"I Got You Babe," anything by Peter Frampton and "Desperado."
Capt. & Tennille's Muskrat Love as mentioned above, could be the all-time worst, not just the 70's. I still don't know what that song's about exactly, and I'm not sure I want to.

Man there's some blasphemy on this thread!
And no one has even mentioned "Kung Fu Fighting" or Donna Summer's cover of "McArthur Park".
I agree, but Webb said in a Fresh Air segment that the very line you quoted is one of his biggest regrets. Apparently the near rhyme bothers him.Originally Posted by RedsBaron
Terri Gross was incredulous. So was I. I'd love to be able to write bad lines like that.

Agreed. I still remember those Pirate wifes dancing on the dugout. I had hopes for that team. Seaver pitched just well enough to lose.Originally Posted by RedBloodedAmerican

Ooh my little pretty one, pretty one.
When you gonna give me some time, Sharona?
Ooh you make my motor run, my motor run.
Gun it comin' off the line Sharona
Never gonna stop, give it up.
Such a dirty mind. Always get it up for the touch
of the younger kind. My my my i yi woo. M M M My Sharona...
Come a little closer huh, ah will ya huh.
Close enough to look in my eyes, Sharona.
Keeping it a mystery gets to me
Running down the length of my thighs, Sharona
Never gonna stop, give it up. Such a dirty mind.
Always get it up for the touch
of the younger kind. My my my i yi woo. M M M My Sharona...
When you gonna give it to me, give it to me.
It is just a matter of time Sharona
Is it just destiny, destiny?
Or is it just a game in my mind, Sharona?
Never gonna stop, give it up.
Such a dirty mind. Always get it up for the touch

Frank Pulli's blown call of Dave Collins' catch of a fly ball in Game 2 cost the Reds that game. If Pulli makes the correct call, the series goes to Pittsburgh for Game 3 tied at one game apiece. Instead, the disheartened Reds were swept.Originally Posted by Mutaman
It would have been interesting to see how that series might have turned out if the correct call had been made. We might never have had to witness that silly dancing to that horrible song.
Help stamp out, eliminate, and do away with redundancy.
Completely agree, RB. Can't understand how one of the best songs of all time could be included on a worst songs list.Originally Posted by RedsBaron
I'm scratching my head on that too.Originally Posted by RFS62
"Rock On" by David Essex is the worst song of the 70's
School's out. What did you expect?
As for the subject of the thread, I love 70s music (bought the entire AM Gold - Sounds of the 70s series from Time-Life ), but I must confess that there are many good candidates for this thread.
Far too often...

Besides "Bridge over Troubled waters" was released in 1969.

"Rock and Roll Part 1" by Gary Glitter actually is the worst song ever.
