Poll: Which Is The Best Song On The Shop's Playlist On Wednesday Morning

[Dr. Medulla]

Hello,

I have never understood the song Africa by Toto. Is there anything suggestive of Africa or anything African (aside from the word Africa in the title and lyrics) in the song? Admittedly, I tried to read the lyrics on a youtube video but couldn't last.

A horrible song by a horrible band, be secure in your continued ignorance on this subject.

A clear and concise assessment. I could see it possibly if it was some kind "okay, Boomer" mockery, but it seems to widespread not to be sincere.

I dont understand people liking it. I wish I was unaware of it's existence. And it isn't ironically cool to do a cover of it either. I dont think even a death metal band could redeem that song.

It had sunk to the bottom of my consciousness like the cultural shipwreck it is, but then this generation of Mel Fishers has to go and dredge it up.

edit: Is it just me or was I just possessed by Dennis Miller with that obscure reference?

I dont understand people liking it.

It's pretty obvious why people like it. It has an excellent catchy melody and is very well performed.

[BitterTom]

Yep that chorus is majestic as fuck.

Play That Funky Music is the only one that doesn't do much for me. Beyond that, it's a perfectly good playlist.

The Maroon 5 one makes me want to rip my ears clean off.

Same applies to the rest of their material.

Another truly awful band.

[Kory]

It's my least favorite Cure song but it beats out the rest of the list.

Ha, good one. But why do people actually like it?

Correct.

Sugar is a great song. They bust out a great single every three or so years. They’ve had a remarkably long career all things considered.

That is insane.

And that's coming from me.

You mean considering they are like fingernails down a blackboard. Don’t get me started on that Moooooves Like Jagger song.

Theory: Those are actually the things Heston calls supernoodles.
