TOP OF THE FLOPS

Justin Bieber and Mr Blobby share infamy of being named in worst 50 albums of all time… but who is top?

Some big names unexpectedly feature in the top ten

MR Blobby has beaten Justin Bieber to the unwanted title of worst album of all time.

Noel Edmonds’ weird sidekick from his 90s TV show Noel’s House Party topped the tuneless Top 50 chart with his 1994 self-titled album.

The Cheeky Girls’ ‘Party Time’ was runner-up, followed by another celebratory effort which fell flat, the Vengaboys’ ‘The Party Album’.

Justin Bieber had the dubious distinction of being the only artist to feature twice in the top 10 – with ‘Believe’ and ‘Purpose’.

Paul Treanor, eCommerce director for online trade-in site Ziffit.com, which commissioned the survey of 2,000 UK adults, said: “Everyone has their own taste in music.

“What one person thinks is the best album ever, will be something another believes to be the worst, so it’s interesting to see what the general opinion of the nation is.

“Mr Blobby will have been a popular character in the 90s, which is why he landed number one when his single was released.

“However, tastes can change which is reflected by him now having the worst albumever written according to the 2,000 who answered the survey.

“As for Justin Bieber, it would be interesting to know if his recent poor behaviour has led to respondents thinking his albums aren’t any good.”

Paul added: “At Ziffit our service helps us stay on top of changing consumer trends in music.

“However, I was still intrigued to see despite Justin Bieber’s apparent growing popularity he features twice in the worst album list”

“There could potentially be a lot of controversy in this list, especially when the likes of One Direction and Justin Bieber have polled so highly.
