worst title has gotta be "Jerry Likes My Corn." (GG)
(didn't like the song either...)

Anything penned by Frank Wildhorn.

Re 1776

It is an unconventional score with no stand out songs. All the songs are plot driven. If you take it in that context, the score fits the show perfectly

"Much of the score fronm 1776 is forgetable"

Oh god, "Big Dog" from The Color Purple. Ugh.

Not a big fan of "A Sentimental Man".

a LOT of "Annie Get Your Gun" irks me, especially "Who Do You Love, I Hope?" that song gives me shivers and not in the good sort of way

"Poor Jude is Dead" from Oklahoma

I'm going to have to agree with Little Lamb. Any of the Wizard's songs from Wicked are bad.

I can't believe most of the ones you all listed as worst EVER. Come on, you really gotta consider all the terrible ones throughout the course of Broadway.

One of them, however has GOT to be "Think of Meryl Streep" from Fame: The Musical. And I mean EVER.

The person who put who do you love i hope makes me laugh. I recently played that show, and the song really did bite...it was really fun to play though, but I guess I see your point.

Almost everything from The Music Man... except for 76 trombones.

Granted I haven't heard every musical OCR, but I hate all the music in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.

Aw, am I the only one who likes Little Lamb?

But I hate Something Bad.

Mame from Mame.

Something Bad from Wicked.

[ActualReality2]

"Something Bad" is a truly awful song

[GoSmileLaughCryClap]

When Mabel Comes In The Room. As the ghosts of Dolly and Mame hover, air is continually pumped into a flat tire containing a gaping hole.

The saving grace was the balloon handed to Mabel as she stepped on a crane as it miraculously lifted her in the air.

But that was great staging in a wooden song. And the song was duly pulled apart by most of the critics when it opened.

I second "Think of Meryl Streep" from Fame.

Aw, I love Hurry Back and Mame!
