Your most-hated song

[spittybug]

As a proud American I'm glad to see that no one has said "the Star Spangled Banner".

For me, no rap crap, not a fan of the disarray called jazz, the big band era or grunge.
Give me rock, prog rock, classical or maybe even industrial or electronica.

• Saga
• Disturbed
• Rush
• British invasion rock
• Heavy classical

Anything by Hootie and the Blow Fish.

If I had to pick one of thier worst it would be "Only wanna be with you."

Lol. I just went to a Hootie concert where the owner was Barenaked Ladies. It was a hell of a show.

TBF is was more of a BnL fan back in that era, but Hootie was pretty good.

Any of you guys remember Barry Manilow? "Mandy" or "I Write the Songs" both used to make me physically ill.

Barely Man Enough

Boy, I could make a long list of artists that I can throw on this list....

Dave Matthews "crash" ranks right up there with "mombo #5" and "macerrena", but this one takes the cake:


I am now cursed to be mmm bonk bonk, chick chick-chick-ahhh for the rest of the night.(sorry if you do too)

 

[brewingmeister]

Pearl jam, or anything with Eddie Vedder. Ugh. I've broken radios.

 

[jrgtr42]

Red Solo Cup - kill that one to death. A lot. Along with most modern "country" though most of it is pretty much rock N roll with a hat and singing through their nose.
Most top 40 stuff.
anything by Celine Dion or Barbara Streisand
Not necessarily what my kiddo likes but the ones he listens to all the time - dinosaurs marching, wheels on the bus, mercifully not baby shark...
Even some stuff I like generally I can't deal with on occasion.

I don't hate the song, but I do hate the disservice most of the sh!tty pop singers do to it when they sing at opening ceremonies. Its like a challenge to see how many extra notes and ranges they can hit with blatant disregard for its meaning.

Having said this, one of the best performance I've seen was Boys 2 Men at a 49er game circa mid 90s. I was expecting something atrocious but they gave our anthem the respect it deserves. I sort of tolerate their music because of that performance.

Rant warning......All music sucks when it's forced upon you by some d-bag. I'm pretty sure if you look up the definition of maturity in Websters, it'll say "when you realize that nobody wants to hear your crappy music".

True story- I was camping with the family a few weeks ago. About four campsites from us was an older couple, maybe in their '70s. During the day they would blare some type of Neil Diamond stuff. WTF?
A We are camping. Nobody should be blaring music. Doesn't matter if it's death metal, rap or crappy elevator music
B I'm pretty sure they are the type of people who would moan and groan if some one was cranking up rap or hip hop.

About two days a week I commute to work by bike and I've noticed other cyclists have blue tooth speakers. Don't care what they are playing, it's a douchey thing to do. Doesn't matter if you're blaring from a car, bike, airplane, scooter or boat. Nobody thinks you are cool or are jamming out with you as you go by.

So even if I like your achy breaky song (I don't), be respectful and don't force it upon others.

Rant over. You're welcome.

 

[soccerdad]

OK, I'll bite.

I wish America The Beautiful was our National Anthem.

I think The Star Spangled Banner kinda blows.

 

[Robert65]

I think The Star Spangled Banner kinda blows.

But it started as a drinking song! (And, yeah, when you're drunk is the only time even YOU think you sound good singing it...)

It's my understanding he's awesome. He plays at all the PGA events. I think they love him. Iirc he was inaugurated into PGA hof recently? I like bnl too, alot. Was trying to find an old acoustic of them doing be my Yoko ono. Couldn't find it, dang it.

Man, it's almost painful to listen to manilow, have to agree here. Bolton too, maybe more so. Definetly more so.

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Certainly there are many songs that I dislike, poorly written or poorly performed/recorded. The worst of them, the song of least merit that might as well be spoken by a soulless computer is “achy breaky heart” I absolutely hate that song.

This brought to mind 'flirtin' with disaster ' by Molly Hatchet.
Never heard of them?! You are lucky.

Bolton too, maybe more so

Whats your favorite Michael Bolton song? I mean its hard to choose with them all being so good. Better ask the Bob's.

Sounds like somebody has a case of the Monday's !

Surely someone hates this.

-5 finger death punch...emo for hillbillies.

Never thought about it quite that way before, but you're right, it kinda is!

I've seen BnL live 3 times, twice with Steve, the last time after he left.

On topic, I listen to about anything but have a deep dislike of about 99% of "country" music. I've also determined that most everything I can hear on any pop related channels from 2000 to present is almost unlistenable.

When my nephew was 2-3, he used to sing that ALL the time! I always thought it was hilarious...

When I was in college, I'd spend the summers working in an Alaska salmon cannery where the crew leaders got to pick the music. They had only brought a couple of tapes each and we were working 16 hour days, 7 days a week, so we got sick of all of them pretty fast. However, Garth Brooks No Fences album and Body Count's Body Count album definitely stood out from the rest.

I'll just leave this here

 

[ProblemChild]

Got another - heard it by the radio by accident - "We built this City" by Starship. Now there is the mark of a once band that was good struggling for relevance and dying a miserable death.....

 

[jafo28]

Sheryl Crow, the absolute worst.

 

[Kent88]

@bleme what company, and what decade?

I know a guy who worked in management where they'd process salmon.

Ha! Long ago I worked on a loading dock. Several times arguments over control of the radio almost lead to blows.

A friend and I actually have a podcast about songs we hate, though I'll refrain from promoting it here as I don't know what the rules around such things are. Currently high in our "worst song" power rankings are Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes - "Home" and Mumford and Sons - "The Banjolin Song."

On my own personal "most hated" rankings would also be Cake - "Sheep Go To Heaven," Yeah Yeah Yeahs - "Off With Your Head," and George Ezra's "Budapest." I could go on at length as to what I hate about each of these songs but I'll spare you all the paragraphs - I genuinely love talking trash about music I hate, though.

I'm not sure if I should thank you, but I do t know any of those songs and so now I must listen to them.

Akin to "taste this, it's terrible!"
