No, Mark -- with all respect, I meant "worst" as in "most bad." I think the lyrics are trite and banal and the overall song mawkish and plodding. If the Cure were to do it, I probalby wouldn't like their rendition of it either. And I'd rather have my wisdom teeth re-inserted and re-ripped out again than ever listen to Snow Patrol.
