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

Oh God yes. Dancing in the moonlight. The opening notes make me bristle with fear.

Hey Ya by OutKast

Closer than Close Rosie Gaines.

Hey Ya by OutKast

WOAH! HOLD ON A MINUTE THERE!

ManonBlackbeak · 09/02/2019 20:39

Basically any song that gets played to death by Heart would be eligible lol.

Cocolepew · 09/02/2019 20:39

Pretty much everything Beyonce does.
I can't remember the name, but she did one with Jay Z and waffles on about watermelons in it .
It makes me murderous.

VanillaSauce · 09/02/2019 20:39

Dancing Queen and every other song by Abba

ginghambox · 09/02/2019 20:41

Hey Ya by OutKast
Steady on.

Bubastes · 09/02/2019 20:42

Oh I'm fond of a big haired Heart power ballad when partaking in a sherry.

JewRassicNark · 09/02/2019 20:42

Around the world Lisa Stansfield
Believe Cher
Dreams Gabrielle
Anything Madonna released after the 90s.

NameyMcNameChange1 · 09/02/2019 20:44

Heart seems to have about 50 songs that it plays. It will chuck in something in the charts about every third song but for some reason they always remove the rap interlude (if there is one obvs). Any of the other 50 songs are on my list. I work in a place where Heart is played continuously. It’s genuine torture. Apart from the Devon and Cornwall breakfast show which is surprisingly funny.

Big Shaq .... just fucking why?? Its seriously shit and gives me the rage !!!!!!

Progress2019 · 09/02/2019 20:45

Yes yes to Around The World. Actually pretty much everything Lisa Stansfield ever did

Debruary · 09/02/2019 20:46

Unfaithful by Rihanna is also a really unpleasant sound.

SoSaidTheHorse · 09/02/2019 20:46

That bloody Milkshake song!

Justheretogiveaviewfrommyworld · 09/02/2019 20:47

Blurred lines
Anything by X factor band

Bubastes · 09/02/2019 20:48

Oh I thought you meant Heart, that band from the 80s who were half women, half hairspray! Grin

ManonBlackbeak · 09/02/2019 20:48

Oh yes, Heart, Capital and Smooth are spectacularly awful. All owned by the same people unsurprisingly. It's a shame because Smooth was a really good station at one time.

fusioluxe · 09/02/2019 20:48

Anything by Kylie Minogue or Abba.

Right. Let me explain. I loved it when it was released. But I worked in a shop where it played on the hour every hour. Then in a bar where every fucking Thursday and Sunday (karaoke) night it was absolutely slaughtered by this punter who did the Polaroid shake and everything. That reminds me. He ruined Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me by always going LADIES AND GENTLEMEN MISTER ELTON JOOOHHHNNN!!!!

Move closer by Phylis nelson.

I hate it sooooo much it's irrational.

And anything from sade.

Jsmith99 · 09/02/2019 20:51

My heart will go on by Céline Dion. Awful caterwauling dirge of a song.

I will always love you by Whitney Houston. As Céline, but even worse.

I just called to say I love you by Stevie Wonder. Stevie is a bone-fide musical genius whose 70s albums are timeless masterpieces. It is a small tragedy that this ghastly twee abomination of a song is the work for which he is best known in the U.K.

Galway girl by Ed Sheran. Just embarrassingly crap. God knows who let him release it.

All Christmas songs, with the sole exception of Fairytale of New York.

Cocolepew · 09/02/2019 21:01

Ohh that "Did you see lisa, yes I saw Lisa" montrosity from the 70's. I can't remember the name of it either. Dean Freedman sang it.

Qcng · 09/02/2019 21:03

That Christmas "song" by Slade
(Sick just thinking about it)
