Sorry 'bout the spelling - for some reason when I was a kid I always spelt it like that even though teachers and my parents told me it was wrong. To this day. if I'm not thinking then I always miss the e out.

Duh!

Although world In Motrion wasn't total crap it was the most overrated footie song of all time.

Virtually tuneless and featuring Barnesy's embarrassing "rap".  

It missed by a mile - a bit like Barnesy usually did when he was presented with a gold-plated scoring opportunity for England.

Maybe I will retract that last post, I've just had a quick look through my old 45s and found such gems as

Black Lace - Agadoo
Everton FC - 1985 Cup Final Single
St Winifreds School Choir - Grandma we love you (That one belongs to my husband!)

"Oh Julie" is definitely preferable to that one.

well i like some of the tunes here but i won't say which one's in case i get a slating.
the worst song i ever bought was "the birdy song" but in my defence i am a dj
so i had no choice.
and believe it or not people dance.

I tried not to buy novelty records - money was too tight to mention - but I did inadvertently get some rubbish when I bought a "lucky bag" of 4 singles. I could see the outside one was "The Monochrome Set" - Wallflower, which was worth the 50p anyway.
The other 3 were :
Steve Winwood - Freedom Overspill (not bad - but not good)
Vicious Rumour Club - Whole Lotta Love (rap version of the Led Zepp classic and TOTP theme for a while) this had DJ Cheif Double D scratching and William B Nice Fuqua ( ;D ) rapping - nice if you like that sort of thing.. Oh and the a side was the "tough edit" and the B side was the "alternative version" !.
The other was Raymond Froggatt - Don't Let Me Cry Again, a typical C & W offering with all the usual ingredients.
Of the 3 this was the worst 80's record that I've bought.

I still have all of them- if anybody wants a copy ?  ;D
