[Blue_In_AK]

1. Torn Between Two Lovers and

I've Never Been to Me. Worst songs EVER.

[bluesbassman]

2. Well everything by the so-called artist Ke$ha, but TiK-ToK in particular.

I always post links to the songs I'm discussing, but in this case, not just no, but HELL NO!!!

It's not just that her song annoys me, but her entire persona and what it represents annoys and disgusts me.

[OriginalGeek]

14. "...not just no, but HELL NO!!! ..."

You, sir, are a gentleman and a scholar.

[Initech]

61. I see your Ke$ha and I raise you Farrah Abraham.

16. I've seen one of those artists live

Let's just say I had to pay my wife back for letting me go to all the metal shows I've seen over the years...



But at least it wasn't Nickleback.

[jakeXT]

29. Celine Dion ? /nt

[OriginalGeek]

35. ack! no lol

I don't think I could be married to a lady who would make me go to a Celine Dion show...

[raccoon]

4. Macarthur Park, no question about it. nt

[Ron Obvious]

5. You're having my baby...

So cloying it can cause diabetes.

[Sivart]

6. We built this city

We built this city.

I hesitated to comment becuase I had to think of this song in order to do it.

Kind of wish I hadn't now, but its too late.

[OmahaBlueDog]

25. I've never gotten the "We've Built This City" hate

Is it really more annoying than, for example, "Disco Duck" by Rick Dees, or the "Hamster Dance Song." I just see "WBTC" as a fun, mindless pop song. Yes, it's hard to reconcile that it's by the same group (sorta) that sang "White Rabbit", but that's OK.

For the record, the most annoying song of all time is "I've Never Been to Me" by Charlene.

[KamaAina]

7. My Humps

[Denninmi]

8. That damned Lee Greenwood thing that is now a Bagger anthem.

God Bless The USA. I'm great with the underlying sentiment, but the song is sappy pseudo patriotism.

[OmahaBlueDog]

26. Add me to that list

..and it's not like I don't like other country songs that have become bagger anthems. For example, I like Aaron Tippin's "Where the Stars and Stripes and the Eagle Fly." I'm generally good with "God Bless America" -- especially if Kate Smith is singing it. But I never liked "God bless the USA"

[Populist_Prole]

27. I know, it's AWFUL isn't it?

More sickingly sweet than a bowl of sugar lumps smothered in honey.

[BillStein]

9. copacabana

or anything manilovian, for that matter

[libodem]

11. You got it!

'Mandy', is particularly loathsome. And, 'I write the songs'. Gawdawful. Barf.

[7wo7rees]

65. He didn't write that song

Bruce Johnston wrote "I Write the Songs"

[lastlib]

10. Nilsson, "Coconut"!!

(And ""Thank God I'm A Country Boy" would definitely make my list!)

Clint Holmes, "Playground in My Mind"
Bobby Whoeverthehellhewas, "Don't Worry, Be Happy"
Everything Helen Reddy Ever Recorded
Everything The Captain & Tenille Ever Recorded
Almost Every Country Song Ever Recorded
Every Disco/Rap/Hip-Hop Song Ever Recorded

[Still Blue in PDX]

36. You don't like Muskrat Love?

[lastlib]

39. No, but I'm a big fan of "Prairie-Dog Sodomy"!

.

[jakeXT]

41. Not even Henry Kissinger liked it

[eShirl]

12. THIS: Telephone Man (1977)

Lounge forgive me

[yellowcanine]

13. In the Year 2525.

I hate that song.

[OriginalGeek]

15. I understand the sentiment

but thinking of the song reminds me of being a little kid riding around with my mom and dad when they were both happy and alive...so I'm not quite ready to toss it but I promise not to play or sing it around you.

[Jenoch]

17. I too have a few songs that I detest.

Elvira by the Oak Ridge Boys would have to be at the top of the list. Any song that makes it to novelty status would have to be considered as well.

I confess to having "Play that Funky Music" on my iPod just for nostolgia.

[Blue_In_AK]

19. I like that song, too.

Not too long ago I saw a cartoon on Facebook or somewhere with a doctor standing beside his deceased patient and the caption, "He laid down the boogie and played that funky music." Made me smile.

