My Personal Shitty Mix

I know I’m not going to win, and in fact I don’t want to because I’d much rather give someone else a t-shirt, but here’s my shitty mix just because it’s fun. The poll for voting on the mixes is over in the sidebar, and I encourage everyone to at least go skim the song titles - it’s hilarious. We have Frank Stallone, Hulk Hogan, and that baby French rapper in the mix. Hott. Vote for your favorites (or yourself), and have your friends, family and blackmail victims come vote for you as well, so you can claim your t-shirt! I want to be cheesy and thank everyone who took the time to play along with this, you guys are all so awesome. Plus I got a chance to peek in on friends of friends, which is always rad. Oh, Internet. Don’t forget: custom t-shirts by 60 Bugs hang in the balance! If you made a mix and I don’t have it listed in the poll, please send me a link! We’ll vote all week, so there’s time! If you want to add your mix as a late entry, bring it on! I’ll give you until midnight tonight!

Here’s mine:

bryan adams
01 Bryan Adams “Only Thing Looks Good on Me Is You” from Anthology, because who really gives a shit which album it originally appeared on?

onyx
02 Onyx “Slam” from Bacdafucup, because anytime you say “Bacdafucup”, you’re either sneezing or referring to Onyx.

rick astley
03 Rick Astley “Never Gonna Give You Up” from Whenever You Need Somebody, because uh, hello, maybe you’ve heard of him? Rick Fucking Astley?

aaron carter
04 Aaron Carter “Aaron’s Party (Come Get It)” from Aaron’s Party (Come Get It), because I wasn’t able to find the mp3 for “My Internet Girl, I Can See Her Voice”. (BTW if you can find that mp3 for me I’ll probably wet myself.)

bette midler
05 Bette Midler “Wind Beneath My Wings” from Some Craptacular Greatest Hits Collection, I’m Sure, because, well, it’s one of those songs that makes me want to stab my own eyeballs with rusty nails, y’all.

I am sooo glad I remembered Rick Astley. Things got tough, though, as I put my mix together songs I wanted to use kept popping up on other mixes! Everyone has such awesome taste in shit, it gets rough!

Well, of course I remember Rick Astley. But I think he broke his promise to never give us up, because I don’t hear from him that often. More excremental than him, however, is that Simply Red jerkwipe (due to self-seriousness) and that guy who sang “We Don’t have To Take Our Clothes Off (To Have a Good Time),” because everyone in junior high knew that was a filthy lie.

Nick Lowe put it best (in “All Men Are Liars”):

Do you remember Rick Astley?
He had a big fat hit that was ghastly.
He said I’m never gonna give you up or let you down.
Well I’m here to tell ya that Dick’s a clown
Though he was just a boy when he made that vow.
I’d bet it all that he knows by now.

Good call on the Rick Astley. I had thankfully forgotten about that song. Until now.

Chag,
Leave it to me to bring up old, terrifying memories.

I worked at a teen magazine when Aaron’s Party came out. We used to joke that it was obviously marketed to the pedophile demographic. That Bryan Adams song is truly terrible, might even be worse than “All For Love.” Kudos on the shittiness!

The Wonder Stuff were kind enough to put “Astley in the Noose” — couldn’t you have left him there?

Dude, I had no idea there was so much Astley-related hate out there. I was surprised, however, to see the Rick Astley 12 Inch Collection going for 40 + bucks on Amazon.

Do we really need to pay that much for the Cake remix of “Never Gonna Give You Up”?

Maybe so, maybe so.

Hilarious! I love this, and might have to sing a little “Wind Beneath My Wings” in your honor, the next time I do karaoke. :P

The summer that Aaron Carter song hit the airwaves, I was teaching dance to little girls aged 6-18. All. Summer. Long. Now whenever I hear that song, the screams of “Woo!” and the smell of scented body glitter spray come rushing back like a bad acid flashback. Blecch.
