Which song is the worst?

Post by YankoSwag 8888 »

I have taken Al's top 27 worst selling songs on iTunes (from worst to best). I want to know what Al's worst song of all time is. (I like most of these songs) My personal least favorite song in Al's catalog is Traffic Jam.

I went with That Boy Could Dance, but a few years ago we did a Worst Song Tournament and the final two were "Girls Just Wanna Have Lunch" and "Gotta Boogie".

I went with She Was A Mime cuz it's to long and it has bad lyrics. I might do a best song poll based on iTunes.

There's a huge difference between "worst" and "least commercially viable". Like, of course Let Me Be Your Hog is one of the worst selling, it's 17 seconds long and you'd have to be a complete idiot to spend $1.69 on that when there's 5 songs on the same album that are 10 times as long for the same price.

It also stands to reason why there's nothing from Alpocalypse on there, the Internet Leaks experiment would have driven sales numbers up for each single that wouldn't necessarily have done quite as well had it been released on the complete album.
Sever your leg, please. It's the greatest day.
