For whatever reason. Happy or sad. For me it's Roy Orbison's Crying. All because of Only Fools and Horses!

Angels - Robbie Williams. It was played to death when released and every compilation CD I bought had this song on it. After the 200th time of listing to it, I got fed up. I still can't listen to it now.

Most things by Dean Martin, my late grandad's favourite singer, especially Please release me, which he sang (very well too, he had a good voice) constantly. They just remind me of him and I miss him.

Ellie Goulding - How long will I love you?
Weirdly, this song immediately makes me feel so sad I have to turn it over/off. Not weird really, considering stuff. |

The entire 'Ooh La La' album - The Small Faces
The entire 'Rave Up' album - The Yardbirds The entire 'SF Sorrow' album - The Pretty Things The entire 'Wheels on Fire' album - Cream My dad went through a bad patch, which had him taking a summer break from his job. He lazed around the house, drinking and smoking pot and playing one of those albums non-stop. Sometimes, did all those at same time. I was resentful as I'd rather be in England with friends instead of out there in Hong Kong where he was working (my parents were divorced hence my annual summer visit to wherever he was). I think I was 12 at the time. Mind you, that's nothing when comparing to one night when he sang/screamed "I am the god of hellfire and I bring you fire!" repeatedly at two chickens he was trying to cook on a BBQ while his friends drank themselves into a stupor. Dad didn't believe me when I told him next morning. He couldn't remember it at all. He doesn't like being reminded of that summer nowadays. Hm, I wonder why. ![]() 'Don't You Want Somebody to Love?' - Jim Carrey I was trapped during a 7-hour flight with this kid next to me playing that song repeatedly from his CD Walkman. His headphone was leaky, which meant hearing Carrey's voice singing "Don't you want somebody to love? Don't you need somebody to love? I'd really like somebody to love, but it's hard to find somebody to love" over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over. I was honestly this close to punching the kid in the head. The song was still playing in my head hours after I left the airport, for god's sake. |

Rihannas song "what now" going through a difficult time personally and that sums it up for me. Everytime I hear it I get choked up and have to turn it off/leave the room.

Pleasure At The Fairground - Simply Red. I have a total and utter [irrational] hatred for this song.
Golden Brown - The Stranglers. Me and my OH argue about this as he is a music snob and loves this song, he cannot understand why I hate it. I just do... it gives me the creeps. Also I think Michael Buble is sinister, it's just the feeling I get when I see or hear him. |

I actually didn't answer the OP properly.
These are songs I cannot abide, not songs I cannot listen to "anymore" |

Santana's Samba Pa Ti spoiled forever by the M&S voice-over.

Pretty much anything that was popular from around 2004-06. That was a real low point for music.
KT Tunstall, Gnarls Barkley, Scissor Sisters, Katie Melua, James Blunt, Natasha Bedingfield, Craig David Truly awful. |

Heartbeats by Jose Gonzales came on the radio at work thursday night and I had to turn it off.
Somewhere over the rainbow, let it be, songbird and tears in heaven were played at my baby's funeral (like heartbeats) and I can't deal with hwaring them now, which is a shame as I love those songs. I also read a book about child abuse where someone had to review evidence of sexual abuse on a 6 year old, and in the background "we're walking in the air" was playing. Can't listen to that now either. |

The Living Years - it makes me feel sad, as it was on the funeral sound track of a beloved relative.

AC/DC - back in black. The most overplayed song ever. Can't stand it now. Same for Nirvana - teen spirit

All the things she said by Tatu. Reminds me off the most horrible dark period of my life and even hearing it makes me uncomfortable.

Most songs by Paul McCartney and his vocal lead Beatles songs.
Hey Jude and Let it Be just make me feel violent. |
