I'm going to a hen party and we've all to give the name of a song we hate (I don't know why). I'm struggling. Any suggestions?

I would walk 500 miles by The Proclaimers. I'd walk a million miles if it meant I never had to have my ears assaulted by that song again!

That fucking 'Stitches' song. Hate his bleating, sheeplike voice.

Anything by Avril cunting Lavigne. Her entire face annoys me, but her voice is just horrible and she looks a right little madam.

'Don't Stop Fucking Believing'.

Shakira sounds like she's driving a tractor over a ploughed field with weights tied to her vocal cords.

Currently- 1 of the most intensely rubbish, bleating, iiritating, stupid, songs in both tune and lyrics-
"Let's Marvin Gaye and get it on ! - dont even know who by, a 1 hit wonder I'm hoping
arrrrgggggghhhh!! Can not turn radio off fast enough

BeautyGoesToBenidorm · 04/04/2016 16:16

Oh god yeah, the James Blunt one about three wise men with a semi by the sea - hate the song, but those lyrics crack me up! Grin

Going back a few years now but Honey by Bobby Golsboro. Hugely overblown sickly sentimental pile of steaming crap.

For example (soaring strings in the background)

'One day while i was not at home
And she was there all alone
The angels came.'
It doesn't even tell you what the fuck happened!

Horrible 70s crapola like the Pina Colada song, Bermuda Triangle and a ghastly duet called Lucky Stars in which the female artist initially wasn't even credited.
I am feeling much too old and very crabby.

Anything by Paul McCartney, with a special mention for Hey Jude.

Currently it's Rihanna's Work. I really fucking hate it. it sounds like she really can't be arsed

Mumberjack · 04/04/2016 16:49

Currently that Stitches song or 'let's Marvin Gaye and get it on'
For all time, living la vida loca by Ricky Martin or dance the night away by the Mavericks

AdrenalineFudge · 04/04/2016 16:52

Anything by any boyband ever. West Life, Take That, One Direction - the lot of them.

flirtygirl · 04/04/2016 16:52

Ive really have bad taste as like most of the songs mentioned but Kylies cant get you out of my head, makes me want to rip off my head.

AdrenalineFudge · 04/04/2016 16:52

Anything by Tom Jones too.

Throwingshadeagain · 04/04/2016 16:54

Oh god Living la Vida Loca is a unique kind of hell.

Paul McCartney really really needs to GO AWAY.

I love Rihanna's 'Work'!

Throwingshadeagain · 04/04/2016 16:55

Oh yes Tom Jones

AdrenalineFudge · 04/04/2016 16:55

gentlydownthestreamm I've just had a look at his Twitter, you're right. I like that he doesn't take himself too seriously.

summerroses · 04/04/2016 16:59

The wind beneath my wings.
Worst wedding song ever, esp. if accompanied by some guy on a guitar.
Earnest enough to warrant divorce.

wombattoo · 04/04/2016 17:30

I can't believe nobody has mentioned that pile of crap Tubthumping by chumbawumba or whatever they were called shite

LifeOfBriony · 04/04/2016 18:26

Thanks, VoteforPedr0.

More votes for Seasons in the Sun, Honey by Bobby Goldsborough, Shout by Lulu, Girls just wanna have fun, and Walking on Sunshine. I sing in a choir, couldn't believe it when we were given the music for that one. Thankfully we didn't have to actually perform it.

I'm sure there will be more.

OP, do let us know why you need to think of songs you hate (when you know, of course).

Twatting 'Mercy' by twatting Duffy. Nails on a blackboard. And it goes on for about a week
