September 1, 20222 yr I don't get why everyone is hating on 'Every Loser Wins', it's not trashy or annoying or novelty, surely at worst it's just an inoffensive piano ballad?

September 1, 20222 yr I don't get why everyone is hating on 'Every Loser Wins', it's not trashy or annoying or novelty, surely at worst it's just an inoffensive piano ballad? In my case it was due to enduring week after week of hearing a pretty dull ballad made even more plodding by an affable soap star. Im not even sure George Michael could have rescued it for me. Mainly it sold cos the ladies fancied Nick Berry :D
September 1, 20222 yr I don't know about others but for me Nick and his sugary gaze combined with the lyrics of the song turned this video/song into a parody, I can't take it seriously "Ultimate 100 really bad songs"
