Does anyone else hate this song?

Or if not what song do you hate for no reason

It goes :

"I've been so many places in my life and time"

And I think it's called A Song For You

It's really popular it seems on talent show auditions and I can't for the life of me think why, I think it's proper rubbish.

I also hate And I'm Telling You I'm Not Going for the same reason

A mystifyingly popular song

Anyone else?

"All I wanna Do is make love to you" by Heart

She sees this pillock who goes out in the pouring rain with no coat or brolly, and decides he should father her child?

Asking for trouble, that.

Yeah Fairytale in New York and Imagine will both have me launching myself at any device with the nerve to play them.

Awful awful songs, both.

Also Torn by Natalie Imbruglia.

ANYTHING by those absolute fake-folky waistcoated, flat-capped bellends who do all the twiddly-Dee but actually come from Richmond. I get violent when I hear them.

ScreamingValenta · 29/09/2018 23:40

Anything by Jive Bunny Angry.

Wowthisisreal · 29/09/2018 23:41

@TillyVonMilly I thought I was the only one who loathed Umbrella!

Donthugmeimscared · 29/09/2018 23:42

Ed bloody boring Shearan. My dd loves him which makes it worse. I also hate perfect day.

LetsGoFlyAKiteee · 29/09/2018 23:44

@tigercub50 yes!!!! They have recently rediscovered Rude by whoever and keep playing that! Really the dad isn't being rude.. He asked for his opinion and he said no! Oh and the Jason Durlo one... They overplay that as well

Another one... Dancing on my own.. The callum Scott cover. Love Robyn and her one but that.. He just sounds whiney. Even her slow version sounds nothing like that.

Aceinthehole · 29/09/2018 23:45

Don't even start me on Imagine, what utter dilge.

Love Shack, banned at my wedding.

Brian eyed girl, get fucked.

Natalie Imbruglia, Torn. Not for me.

Yes, to PP who said Eternal with the "Yeah, Yeah, Yeah...." and the "my lord you do...." can you not, please?

thenightsky · 29/09/2018 23:48

George Michael's different corners is my bad luck song.

It was on the radio in the background when I answered the phone to awful news.

I leap up to switch it off fast now, 32 years later.

DioneTheDiabolist · 29/09/2018 23:56

Chain Reaction by Diana Ross
Frankie (Do you remember me)
Let's Marvin Gaye. MG is a legend not a fucking verb.Angry

MrJollyLivesNextDoor · 29/09/2018 23:57

I should have known better by Jim Diamond

Luckily never hear it these days

Except now in my mind 😬

MrJollyLivesNextDoor · 29/09/2018 23:59

Also anything by Sean Paul

Why does he have to keep saying 'baby gurrrrl' repeatedly

The twat

Waitingforsherlock · 30/09/2018 00:12

Yes, yes, yes to most of those above, although I do love Fairytale of New York. Can’t stand Perfect by Fairground Attraction, gives me the absolute rage. Know where you are coming from about Love Shack. Grrrrr

MrsMoggy · 30/09/2018 00:26

Can’t stand “I will always love you”. Any version. Overhyped crap

Iscreamforbenandjerrys · 30/09/2018 00:32

Mariah Carey, every single song. Adele, ditto.

SuburbanRhonda · 30/09/2018 00:34

Angels by Robbie Williams.

Will always remind me of a particularly grim staff Christmas party when my boss and several others were linking arms and swaying while singing it. Then one of them fell over. Worst party ever.

ProfessionallyUnoffended · 30/09/2018 00:35

One of the worst things about Christmas is having to hear that bloody awful song, Stop the Calvary! I hate it!!!

TinklyLittleLaugh · 30/09/2018 00:35

The Whole of the Moon or anything by the Waterboys who make such turgid, plodding, boring shite.

But Lineman of the County? Come on that's sublime.

tinyradish · 30/09/2018 00:39

Any ABBA song.

Most Beyonce songs (mainly 'single ladies')

Calledyoulastnightfromglasgow · 30/09/2018 00:39

All that awful shrieking that Mariah Carey does. Just dreadful

Beyoncé - breathy and tuneless

I literally can’t stand it

Calledyoulastnightfromglasgow · 30/09/2018 00:40

Oh yeah - that “umbrella” song makes me want to vomit. That many syllables should not be put to music

Ledehe · 30/09/2018 00:42

Ed Sheeran Perfect is my most hated song. Then he brought out a Beyonce version. Then the Andrea Bochelli version. Now there's a dance version.

It's going to be first dance at a wedding I'm going to next year.....I don't think it's acceptable to leave the wedding because of the first dance song

Breadnroses · 30/09/2018 00:49

Bonnie Tyler’s Total Eclipse of the Heart.
Can’t bloody stand it.

CazzieCatsRock · 30/09/2018 00:55

I Will Survive - Gloria Gaynor! Have never met anyone else, ever, who cannot stand it either. Maybe I'm just weird....

Threeminis · 30/09/2018 00:59

George Ezra - Shotgun. It's shit.
