Audiogalaxy: Worst Songs by the Best Artists

What goes wrong when great musicians birth horrendously bad songs? We attempt to dissect "Dancing in the Street," "I Wanna Live in a Wigwam," and "Batdance" among others.

(excerpt...)
Prince: "Batdance"
It's hard to believe this was even a single. I mean, Prince is great, and even his stinkiest songs are a total blast to listen to, but "Batdance?" Did Warner Brothers really need to hire the author of "Pop Life" to fashion this lame-ass mix-tape collage of random quotes from Tim Burton's Batman? Couldn't they just have gotten a high school AV kid to dub it on his tape deck? Finally, does "Batdance" really need to drag on and on (and on) for seven joyless and insufferable minutes?

[This entire feature was funny, but I didn't agree with most of it. Ah well, clickthrough, read and discuss... -Ben]
