Worst Song Evah?



It seems nearly impossible that a band can put out such a clearly kickass song like "Eye of the Tiger" for Rocky 3 and then put out this steaming pile of gay shit. The lyrics are precious, each line a cornier cliche than the next. And yes Eye of the Tiger was a kick ass song (despite being in the gayest Rocky movie, evidence is at the below training scene when Rocky finally defeats Apollo Creed in a race on the beach ensuing in the gayest moment in cinematic history not involving Nathan Lane.) The really funny part in the water starts at about the 3:00 mark




High On You lyrics

There you stood, that'll teach ya
To look so good and feel so right
Let me tell you 'bout the girl I met last night
It's understood, I had to reach ya
I let the wheel of fortune spin
I touched your hand before the crowd
Started crushin' in
Now I'm higher than a kite
I know I'm gettin' hooked on your love
Talkin' to myself, runnin' in the heat
Beggin' for your touch in the middle
Of the street and I --
*I can't stop thinking 'bout you girl
I must be living in a fantasy world
I've searched the whole world over
To find a heart so true
Such complete intoxication
I'm high on you*
Smart and coy, a little crazy
The kinda face that starts a fight
Let me tell you 'bout the girl I had last night
Piercin' eyes, like a raven
You seemed to share my secret sin
We were high before the night
Started kickin' in
Now I'm screamin' in the night
I know I'm gettin' hooked on your love
Talkin' to myself, runnin' in the heat
Beggin' for your touch in the middle
Of the street and I -
