I just think "Benjamins" is just a big joke.  There's a line in the song that says "Don't let the melody intrigue you (uh-uh)"...WHAT MELODY?!  There's one note being played throughout the whole f@#*!ng song.  P. Diddy's only talent is the ablility to regurgitate what's already been done and turn it into cRAP.

TV Tunes:
"The Song That Never Ends" from "Lamb Chop's Play Along".End Quote

I think that's a cute little tune and it shouldn't apply here in this thread because that particular theme is aimed at children.

If children think it's the best, by golly it is the best.  ;D

As far as the worst TV tune of the 90's, I'd pick the theme from "Home Improvement". <shudder>

We're getting a bit off topic here, though.

So maybe someone should start a worst TV tune of the 1990's thread if they care enough about the topic.  ;)

Re: WORST, WORST, WORST 90's song?

For today I'll choose "I'll Always Love You" by Whitney Houston. It was overrated and played ad nauseam. Plus, I like the original by Dolly Parton much better.

HOLY COW...I had almost purged that one from my memory before you had to bring it up.  I hated that song with a passion.  I just wanted to see those idiots ride their stupid bikes, or mopeds or whatever right into the path of a double decker tour bus.  His voice was so grating and the way they danced literally made me nauseous.  

For me it was that song called "The Way" I think it was fastback or something like that?  That and pretty much anything by the Offspring.

I agree here.  P.

BTW, I would nominate Lisa Stansfield among the '90s worst, worst, worst!  I used to cringe when that song would come over the radio, ""been around the world and I-I-I..." (ayi-yi-yi, that's awful!) :P
Another howler I used to hate at that time was Go West's "The King of Wishful Thinking," but I think that was actually released in '89.

Go West's "King of Wishful Thinking" was released in 1990 so yes it is a 90's song. I think it was a song that was on the "Pretty Woman Soundtrack".
