Any of the modern bro country BS, with white dudes trying to rap about trucks and shit. Had a coworker that’d blast that shit and it drove me insane.

I always thought that these kind of songs are just a bit. No wonder these fuckers like AI country songs

A disturbing amount of that shit is them singing about being cucked too. It's fucking weird.

All I want for Christmas is you

I worked in retail in the early-mid 00s

Back when Christmas time meant the in-store music CD was just one disk we had on loop for basically 2 months rather than the usual selection of a few disks

I don't think I've felt hatred like it since

♪ I don't want a lot in Christmas ♪

I'm a crusty metal head. It takes a lot, and I mean A LOT, to make me hate a song. Design the Skyline's 2011 flaming pile of shit Surrounded by Silence is the single worst metal song I've ever listened to. At a time where we had major musical juggernauts like BTBAM, Periphery, Protest the Hero, After the Burial, and so many other great technically sound musicians just hitting their stride or deep in their prime, Design the Skyline said 'this'll do.'

I could rip into this thing a million different ways. Lets just start with the fucking aesthetics. It's 2011. I'm a year into college. Hipsterism is on the rise. Scene kids are dying out. These guys are the last vestige of an embarrassingly low period of teenage subculture. You got two lead screamers. A gelfling, and Rhea Ripley 12 years before her time. The bassist is little brother Ethan after Mom said let your little brother be in the band. 3 nondescript other dudes wearing girls clothing who are too embarrassed to show their faces at all. And a drummer who is too good for this shit. They're children of that time. The first thing I thought to my self as soon as they show up in the video even back then is, 'we're still doing this?'

The start of the song is the best part. It's this techy synth stuff with great dynamics that fits the era. It's long enough to make you think we're in for a good ride. Then it drops out and the actual band starts and hooooo boy is it bad. It's pure WHAT THE FUCK! The two screamers go back and forth unintelligibly. The guitars are playing fuck all. The bass drops out like fucking Hetfield was mixing And Justice For All. It's just chaos.

Then you get to the chorus. It's autotuned to shit. In the actual video the gelfling is battling snow that keeps falling into his mouth. The Rhea clone is dry heaving and singing at the same time. He legit looks like he's gonna be sick the way he's moving. Then little brother Ethan comes in. He's the most awkward, no confidence looking mother fucker of the whole video. He looks like he spent the whole day getting yelled at to move like this and you'll look cool, but it was really a joke and he just looks stupid. To the point there's a shot of the Rhea clone staring off and rolling his eyes while little brother Ethan is singing, like why is he here? It's just a fucking mess. The best part of the chorus is this is the only time in the whole song it happens.

Then it returns back to the chaos of nothingness musically and you feel shock. Why am I being bombarded by this? What is the point of this song? What is the point of my life? There are legit musicians at this period of time. Misha Mansoor is working hard on P2. The boys in BTBAM are working hard on P2. Everybody is waiting for the next Contortionist album. You got a whole new movement in Djent. Then this shit forces it's way into the spotlight like a distraction from the Epstein Files.

And when I tell you the description I'm writing is nothing compared to the hate this song got at the time, I fucking mean it. They released their record then split up. The amount of hate they got broke the band up. There was no way anyone was taking any of this shit seriously. That's how bad it was.

Here it is. Do not enjoy.

The only other songs that makes me a fraction as upset as the above is Pause and Rib Woman on Frosting by Bent Knee. I can't prove it but I really think those two songs caused a rift in the band that got Ben and Jess kicked out the band. Ben with out of control creativity that tanked a record on Pause. Whoever decided to have a high pitched alarm go off for a whole song deserves to be whipped. Nobody wants to listen to Jess moan for a whole song like Rib Woman. They're lucky they had the cover of covid to leave, but man that record really upset a lot of people. None more than the band itself. They'll never say it but it's pretty obvious. The Hyperpop experiment was a failure.

Man, that was so much worse than I was expecting

I couldn't finish it, I read this masterful take down and still pushed my luck. I think I need a cleansing song, my musical palette is defiled.

Same, I got maybe 30-40 seconds in before I had to turn that trash off.

If you want a suggestion (that the OP also mentioned), check out Between the Buried and Me (I'm always partial to Prequel to the Sequel or anything off of the dual album Parallax/Parallax 2: Hypersleep dialogs - that playlist is my pallate cleanser)

Excellent, thank you

I'm sorry. I warned you but I'm still sorry.

Commenting so I remember to give it a listen later. Sounds… greaaat.

This post was so good, I'm nominating it for Best of Lemmy material. You've got a way with words, my friend, and though I loathe to expose more innocents to this song's noise, you painted such a vivid picture that this description is worth sharing.

LOL Thank you. That's so funny. All these years later and this stupid song is getting me internet fame. HAAAAHAHAHAH!!!!!!

