    Songs I really cannot bear are Minnie Ripertons' Loving You and Eliza Dolittles' Pack Up. Would rather eat a bowl of cotton wool than listen to these.

    Is the Eliza Doolittle song the one with her saying "tweet tweet" etc at the end? What the hell is that about?! :confused:

    Imagine by John Lennon. Coming from a millionaire, this song was pretty hard to stomach. Give Mind Games a listen instead. :)

    Anaconda by Ninny Mangy, and whoever is shouting along with her.
    Giggle, flutter the bats stuck to eyelids and make appointment to have biiig bum implants from proceeds of 'song'.

    Apparently you ain't got a sense of humour if you don't find this really funny. (So several folks have told me) :o:o:o

    There have been so many truly awful songs released in the last year or so, I dare not start a list

    Gloria Gaynor - I Will Survive

    I've hated this song ever since I was a kid, now I'm in my late 30's I still hate it. I also loathe most pop songs that are released these days.

    ^^^ As above

    Also anything at all by ABBA, even worse than the drivel that comes from X Factor.

    Iris - The Goo-Goo Dolls

    Rock Star - Nickelback

    We Built this City - Starship

    O Superman - Laurie Andersen

    That shite that Kid Rock did which was a mix of Sweet Home Alabama and Werewolves ( 2 terrible cover versions wrapped into one)

    Is This Love - Whitesnake

    Don't Stop Believing - Journey


    I love rock music but IMHO the above listed are just vomit inducing ear filth

    You raise me up by Westlife. The song itself is terrible but more then anything I hate how their version is held by most people as the definitive version of the song when it is as bland and insipid as any of their other work.

    Beyoncé - Single Ladies

    Absolutely horrendous and it depresses me that people think it's good in any way or form.

    Runners up

    Savage Garden - Truly Madly Deeply
    Psy - Gangam Style
    LeAnn Rimes - How do I Live
    Katy Perry - Roar ( a song I thought was aimed at 3 year olds)

    I do agree with "All of Me", it seems to be everywhere to the extent where that high pitched "all" might well drive me completely insane.

    ............overall though, even these few responses show how subjective music can be-some of the songs hated on this thread are some of my favourites.

    Beyonce: Listen - shrill and overwrought
    Whitney Houston: every ballad she ever did but I'm not too keen on the uptempo ones either
    Beyonce: XO - a horrible plodding backing track and melody - actually makes me feel a bit queasy
    Peter Bjorn and John: Young Folks (though I love other tracks of theirs, e.g. Second Chance)
    Tom Jones & Cerys Matthews: Baby It's Cold Outside
    Robbie Williams and Nicole Kidman: Somethin' Stupid

    And now for the 'standout' tracks by, imo, the 3 most overrated bands of our time. I just don't get what all the fuss is about.
    Killers: Mr Brightside and pretty much all the others
    Kings of Leon: Temple
    Arctic Monkeys: Arabella

    That 'Come on Eileen' song. Sorry I don't know who it's by. I just always hear it at weddings, family get togethers, that kind of thing and I hate it.

    surprised abba have had some nods.... ok a few tracks were dodgy but generally they produced class pop..

    anyway..

    CHRISTMAS SONGS .... im sick to death of ALL of them now... overplaying them has totally lost any feeling i had for them.,... and i did like them first time around (17 when slade/wizzard first charted).

    There's a song that is always played in a particular well-known clothing store (rhymes with 'boo hook') & it has an American man whining 'I remember every sunset/I remember every word you said/And I'll be there in a heartbeat, heartbeat.'
    It's ******* terrible. Cannot stand it!

    Weezer: Buddy Holly. "Oo-ee-oo I look just like Buddy Holly Oh-oh, and you're Mary Tyler Moore". Horrible.