[Ahpook]

18. Changes by Black Sabbath

They are such a great band, but this happened

[Tobin S.]

22. I'm thinking Ozzy snuck in the studio

and threw that one in the mix without the other guys knowing until it was too late. It's my least favorite Sabbath tune as well.

[Doc_Technical]

20. "Ring my Bell" by Anita Ward

[LiberalElite]

21. December 1963 (Oh what a night) - Four Seasons

[BlueJazz]

23. There's actually very few songs (on any worst list) that everybody dislikes.

I'm one of the weird ones that don't find "We built this city" all THAT bad....Not one of my favorites but ..ah..ok...

[mythology]

24. For me the song that annoys me the most right now

is that song "Redneck Woman" by Gretchen Wilson. Partially because I really don't like rednecks having grown up around too many of them and my stepdad's family still being rednecks. But it wouldn't bother me nearly as much if I didn't have to hear it constantly. The person who most frequently provides the music at one of the work outs I do, has that song in her workout playlist. So I hear it at least three times a week.

Fortunately the rest of her playlist, while mostly not things I would choose to listen to, doesn't make me want to stab myself in the ear with a railroad spike. Plus she's almost impossibly nice, so it's hard to even get annoyed with her.

[Populist_Prole]

28. Phil Collins 'In the Air Tonight'

Holy hell what a vapid, repetitive snoozer of a song that goes on forever. I swear in the 80's every cheesy-ass top-40 radio station played that tune 3 times an hour. I hate it.

[Art_from_Ark]

30. Too many to list individually

Generally speaking,

Any gangsta rap song
Any KISS song
Any Toby Keith song
Any Stevie Wonder song
Any Paul Anka song (with special honors going to "Having My Baby&quot
Any Neil Sedaka song (with special honors going to "Happy Birthday Sweet 16&quot
Just about any Frank Sinatra song (with special honors going to "Something Stupid&quot
Just about any Beach Boys song (with special honors going to "God Only Knows&quot
Any song with the words "little girl" in it
Just about any song with "my bay-beeeee" in it
Any song with commentary
And then, there's "My Boyfriend's Back"

[nomorenomore08]

48. *Any* Stevie Wonder song? Sure he can get sappy at times, but come on...

"Superstition"? "Higher Ground"?

[OriginalGeek]

52. Seriously

Stevie Wonder is a goddamn genius. I feel bad for Art.

Art, I'm not saying you're wrong - you get to like what you like and not like what ya don't wanna - I just feel bad for ya. Stevie is a joy to me.

[Art_from_Ark]

74. For some reason, they all become earworms to me

It didn't used to be like that.

The same thing's happening with Diana Ross songs. And Gary Puckett and the Union Gap. Even Petula Clark. I could listen to them all back in the '60s, and even until recently they brought back some good memories, but now...

But I can still listen to most British Invasion stuff. As The Who once sang, "I can't explain (it)"

[Art_from_Ark]

73. They all become earworms to me

especially "My Cherie Amour"

[olddots]

31. I won't mention my list

A lot of very popular music makes -a- me-a-wanna puke

[pinboy3niner]

64. I hear you

I actually like a lot of these songs on the most-hated lists, and there are some VERY popular songs that I hate.

One that I find annoying is on all the lists of the top rock songs of all time. But I'm not gonna reveal it. Uh-uh. Like the lady said in the movie, "I'll never teeeee-elll..."

Okay I'll share it with just you--but keep it under your hat...

'Brown Eyed Girl'

[B Calm]

32. American Pie

[From The Ashes]

33. Honey...

by Bobby Goldsboro

[Still Blue in PDX]

38. I loved what the Smothers Brothers did with (to) that song. nt

[Chan790]

34. The entirety of dubstep.

Literally the entire genre. It sounds like microphone squelch and warning klaxons being played over each other in an attempt to create recurring pattern. All they need now is screaming babies and the UN would declare it a violation of international conventions against torture.

[nomorenomore08]

49. +1

Dubstep... ooh dubstep... *shudder*

[Revanchist]

53. I like one dubstep video, the one where the little girl seriously messes up a pedophile

But the worst has to be Screamo, especially the band BrokenCyde, a mix between unintelligible screaming, bad auto-tune and terrible white boy rapping (depending on the song).

