I always thought the worst song on Plastic Ono Band was Look At Me.


Why that, if I may ask? I think it's a nice and peaceful song, a little similar to "Julia".

Tubular Bells from Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells is a terrible song. The album would have been better without that one.

If that song wasn't on the album you would have time to hear it thousand times every day, and still have time to hear other albums!

It's actually not a good song, but I think "La La Love You" and "no. 13" suck more!


WRONG WRONG WRONG. particularly about No. 13. The guitar solo at the end that sort of starts looping is one of my favorite moments in music EVAR.

I don't know, I think the singing is a bit annoying, but there's nothing bad with that instrumental section though. Not really a bad song, but there is so much better on that album!

Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others and Meat is Murder, both of which are conclusions to great albums. It's not so much the quality of the songs that I have a problem with, it's the fact that they are TERRIBLE conclusions. What makes it even worse is that the songs before them (There Is A Light Never Goes Out and Barbarism Begins At Home) are so good and would have made great conclusions for the albums. I just usually turn the album off after those songs.

Regarding the people who have mentioned Fitter Happier, Treefingers and On The Run, I'm torn on those songs. As stand-alone songs, they are awful. Treefingers and On The Run are FAR too long. Fitter Happier has no structure to it at all, just really a collection of phrases that satirise advertising slogans. However, in context of the whole album experience, they work very well as interludes. Both Treefingers and Fitter Happier are halfway markers for the album.
