    Random thread. That song above is complete garbage. The Crazy Frog song springs to mind as another ridiculous number one.

    The correct question is how can that NOT get to number one?! It's amazing.

    As for songs that shouldn't have got to number one....

    Most of the songs that get to number one these days are terrible.

    I thought what makes you beautiful didn't get to number one? Nice sentiment in the lyrics though even if the song itself is meh.

    Bummer.

    Also another awful number one: Killing in the Name. Awful song, only reason anyone bought it was to make a point to Syco.

    I feel like I want to just post songs I dislike.

    My Dad always says how he hates "Killing Me Softly"

    Haven't listened to the charts for about 10 years so can't really remember what got to number 1. I can say at least 35 of the top 40 at the moment will be utter ****e

    It fades out to "**** you I won't do what you tell me" repeatedly, that's not exactly my cup of tea. I did however buy surfin' bird when there was the campaign to get that to Christmas Number 1 (only got to number 3 :()

    Also: Glad You Came by the Wanted, another rubbish song.

    As much as I dislike One Direction, I'd do what they do for the lifestyle they have