Your description was so good, curiosity got the better of me and I clicked the link. I even made it through the whole thing, despite every urge to stop the pain. I think I've done irreparable damage to my recommendation algorithm. And to think I was just going to say Kokomo.

I think I’ve done irreparable damage to my recommendation algorithm.

Thanks for the warning! Opens private tab

[After watching] Okay. Wow. Well. Now that the song has stopped, my ears feel oddly empty. That was... a lot.

Kids - this is why we can't go with every single idea we come up with, especially in a collaborative effort like a band. There are times we have to edit back for the sake of a shared project. It seems like everyone came into this song with their own list of "cool ideas" and the group decided, "Let's just do them ALL!" There's no cohesion, no direction, no shared vision. Everyone wants their moment and their thing, and the band just lets it all happen in one chaotic collection.

After watching this, I feel like them splitting up was bound to happen. At times it's almost like they're each trying to play a different song that happens to line up with what everyone else is playing. A band can't function if the members can't agree on what song they're making. Props to the drummer, not just because OP is right that he's too good for this, but because I can't imagine how much worse this all would've sounded if the rest didn't have someone skilled keeping time for them. The percussion is the lone scaffold holding all the different parts together. Sadly, it's not enough.

At one point in watching, I imagined their poor parents living in a house where these kids were practicing in the garage. Or standing awkwardly at the back of some public performance, trying to support their kids but feeling deeply embarrassed and trying not to make eye contact with anyone.

I read your comment and clicked the link thinking it couldn't possibly be as bad as you described. But it really is so bad that my shoulders physically lifted as my head sunk into my chest and I leaned back. It's... just... so... bad.

Thanks for taking one for the team!

I'm just glad my sacrifice was not in vain.

I could rip into this thing a million different ways.

And so you have. Bravo!

I laughed when the song kicked in after the intro. Your description of the whole thing was completely accurate.

That drummer was definitely way too good, and that's probably why he featured more heavily in the clip than I think I've ever seen a drummer feature. I hope he's doing something fun now.

On the bright side, you'd given me a perfect example to share when they ask me why I don't like 00s+ emo culture (in general), and their influence then and now in rock and metal music.

Idk, the vibe they are going for isn't particularly bad, it's something like metalcore but Emo. The issue is that they put 0 effort into making an actual proper song.

Linking park has a similar-ish vibe and their songs are good. Electric Callboy has a very different vibe but their metalcore is what this song would dream to be.

Don't blame Emos for the lack of care for the craft this band had.

Maybe they’re just doing a Captain Beefheart cover. https://youtu.be/r9lpLm7jwQY

It's basically low effort very amateur metalcore. I get the feeling they are trying to achieve something similar to Electric Callboy but Emo but fail spectacularly.

Wonderful Christmas Time.

It's awful and Sir Paul McCartney should be ashamed of himself for making it

This is the first specific song I've seen mentioned twice in this thread (so far.)

I'm amused by how many Christmas songs are making this list. I imagine there wouldn't be such strong feelings if we weren't forced to listen to them ad nauseam for a month straight.

Simply having a

Amen, friend. It's such a shit song.

My humps by Black Eyed Peas

Let's get "it started" is another awful BEP song, and not just because the album version constantly repeats a slur

"what no it doesnt?" - me five minutes before discovering something crazy.

why the fuck was it that in the first place??? their songs barely make sense but that makes even less sense.

Are you talking about Let's Get Retarded? That was the original version. Personally, I find "It started" to be moreso.

Yeah, but at least the radio version isn't constantly repeating that slur, so it's the superior version of a shit song.

You're showing your lack of intelligence here. Whatever you think the word means, the slur still a slur.

Do you think it's ok to call people the n-word, even though you're not trying to demean a black person?

Have you ever heard the phrase "getting stupid"? Well, this is one level beyond that.

Yes! I knew I wasn't the only one. I used to have to get a coach to college and I feel like there was a solid three month period when I'd have to hear this shit on the driver's radio twice a day.

The tune would be grating enough even if the lyrics weren't completely asinine (pun intended).

Wonderful Christmastime by Paul McCartney is just the most stupefyingly lazy and annoying song and people just play it 😤 n every single Christmas playlist because it's Paul McCartney.

Beyonce - single ladies

I hate the the lyrical content almost as much as the music part.

Mr. Brightside by The Killers.

Really, anything by the Killers, but this one is so incredibly over played and it makes my brain hurt why anyone ever liked that song in the first place.

Do you hate the song, or the killers/their version of it?

Because I found a cover of it in the style of A7X that is probably the best version of it possible

E: added link

Both, but probably mostly just the killers.

Reviewing the lyrics, yeah, def not a fan of the song and (what I see as) the under lying message. And messages like that in songs are fairly important to me enjoying them.

