That Mariah Carey one. You know the one.

I Will Survive - Something about this song just makes me murderous.

Don't Stop Believing - By the gods, please do stop. I love Journey, but just don't play this.

Bohemian Rhapsody - I think I'm just really tired of it. It's been held up at such a pinnacle for so long and played far too often and I just can't anymore. I don't care. Turn it off.

All I Wanna Do Is Have Some Fun by Sheryl Crow, or any song where the artist is doing that annoying kind-of-singing-but-also-just-talking thing (NOT to be confused with rap, I do enjoy lots of rap and hip-hop). It's hard to explain. I think Red Hot Chili Peppers has a song where they do it too, and it annoys the fuck outta me.

Shake it Off by Taylor Swift.

When it came out, I was a regular gym-goer. I would spend an hour and a half at the gym three days a week and hear that song at least three times every single time I was there. And then you'd hear it anywhere else that played music as well, like stores. It was just too much.

Gonna go against the grain here with something classical: Pachabel’s Canon in D. I liked it when I was a kid, for at least the first 10 or 20 times I heard it, but since then I’ve probably heard it thousands of times, and I’m not even a strings player. I’m not exaggerating either; it’s in so many commercials, weddings, movies, just over loudspeakers in the grocery store.. ugh it’s inescapable. Pretty the first few times, sure, but it’s so aggressively bland.

Kokomo

Currently, that shitty pop song that sampled "Blue" by Eiffle 65. It was already a perfectly good club song (imo) and there was no need to ruin it.

Probably Acky Breaky Heart.

It's weird how many people are mentioning older songs, because most modern songs are absolute trash. Just a refrain, singing the same 3 autotuned notes again and again.

U2

Aerosmith - love in an elevator

Any christmas shit

Black Hole Sun.

It's a tedious, grating and ridiculously repetitive dirge.

There are some interesting takes in here.

Take me to church by Hozier

Anything written by Sabrina Cuntpunter.

What a toxic, abusive, petty little shit she seems to proudly declare herself as.

"I'll be riding shotgun, underneath the hot sun".... It's the most aggressively boring thing I've ever heard

Sweet Caroline - Neil Diamond. I’m from New England so I hear it often and the back story makes me cringe every time and I haaate it

KPop. I can’t stand the boy bands and the weird fan culture.

Radio Ga Ga by Queen.

I had to listen to that shit played on loop for a week straight when the cruise ship I was working on chose it to be used to constantly stress test the PA system. Any time I hear it now, I get extremely angry and want to break something.

Anything by Morrissey. The histrionics are annoying enough but I think he's an objectively bad musician. He seems to just meander around with no discernable melody. Like, what are you even trying to do man? I'm pretty certain the actually catchy Smiths songs were written by someone else.

Runner up: Hold My Hand by Hootie and the Blowfish. If it comes on at a place of business I will immediately walk out of that business.

Sweet Home Alabama

When I still listened to the radio in the car, it started on one station, so I switched to another rock station. It was playing there too, on a different part. Switched to yet another rock station and it was also playing that terrible song!

Most Justin Bieber songs but I despise his early stuff. I heard baby way too much back when you couldn't escape it

Edit: I thought of an even worse one, pon pon shit from cyberpunk. That song is the only reason bodyheat isn't my go to station in that game.

Dance Monkey, for personal reasons

Body like a Back Road 🤢🤮

All About That Bass by Meghan Trainor. It is the only song I seriously hate, and also the only artist I seriously hate hearing. I don't love the message, and Ialso don't like the delivery at all. I think a factor is also how overplayed it was when it first came out.

The Piña Colada Song.

It enrages me. I hear the first note and I want to break a window. If it comes on in the car, I almost break my wrist with how quickly I turn it off.

There are two songs that I will verbally abuse a movie for having on its soundtrack.

"What A Wonderful World" by Louis Armstrong, and "Fly Me To The Moon" by Frank Sinatra.

If you put those songs in...anything, you're a fucking hack.

WAWW has been used both straight and ironically TO DEATH. It has been played over beautiful and horrific scenes. There's nothing you can use it to say that hasn't already been said by someone more clever than you.

FMTTM is the song completely uncreative people put in movies that have something to do with the moon. "We have an establishing shot of the moon and we need some licensed music for the soundtrack. Gee, now what's the hackiest laziest most cliched pissbabyest lack of a brain stemiest thing we could put here?" "You're not going to believe this, but I found a Sinatra song that might just be a lazy enough choice. It's already been used in all the other movies, is that lazy enough?"

Weezer - Beverly Hills.

Weezer's only good song is Buddy Holly. All their other songs are terrible. And Beverly Hills is the worst.

Butterfly by Crazy Town

“I’m blue da da Dee da da da. “

Just typing it out makes me cringe.

Game Over by Falling In Reverse

Just listen to the first line and you'll understand

Kokomo

boy k-pop

also white rap like the Beastie boys, Eminem, kid rock, limp bizkit, macklemore, vanilla ice, the list goes on.

Pretty much every song played by Walmart radio

I might as well go first: Emilia - Big Big World

I absolutely hated it when it was released and played everywhere, and I recently accidentally stumbled across it, and to the surprise of nobody, I still loathe it.

• Melody of a lullaby.
• Least interesting chord progression in existence.
• Lyrics as if they were written by a 12 year old.
• Annoying motifs.

Honorable mention: How you remind me. I'm not just bandwagoning on nicklelback hate here, I actually kinda like them, at least their first album. But that song is so overplayed and overrated I simply cannot stand it.
