10 Catchiest Rock Songs That Suck

4. Butterfly – Crazy Town (1999)

The catchiest part of this track was a riff sampled from the Red Hot Chili Peppers number, Pretty Little Ditty. This song is anything but pretty, however.

A video of shirtless f**k boys flaunting their tattoos as they prance about bothering a bunch of sexy rock fairies... , it was a weird way to sell the single. The song posed as a tender expression of love, but only served to reveal a juvenile obsession with female tongue rings and girls with "sex appeal". Just about every lyric betrays the band's in-ate obsession with "gettin' sprung", and any romantic sentiment becomes lost in the stench of bro postering.

If American Pie's Steve Stifler composed a similar rock-rap track, even he would struggle to cram in as many cringe worthy references to coitus as these guys. It's like a bunch of sex crazed adolescents who collectively witnessed their first breast, and were so inspired that had to write a nu-metal love ballad about it.

Man, this song sucks, once it's in your head good luck getting it out. Apologies.