That's legit. I'm not a fan of the message necessarily (toxic monogamy is rather frustrating), but that version is just a massive ear worm for me

Interesting. Iirc this is a song that's supposed to be describing how shitty thoughts get in that moment before we know if a betrayal has happened. Supposedly it's a song meant to bring awareness to how shitty we can be in those moments when invasive thoughts start to take over. Which that's why it's never confirmed in the song if the cheating is real or just feared

The song is often misinterpreted. I would find an explanation of the dungsong by Brandon Flowers if you want to be less bothered by the messaging of the song, even if that is so not the only reason you dislike it

The Killers are just so fucking.... Boring. How do you go and have a name like "the killers" and be the most blah boring fucking music on the planet?

I don't have a hated song but a hated genre, the bro country.

Dancing Queen - ABBA

Makes me wanna throw up. I can't even explain why.

You've now been flagged an enemy of state in Sweden

Mamma Mia the Musical ruined fucking Abba for me. Can't stand any of it anymore.

You mean you're not charmed by the dancing queen, young and sweet, only 17? Or how the song describes her as "a teaser, you turn 'em on"?

Granted, I don't get creepy vibes from it, probably because it's written and sung by a woman. I imagine a teenager excited for prom and feeling on top of the world. But that isn't a sentiment I ever shared, in fact the girls I saw get the most excited were people who'd bullied me when younger. So I get a more melancholy feeling from it than anything else.

it was such a letdown that, with a title like that, the Just Dance choreography of that song is boring as fuck

That 'last christmas' song by Wham or George or whomever. Stab me in the eye before I want to hear that again. Everyone talks about Mariah's song this one is 10x worse.

Here's a song that doesn't make me angry, it makes me disappointed.

Bad for Good by Meat Loaf.

Why does it make me disappointed? I'm a certified Meat Loaf/Jim Steinman enjoyer, I've never tried to deny it. Jim Steinman wrote this song for Meat Loaf originally, but since Meat was going through some stuff, Jim released an album of his own with his version of the song. Now Jim, bless his heart, doesn't have the voice to carry it, but the tune is one the best he's written in my book. So the eventual Meat Loaf version should have been a banger. But compare the last 90s of Meat Loaf's version to Steinman's. Meat Loaf is singing it with barely any passion (by his standards). The removed the electric guitar wailing in the background (the best part of the song). Even the choir doesn't seem as into it. The whole thing just seems like it's had the joy sapped from it.

This is in stark contrast to Out of the Frying Pan (Jim, Meat) where everything in the Meat Loaf version is just more and I just god damned love that song.

Thank you for listening for to my TedX talk.

Anything but the fucking Eagles, man.

Hotel California is forever on loop in Hell

Denied
NEXT

Well I'm a running down the road

Looking for a commode

I've got seven tacos on my mind

Four with guacamole, two tomatoes only, one with sour cream and chives

Fucking Staind. It's Been Awhile is one of the whiniest piece of shit songs with the dumbest lyrics ever written. Louie Louie is Shakespeare compared to that song. It came out right around the time Clear Channel was barfing out Christian rock garbage and I'd rather listen to Creed telling me about Jeebus's arms wide open a million times before I'd listen to someone repeat the same emo trash "I'm 13 and this is deep" line in a song 14 fucking times.

Anything Metallica.

This is me these days, which is crazy because I used to love them for a long time. But, you know, I was like 10.

I may be biased because I grew up to enjoy playing drums quite a bit, but Lars Ulrich is such a disappointment.

I don’t think Lars Ulrich is the best drummer in the world. In fact, I don’t even think he’s the best drummer in Metallica.

Yeah, after I started listening to Megadeth, the lyricism was all Metallica had left.

I should add that I do prefer the juxtaposition of Dave's somewhat goofy vocals over some of the hardest riffs ever than any time Metallica has tried to be serious since the 80s.

Medadeth is so fucking good until the singing starts.

I remember when I first got into Megadeth, I read a comment that said, "I showed this to my grandma and she asked who told that poor lady she could sing."

Still love Megadeth though.

Thease fucks tried to destroy piracy. I don't listen to their songs out of principle.

Me over here literally playing Orion lol

I'm seeing a lot of songs here I actually enjoy, and wondering if I've stepped into the wrong comments section.

That said, I do despise that "Anxiety" song that made the rounds on TikTok a while back. The remix (Read: The exact same track) of "Somebody That I Used To Know." It's a solid few seconds where you're thinking you're listening to a good song, then you get smacked in the face.

That song is a blatant copy of Gotye’s song with a little of Taylor Swift’s Shake it Off. I’m stunned it wasn’t in a plagiarism lawsuit

I'm at least glad Doechii got the phenomenal "Denial is a River" to be a major hit a few months before that one, because can you imagine having "Anxiety" be your one hit?

My Sharona by The Knack. Everything about that song sucks, fuck it to hell.

Pedophilic too

Roar by Katy Perry. It's like 3 notes.

Top of my head, it has to be a toss up between Barbie Girl and Cotton Eye Joe. But given time, I'm sure I'd come up with something else.

