Nope. Its no Shiny Happy People. That song makes me consider suicide.

So it doesn't make you shiny or happy?

I would vote for "Afternoon Delight," but this version vindicates the track: Anchorman

I'd thought about the Eddie Murphy classic. But the truth the chorus is catchy. And the song is bad enough that its funny. Nope. Its no Shiny Happy People. That song makes me consider suicide.

SHP is the opposite of the Murphy song in the sense that EM's chorus is catchy and the rest of the song sucks, whereas SHP has excellent verses and bridge, and a train-wreck of a chorus. I can listen to SHP until they reach a chorus, so although it's bad, it's not "Girl is Mine" or "We Built This City" bad.

On your deathbed, you won't wish that you'd spent more time at the office. But you will wish that you'd spent more time running. Because if you had, you wouldn't be on your deathbed.

You know, the truth is I can't remember one lick of the rest of the song. Just that chorus. Which makes me want to climb a tower with a rifle.

No way. The original itself is a classic guilty pleasure, and the Anchorman bit just underscored its excellence. The genius of Afternoon Delight is that everyone one in America of all ages was singing along with that song, either oblivious to or ignoring the fact that it was all about scoring a nooner. It seemed so innocent, but it was all about shagging. No other song, with the exception of the Beatles "Please Please Me", has ever been so dirty yet received such widespread acceptance.

On your deathbed, you won't wish that you'd spent more time at the office. But you will wish that you'd spent more time running. Because if you had, you wouldn't be on your deathbed.

*gouging own eyes out* Thanks for the visual...guh Any mention of the 'hoff though harkens me back to "Baywatch". Which leads to thoughts of Pamela, the early years. nummers.

Just because running is simple does not mean it is easy.

Yes. As a very blonde woman I especially hate this song. Sounds more like 4 cats being tortured.

But as a hard-core Beatles fan, it pains me to say that there's one song at least as bad -- Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson's cringe-inducing duet, "The Girl is Mine." Maybe not a big enough hit to qualify for this list, but every time I've ever heard it, I've curled into a fetal position while screaming, "WHY, PAUL? WHY?"

Funny, with the exception of "Maybe I'm Amazed" I can't stand to listen to anything Paul did post-Beatles.
