The Girl ..... with KALEIDOSCOPE EYES! ... AND SHES GONE!
Yes folks, i recall seeing this mentioned recently in the newspapers, meaning its actually been released, although no reputable websites are currently stocking it.
http://www.ananova.com/entertainment...tainment.music
So the purpose of this thread is : To put forward songs which were so unbelievably bad they became legendary (as in people could not erase the memory of them without ECT).
Bonus Points to anyone whos reading my mind right now and can mention the Artist (and Album he released) which is right at the top of my all time "Want to remove his internal organs with a fork" rating.

Paul McCartney with the Frog Chorus is probably not what you are thinking but it took months of therapy for a few people I know

Good Game so far, but nobody is even remotely in the ballpark.

Re: The Girl ..... with KALEIDOSCOPE EYES! ... AND SHES GONE!
My personal chocie would be Good Charlotte. Organ removal with a fork is too good for them.
My real guess is Michael Bolton, though I am thankfully ignorant of any of his album titles.

Re: The Girl ..... with KALEIDOSCOPE EYES! ... AND SHES GONE!
Well Kura's stumping me atm given the vagueness of his clue's and the extreme crypticness of his last one.
If it wasn't for the fact he's mentioned it's a HIS then I would of guess Kate Bush but is that in the ballpark with regards to timeframe kura?

I like Peter Gabriel
And Phil Collins isnt THAT Bad
And Mike and the Mechanics were great (but thats mainly because Paul Carrick has one of the best male singing voices in the UK)

Re: The Girl ..... with KALEIDOSCOPE EYES! ... AND SHES GONE!
Stew , theyre called "Hints" , not "Answers".
Think word association.
What do you associate with "Basil"
What do you associate with "Crook"
What do you associate with "Big Frank"
All the clues are there.
Hint 1 : A Solo Artist
Hint 2 : Released several Albums, and had a No.1 Hit.
Hint 3 : Well known for his night time meetings with sheep (Its Cryptic, not literal, before someone suggests Jethro or something).
Hint 4 : Towards the end of the Kate Bush era.
Hint 5 : (This is Cryptic & Word Association) : Basil Crook
Hint 6 : The album was Big Frank's comeback.
