The evening is perfect. You've made your finger-lickin' herb dip, decked yourself out in your finest, and opened several bottles of killer Zin. Your entourage arrives -- things start kickin' -- and your "best party EVER" is in full swing! Now... just make sure you have the perfect playlist pumping so the evening's music is as flawless as every other detail. Until it's your own party you may not realize that a really bad song kills a good vibe -- and that's not easy to revive. Here are Foxy's votes for the ten worst buzzkill tunes of all time.

I'm Too Sexy by Right Said Fred This song's humor wore out long ago, and now it's just vulgar, cheesy, and so annoying. It's kind of become a really bad, hairy, cheap-cologne-wearing gigolo anthem.

All By Myself by Eric Carmen Music to make even the happiest person on earth sick with despair. There's no amount of nostalgia in the world that can make us yearn for this song -- even if our dog died... even if we lost our job... and especially if we're trying to party!

When I Grow Up by The Pussycat Dolls These girls are H-O-T. We get it. And if your party playlist was voted on looks alone, they'd be near the top. But this repetitive, hi-pitched, electro-pop track lacks the sexy vibe of "Don't Cha" and just leaves us wishing the Dolls would grow up and sing a little something else.

Endless Love by Lionel Richie & Diana Ross Just thinking about this gushy ballad makes us so happy the ‘80s are over! Even the divine Miss Ross can't save this duet from being maudlin.

Macarena by Los Del Rio This flash-in-the-pan phenom is our pick for the most annoying song of all time. Even if half your guests agree with us (and we think the will), cross this dance ditty permanently off your list.

Fergalicious by Fergie The funky Fergie stutters her way through this irritating tune, parts of which sound like a broken record, literally. She may have the best abs in the music 'biz, but do you and your friends really want to listen to her sing about herself for nearly five minutes?

I Kissed A Girl by Katy Perry Too loud. Too obvious. Just trying too darn hard. With its in-your-face content and dumbed-down lyrics, it comes off as a one-hit-wonder curiosity for the under-twenty set. The kind of tune you'd expect to hear playing at a teen-store at the mall, not a hip soiree. We like the taste of cherry chapstick too but...

My Heart Will Go On by Celine Dion Your gathering will sink and crash like the legendary Titanic. Need we say more?

Don't Worry Be Happy by Bobby McFerrin Childish, perky pop -- upbeat to the point of being really really annoying. This is a song that makes you be happy that you're near the door.

The End by The Doors Weighing in at over 11 minutes long, this song will stop even the most raucous party in its tracks. The lyrics - "Father...I want to kill you" - are not quite the feelgood hit of the century.

That is pretty funny, Annie!

and the list hit me differently - I thought what a stimulating conversation we could all have if we were listening to this playlist!!!

Interesting how many of these songs hit #1 on the Singles charts or charted very highly. Obviously more than a few people thought that they were more than "buzzkill tunes."
