Summer is supposed to be a time for blockbuster movies, music festivals, and classic albums. But often, summer comes with its own set of... unmentionables. Yahoo! put together a terrifying list of summer one-hit wonders -- songs that took over for a season, then fell with the autumn leaves and crumbled under Father Time's heavy feet. Does "Macarena" ring a bell? Then you know where this is going.

We kind of hate to bring it up, but one of the best examples of a summer one-hit wonder on Yahoo's list is "Who Let the Dogs Out?" by Baha Men. Did anyone actually like that song, or was it just an unfortunate fad tied to an unbearably catchy tagline? Mysteriously absent from Yahoo's list is "MMBbop" by Hanson," who, believe it or not, still make music for a devoted (if miniscule) fan base. Let us know what you think the worst summer one-hit wonder was!

Baha Men, "Who Let the Dogs Out?" (2000)

I got "into" the other ones... found this one painstakingly annoying from the start, though.

I actually got into a fight while DJing a gig because I wouldn't play that retarded ass song! Well the fight was because I took the CD & broke it after the tried to push me out of the way so he could pop it in to my equipment.

In pop music, there is always an over load of crap. They're usually really bland and short of artistic integrity. It's all about the money not the music, that's why it's pop.

My choice - "The Thong Song" - Sisqo. If he had any other "hits", they were gifts because they felt sorry for the no-talent talent. His luck came and went with "The Thong Song". Not much talent there, sorry. The Macerana was a close second. http://images.sodahead.com/pr...

I don't know all of these but actually the song I hated was last summer when every time I turned on the radio I had to listen to Katy Perry's California Girls. Lame song and not even a catchy tune.

Justin Bieber (I hate him too though) But unfortunately he is not a 'one hit' wonder.
