Tie between that Uncle Kracker song and this one country rock song that I dont know the name or artist of. Starts off with a gut saying "jingle jingaling" or something.

I don't just change the station if these come on. Radio just goes off, no more music that day.

Happy birthday, there's a bunch of other traditional birthday songs passed down in other languages and cultures that are so much better than happy birthday

Sweater weather. I already didn't like the downtempo vibe, but it got painfully overplayed back in the day. Unfortunately, I still hear it occasionally. Anything but that, please.

[–] Ribbons@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Toss up between Jenny (867-5309) for being absolutely disgusting on a conceptual level for glorifying stalker behavior or Owner of a Lonely Heart for going fucking nowhere and then having the audacity to drop a blaring synth note like it's a crescendo before going back to nothing.

MmmBop. I hated it the first time I heard it, I hate it now, and I only have to be reminded of it's existence and it will play in my head because it is so fucking catchy that somebody must have sacrificed the minimum of one newborn to some dark deity that thrives one human suffering.

My old boss used to die of cringe any time I started humming this song at the office.

Imagine dragons - cutthroat.

I refuse to believe that this is a real song. Id themselves are garbage in general, but this is just insane.

"What's going on" by Four Non-Blondes - what a childish nepo baby song and what a dumb fucking name for a band.

I fucking hate "Dreams" by the cranberries. Can't stand that song.

[–] moonlight@fedia.io 1 points 6 days ago

I wouldn't say I hate it, but for me it's linger that I can't listen to. I really love zombie though.

That Mariah Carey one. You know the one.

Black Hole Sun.

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

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!

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.

[–] proudblond@lemmy.world 16 points 1 week ago (8 children)

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.

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.

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.

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

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.
