In Reply to: A Slave Galley Upon the River Styx: What is the Worst Pop Song Ever to Chart? posted by John Marks on March 9, 2023 at 17:46:57:
As great as AM was in the 60's, and I can remember being a 5 year-old and loving "A Well Respected Man" and "Satisfaction," by the time the 70's started there was more and more dreck.
My vote for the nadir is "Timothy". Seems it had a curious origin, but it's still a terrible pop song about cannibalism. Of course find me a good song about cannibalism?
P.S. John, Thanks for introducing me to George Kaye and the Moscode 401HR at the HE 2005 (or 6?) I had a great decade with that machine.