[Erose999]

37. Freebird or Stairway or Hotel California. Pretty much any of the 70's arena rock.

[NuclearDem]

40. Aw, why the hating on Mmmbop?

I actually like that song.

[FloridaJudy]

42. Tom Jones' "She's a Lady"

That one makes me want to smash my radio/MP3 player.

Oh, and a pet peeve, "Little Drummer Boy". Rah-tum-tah-tah-tum, my ass. They start that particular piece of drek earlier and earlier each year.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

43. I like the Meow Mix jingle and also YMCA

I also like the John Denver tune Thank God I'm A Country Boy (or at least I don't have a dramatically negative reaction to it when I hear it). I agree that Styx (almost anything by them) has me switching the radio dial immediately. Same thing for Captain and Tennille and anything by The Eagles.

One that's not on the list is You Light Up My Life by Debbie Boone. I run to the remote to switch channels every time those Lifestyle Lift commercials come on.

[RiffRandell]

44. Can't Touch This by MC Hammer.

As was the video, which MTV played about every 5 minutes when the stupid song came out.

[MountainMama]

46. You're all wrong....

the worst song ever ever in the history of the universe is "Mr. Roboto" by Styx. Horrible, horrible song.

And then "Muskrat Love."

[One_Life_To_Give]

47. Mexican Radio

On edit I would add Bolero but for it brings back memories of Bo running down the beach.

[nomorenomore08]

50. "I wish I was in Tijuana, eatin' barbecued iguana..."

I actually find that song tolerable, even somewhat amusing. But I can understand being annoyed by it.

[nomorenomore08]

51. Anything by Boney M. But "Rivers of Babylon" might be the worst.

[Throd]

54. Anything by B.F.D. (Bob Fucking Dylan)

[Bjorn Against]

55. There were some pretty awful songs on that list, but none of them can compare to this Teabagger rap

If you thought Christian Rock was bad, Christian Rap is just about the most embarassing thing on this planet. I warn you this is teabagger music and it contains explicit racism, but it is so embarrassing that you will probably burst out laughing at the offensive parts. This is one of the most pathetic things you will ever hear...

[Trajan]

56. Another "I hate this" thread ...

Now it's time to up the ante and go to their Facebook page and tell them and their fans how much you hate them ...

It's what haters do ....

Btw ... In the year 25 25 grates on my soul ... yet I don't hate it - I change the station ....

[Revanchist]

57. Although I already posted my response, I have to ask...

Am I wrong for liking/being able to tolerate the majority of the choices that have been posted in this thread?

[kwassa]

58. Anything with autotune vocals

which is much of current radioplay.

Singing like robots.

[Revanchist]

59. Not even if it's David Attenborough, Jane Goodall, and Carl Sagan?

[Initech]

60. Here's a few:

[JeffHead]

62. This song annoys the shit out of me!

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

63. Achy Breaky Heart

Anything by the Eagles
Anything by Michael McDonald, whose voice makes my ears bleed

[7wo7rees]

66. I wanna rock and roll all night -and party every day

Kiss's best song sucks.

[Populist_Prole]

68. It's nowhere near Kiss' best song. Maybe their most well known, but not the best

[Revanchist]

69. Better than the cover by Posion

[Populist_Prole]

71. Gakkk!!

I can just hear the producer: "Make it lighter, softer, more superficial sounding ( if that's possible ) than the original...and make it have a shallow, let's party vibe in keeping with the hair rock genre".

They succeeded. Hair rock is to hard rock what a bag of Fritos is to a square meal.

[Revanchist]

72. The thing that annoy's me the most about their cover

Is the way they pronounce the word every in the line "And Party Every Day!" it's supposed to be three syllables, not two!

[Trailrider1951]

67. That BeeGee's song

Dear god, what a whiney, hubris-filled piece of shit.

Come to think of it, ANY Bee Gee's song.

With McArthur Park a close second.

[olddots]

70. okay the song Feelings

early 70's maudlin ballad=== vile dog shit -thankfully it was a one hit wonder oh oh oh feelings nothing more than feelings
