Worst BSB song ever

[erilyn]

In this post, I referred to the AIHTG remix as the worst song ever. trumpeterofdoom challenged this, bringing up If You Want It To Be Good Girl. As much as I love the Boys, they do have some truly awful songs lurking in their past. And this sort of situation definitely calls for a poll!

The Contenders
+ All I Have To Give (Part II - The Conversation Mix)
+ Boys Will Be Boys
+ If You Want It To Be Good Girl (Get Yourself A Bad Boy)

If you're not familiar with them, download, suffer, then vote!

[Poll #556169]

Hey, Boys Will Be Boys is good crack! What could be better than Boys telling you that their hearts start pumping whenever you're around? Or senses going overdrive? Yay for hormone-driven songs and corresponding cracky choreography!

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Sorry, I'm with the people who refer to Boys Will Be Boys as the date rape songs ;) To me, If You Want It To Be Good Girl is the good crack.

I can't believe I have to choose between the Conversation Mix and the Date Rape Song for worst ever. I think they're pretty much equal, but voted for Conversation Mix because it goes on longer...IIRC and I'm not about to actually listen to them to find out. *g*

I can't believe I have to choose between the Conversation Mix and the Date Rape Song for worst ever.

Isn't it hard? I eventually went with the Mix as there's just no excuse for that kind of weirdness, while unfortunately, there are often date rape-ish songs (not that it makes it any better).

And really, people mock Riddle, but I don't think it approaches the badness of either of them.

I'm sorry, but Mom You Always Were the Greatest Fan makes me gag everytime I hear it, and not just because of Jane. The only other one that even comes close to that is What Makes You Different Makes You Beautiful. The sap factor is just too overwhelming.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Don't tell anyone, but I like What Makes You Different Makes You Beautiful. And How Did I Fall in Love With You (aka Howie's lovesong to Nick). Apparently I'm Dorough's bitch when it comes to incredibly sappy songs ;)

I like What Makes You Different Makes You Beautiful
Me tooooooooo.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Yay! But I'm on my own with HDIFILWY? *g*

[adelate]

I can't really comment on that - I'm not sure if I've heard it!

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Oh, was "How Did I Fall In Love With You" a bonus track on Black and Blue or something?

The file was blocked. :P But you're right, it is on Black & Blue! Oops. It's been a long time since I've listened to it last.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I wondered after I posted it, I've seen people mention that files with 'backstreet boys' in the name get blocked. Interesting :)

[withdiamonds.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry. I won't tell a soul. :)

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I'll be buying his solo album of English and Spanish should-be-non-gender-specific love songs if he ever does it, that's for sure *g*.

[withdiamonds.livejournal.com]

I might have to pass on that one.

I do, however, adore your icon.

Theirloveissoshort!!!

The Boys themselves have gone on record as hating the Bad Boy one, but that doesn't mean they love the other contenders in this poll. How to choose, how to choose...

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

They really hate If You Want It To Be Good Girl, they've talked smack about it several times *g*.

[plastiqueallure.livejournal.com]

But really. If you like it innovative, better find someone creative. You can't beat that with a stick. They HAD to know that would NEVER die.

[nafs]

Dude. If You Want it to be Good is the best cheese *ever*. It broke my heart when they kept nominating it as worst song during the Chapter One interviews. The Date Rape Song never fails to make me sick to my stomach.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I just assumed they'd repressed the date rape song and didn't count the Conversation Mix as a real song *g*.

[shirasade]

Well, I personally have always loved the Bad Boy song - because it never fails to make me crack up manically, no matter where I am. But the AIHTG Conversation Mix just makes me cringe in embarrassment...

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Interesting to hear the different reactions to the songs ;)

[not-nele.livejournal.com]

I cannot even stand to listen to the AIHTG convo mix. The other ones I can at least tune out and hear nice singing. No diggity. AhahaHAHAHAhahaheehee... sorry.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I'd love to know the reasoning behind the mix - it's just so fucking bizarre!

[between-names.livejournal.com]

I am actually quite fond of If You Want It To Be Good Girl :D

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Nice icon *g*. And it makes me laugh, while the other two are painfully cringe-inducing.

[turlough]

BWBB and Bad Boy are very silly but still fun to listen too if you suspend your disbelief a little. AIHTG the CM is just painful!

[hegemony.livejournal.com]

EXACTLY. I can't help but thinking that they really were laughing their asses off during the recording process of Bad Boy. It was the only song that struck with middle school aged girls, though. Now THAT Was a memory.

The conversation mix makes me want to laugh, then go on a shooting rampage. It goes best with Gran theft auto.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Ok, that wins for best reaction to the Mix *g*.

[caitinlv.livejournal.com]

The Perfect Fan makes me break out in hives.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

You're not the first person to vote for it - I never realised the reaction it has one some people :)

[xoverau.livejournal.com]

See, I love If You Want It To Be Good, Girl. They're trying to be drrrty! It's fab.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

At least it's boppy and more fun than the other two (and has that weird instrument noise, what is that, a kazoo?) *g*.

[adinasauce.livejournal.com]

I've always hated Anywhere for You. Mostly because of the video. BIKES. WTF.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Certainly that's their most boring video *fittingly, it's a boring song) for me :)

[mtb1002.livejournal.com]

I can't even get through the AIHTG conversation mix. That's just ten kinds of horrible all rolled into one. :)

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I haven't listened to the whole thing in a long long time either ;)

[evlarin.livejournal.com]

...I had a really hard time deciding, to be honest. But the Conversation Mix at least left me shrieking with laughter, while I was literally cringing a couple times while listening to Get Yourself a Bad Boy. ^.^; Something about the transition-music, maybe....

I agree that Howie's trying way too hard to sound heterosexual in the Conversation Mix, though. ^.^; Yikes. ^.^;

*runs and hides, just in case erilyn decides to take it personally* ^.~

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Nah, the only poll I've taken personally was all the people who voted Never Gone as their least favourite track on the album (I love that song!) *g*.

[sariah8.livejournal.com]

I must be one of those creepy fans that loves "If You Want It To Be Good Girl (Get Yourself a Bad Boy)"

haha.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

It's bad in a good way for me, unlike Boys will be Boys, which is just bad ;)

[rikes]

This post&poll&comments amuse me A LOT. And it's almost midnight. Hi! *waves and goes away*

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I'm glad they amused you, they sure as hell amused me *g*.

[rikes]

Maybe you should do a poll about the worst nsync song ever?

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I might have to make it open to anything, I can't think of something to put up against Riddle *g*.

[rikes]

Well first you have to ask for nominations and then make the poll based on those! ;)
