Jazzmoose Posted February 20, 2005 Report Share Posted February 20, 2005 I voted for "tie", with the assumption that the 'etc.' included 'this song is so frickin' bad it makes my ears bleed and those repsonsible should be first up against the wall when the revolution comes, especially Don Kirchner, of course'; if not let me know, I'll need to change my vote...

Harold_Z Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 Pickett gets my vote. I love the explicit drug referances in "Sugar Sugar". I mean like it's hipper than "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds" !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John L Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 (edited) I love the Wicked One, but I have trouble getting with him on Sugar, Sugar. I'll have to go with the Archies as well. They have a dorky enough sound to go along with the composition. They succeed in putting the bubble in the gum. (I would be scared to chew the shit after Pickett got finished with it.)

Chrome Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 There's this interesting/kitschy disc called something like "Saturday Morning's Greatest Hits" with a bunch of indie-types doing cartoon songs ... Ramones do the Spider-Man theme, Juliana Hatfield/Tanya Donnelly () do "Josie and the Pussycats," etc. and Mary Lou Lord/Semisonic do "Sugar, Sugar" in a way that's pretty catchy.
