Sister Christian

Here's another one of those songs that's so hard to love. Every ounce of my soul tells me to sing, "MOTORING!" while every ounce of my brain tells me they phoned this one in.

Step By Step

Here is a song about the steps to get a chick. There are five steps of which none are actual steps. They're actually reasons for the chick to get with one of the new kids. Now that I look at it there are four reasons and a question. "Don't you know that the time is right?" Right for what? Step one? A girl could argue that she can have fun with her uncle but that doesn't mean she wants to date him.

Ready To Go

Burning out after three years of playing this song at theme parks around the world they decided to get back together in 2010. How did they show the world that they still had what it took to rock everybody with their unique sound? By writing and recording a hit song. Unfortunately that hit song was "Ready To Go."

Here Comes The Hotstepper

I wasn't going to do requests but this one is just too bad to ignore. How can he know what Bo don't know when Bo knows everything?

You Spin Me 'Round

So they spin you around like a record? That's only about 33rpm? They're really just turning you around. If somebody were to spin you it would be more like a CD. Of course they didn't really have CD's back then so maybe they spin you around like a tape rewinding...

Urgent

This is what happens when the writers of "Cold As Ice' quickly threw together a song. The best parts of this song are the work of Thomas Dolby. SCIENCE!

Jump

At 14 you're anything but a daddy mac or mac daddy. This redundant hip hop song was good enough to get them an encore in a music video where Michael Jackson plays basketball against Michael Jordan. Whatchou talking 'bout Kris Kross?

I Just Called To Say I Love You

Stevie Wonder knows how to write a great song. He must have forgotten how on the day he wrote this.

YMCA

This is more of a commercial but it's still a crap song. This tune has the power to remove all the good dancers from the dance floor while simultaneously replacing them with all the bad ones.

Physical

I'm not sure what to think of this. I know I hate it but I can't put my finger on why. I can't really criticize the video because it's crappy SONG of the day. Perhaps I hate it because it's catchy and it sucks. Perhaps I hate it because I like it. Today's song was going to be Cher's "Turn Back Time" but that I gave it a listen and that song rules.
