Hmmm... I don't know of any bad ones she's ever done... I don't own any of her records, but I might look for some next time I venture out to the record store. She was well known for "Cry Me a River" (which I have by Lesley Gore) and "Fever." If you click back to YouTube, you'll find a host of her recordings. I believe she was used to good effect in Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter?", in which she appears repeatedly to Tom Ewell while lip-synching one of her numbers. It was one of those Frank Tashlin comedies, anyway, like The Girl Can't Help It (which are funny in an over-the-top leering slapstick way, as is appropriate from the director of classic cartoons like RED HOT RIDING HOOD and UNCLE TOM'S CABANA).