Like I find Lovely Day by Bill Withers to be one of the most annoying songs ever, but I can't say it's BAD.

I find Lovely Day by Bill Withers to be one of the most annoying songs ever

i love that song :(

It's 75% great. But then it gets to the 3 minute mark and I just don't need that minute plus of Lovely Days and held notes. But I know I'm most likely a minority with that opinion.

I never got into group dances. I love music. According to my mom, I've been dancing for as long as I've been able to stand. But when a song comes on and there are specific directions on how to move, I almost resent it. Are you a dance instructor? No? You're just a song? Okay, then don't tell me how to dance.

That's why I never got into Cotton Eye Joe, or the Electric Slide, or any of the other group dances they play at every party. Dancing is a creative expression, it feels weird to use it to conform with others. I get that it can be fun for some people to dance in synchrony, and if well-choreographed a group dance can look amazing. But these pop group-dance songs just don't inspire me to move.

Happy by Pharrell. I find it extremely annoying.

My oldest thought it was named “Happy Cap Alone” when he was little, and now I cannot hear it as anything else

Agreed

Repetitive, boring, fake, and beloved by terrible soccer moms everywhere

"Pump it" by the Black Eyed Peas, They ruined a perfectly good song (Misirlou)

"Home" by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros

After years of hating it, I've basically boiled my criticism down to the fact that it's

Banal, saccharine, faux-folksy bullshit.

I'm pretty sure I've written that exact string of words dozens of times over the years whenever this topic comes up. But I'll expand on it a bit.

It drags on for a little over 5 minutes, it's too damn long for having no real substance

Half of the lyrics are just cutesy-sounding words with no real significance

There's a weird spoken word bit in the middle telling a story that just kind of doesn't go anywhere basically just "remember that time you fell out a window and I drove you to the hospital? That's when I fell in love with you"

Why? Are you attracted to women who are bleeding all over your car? Do you get turned on by gravity? Did she say something funny? Did she at least look cute? There's just no fucking payoff.

There's not really even anything particularly interesting musically interesting going on there.

And what's with the fake southern drawl? You're from L.A. my dude. That's Los Angeles, not Louisiana. And by the way "Edward Sharpe," you forgot to even use that bullshit "alter-ego" name in this song, you're not even keeping your own made-up lore straight, just drop the fucking act.

I'm pretty sure if I asked the crappiest LLM out there to write a "bullshit folksy love song for basic white teenage girls" it would spit out something better.

And for some reason the radio stations around me played this song to absolute death, not to mention my sister practically listening to it on repeat. It's burned into my head and I absolutely fucking hate it.

U2 - Beautiful Day . Fuck that song and fuck you too, how dare you even remind me.

We Built This City - Jefferson Starship

Feliz Navidad. I had a coworker that would play it on his cubicle boombox and it's just a bad song to hear while you're trying to do something in a spreadsheet.

Feliz Navidad. Mostly due to retail radio burnout. It's annoyingly repetitive, and reminds me of dealing with the braindead public around the worst time of year to be a retail worker.

That one drove me nuts as well. The worst is the live aid one, patronising racist crap.

Guns n roses - knocking on heavens door

Nothing like sitting around a dining table clustered with elderly people while this fucking song plays, as the nursing home's staff is too busy feeding patients to change the station. There I was, spoon-feeding someone's paralyzed grandma, as this song played on. So uplifting.

I think that's a good song spoiled by Axel Rose's vocals.

Gimme some REGGAE!

Oh, I don't mind the genre and enjoy it from time to time. GnR used to drag Knocking on Heaven's Door out for like 10 minutes live and at some point Axl shouted "gimme some REGGAE" and they went into it for a minute. Like just about everything GnR ... fucking ridiculous.

And I say that as someone who absolutely considers them a major touch point in my life's musical journey.

Damn, I feel like this is a real hot take. Can I ask what it is about the song that annoys you?

I love gnr and hate it too. Dunno. I like the original Dylan. And Dylan doing his own songs is usually the worst.

It was cool when I was 14 and didn't know shit about Bob Dylan or the song. But 35 years on...you just better start stamping your own rank certification, Jack, because it's just you against your tattered libido, the bank, and the mortician forever, man, and it wouldn't be luck if you got out of life alive.

Anyway, by no means the worst cover ever, but it's just kind of fucking goofy.

It insists upon itself.

I can't do the vocals. It's hard to believe that it's earnest and not just making fun of the song.

NYOCK NYOCK NYOCKIN AHOWN HYEVENZ DAHWOAAA

for seven and a half minutes.

(in the shrillest voice you can imagine) NECK NECK NECKIN EN HEAVENS DAaAaAAAAAAH!!

Pearl Jam's Last Kiss sends me into a blind rage. I respect people's right to like this song but it is terrible, and they played it on the radio all the fucking time. I'm getting pissed just typing this out.

