is the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen on this board. Learn some range, people... every wrekkid you play may be so deep that only YOU can comprehend it, but that's why so many haters on the board are unemployed as DJs. How many people you gettin thru to with your oh-so-deep deepness? 10? 15? If it takes an occasional lowest-common-denominator (i.e., sample loop, hook, etc.) to get thru to millions of people, why is that a bad thing?

p.s. I'm surprised no one included Everything But the Girl...

These records were underground when they came out , and they got played so much for a long time that they crossed over and finally became successful,
nothing wrong with that.
wish we had some more records like that nowadays.
And it's a wonder why labels like Universal(in canada as of two weeks ago) fire their whole dance department,
cuz they think no one listens to or buys this music.
the end is near...........................if it isn't here already......
yes people lets keep hating and supressing our music when it crosses over or becomes a timeless classic for the whole world.(little sarcasm there)
I still think that "he's the groove" by "Snuky Tate" on Emergency Records is the worse dance record ever.

God forbid somebody actually has a little success in this business. Soon as you make a little dough, everybody's ready to call you a "sell-out".

If one of Glenn Underground or Larry Heard's records made it to #1 on the Billboard Dance Charts in the U.S., all of a sudden they'd be branded "too commercial" and "sellouts" by the "deeper-than-thou" crowd. These producers BUST THEIR ASSES TO MAKE MUSIC and if they get a commercial success now and then, GOOD FOR THEM!
Same shit happened on this board when "Music & Wine" got into a TV commerical. Hate all you want, you know that record was dope.

Yeah, I said it. What?!?

Jon, it may not be that sad. The possiblity is people are simply expressing a subjective critical opinion and having a bit of fun at the same time?

I agree this can and usually is tedious and unimaginative, however, at the other end of the spectrum you have that kind of sycophancy and gratuitous backslapping, silly hand shake stuff - I mean who would argue that good music/art frequently emerges from that. Maybe this is a bit pretentious and I may still be stoned. But put it this way, I think that maybe Turbo B from Snap maybe isn't a great rapper. Does this make me a hater . I mean this is pretty redundant kind of terminology this hater stuff Jon. JMO.

Alright, I'll take the heat for being "deeper than thou" on this thread.

Having said that, I remember an interview with EPMD in the late 80s. They said that they try to make the best songs possible out of their heart. What the industry does with their work is out of their hands once they put it out.

A prime example of the above statement is Bobby McFerrin's "Don't Worry, Be Happy". Personally, I think the song, plus the album "Simple Pleasures" is one of the great vocal instrumentals of all time, despite the overplay of "Don't Worry...". That album, and the song, showed how far the voice could be used as an instrument.

I don't believe McFerrin intended on the commercial blowup "Don't Worry..." would garner. He just put it out there, and the industry (radio, etc) just launched it. In fact, after the steam died down, McFerrin, an accomplished jazz artist, retreated back into the jazz/classical realm, and is still singing and conducting. Peace.

I agree with you a bit, but tone it down!! No one, I think, is really taking this too seriously, it is a light, amusing thread. I know I had a good laugh reading the entries.

Frankly, I have nothing against people making money through dance music. Most of the songs listed on this thread need to be understood in context. No one is putting Scooter's "Move your ass" next to "Let No Man Put Asunder". Scooter would be stoopid if spun at Crobar. On the other hand, it can be quite appropriate in a disco in Greece filled with drunk teenage tourists looking to score. Nice and dumb and not guilty of over thinking anything. Sounds like a good time to me.

I hate Dirty Vegas that shit is stupid. Was playing one night got off and this kid started playing that shit. He started dancin with glow sticks so I started laughing at him, and so was the whole club in which he was supposed to be playin house music. He came from behind the decks and asked if I had a problem. Later that night he found out what the problem was. AR15firing.gif AR15firing.gif graemlins/cussing.gif mad1.gif
I know I should not have been laughing at him but I could not help it. Anyone who has the nerve to do some shit like that deserves to get ridiculed.

it ain't like that here it's over exposed and has been for 10 years, probably longer.


My reply wasn't aimed at musically aware more at the business/ units chatters, talk units like we're talking about candy bars.

So while Kemi is getting all selling units - moving product selling exposure I am thinking what the ****s that got to do with it being good, in that case Bush is a good president because he got voted in (sort of) and is getting more popular in polls.

If I don't like a record and it annoys me I am at liberty to say so, why then do people feel the need to point out units sold is good for dance music, BOLLOCKS !

Money is the route of all evil so what's units sold got to do with good music, if it was the case Oliver Cheatham would have been number 1 in 1983 not 2003, next someone will be quoting me stats, 95% of 18 - 21 year old bought Scooters last records , wow that's interesting I will read the report while I am listening to the song on the radio It will make it sound a lot better I am sure , how about I burn the report turn the radio off ! ! ,
