Dave Barry wrote a whole book on this... Dave Barry's Book of Bad Songs. It was a highly scientific :) survey of his readers interpreted through his wonderful wisdom... and I have to admit it was good. The winner for worst song... song you don't want to get stuck in your head... almost unanimous. It's long (7 minutes), the lyrics don't make sense and it is so overdramatic, not to mention it was sung by an actor... MacArthur Park sung by Richard Harris (we love your acting)!!!
and the lyrics...
MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet, green icing flowing down...
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again
Need I say more???? Hope this song stays stuck in your brain for a while, I know it's going to haunt my dreams tonight.

DISCLAIMER: there are several wonderful jazz big band versions of this song!! However, even Stan Kenton's band made fun of it during the middle of the song when they sung a verse...

Bilbo, Bilbo, Bilbo Baggins, greatest little hobbit of them all!
You shall wake up, in the middle of the night, having nightmares involving Mr. Nimoy and Bilbo, Bilbo, Bilbo Baggins. Guaranteed! ;)
I have this album somewhere. No joke.

What is the most annoying song to have stuck in your head?
Okay, I was just watching Enchanted and now I have the song "That's How You Know" stuck in my head.

I've also made the mistake of listening to Britney Spears' "Womanizer" before a tour and then having the refrain stuck in my head all night.

That is pretty bad, but I can't see how it'd get stuck in my head. Perhaps I'm just lucky? :D

I know I'm not suppose to admit this, but I love that song even if it doesn't make any sense. The music is good.

I shall give my vote to Leonard Nimoy's classic, Bilbo Baggins. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XC73PHdQX04

I was forced to listen to listen to this song every day when I was younger. I had no choice. So, I can't get this song out of my mind. I do not know if it's so annoying, though, but when you hear it every day it could get to you. Crystal Waters - Gypsy Woman (She's Homeless)

Worst ever - the Brady Bunch song (cant even stand to find it) and your feature above. I hear this in my sleep when my 3 year old is snoozing.
