Boom Boom Boom by The Outhere Brothers

I would hope that most people would consider this mid-nineties horror worthy of making the list - including the Outhere Brothers' mums, who were probably appalled by the pornographic lyrics that littered the non-radio edit. 'Boom Boom Boom' brings back some unwelcome memories of being 15 and on a German exchange visit to Monchengladbach; along with 'Cotton Eye Joe' by the Rednex and 'Saturday Night' by Whigfield, it was a staple at every German disco. And back home was no better, because several thousand idiots kept it at number 1 for four grim weeks; and it was on the CD player whenever you went to someone's house to drink 20-20 and Bacardi Breezers. Bad times indeed. This song was followed up by the equally irritating 'Don't Stop (Wiggle Wiggle)', which was virtually the same track - I actually can't distinguish the tunes in my head any more. Anyway, with any luck the Outhere Brothers have gone into retirement, or perhaps they've been arrested for being big fat pervs....

Crap lyrics: "Girl your booty is so round/Let me look you up and down" (Worse are to be found in the 'Hardcore' remix...)

Verdict: Sounded like they should have been European. English-as-a-second language might have been some sort of excuse.
