Members rasputin1963 Posted November 6, 2010 Members Share Posted November 6, 2010 This may be the stupidest song ever written. Opportunistic novelty records like this one gave a bad name to the whole Disco movement (when there were some truly exciting and worthy Disco records out there) Stick around for Rick Dees' commentary at the end of this clip.

Members rasputin1963 Posted November 6, 2010 Members Share Posted November 6, 2010 To my way of thinking, a truly bad song is unintentionally funny or reprehensible or corny or otherwise unconvincing. It was intended by its writers/singers to be serious. Which is why my two "woman's plaint" songs above are so campily funny. "Disco Duck", above, to the degree that it was calculated to be cute or funny, to my way of thinking, is maybe not truly in the category of Le Bad. Now THIS is Le Bad: cd_Fdly3rX8 P.S. My favorite online radio station, LUXURIA MUSIC, plays a lot of "Le Bad" from the 50's, 60's and 70's. The whole station is kind of a postmodern "in joke" for Boomers.

Rap has become a caricature of itself. About every song could be a parody.

Members ggm1960 Posted November 7, 2010 Members Share Posted November 7, 2010 I remember buying this Rick Derringer LP back in high school and thinking this was perhaps the most retarded song I'd ever heard....

Members rasputin1963 Posted November 8, 2010 Members Share Posted November 8, 2010 "Convoy" is embarrassing not just because the CB radio phenomenon was so transitory... but because it plays upon a certain trusted intimacy it expects its audience to share with the singer... That kind of "anticipated and expected intimacy" now feels like a corny element of a more simple time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That kind of "anticipated and expected intimacy" now feels like a corny element of a more simple time... I'm certain the whole trucker/CB craze thing came about in response to the nationally imposed 55 mph speed limit. That put some serious hurt on the trucking industry and many normally law abiding citizens found themselves in conflict with the law. People felt a sense of solidarity with truckers. The Smokey And The Bandit movie was a huge hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