All of Pearl Jam belongs in the dumpster

Such a good band, what a wild take. Any chance you care to share what is it you dont like? Not trying to convince you of anything just want to hear why, if that's not too much to ask

Not OP but Vedders voice bugs me, the lyrics try too hard to be important, the guitar solos are just pentatonic Hendrix-style riffs that were falling out of favor even then, and all of the musicianship is just good while not being special in any way, shape or form.

^ This

Overplayed more than Jeremy some how.

Originally by the Proclaimers I believe. I love the song lol

I absolutely fucking hate S"hake it off" by Taylor Swift.

It is probably one of the few songs that I hate in particular (usually I just dont like a genre and not a particular song).

The reason for this is in fact quite simple. when I was in the third/fourth grade I got a class teacher that hated me on a personal level. Her attitude wass literally like "fuck this kid in particular". In the 4th grade we were forced to do some kind of performance/dance as a whole class to this song and it absolutely ruined this song forever for me (tbh, nothing of value has been lost, I kind of dont like Taylor Swift in general).

Bruce Springsteen's Born in the USA.

I know the proper meaning of the lyrics but still hate the song, separate from how it's been used. Grates like sandpaper.

Have you tried the version from the Nebraska rerelease? So different and good.

No, I really don't listen to Bruce at all. Glad you like it.

Fair enough!

Got more info on that?

The song itself? There's this Demo version and then the "Electric Nebraska" version

I find his vocals so garbled. For the longest time I though the lyrics to Blinded by the Light were “wake up, take a deuce in the middle of the night”

Dance Monkey

OMG YES! I fucking hate that song.

Thank you, it makes my ears bleed!

I absolutely hate the lyrics of it, "Oh poor me, I actually have to play/do what people like to be a performer"! Like duh!

i can't think of a single person on the planet who enjoys dance monkey, but considering how popular it is, there has to be someone out there. i fear the kind of person that is.

It's my extremely high support needs autistic brother. I don't know why. Unfortunately, he does. He doesn't wear headphones either, he just blasts that shit in the house.

Cotton-Eye Joe by Rednex makes me want to stab myself in the temple with a letter opener.

The one that goes "siiimply haaaving a wonderful Christmas time"

"I saw the sign" by Ace of Base.

My mom got stuck on that song in my childhood and played it on infinite repeat for like four fucking years

If I ever lose my shit and start murdering people in a public space, it's going to be because somebody played "I Saw the Sign" by Ace of Bass a second time during my tenure in that location.

Oh yeah, and that John Mayer song "Waiting on the world to change?" Like motherfuck, shut the fuck up.

I don't know what drugs he was taking that made him think it was okay to repeat one sentence for four fucking minutes, but I wish he had overdosed and died before completing the song.

And i would walk 500 Miles and i would walk 500 more to be the man who would walk 1000 miles blah blah blah blah 😭🔫

And it's sad too because on the same album, there's a song called Sunshine on Leith, which is a great song, but nobody ever listened to it because they heard 500 miles and they were expecting everything to be exactly the same.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iesps9w4HFw

500 miles does not fit to the rest of the album.

same for Smash Mouth from what i’ve heard. I guess you could say that’s how Limp Bizkit and to a lesser extent 311 became pop too.

Same for Blur and Song 2

Anything by an artist that turned out to be a pedo, RHCP, aerosmith, etc. It makes me sick knowing they're still making royalties and not facing consequences.

Dream Weaver

My friend Michelle says that she loves everything about that song except for the chorus, that the chorus completely ruins the song.

“Don’t Stop Believing” by Journey. That song makes me want to vomit

Last Christmas

We are the champions by Queen

Not for any fault of the song, but the fact that it, without fail, ALWAYS FUCKING FOLLOWS We will rock you

Baby shark

Honestiy, anything by Creed.

The Cars for Kids jingle.

It’s KARS 4 KIDS and you should see who runs it!

I have been told that ultimately the charity supports birthright trips to Israel. There are a couple of pass-throughs as the money moves.

Honestly, "Happy". Not because of the song itself, thats completely fine, but my wind orchestra had an arrangement with the least inspired tuba voice I have ever played.

Iris by The Goo Goo Dolls. It seems to be making a resurgence lately and I absolutely despise it.

Happy birthday. The social pressure to just start singing sucks and i hate it

Hotel California. Worked at a small airport that played it every couple hours. I had a rough night and I hate the fucking Eagles, man.

You know what? I love generally terrible pop music, and half this thread are songs I've listened to this week.

But god fucking dammit, if that Paul McCartney Christmas song comes on, it causes a flight response in me. My body wants me to run away.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go for a run blasting all these bangers.

Mustang Sally can burn in hell. Fuck that song. Repeating a one line chorus for a million fucking years is not a god damned song, it’s a method of torture.

Uptown Funk by Mark Ronson featuring Bruno Mars

Whatever the song is that uses the tune from "drift away" and turns it into a shitty country song. I fucking despise that song.

