I nominate Bjork's "It's oh so quiet"
In between the yappy dog impressions and the big band music you get her spitting all over you.
Why would anyone listen to that for pleasure?

YABU - that's a great song.

Most annoying song ever is a toss up between
Fairground Attraction/Perfect
Bluebells/Young At Heart
Dexys Midnight Runners/Come on Aileen

I don't think I could actually be friends with someone who liked those songs.

Sympathy for the devil by the stones it does my head in with the woo hoo in the background all the way through it

Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny.. one of DS's toys plays it. I think it's going to go missing..

Primrose123 · 30/08/2013 15:04

I will nominate "I just called to say I love you" and "I will always love you".

I have to turn the radio off if either song is played.

Freshlysqueezed · 30/08/2013 15:06

Loveshack and Birdhouse in my soul - both of them really really bug me!

MissOtisRegretsMadam · 30/08/2013 15:06

Top loader "dancing in the moonlight"

Robbie Williams "rock dj"

Sisqo "thong song"

Kylie "spinning around"

Binkyridesagain · 30/08/2013 15:06

The Firm - Star Trekkin, because my DS keeps singing it atm

Freshlysqueezed · 30/08/2013 15:07

Oh yes and agree on Fairground Attraction, Perfect - just wrong!

MissOtisRegretsMadam · 30/08/2013 15:07

Annie Lennox "no more I love you's"

There that's definitely it

2madboys · 30/08/2013 15:08

The new Pet Shop Boys single - who is buying this rubbish? Confused

MrsTerryPratchett · 30/08/2013 15:10

Tiger Feet. Years of dating a wedding DJ

Scarletohello · 30/08/2013 15:12

Funky Town by Lipps Inc. hated it as a teenager and still can't bear it now!

WhoKnowsWhereTheTimeGoes · 30/08/2013 15:13

The House of The Rising Sun by the Animals, what a dirge.
Hold Me Now - The Thompson Twins - ditto

As well as most of those already mentioned.

MrsDavidBowie · 30/08/2013 15:13

Anything by Scouting for Girls

If anyone suggests a Mr Bowie record , I will come round and rip your head off Grin

SPBisResisting · 30/08/2013 15:13

Some of my favourite songs on this thread!

ElleBelly · 30/08/2013 15:13

Yes to Loveshack, or anything by Simply Fucking Red

WhoKnowsWhereTheTimeGoes · 30/08/2013 15:13

I like Funky Town though. And Tiger Feet was the first single I ever bought

SPBisResisting · 30/08/2013 15:14

Oh, I love those songs Freshlysqueezed. Blush

Llanbobl · 30/08/2013 15:15

1D "best song ever" .......errrrrr, 'fraid not boys, it's like all your stuff naff and irritating

SmiteYouWithThunderbolts · 30/08/2013 15:16

What was that Willow Smith song? Something about flicking hair back and forth...?

DaleyBump · 30/08/2013 15:18

Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep by Middle of the Road. Makes me so, so stabby.

Inertia · 30/08/2013 15:19

Hotel California

Most of Florence and the machine's output, but especially Rabbit Heart (This is a GIFT!!It COMES at a PRICE!!!). Can't bear all the caterwauling- gives me earache.

Bulletproof - too sharp, hurts my ears as well. And that Ellie Goulding one about we're under the sheets and you're killing me- have managed to avoid her since then.

Fairground by Simply Red

Rocks by Primal Scream

That Calvin Harris one about how he likes white girls, fat girls, thin girls, girls who are willing to let sexism wash wash over them

Most chart music passes me by nowadays but I'm sure it'd annoy me.

Inertia · 30/08/2013 15:19

I do have the original version of No More I love yous which I much prefer.
