HeadRAZZBerry this questions for you, the title is pretty self explanatory.

We had it a couple of years ago (CROSSROADS' whiny anthem "Not a Girl Not Yet An Actress" won it), but since then we haven't awarded it, what happened?

Just wondering.

BooBerry: A minimum of three contenders is needed to fill any category, and in the years since "Not Yet an Actress," there have been few if any songs from movies that were both Bad Enough AND Well Known Enough to justify continuing to present Worst "Original" Song.  Other than the wonderfully awful end title song from THUNDERBIRDS (which we showed for those who attended that year's Pre-Vue Nite Member Event) I can't think of even ONE song from the last few years worth bothering to RAZZ.  Actually, The Oscars® have the same problem (albeit in REVERSE!) but they have yet to admit it!

If you have suggestions or input on the subject of Worst "Original" Song for 2005, please feel free to REPLY...

Just give me a day or so to find some.

But for now here's a couple that come to mind:

"Get XXX'd" / xXx: STATE OF THE UNION

"Inside Your Mind" / SON OF THE MASK

"First" / HERBIE: FULLY LOADED

(I may be a wrong on these being "Original", if so I'm not done anyway and I'll think of more.)

I'll think of some more in a bit.

Oh my God, can't believe you guys forgot Jessica Simpson's "These Boots Aren't Made for Walkin"!

The Lindsay Lohan song from Herbie Fully Loaded is lame, too.

Simpson's song wasn't an "original"...just a horribly "performed" remake... I'd like to give her a boot to the head for even considering this song...

In response to "chan_beat" from above: Besides Razilla's point that Jessica Simpson's "Boots" was a re-do of a 1966 Nancy Sinatra song (and thus doesn't qualify as "original") there's also the fact that, if we nominated it, we might have to make our members sit through that awful video again -- and even WE aren't that cruel!!

By the way, the song's title is "These Boots ARE Made for Walkin'..."

So then, here are the possible Razzie contenders for Worst Orlginal Song:

First / HERBIE: FULLY LOADED

Get XXX'd / XXX: STATE OF UNION

Hustler's Ambition / GET RICH OR DIE TRYIN

Inside Your Mind / SON OF THE MASK

So Long and Thanks For All the Fish / THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY

These Boots Are Made For Walkin' / DUKES OF HAZZARD

Undiscovered / UNDISCOVERED

So far, we thought up of 7. There's still plenty of time. We can still think of more.

The Mormons were'nt really popular in the beginning, they're now becoming more popular, even in Hollywood.

that's right completely forgot that Simpson's song is a cover. I was so upset when she won Best soundtrack at people's choice. what are people thinking, they are so seduced by the clip.

I think, you should just drop "original", and give Simpson another chance to win an award.

Yo, gize -- Thanx for all the Feedback, Suggestions and Berry Helpful Research, but what makes our Worst Song category fun is having songs to nominate that more than five people have ever heard. All the movie tunes you've been posting may suck, but how can we ask our Members to vote for something no one's ever even heard? You've put up some Berry Persuasive Arguments but, bottom line, without at least 3 sucky songs that got MINIMUM radio airplay (as did BOTH bratty Britney songs and Madonna's dopey James Bond tune in 2002) Worst Song is a dead issue for 2005...

Could there be a retroactive Razzie given to Celine Dion for "My Stomach Churns On" (a.k.a. the song that did more damage to the Titanic than the iceburg)???