Anything Meghan trainor sings is complete and utter garbage

Take me to church by that hozer guy. Not even just the content, but also the way he sings

Butterfly by crazy town

Jessie's Girl. It's very catchy, but the lyrics are about being jealous of your friend, and the description of the girl involved is just so ridiculously minimal - she has eyes she looks with, she has a body, and she loves Jessie. That's everything single thing said about her.

I absolutely dislike imagine dragons, but their song cutthroat is criminally bad. It sounds like a joke or a lost bet.

What’s Up by 4 Non Blondes Easily the most annoying song ever performed

Can you imagine living next to an asshole who gets up every morning at the break of day and yells "What's going on!". It would be like living next to a coked out rooster.

I am so with you on this one. I have come around to a lot of songs, I can tolerate some real vile shit, I can be amused by absolute garbage, but this song goes against every fiber of my being. It's like a cheese grater to my brain. And I don't know why.

I'm a big anti-fan of modern cowboy emo, but that's hardly unique.

Fuck any song that starts out with a riff from another song that makes you think it's the other song. This also applies to small bits here and there in the song.

I'm a big anti-fan

What does this even mean? It reads like real life doublespeak...

He buys tickets to the shows just so he can start fights.

reminds me of the people that would go to Boy Sets Fire shows just to heckle them.

Guessing an anti-fan is just a hater

I'm Every Woman.

Are you though, Whitney? Because that sounds like it's impossible, or some horrific monkey's paw situation.

I love all these songs lol

The map song from Dora the Explorer.

Ain't No Sunshine by all the fucking bands covering it and fucking it up. Absolutely hate that song.

Truly the Mustang Sally of this era.

All of the Blippi songs

Don't Stop Believing

This is quite niche, but the jingle they used to play in a local drugstore called Daikoku Drug in Japan. I think they hired a local amateur idol group and they couldn't sing for shit.

Time of my life - Blac Eyed Peas

I don't know why but this song gives me the ick, tied with We Are Young by Fun (?)

Love Shack

Never gonna give you up. I don't like the music or the memes at all.

Pumped up Kicks. Like... jesus christ...

Tom's Diner. It played in the Muzak rotation when I worked retail. I went into the coffe shop and had a cup of coffee. Do do doo do do and it just hangs in my head.

"Losing my Religion" by REM. It's what fingernails on a chalkboard sound like if the music industry made us listen to it over & over again in grocery stores.

I really hate that one eagle eye cherry song. Most basic annoying shit that got played everywhere constantly.

Save tonight?

and fight the break of dawn

Come tomorrow

Tomorrow OP'll be gone, to get away from y'all singing

Yes!

One Headlight - I don't even know why other than that the song is the epitome of meh, but I fucking hate that song.

I do enjoy that song, but I totally agree that it's much better to be bad than boring.

I thought it was interesting that the singer is Bob Dylan's son

Lady in red

Anything out of Frozen, particularly in Estonian.

Man, it's scary how many of these hated songs I like.

"Praise You Like I Should" by Fatboy Slim. I don't like any of his music, but that's the one I have to turn off. A single sustained tone is not music, Slim. It's an equipment malfunction.

24 karat by Bruno Mars pisses me off so much that I immediately want to turn off the radio.

The disconnected randomness just ticks me off.

Murder on the dance fkoor

I hate repetitive songs. That includes some very popular songs like "Around the world".

Sultans of Swing. Everyone and their uncle thinks its the best thing ever, so I hear it all the fime. Repetitive music, barely any actual singing, and just frankly sounds shit. I can't believe it was so popular that I am now cursed to hear if on every oldies station.

this one made me say 'what the fuck?' out loud.

I could never hate Sultans of Swing, but I hear you. It's the one Dire Straits song that ever gets played, and even worse, the radio edit cuts out a lot of the virtuosic guitar solos, which are really the best part of the tune.

It's also extremely well recorded and is a great song for testing new audio gear. Same with Hotel California.

I can definately see people getting sick and tired of it though. Not me.

True story - I once went to a concert because the Smithereens were the opener and left before the headliner came on. The main act? Dire Straits.

Seasons of Love

12 Days of Christmas. Already coming off a shitty genre of music you have a song which requires you sing it multiple fucking times over, and then there's all the shitty novelty covers which far from enhancing the experience make the whole thing more cringy and exhausting. Top it off, it's one of those ones everyone expects you to sing along with or you're a fucken grinch, fucken bullshit song.

Tom Sawyer by Rush. Hellfire, anything by Rush, I can't stand the singer's voice.

Big Yellow Taxi by Joni Mitchell and covered by Counting Crows. I had to look up the actual name of the song because I just know it by the lyric " Paved paradise, put up a parking lot". It's just repetitive, depressing, and unimaginative.

