I agree that there isn't a 'worst' song; I just wanted to keep the thread title relatively short.

Well, that's kinda the point. Piggy's Fantasy is supposed to be an over-the-top pastiche of the Busby Berkely movie musicals.

This is going to be hard, but here goes...

The Muppet Movie:
Favorite: The Rainbow Connection/Moving Right Along.
Least Favorite: Never Before, Never Again.

The Great Muppet Caper:
Favorite: Happiness Hotel.
Least Favorite: A tough one, but I'll say Miss Piggy's Fantasy (though if you asked me 8-18-year-old self my answer would have been The First Time It Happens).

The Muppets Take Manhattan:
Favorite: Together Again/You Can't Take No For an Answer/Right Where I Belong.
Least Favorite: She'll Make Me Happy (while I enjoy watching it, when I listen to it on the 25th anniversary album, where you don't get the visuals or the fun lead-up, it's boring).

The Muppet Christmas Carol:
Favorite: Scrooge/ Thankful Heart.
Least Favorite: When Love is Gone.

Muppet Treasure Island:
Favorite: Cabin Fever/Something Better.
Least Favorite: Pretty much all the songs (the ones listed in favorites are the best in a movie of songs I don't care much about).
