Midnight at The Oasis by The Brand New Heavies. Bland.
Anything by M People. Uber Bland.
Man! I Feel Like A Woman by Shania Twain. I Work in a club and anytime we have a do with older women as the guests this has them racing to the dance floor. A lot of flesh gets released. Grin

Come on Eileen.

ginghambox · 09/02/2019 20:20

Imagine - John Lennon
Hey Jude - Beatles (in fact most Beatles songs)
Any rap "song".

IndigoApple · 09/02/2019 20:20

Walking on Sunshine

SoSaidTheHorse · 09/02/2019 20:21

Also My Humps, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, Loveshack and that Bills song.

RedDogsBeg · 09/02/2019 20:21

Shudup a ya face (think that's how it is written)
Granddad or any other soppy sentimental slush sung by children
Birdy Song and variants thereof

MyAuntyBadger · 09/02/2019 20:22

The new Bryan Adams 'tune'; Shine a light. Has me instantly shouting at Alexa to stop. Also anything by The Lighthouse Family. Bland shit. Oh, Robbie Williams 'Made of Candy'.

ChiefClerkDrumknott · 09/02/2019 20:22

Angels by Robbie Williams. Can’t stand him and this dross is so very depressing

SoSaidTheHorse · 09/02/2019 20:23

I forgot Angels and I Don't Want to Miss A Thing.

I also really hate Amazing Grace.

3out · 09/02/2019 20:25

Umbrella

ManonBlackbeak · 09/02/2019 20:27

I came on to say 'Angels' by Robbie Williams!

Someone Like You by Adele is another one. Overplayed dirge.

Debruary · 09/02/2019 20:27

This one is far easier to answer than the best song thread.

Angels by Robbie Williams. Hated it on the very first hearing, back in the day. Was genuinely confused that everyone else seemed to love it.

Wonderwall by Oasis. As above.

Hotel California by the Eagles. Just despise the tune really.

Fireinthegrate · 09/02/2019 20:28

Hey Jude
Can’t bear it. It gives me an image of earnest 1970’s Uni students, with lank greasy hair, swaying gently in someone’s student digs. Ugh!

Disfordarkchocolate · 09/02/2019 20:29

Trevor Horn and Robbie Williams with Everybody Wants to Rule the World, what were they thinking!!! I run to the radio and switch it off as soon as this song starts.

FireCrotch · 09/02/2019 20:29

Crazy in Love for similar reasons to your Shania song Grin

Bubastes · 09/02/2019 20:30

Peter Sarstedt - Where Do You Go To My Lovely

Toploader - Dancing in the Moonlight

Scouting for Girls - She's So Lovely

And, YES

Robbie Williams - Angels

(Even writing the names of these songs out has made me so angry)

0urKid · 09/02/2019 20:31

The theme song from Orange is the New black. Fucking horrendous. I have to have the remote in my hand so I can skip the intro and mute it just in case.

lastqueenofscotland · 09/02/2019 20:33

Rude - Magic

Anything by pit bull
Anything by Mumford and pissing sons.

PRoseLegend · 09/02/2019 20:33

There's a lot of songs here that I actually like though.
@Ginghambox maybe you've just never heard good rap? Check out the band Hilltop Hoods, they have some really great songs, my favourites are "Higher", "Breathe", and "1955". Really meaningful lyrics, not your usual rap about chicks and drugs, ugh.

As for my least favourite song of all time, it's Shannon Noll (australian idol runner up) and Natalie Bassingthwaite's (Neighbours star) cover of "Don't Give Up". Just awful.

EastMidsGPs · 09/02/2019 20:33

Shout Out To My Ex ... well any Little Mix song really, their voices do not sound harmonious to me, just screechy. Also find their lyrics annoying.

There is another song that really grates my teeth, but will have to nip and Google it. I'll be back !

Crinkle77 · 09/02/2019 20:34

ginghambox I am so with you about Imagine. It's just so dreary. Also agree with Angels, in fact anything by Robbie Williams. Also can't stand anything by Oasis either.

Sparklingbrook · 09/02/2019 20:34

Loveshack
Bohemian Rhapsody
Come on Eileen
Cheerleader
Most Oasis songs
Africa

formerbabe · 09/02/2019 20:34

Girls just wanna have fun....actually I'm a miserable cow and would prefer to sit in the corner thanks.

Bubastes · 09/02/2019 20:34

Oasis really are shite. It's funny to think how absolutely massive they were at one point.

Progress2019 · 09/02/2019 20:34

Quite a few of these!

Also I HATE

Torn by Natalie Imbruglia - its such a load of shit
Wake up Boo (i think its called) by The Boo Radleys
And (controversially) Parklife by Blur

Loads more I’m sure
