Their songs don't suck enough

Driving stresses me out. If there were no other cars on the road it would be fine. Sadly everyone else think they get to drive when it's my turn. I haven't been able to convince them otherwise.

Unfortunately the geography near my home is also under heavy construction for the forseeable future.

Between the cars and the Caterpillars and the sweaty guys in orange ODOT vests, driving around here is a pain in the ass.

To relieve this stress I have found that singing along to the radio helps. It seems to relax me.

Last evening on one of the local pop stations, the local DJ crew was chattering between songs about Blogcritics Top 13 most overrated songs of all time.

Their top 5:

1. American Pie-Don McClean
2. Light My Fire-The Doors
3. Free Bird-Lynyrd Skynyrd
4. Hey Ya!-Outkast
5. Pour Some Sugar On Me-Def Leppard

That's the best they could do? Please. The most overrated song of all time has to be Together Forever by Rick Astley. That song makes me want to pull my eardrums out through my nostrils. It's just that bad.

And what about Macarena by Los Del Rio? It's like nails on a chalkboard.

For posterity's sake, here are my top 5 most overrated songs of all time:

1. Together Forever-Rick Astley (UGH)
2. Achy Breaky Heart-Billy Ray Cyrus
3. Macarena-Los Del Rio
4. Ice Ice Baby-Vanilla Ice
5. Joanna-Kool and the Gang

Now THAT is a proper list of suck ass music.

Please feel free to contribute your suggestions for additions to this list in comments.
