A discussion has started up in the Hot 100 thread about what the worst #1 (Hot 100) EVER was. Of the ones you know, what would you say is your least favorite HOT 100 #1 hit?

The first ones that sprung to mind were those awful Boyz II Men ones that stayed there for months. There were some deadful ones in the early to mid 70s too.
Having had a quick scan of Wikipedia, "(I've Had) The Time Of My Life)" would be up there too.

If Imagine had gone to #1, it's be my choice, but this or a lot of other stereotypical "unity" songs that read like they were written by a pre-schooler could fit.

It's really amusing looking at the comments for Disco Duck and seeing things like THIS IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN ANY MUSIC RELEASED TODAY.
Nostalgia is a powerful thing.

The only correct answer of the songs since 2000 is Laffy Taffy. I can't even consider that music.

Of all time, how about "My Ding A Ling", by Chuck Berry? It went to number one on the Hot 100 in October 1972, with heavy sales, but very little airplay. Could the chorus refrain "won't you play with my ding a ling" have had something to do with it? Things were alot different 39 years ago.

Laffy Taffy is worse than Crank That.
