What Should Be The Next Madness Bracket?

[Channel98]

My least favorite Beatles songs are Piggies, Yer Blues, Helter Skelter, Happiness Is A Warm Gun, Wild Honey Pie, What's The New Mary Jane, Why Don't We Do It In The Road and You Know My Name, Look Up The Number. We can be thankful that none of those was ever released as a single. Of their 20 number-one hits, there are none that I dislike.

If anyone nominates a Nickelback song. You will be banned from Madness!

Did any of them hit #1?

All #1 songs would be nominated. Do a runnoff to reach a power of 2 for madness eliminations.

"We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine"

omg it's so annoying!

I like the versions I have heard lately "We all die in a little submarine" and such.

And if a Beatles song does win for worst it will be funny.

How You Remind Me went to number one on the Hot 100 in December 2001 and stayed in the top spot for four weeks. It also went to number one on the alternative rock chart and the mainstream rock chart. Seven other Nickelback songs went to number one on the mainstream rock chart but How You Remind Me was their only number one on the Hot 100 and the alternative chart.

Avril Lavigne, best known for Complicated, Girlfriend, Sk8er Boi, I'm With You, What The Hell and My Happy Ending, recorded a version of How You Remind Me for the sound track of the December 2012 anime movie One Piece Film: Z.

Well, we definitely have one candidate for the 2000s worst #1 song then.

Revolution 9 never made the hot 100, but it's pretty f'ed-up.

 

[Channel98]

I would have included Revolution 9 but it isn't really a song. I'm not really sure what to call it. A "sound collage," maybe? Near the end when a crowd is yelling "Block that kick! Block that kick!", at one point they yell "Block that dick!" Wooh!

So, if it's ok with Wolf, I would like to do this one during his next madness break (after his current one).

 

[sadchild]

I like the idea. But I won't know many of them from before somewhere around 1963ish, or after 2016ish.

One of the things I will ask is which decade to start. Before 1970 I am weak and before 1955 my knowledge is minimal. However, 98 seems to be intimately familiar with stuff going back to the 1910s. If It was my decision alone I would do 1970s - 2000s only. But I will bow to consensus.

If It was my decision alone I would do 1970s - 2000s only.

I'm good with that, but I'd guess that some of us wouldn't know the songs on the extreme ends.

You can host Madness #31, right after sadchild completes his.

There couple of madness themes, that I kind of wanted to do. But I'll save them for next year. I’m still doing some research on them and I'll probably have the nominations all set by then. The themes, that I had in mind.

One theme might not be popular with some people. I wanna do some country music mainly dealing with artist/bands.

The other madness battle of movie categories. There are a lot types of categories. I'm gonna do 4 categories with 64 brackets in each. There will be a poll and I'm the top 4 categories will be the themes.


One last thing, I was thinking of changing up the CDT Madness. Possibly moving it up in December and have the finals in January when December finishes up. I'll most likely create a voting system and the top 3 or 4 celebrities with the most votes in each month will advance and do a simple 32 bracket.

 

[IdRatherBeSkiing]

The Beatles would still win the country music madness.

Don't Forget Act Naturally. The song was written in 1961 by Johnny Russell. By the time Buck Owens recorded it in 1963, Russell was collaborating with Livonia "Voni" Morrison. He gave her a songwriting credit for Act Naturally. What a nice guy! Owens' recording topped the country chart for four weeks. In October 1965, a version by the Beatles with Ringo singing lead reached #47 on the Hot 100 as the B-side of Yesterday. Russell would have 13 top-40 country hits in the 1970s and he and Morrison wrote Making Plans, a #2 country hit for Porter Wagoner & Dolly Parton in September 1980.

Buck and Ringo recorded a duet version of Act Naturally in 1989. It reached #27 on the country chart in September. I love this video with Buck and Ringo as western actors. It was produced by Ken Brown and directed by George Bloom.

Channel98 has everything before 1970 covered.

I'll sit that one out.

 

[Wolf]

I'll sit that one out.

Since you are in Toledo. I’m gonna fly out there get drunk on a plane. Then I’ll make you hop on my big green tractor and mow your front yard as we listen to 107.7 The Wolf. Because baby you are achy breaky my heart.

 

[HecticArt]

After

Since you are in Toledo.

All I saw was:
我要飛出去，在飛機上喝醉。然後我會讓你跳上我的大型綠色拖拉機，在我們聽 107.7 The Wolf 的同時割草你的前院。因為寶貝，你讓我心碎。

Speak English boy. Speak English!!!!!

That reminds me of an old joke. (Almost everything reminds me of an old joke.) When I was moving to a new house, I packed up all my belongings. I marked one box "china" and that's where the movers sent it.
