Shut down the mother truckers blockade with some of the worst songs in the history of music...
Let's all play along.
![]() New Zealand is playing Barry Manilow on a constant loop to annoy the truckers and keep them from blocking streets. I think this is a wonderful idea (sorry for those who live in the area) and I have a few suggestions as to songs that we & our neighbors to the north could play. I'll start, but I'm hopeful all of you can add to our playlist. Here we go: 1 "Tip toe thru the tulips" by Tiny Tim 2 "They're coming to take me away, ha ha" by Napoleon XIV 3 "Dead Skunk in the middle of the road" by Louden Wainwright III 4 "Does your chewing gum lose it's flavor on the bedpost overnight?" by Lonnie Donegan 5 "Muskrat Love" by Captain & Tennille and finally for me... 6 "Camp Grenada (hello Muddah, hello Faddow) Please add more, we could drive these fools nuts. ![]()

124. Or "You're Having My Baby" by the Hallelujah Tabernacle Choir!
If you don't recognize the reference, it's from the pilot episode of WRKP in Cincinnati:
As Johnny cues up The Hallelujah Tabernacle Choir singing "You're Having My Baby", the record jacket he's holding is actually a Capitol Records LP titles "Concerto Under the Stars" featuring pianist Leonard Pennario and conductor Carmen Dragon. Carmen Dragon was the father of keyboardist Daryl Dragon...the "Captain" of Captain and Tenille.

108. I was a jock on an FM top 40 station when most of those were hits.
Try playing Starland Vocal Band every 90 minutes. I couldn’t change the station; it was the only one coming out of the monitors. I was music director, too. That meant I had to move it from hot rotation to recurrents and keep it on the air, when even the sales people were sick of it.
They’d bitch, and I’d say “How do you think I feel? By the time most of this stuff becomes a big hit, I’m ALREADY sick of it.” |

17. I remember Noriega
"How The U.S. Military Used Guns N' Roses To Make A Dictator Give Up"
"Here's a small sampling of the playlist designed to send Noriega a musical message: "Give It Up," by K.C. And The Sunshine Band, "No More Mister Nice Guy," by Alice Cooper, and "Paranoid" by Black Sabbath. You get the drift. When the troops started coming in from the field, the requests became quite imaginative," it said in dry, military-speak. The favorites included "Welcome to the Jungle," by Guns N' Roses, "Wanted Dead Or Alive," by Bon Jovi, and "The End" by The Doors." "After several days on the run, Noriega was allowed to enter the Vatican Embassy on Christmas Eve. And on Christmas Day, the radio station broadcast only Christmas music. But with requests streaming in, the U.S. effort ramped up after the holiday." "On Dec. 27, "someone who identified himself as a member of the PSYOPS [Psychological Operations] team from Fort Bragg [N.C.] called to tell us what they were doing with their loud speakers," the military report said. U.S. Gen. Maxwell "Mad Max" Thurman had ordered speakers placed as a "musical barrier" around the perimeter of the Vatican Embassy and turned to full volume." "Noriega was reportedly partial to opera. What he got was "Panama," from Van Halen, "Danger Zone," from Kenny Loggins, and "Refugee," courtesy of Tom Petty. And remember, this was the '80s. So the strongman also got an earful of Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up," though that may have been intended more for Noriega's hosts at the embassy. As the standoff dragged on for days, the playlist became part of the story." "Not everyone was happy with the military's approach, including the White House, and the music was stopped after several days. President George H.W. Bush's national security adviser, Brent Scowcroft, said afterward that he thought the use of high-volume music was "undignified." "On Jan. 3, 1990, Noriega surrendered to the U.S. forces, though not until after he'd been treated to a version of "I Fought The Law." https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/05/30/530723028/how-the-u-s-military-used-guns-n-roses-to-make-a-dictator-give-up#:~:text=AP-,U.S.%20troops%20man%20a%20roadblock%20on%20Dec.,He%20surrendered%20on%20Jan. |

1. anything by Meatloaf
2. "Greatest love of all" by Whitney Houston (nothing against madame Whitney,she was uber fab, but this song is just horrible) 3. " Shake you down" by Gregory Abbott 4. "I can only Imagine" by MercyMe 5. "Ninja Rap" Vanilla Ice 6. Micheal Bolton "Sitting on the dock of the bay" 7. "you give love a bad name" Bon Jovi (Jon Bon Jovi is a stand up chap, and he helps the homeless. I just hate this fucking song, yet i will support his cause to the bitter end.) 8. "peekaboo" Siouxsie and the Banshees 9. "Puppy love" Donny Osmond 10. "Satan, bite the dust" Carman |

62. Whistling Jack Smith - "I Was Kaiser Bill's Batman" (1967)
I advise you NOT to click on the link and actually play the video.
You have been warned. Plus, anything by the Shaggs, such as "My Pal Foot Foot": ON EDIT: I'd like to add "Screw My Head" by one of my bands, Marshall Oboy & The Well Hungarians. Lead singer Marshall was a gay porn star. He was also known as "David Bowie's Singing Soundman" when he toured with Bowie and stood in at soundchecks as Bowie in place of The David. Anyway, I was the drummer on this ditty, and I could hear this on a loop for only so long before I would crack, or smoke crack, or something: |

Randomly change the speed at which the songs play while being played. Randomly skip ahead or behind by one second.

110. That's because the novelty usually wore off by the second listen.
And it usually wasn't enough of a novelty to make the first listen less painful, given how bad most of those songs were.
"Werewolves of London" was a novelty song, but you won't see it recommended as music to drive people away. It was much much better than any other novelty song I can think of...though Warren Zevon never expected it to be a hit and got really tired of it: https://medium.com/cuepoint/the-secret-inspiration-behind-warren-zevons-werewolves-of-london-4a5fa337a7f1 |
