@SirChenjins I'll PM you so it's not on here in case anyone else doesn't want to know.

Oh 😥

Top loader - dancing in the moonlight. I believe it’s a cover but regardless it’s incredibly annoying.

Snow patrol - chasing cars. Don’t know many others if this group (and interestingly I think the song “Run” , which is superficially of a similar style, is a good song even if not typically my cup of tea)

But I fucking detest “Chasing Cars”. Shite lyrics (what I can make out) and the blandest, plainest, most fucking repetitive, half arsed saccharine tune imaginable. Fucking awful.

Landfill indie

Oh yes, I hate a few of her songs eg "Never Gonna Not Dance Again". Why not just say "I'm gonna dance again" 🤣

I also hate Rude Boy, Only Girl in the World, Work, What's My Name by Rihanna & any collaboration she did with Eminem

Just for you @Thebinisrightthere

Anything by Michael Buble

Abyzou · 20/06/2026 02:00

Anything by the Beatles or Abba. Gives me an absolute, murderous rage. Especially the fucking Beatles.

Claire by Gilbert O’Sullivan.

its husband’s ‘best friend’ and ‘work wife’s’ name and I fucking hate it, there was a time, before I told him to stfu, that it was his favourite word judging by the amount of times he used it 😡.

@ABrokenFrame and you're still married to him?? 🤡

If it were me, I'd be "either get rid of her and stop all contact, or I will be divorcing you". Get a backbone.

Roselilly36 · 20/06/2026 03:29

Fairy tale New York, can’t stand it.

Anything by Lewis Capaldi ...he sings such miserable songs

Tryingagainfor2026 · 20/06/2026 03:55
  • Angels by Robbie Williams - all that is bad about pop music.
  • that travis song ..
’why does it always rain on me…’ - so depressing. I don’t mind sad songs at all but this is just miserable, not sad.’
  • top loader - dancing in the moonlight
  • walking on sunshine

You’re Gorgeous by Babybird
That pulled my legs apart bit makes me feel ill.

JeanMarie · 20/06/2026 05:12

Imagine....John Lennon
Mull of Kintyre....Paul McCartney
Sailing....Rod,Stewart

I love music and can listen to any song/singer even if I don't particularly like it but these three wailing laments make me squirm.

WilliamsandWatsonTooLateNSoul · 20/06/2026 05:43

Love me love my dog
Down at the city zoo
Honey..bobby goldsboro
70s pop shite at its very worst

Oh god, that was everywhere for ages. Didn't people break into jukeboxes to remove it?
Listener fatigue 😄

I'm glad I'm slightly too young to remember that!

HelpMeGetThrough · 20/06/2026 07:34

All music, it’s just noise to me now.

That's sad.

RampantIvy · 20/06/2026 07:36

That's sad.

Why? It doesn’t upset me at all.

DierdreDaphne · 19/06/2026 23:06

It's cropping up on here for the very good reason that it's awful, terrible and also dreadful.... it's somewhat rapey I think, but even if it wasn't - just no..

God yes! Forgot to add Come on Eileen to my list! That is one of my all time most loathed songs!

The rapeyness, the singer’s adenoids, the faux traveller vibes. Can’t stand it,

Ditto anything by the Thompson twins.

NooNakedJacuzziness · 20/06/2026 08:05

Ha, I love Come on Eileen - I think it’s absolutely joyous “poor old Johnny Raaaaayyieeee” 😍

Kirawaswaiting107 · 20/06/2026 08:13

Anything sung by Neil Tennant in his nasal whiney voice, urgh

Dancing in the Moonlight by Toploader makes me feel murderous

Same! I have to turn it off or leave the room!
