10 Addictively Bad Love Songs

Jansen Musico | Published: Feb 9, 2010 - 7:00am


"I Would Do Anything for Love" by Meat Loaf

Cheesiness: Laughs:

Why it's addictive: Its flawless transitions from a dreary ballad to a chaotic mess, reminiscent of Meat Loaf's Rocky Horror days, give it an odd catchy quality.

Why it's bad: It's a painfully long lyrical rollercoaster (12 minutes on mp3) sung by a man who swears that he would do anything for love, but he won't do... well, we're not sure what exactly, but he did keep repeating it the whole duration of the song.

Our favorite line: "I would do anything for love, but I won't do that."


"Always" by Erasure

Cheesiness: Laughs:

Why it's addictive: If its repeated airplay in the early '90s didn't get you hooked, it was probably the Universal Motion Dancer's (UMD) smooth moves that made you a fan.

Why it's bad: Do we really need to explain why? Just dance. We bet you still know the steps. But if you're one of those poor souls who don't know how to do it, watch and learn.

Our favorite lines: "Always, I wanna be with you and make believe with you and live in harmony, harmony. Oh love."

    death to POGI bands! at par with the garbage in the international scene.

    Journey should be there and Air Supply. But I have good memories from them. They were lullabies that put me to sleep when I was was a wee bit kid....

    I don't think the bands champoy mentioned are just "pogi" bands. They actually have really nice songs that can be considered at par with international singers. Besides, as for the cliche lyrics, almost every songs have this even international singers.

    hey kids! how about journey? and i totally agree with air supply hehehe

    ...Yah, 2nd the motion, bakit walang air supply!!! I get bombarded with Air Supply hits everytime I ride the bus going to work.

    ...Songs from Celine Dione, Jessa and Meatloaf are also top favourites in your local Beerhouse and KTV Disco Theatre.

    ..I think Spot should also make a list for this hehehehehe.

    Naalala ko nung sumikat yung lecheng hale song na yan. I wanted to kill myself whenever I was stuck hearing that song in public transportation. I wanted to jump off the jeep/bus. Kaya napilitan tuloy akong bumili ng mp3 player just to avoid being stuck listening to that song in public places. "she's already taken, she's already taken, she's already taken me!!!" Arghhh, what an awful band. What awful, awful lyyrics! Tapos nauso pa yung Callallily, Spongecola, Cueshe, 6cyclemind etc. Dapat talaga bawiin na ang karapatang nating mga pinoy na bumoto. dapat martial law na. Malapit na siguro ang apokalipsis.

    Arggh, sorry for the long rant. I just hate those "pogi" bands.
