What popular songs can you not stand.

For me it is Disturbed's version of Sound of Silence.

I love S and G version, even though I'm a metal head. I love Disturbed even though Dave Draiman can be a bit of a tool and ha e seen them live about 8 times but this cover is just over produced and overplayed. I think it got them a temporary new following of middle aged women! (No shade at middle aged women, I am one myself, well middle aged plus).but the people I saw at the gigs after this song was realeased weren't Disturbed fans!

I find it hard to believe people don’t like anything by The Beatles - maybe you’re just sick of the same songs they play over and over on the radio. I loathe Fairground by Simply Red and Perfect 10 by Beautiful South

Anything by Guns 'n Roses. The music is great but Axl Rose's singing is unbearable.
Oasis. Liam's voice is really whingy to my ear and the lyrics are a thrown together mixture of random words with no actual real meaning.

Mull of Kintyre, Wings just noooooo!
Really can’t stand it.

And anything by Beyonce.

Oh yes! And the bagpipes make it even worse.

People think you must be mad not to like the Beatles. They're shit and so are led Zeppelin

Amy Winehouse’s version of Valerie
Tina Turner- Proud Mary

More recently Anxiety - love Doechii’s album but this is awful TikTok nonsense

Anything by Adele. Anything by Abba. Almost everything by Ed Sheeran.

Bet you'd all be singing 80% of these hackneyed choons if you were pissed though ! Me too. That's partly why I hate them so much...

Any Xmas pop song after working in a Lloyd’s Chemist as a teen one December and it had one Xmas tape on a loop.

Sweet Caroline because I am one.

Loving You by Minnie Ripperton because of that awful awful awful high note. Although when I think of it I hear my late brother singing it badly and it makes me laugh when I think of him.

I’m so glad you’ve said this. I listened to this because a lot of people talked very sincerely about it on here and I actually laughed out loud when I heard it, it’s so awful. It sounds like a parody.

I can’t bear the Amy Winehouse version of Valerie.

Pretty much anything by George Michael, don’t know why just really dislike his music

Anything by pink.
Band aid do they know its christmas - feed the world.
And elvis.
All country music.
And many many more.

I always think The White Stripes version of Jolene sounds like John Lennon in his strange, just post Beatle era!

Sister Sledge, We Are Famileee

Dull of Kintyre more like ... such a dirge, how did it stay at no. 1 for so long??

Yeah so shit they’re currently making 4 films about them and they’re universally accepted as being the most influential band ever.

Just goes to show people will listen to all manner of shit😂

I couldn't name a Taylor Swift song at gunpoint, but couldn't agree more about the Beatles (I'm more for the Stones and especially the Doors, which some people find too dark), Wings, and 'Mr Brightside'.

For me it's practically every song that has its own stupid little dance. 'Come on Eileen' has been mentioned up thread, but in fairness that isn't a dance, it's just mad jumping up and down on the spot.

Also 'oops upside your head': that isn't a dance either just people sitting in a chain and smacking the floor on either side of them. Eh?

See also: Macarena, Saturday Night, Gimme some of your sweet love, YMCA, The Twist.

Get in the bin, the lot of you!

Torn by Natalie Imbruglia. It was played and played and played when it came out until I became sick of it.
Anything by Boney M.
Anything by Anastasia.

It's Raining Men
I Will Survive.

Eurgh.

Dreams by Gabrielle, and Sleeping Satellite by Tasmin Archer. No idea why anyone would like them.

This.

It’s abysmal isn’t it. The opening bars set my teeth on edge
