Word to the wise
Never read an article entitled "Worst hit song of all time." My brain is now a battleground of Grace Slick proclaiming how "we built this city" over the trumpeting of how fine Mickey is according to Toni Basil. How easily suggestible I am.
But for the life of me, I can't figure out why people hate "Macarthur Park." I know it's over the top, but--IMO--in a good way.
I remain convinced that worst song ever is "My Humps." It may be hard to have perspective on such a recent hit, but I predict that 10, 20 years from now, "My Humps" will be the song everone correctly regards as the worst of all time.
By the way, my verification word is "hotrmy," which strikes me as sounding dirty.

Yes, that's terrible. As is "Honey."
