Favorite song from a band you know sucks

Don't know if the band sucks or not because I've never heard any of their other stuff but...

 

I love that song. Also, Cake is fun as hell.

 

Eurotrash Girl by Cake is a great song.

 

I've heard that loads of times and had no idea who the artist was or what it was called. Fun song.

 

I like the Cracker version. It was great in concert in 1994.

 

The lead singer reminds me of Buster Scruggs.
My favorite parody band is, without doubt, Southern Culture on the Skids. Perhaps you southerners think otherwise.

 

About 90% of the bands y'all are referencing from the 80s I saw in concert, even the most obscure of the lot.

As for playing songs over and over, when I was in the Navy, we had a two-cassette deck stereo in our work space. I had a couple of shipmates who loved Damn Yankees. They had two cassettes played on loop ... one after another. After about two months of it, one night on watch, I threw both of them over the side. I'm sure somewhere in the Atlantic they are still floating around.

 

This is the winner. Nickelback both sucks and blows but this is a damn great song.

 

Damn it, @Driftwood, those unspooled and choked a turtle to death. Fucker.

 

I like Steve Miller's "Jet Airliner" but the original version of "Jet Airliner" by Paul Pena is a banger.

Steve Miller was a sneaky fucker. Through a mutual friend, he heard the original version by Pena which was unreleased at the time. He loved it and recorded it before Pena's version ever came out. I'm sure Pena made some nice coin off the residuals.

 

To paraphrase his song, Miller took the money and ran.

I saw a documentary once about Pena's pilgrimage to Tuva to learn throat singing. There are some clips from it on YT.
