Black Lace hit Agadoo, named the worst song of all time by a panel of music writers, is being re-released 25 years after it hit number two.

The song, kept off the top by George Michael's Careless Whisper in 1984, won the title in a 2003 Q magazine poll.

The video for Agadoo (Mambo 2009 remix) was directed by Bruce Jones, who played Coronation Street's Les Battersby.

No, I won't sink my dignity further by linking to the original song in question. :D

Incidentally, here's what it sounded like. :scream:
 
Oh geez...it's worse now than I remembered it to be.

It's like the disco verision of the Hokey-Pokey, played on an old Casio Synthesizer.

*shudder*

actually i kinda do... :p

Maybe it's because I don't remember it at all so it just sounds like a hokey kind of thing, but nothing that makes me want to shoot myself in the head. Although if it really went to #2 on the charts and was played a lot on the radio I could see the irritation.
 
There are worse things in life than Agadoo. Not many, like, but some. :D

I actually like it, but I like cheesy music and I'm a cheesy bastard in general. :techman:
