Corny Songs That Are "Good"

"Corny" songs that the fans think are "Good"

Off the top of my head:

Christopher Tracy's Parade

Gold

Pussy Control

Jack U Off

Darling Nikki

Sister

Cream

That song has a sophisticated orchestral arrangement which precludes it from being
corny as a musical composition. Lyrically? Well, maybe. . .

Would not consider Christopher Tracy's Parade, Darling Nikki or Sister corny at all. The only one that tests positive for the corn is Gold.

Seriously "Gold" is amazing, one of his best songs from that decade, the 90s.. music

"So Strong" — Dale Bozzio
a lollipop masterpiece.

"Strays Of The World"
Can't get cornier than that.

"Good Love"
4th of July in every stroke, a symphony of light and sound.

I like that song. shrug

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

I agree. This is a silly game. You either like a song or you don't.

I still like Love U In Me, but that line "I begged for a kiss, she gave me seven. Our lips touched and it felt like heaven" is pretty cringe worthy. It's like poetry an 11 year old girl would write.

Ow, no... It's sweet.

The chord progression saves it.
And you got to love the vocal performance.

I strongly disagree, Stranger.

Yeah, but it's corny elevated as art,
so it doesn't qualify.

God and Free are both corny to my ears. I doubt those lyrics would get a pass if he released them these days.

Good choices. Free is so overrated on the Org. And out of place on 1999.
