Subject: Sappiest, Cloying, most annoying Ballads
Written By: woops on 02/13/08 at 6:48 pm
Though anything from Barry Manilow, Celine Dion, Michael Bolton, Backstreet Boys, and about all of the listed acts would be considered horrible
As for Tiffany, it's not because I'm a fan or 'you know who', but because her voice sounded horrible

I'll take Debbie Boone for $200, Alex.
Gawd, I hate that f*cking song. It makes me want to rip my eardrums out.

I had to go with Blunt. That is the most awful song I have ever heard.

Debbie Boone. I can't stand that song. It was #1 in both the US and Canada on the day I was born >:(

Wow, even though I'm a ballad fan generally speaking, I pretty much detest all of those. Yeah I'd agree with Blunt being the worst, lol.
The only ones I DO like are "I Want it That Way" and "Oh Sherrie" (cheesy but fun '80s).

While I can't tolerate anything on that list except the Anita Baker tune, I chose "other".
Everything I Do, I Do It For You by Bryan Adams makes me wretch :P every damn time I hear it!

Tsk! De Blurgh's 'Lady In Red' didn't even make the cut?
Not worth voting, then... ;)

Still though, you gotta give him points for being the first non Hip-Hop or American Idol contestant to have a #1 sense 2002.

Ha ha, definitely a contender . . . though I love to listen to him struggle through those high notes.
I voted 'Without you' by Nilson. As painful to listen to as 'All by myself' . . .
