Music: NZ Music Month

Submitted by BIMI on 5 May, 2006 - 8:50am.

Ok, I'm slightly curious as to how this guy came up with this!  Anyway, in the Dom Post this morning they have come up with a list of Kiwi songs that apparently make us cringe ...

I'll start with number 10, being True Bliss "Tonight" ... no complaints from me here!  Eye-wink

9:  Shona Laing "I Love My feet"

8: Satellite Spies "Destiny in Motion"

7: Ben Lummis "They Can't Take That Away"  ... uh hello!!!  Whatever!!!  Sticking out tongue

6: Suzanne Paul "The Blue Monkey"

5: The Knobz "Liverpool to America"

4: Monte Video "Shoop Shoop Diddy Wop Cumma Cumma WAng Dang"

3: Dave and the Dynamos "Life Begins at Forty"

2: Steve Allen "Join Together"

and the number 1 song that apparently makes a cringe ...

1: All of Us "Sailing Away"

What do you guys think, anyway? 

(Just thought it was a good conversation starter anyway ... hee hee!)

How can Sailing Away be a cringe song?

It hasn't been played for 15 years

The Blue Monkey was a joke when it came out. Everyone would fake Suzanne's accent and mock it. The video was enough to make you cringe all day.

Massive FAIL!

I've heard three of these songs, so I really wouldn't know.

Except They Can't Take That Away makes me cringe, so maybe this list is correct.