There are some modern songs that do an effect that hurts my ears. I have no idea what any of the songs are called (I avoid them whenever I hear them), but for some reason it's become a thing for some pop/dance music to use a wonky rhythm that feels like being in a car with only the back windows open. The pressure is like waves that push and give way, over and over again, assaulting my ear drums.

Anyone know what I'm talking about? I would provide an example if I knew a concrete one to offer. It's so unpleasant, I don't understand how anyone can listen to such songs and enjoy them.

I'm not wasting energy hating something that doesn't deserve my attention.

Not a single mention of Nickelback at this point

Anything by Dylan.

Jacob (Wallflowers) or his dad Bob?

In the Air Tonight by Phil Collins. Yeah it's meant to be emotional, and I'm sure it was groundbreaking in the early 80's, but damn. It just does not hold up. Plenty of things from that time still hold up, and maybe I'm a philistine that isn't receptive to this particular "slow burn" but fuck me I'd rather listen to Barney the Dinosaur in Guantanamo

anything by Drake. not just because of his controversies, but because his lyrics are groan-inducing, his beats are passable at best, and his voice is the result of a failed government experiment to inject koala DNA into the Canadian population

Goo Goo Dolls Iris and it's not even close. Fuck that song to death.

The Salmon Dance by Chemical Brothers.

I'm Walking On Sunshine

The Shoop Shoop Song (It's in His Kiss) the Cher version.

Hearing it makes me nauseous, and I have no idea why.

Tennessee Whiskey by Chris Stapleton.

Real Love by Mary J Blige.

Should I Stay Or Should I Go by The Clash.

Pharrell Williams - Happy, this song makes me immediately angry. Idk if this says more about me or the song hehe

People really hate Mambo #5, so the little brother in me loves to bother people with it in Fortnite.

As for my own least favorite song/a song that I hate? Right now I really hate APT by Rose and Bruno Mars. I don’t know why, I think the lyrics are just banal, and the music video does everything I hate; namely I hate motion graphics where it’s just the heads of people, I hate the sped up film process, and I hate the Breakfast Club reference. No idea why it peeves me so, it’s not like other new songs have the deepest lyrics or better videos, but that one does.

Anything AI generated.

That's Not My Name by The Ting Tings

This song torture me in my teenage year whenever i switch on the radio, the station will play it so often that i would switch station to avoid it. It still torture me today and i wish i can trade that memory space for other more important stuff than this stupid song.

"US Male" by Elvis Presley. At least some of his other bad songs are funny. This one just sucks.

Newsong -The Christmas shoes. In the "let's make a sad song with a happy tune" this is a Debbie downer sure to sour the mood, complete with the "little kids sing a verse." Let's put the cherry on the cake and give it excessive radio play, especially during the holiday.

ABBA.

"Linda Lost a Lover" by I forget who and don't care. Near violent hatred, so glad it almost never gets played anymore.

Also "Annie's Song" (John Denver), sounds like uninspired 'I need a song' spam. But my late wife liked it, so I was glad she found something in it.

"Whatever you like" by TI. He lost all credibility with that one.

Dance Monkey. It used to play several times a day, every day of the week, on the store radio in the place I used to work. Ugh

I have always hated that song from Cher, "do you believe in life after love" since the very first time I heard it. I can't explain it, I just always fucking hated that song and the sounds of her voice in it.

One headlight - the wallflowers

Paradise by the dashboard light

Got My Mind Set on You

Not hate but Pinks Perfect annoys the ever living hell out of me because I think it sends exactly the wrong message.

We aren't perfect and that should be okay.

Never feel like your less than perfect?!

We all feel like we are less than perfect. Younger and at risk folks probably more so than most.

For me it's like those that need the most help, those who are at risk for self harm, are almost universally feeling less than perfect. The message says yeah I'm perfect? THIS is perfect? Okay well then its all down hill from here.

I think the messaging is just exactly the opposite of what pink is trying to achieve and it bothers me.

Empire State of Mind by JayZ

Heino - Blau blüht der Enzian

https://youtu.be/HBGnU4Q5pRg

This song is symptomatic for an entire genre of German music that just awakens murderous phantasies in me.

Put Me In Coach. Can't bother to look up the band but it's the worst.

I don't know if they have names or what they are but all of those mumble rap songs that are musically uninspired and lyrically unintelligible.

Thé Rolling Stones one that goes: Whoop Woop, Whoop Woop, Whoop Woop, Whoop Woop, Whoop Woop, Whoop Woop.

Kept being played on the old lady radio at work

? More details.

Dont know thé title, dont want to know thé title. Lady at work listens to classic rock station all day. They played thé same songs every days, sôme 3 times a day. And Whoop whoop was on around 3h when thé day is both ending and peaking. I guess its supposés to be pick you up song, but its really a boomer version of baby shark.

No lyrics that you remember?

There's a lot of woo woo in Sympathy for the Devil.

English ils second language, i need to concentrate to understand most songs. I am happy not to know that one. After a liitle searchin it it seems to ne woo woo from sympathy for thé devil.

woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo....

