The early ’90s gave us some of the most iconic music of the decade, but 1993 and 1994 also produced a surprising collection of misfires that have aged like milk in the sun. From overproduced follow-up singles that couldn’t capture the magic of their predecessors to novelty tracks that made listeners question their life choices, these years proved that even in the golden age of grunge, hip-hop, and R&B, the charts had plenty of room for the ridiculous. Whether it was a syrupy ballad aimed at reclaiming past glory, a children’s song inexplicably turned into a global hit, or a cartoon theme song dragged into the pop charts, the bad was every bit as memorable as the good — just for all the wrong reasons

In this episode, Rob and Dave share their picks for the best of the worst songs from 1993 and 1994 — the tunes that topped “most annoying” lists, baffled critics, and left fans scratching their heads. These are the tracks that tried to ride trends and wound up derailing entirely, the guilty pleasures you wouldn’t admit to liking, and the curiosities that live on as cautionary tales in pop culture history. If you’ve ever wondered how something can be both a chart success and an absolute mess, these two years have all the proof you need — and Rob and Dave are here to break it all down with equal parts nostalgia and playful mockery
