90s
I need help. What would you consider the worst song (or songs) of the 90s. I'm talking terrible songs that sold bunches. Not novelty songs, not songs that were meant to be bad, or parodies or such things, Songs like The Macarena ... terrible stuff

"Finally" - Ce Ce Peniston - 1991 - good song but got way overplayed
"Show Me Love" - Robin S - 1993 - same as last song, way overplayed

Achy Breaky Heart is a good one though
Just go ahead now...
Now, if you turn to the hits of the Spin Doctors, you're talking about bad in an entirely unenjoyable way.

Achy Breaky Heart - Billy Ray Cyrus
...This is harder, because I sort of gave up on pop music (as played on the radio) in about 1993 because it was swiftly becoming not to my taste anymore, and started retrenching my 80s back-catalog knowledge and collection. So I don't really know what sold better than it's merits.

Limp Bizkit - "Nookie"
Whitney Houston - "I Will Always Love You"
Creed - "Higher"
Extreme - "More Than Words"
Bob Carlisle - "Butterfly Kisses"
Alanis Morissette - "Ironic" and "You Learn"
Backstreet Boys - "I Want It That Way"
Damn Yankees - "High Enough"
Crash Test Dummies - "Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm"
FWIW, I feel no shame in admitting I think "I'm Too Sexy" is a great song. It's one of the few novelty songs of the last two decades that reminds me of the classic novelty songs of the '70s that I grew up with. And the cute little Ravel-pop guitar solo always makes me smile...
