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

@BubblegumFactory

If you mean Jennifer Hudson yes, I've heard her sing it but I also hate the lyrics Blush

Keeoe · 09/02/2019 23:08

Oh no @Ribbonsonabox - Mr Brightside? I'm afraid you may be wrong there! It's the chanting, fist-pumping, jumping-around song we all need to be closer to each other Grin

Any song that is an earworm, eg Bird is the Word.

Stardustinmyeyes · 09/02/2019 23:15

Grease is a word, it's got truth it's got feeling.
No it fucking hasn't. You were right the first time
It's a word

Puzzledandpissedoff · 09/02/2019 23:20

Agadoo - Black Lace
The Birdie Song - The Tweets
Band of Gold - Freda Payne
My Cherie Amour - Stevie Wonder
Everything Maria Carey's ever sung

WhatthehellisplanB · 09/02/2019 23:23

That chumbawumba song is drivel.
Hate that Fleur East hit, something about jazz? Shite.
Anything by little mix. Bollocks.
Firework by Katy Perry. Badly sung.
Any thing by Robbie. Pish.

CurbsideProphet · 09/02/2019 23:24

All Cliff Richard and Robbie Williams.

I'm tempted to email the link for this thread to the DJ for our wedding with the subject title "songs not to be played" Grin

ThisIsNotARealAvo · 09/02/2019 23:25

Dancing in the moonlight

Bring it back, sing it back or whatever it's called

WoahBodyforrrm · 09/02/2019 23:26

Anything by Jessie J basically.

Excitedforxmas · 09/02/2019 23:27

Total eclipse of the heart- makes my teeth itch

BubblegumFactory · 09/02/2019 23:27

Barton, no not Jennifer Hudson, Jennifer Holliday. 1982. Jennifer Hudson probably not even born!

BartonHollow · 09/02/2019 23:28

Oh ok I didn't think it existed until the Dreamgirls film! I'll check it out !

TildaTurnip · 09/02/2019 23:28

Any ABBA
YMCA
Adele-Set Fire to the Rain

Many already mentioned!

BubblegumFactory · 09/02/2019 23:28

Shocked to the core that Prince has a mention on this thread. No, no having that.

Bubastes · 09/02/2019 23:29

Me either, Bubblegum!

bibbitybobbityyhat · 09/02/2019 23:30

The entire oeuvre of The Beautiful South but in particular Perfect 10.

At the moment the song that has me leaping up to turn the radio of is that one by George Ezra that goes home grown alligator ...

Jins · 09/02/2019 23:30

Bohemian rhapsody.

PutYourShirtOnMartin · 09/02/2019 23:31

Any song created after 1987...

Bubastes · 09/02/2019 23:33

The entire oeuvre of The Beautiful South but in particular Perfect 10.

Yes! And funnily enough I was having a conversation with a colleague about this the other day. I quite like the Housemartins but the Beautiful South bring me out in hives. There was one point in the 90s where it felt like they released a single every bloody month. They were SO overplayed.

bibbitybobbityyhat · 09/02/2019 23:35

I love some of the toons on here Grin

ilovesooty · 09/02/2019 23:36

The Greatest Love of All is awful. Drunk karaoke fodder.

Fabvegetablegrower · 09/02/2019 23:37

I really dislike Kings of Leon Sex on Fire Confused

TildaTurnip · 09/02/2019 23:39

Anything by Kings of Leon!

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 09/02/2019 23:40

Dancing Queen- ABBA
Walking on Sunshine-Katrina and the Waves
99 Red Balloons-Nena
Nothing Compares 2U - Sinaed O'Connor

Oh that stupid Xmas song that EVERYONE seems to love and thinks they’re so unique and original because they and only they like it - fairytale of New York hey! I was in labour to that sing in 1999, my PFB had the Best music welcoming him into the world (and his mother's slurring gas'n'air warbling, Shane would've been proud I tell you)
