Name songs from the 70s that you think "sucks"

I was wondering is there some songs from the 1970's that anyone dont like?There are some that I dont like. Kung Fu Fighting by Carl Douglas, Disco Duck Rick Dees , Last Dance Donna Summer, I Feel Love Donna Summer and Shame Evelyn "Champaign" King( although I like some her later songs).

"Disco Duck" is atrocious, but it is supposed to be a novelty hit.

Ummm I think Dr. Hook sucks... "Sylvia's Mother" barf

Some of it can get pretty cheesy cheese like Lobo.

I hate "Lido Shuffle" by Boz Scaggs. mad

I can't even front, I geek out to Lobo once in a while too. nod

For an era I never lived through, alot of 70s stuff sounds so damn nostalgic.

As this is considered Canadian content on the radio stations up here, I have had overkill on this song throughout my lifetime.


I think there is a difference between overkill vs. songs that sucked from the get-go.

like... I'm sure sick of Chi-Lites "Oh Girl" but doesn't mean it SUCKS.

That stupid "...desert on a horse with no name..." song. I don't even know who sings it, but it's got the stupidest lyrics.

Also, the Ethel Merman disco album is a nightmare.

it's by America.

I like "Ventura Highway" more, but their lyrics are kinda dumb.

that was done by a group called america back in 1972. and f'real, you hate that song? i like it, but mostly because of the music and the fact that i grew up hearing it a lot.

Also, the Ethel Merman disco album is a nightmare.

it seems like a good majority of the disco albums made by established stars were nightmares. that reminds me, james brown's "too funky in here" is just SO corny...but i like it. the women singing the hook in the chorus crack me up for some reason.

teeeeew fun-kay, fun-kay in hee-aaaaah...
