00:0010 Terrible Rock Songs That No One Wants To Remember
00:0310. The Who. Did You Steal My Money?
00:08The Who's 1981 new wave experiment feels jittery and incoherent.
00:12Failed as a single, now a curious transitional artifact.
00:159. Bruce Springsteen, Real Man.
00:19Synth-heavy 1992 cut lacked Springsteen's narrative grit.
00:23The song was seldom played live despite human touch's strong sales and charting.
00:278. Led Zeppelin, T for One.
00:32A 9 minutes and 27 second blues workout from Presence unfavorably compared to superior predecessors.
00:39Repetitive and subdued, it was largely avoided despite the album's success.
00:447. Bob Dylan, Wiggle Wiggle.
00:48Dylan's 1990 opener favors playful phonetics over depth.
00:52The album went gold, yet this remains an anomalous misstep.
00:558. The Clash. We Are The Clash.
01:00Post-McJones, this 1985 title track sounds thin and forced.
01:05Strummer disowned it, and the album underwhelmed despite reaching number 16 on the UK charts.
01:109. Pink Floyd, It Would Be So Nice.
01:14Richard Wright's 1968 pop psychedelic single, Struggled Post-Barrett.
01:20Simplistic and conventional, peaking at number 79 on the UK charts amid transitional uncertainty.
01:269. The Police, Mother.
01:30Summers' discordant 1983 synchronicity track polarized fans.
01:34With an unsettling theme and experimental vocals highlight peak era creative tensions.
01:3810. Elvis Presley, In Confidence.
01:43From the Clambake soundtrack, this 1967 track is void of Presley's spark.
01:49With a thin arrangement and weak impact, the album peaked at number 40 on the Billboard charts,
01:54reflecting decreasing commercial interest in Presley's soundtrack material.
01:58Number 2. Chuck Berry, My Ding-A-Ling.
02:03Berry's 1972 novelty with double entendres became his only number 1 and gold-certified record,
02:09yet critics dismiss its artistic merit.
02:12Number 1. Brian Wilson, Smart Girls.
02:17Wilson's 1991 sweet insanity rap experiment felt incongruous.
02:21Warner rejected it, later dismissed as a joke.
