The thread title says it all.

What is the worst song (or songs) by some of your favorite artists?

You can include popular songs of theirs that you hated. Say Love In An Elevator by Aerosmith, for example. Then again, there are always the ill-advised singles that made it onto radio/video, seemed like a good idea at the time to the band but the public response to those singles was mostly negative.

Another idea is really dull album filler tracks that landed with a thud, stuff that just slows down the momentum of an album. That would obviously be stuff that was probably never played live by the band or released as a single. Perhaps something like Deep Purple's Mad Dog or AC/DC's Go Zone meets that criteria.

Then you always have the luxury of using later day songs by a given artist.

With that said, my opinion is the more liberal you are with artists the better. The thread asks for your "favorite" artists. However, I would hope that you'd also include artists who aren't your all-time favorites but those that you listen to at least casually.

Second Chance by .38 Special.Recorded by them after Don Barnes left and Max Carl(now in Grand Funk) joined the band
Sad thing is that Barnes is back in the band and they still play Second Chance as part of a medley.

HOT- lanta
Emotional Rescue by the Stones. I hate Mick's singing on this one.

Joe's Garage by Zappa. A lot of people love this one, but I've always thought it was fairly pedestrian...that kinda goes for the whole album, actually.

Ha Ha Said the Clown by the Yardbirds (the singer Keith Relf is the only actual Yardbird performing on this track). I really HATE this song! Its beyond description. Sad that it was their last single to chart.