It has to be Sympathy.

"I just called you say I love you". I absolutely hate that looping melody.

Work work work work work work work

That song made millions and it makes me sad

Wonderwall or anything by Oasis, makes me wanna vomit

Christmas Shoes

The rap metal and pop as punk era. We get it, your mad at your Dad.

anything from Billie Eilish - I hate that barely audible "singing" style, like someone mumbling the lyrics of a half-remembered song under their nose while doing housework

I do not care for Will Wood

Bohemian Rhapsody

Hey Jude

Billy Joel Piano Man

Kids birthday. Around 2010. 11am till 6pm. Non stop Its Time for Africa.

I remember trying to sneak off the premises for 1-2 minutes of silence.

basically everything by Flo Rida that isn’t Low. I can't stand any of his songs except the apple bottom jeans

I didn't like AJR to begin with and then my sisters played their songs for months on end so now they're permanently on my shit list.

Anything Foo Fighters

This girl is on fire

Lady in Red.

I worked as a temp at an HR office one winter break during college. My boss was a nice enough old lady, but she had old school views on person tech. No one in the office was allowed headphones, but she was allowed a radio, which she tuned to some soft easy listening station. I swear every third song played was Lady in Red. It was the only song I put on the do-not-play list for our wedding.

Don't Speak No Doubt

Kiss Me Sixpence None The Richer

Jingoistic bro country on the TV at Texas road house. Don't even know the bands.

I really hate anything from Foo fighters, I think it's a really worthless band and I can't understand how they ve been so popular

The Manfred Mann version of Blinded by the Light, I find aggressively mediocre compared to Springsteen's. There's a less known Springsteen cover he did that I think is pretty good, though.

I caught myself singing the monster truck song while cutting grass - they just worm their way into your brain

Mary - Alex G

I simply can't with the vocals, I despise it. I was enjoying the song until he opened his mouth.

Umbrella by Rhianna and anything Miley Cyrus

cupid by fifty fifty and also literally anything by katseye

Toto Africa. Hated it when it first came out. Then got inundated a few years ago when it became a meme.

Hey there Delilah got played a LOT for a couple years and the repeditiveness got to me

Seabird by Alessi Brothers. Just can it already

"Children," by Robert Miles.

It became even worse when lyrics were added.

Reef - Lay your hands

Anything by Cake. I have a visceral reaction.

I still listen to my local FM alternative rock stations and can't stand Sombr, specifically that back to being friends song, which they play every two hours or so. The chorus lyrics make me feel dumber and the music itself is boring, I almost always switch stations when I hear it.

Admittedly it's somewhat of a generational thing, but then again I also disliked similar music from the past few decades so who knows.

Since it's local, you can try to call or email them and ask them to play it less. Of course don't be rude about it, only say that it's too frequently played and you want more variety. Maybe it'll make a few minutes of every day less annoying for you.

I Will Wait for You by Mumford and Sons.

Only place I ever heard it was at a soul-sucking job I hated.

Like a Virgin - Madonna.

It's Fuck the Fuckers by Fuckity McFucker

Wake me up from Avicii. Don't ask me why, i don't know, it just really grinds my gears. I do like other songs from him, so it's not that.

A bunch of modern pop music pisses me off. The synthetic, "clicky" drum machine that does 90% of the "music background" for some dude to mumble to just grinds my gears.

Me and my monkey

and anything Robbie Williams. Absolute dogshite.

Near the end of highschool I set a routine to wake up at 5am, go for a 3km run, then study until everyone else woke up. I did this every day for a couple months, and I always used "Misery" by Maroon 5 as my alarm, cus I thought it would be funny. Over 10 years from then I still suffer mental misery whenever I hear that song.

Favorite: Heart It Races by Dr. Dog

Least Favorite: Heart It Races by Architecture in Helsinki

The stupid pop song that came out to the tune of the old song everyone uses to practice piano

Leila. I mean the first half is ok, but the second half of masturbatory whining guitar solo can just fly into the sun.

Wonderwall by those two British guys that I don’t care for but can ever remember their name because it’s something really generic

Come Sail Away by Styx. Really anything by Styx is horrible but that song in particular is worse than nails on a chalkboard.

That stupid Florence and the machine song, you know the one. I fucking hate that dumb ass song.

I cannot abide What A Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong. It is so goddamn overplayed.

I said HEY!!! WHAT’S GOING ON?

I shot the sheriff. Second place is all you need is love by the Beatles, third is Sgt pepper's lonely hearts club band.

Sweet Child O' Mine - by GnR

I have listened to and actually played that song so much that I can't stand it anymore

My sister hates "closing time" I like it. Family fight

Beverly Hills by Weezer. Before that I kind of liked some of their singles but after I just hate them as people on a primal level.

I don't listen to music I hate enough to tell you titles I don't like. I got better things to do.
