purplethunder3121 said: The song stinks, but, I have to admit, it's kinda cool when this regular bloke from England kicks Michael Jackson's highly anticipated, much hyped single "Bad" off the # 1 position after just one week and stays there comfortably for I-don't-know how many weeks. It just goes to show that in 1987 maybe, just maybe, all those crazy stories surrounding Michael Jackson were starting to work against him and people were ready for a more down to earth artist, a boy/girl next door that they could relate to. Say whatever you want about Stock, Aitken and who's-that-man, but they surely knew what people wanted to hear back in the 1980s... Simple tunes that you could dance to... Not much has changed...

This number one song was cheesy enough to make me want to vomit, but between my local radio station and MTV overplaying it to death, I almost committed suicide just to stop the pain.

I was also going to nominate The Cheeky Girls' "Cheeky Song (Touch my Bum)", but I checked and it 'only' reached #2 in the UK. (Failed to chart in the USA and Canada.) A UK Channel 4 poll in 2004 voted it the worst song of all time.

Joy Gruttmann - Schnappi, das kleine Krokodil

Theme song for a childrens TV show called Schnappi, das kleine Krokodil (Snappy The Little crocodile). Went number one in Belgium, Austria, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden and Switzerland for several weeks.

It didn't chart in USA. The song is hard to listen to, but Joy Gruttmann does sound very cute. It was recorded in 2001 when she was five and became a hit in 2004.
