Songs you Hate

[Ilovechocolatebuttons]

On the themes currently running through Mumsnet at the moment, I have a total hatred of 2 songs, not just dislike/turn off the radion but actual cringe when I hear them played at parties and will walk off the dance floor....I dislike them so much!

My most HATED is Robin S - Show me Love - it gives me the chills!

Closely followed by 'You Got The Love'
Candi Staton/Florence/whomever else thinks it's a good idea to cover this drivel!

Tell me yours! (Secretly hopes someone also hates this rubbish)!

My most absolute worst is Sonique - Feels So Good

I have to turn the radio off as soon as I hear the opening bars. I hate it with an absolute passion. I think it dates back to hearing it eleven billion times when I was waitress during the summer of 2000.

I also dislike a few others mentioned, Dancing in the Moonlight by Toploader is awful, as is anything by Simply Red. Oh and All Night Long by Lionel Richie (shudder)

Survivor by Destiny's Child.

Music by Madonna. Candy by Robbie Williams.

Both songs make me genuinely angry. Proper slapped arse face.

Any breathy, whispery white girl covers of other songs. Ellie Goulding, Lily Allen, that fucking TUI advert, I'm looking at you.

Not sure if it was popular in the UK as well: Be my Lover by La Bouche. Very popular when my class went on a 10 trip to Italy and one of the girls played it to death.
Over 20 years later I still cringe every time I hear it.

@ankasi I have a massive soft spot for cheesy 90's Eurodance so I'll need to disagree with you on that one!

just dont fear the reaper gives me the chills

I'm in work and haven't read through the entire thread, so apologies if this has been previously mentioned. But for me the ultimate, makes me full of rage, song has to be 'Wives and Lovers' by Jack Jones - it's an oldie in case anyone's wondering, but I give you the smug lyrics below.....

Hey! Little Girl
Comb your hair, fix your makeup
Soon he will open the door
Don't think because there's a ring on your finger
You neednt try anymore

For wives should always be lovers too
Run to his arms the moment he comes home to you
I'm warning you...

Day after day
There are girls at the office
And men will always be men
Don't send him off with your hair still in curlers
You may not see him again

For wives should always be lovers too
Run to his arms the moment he comes home to you
He's almost here...

Hey! Little girl
Better wear something pretty
Something you'd wear to go to the city and
Dim all the lights, pour the wine, start the music
Time to get ready for love
Time to get ready
Time to get ready for love

Hoopdeloop I will second Imagine/John Lennon and I will always love you/Witney. I will add A bridge over troubled water, any version and absolutely anything by ABBA

The only way is up! by Yazz. Really makes me want to commit GBH.

Walking on Sunshine - fills me with stabby rage.

Brass In Pocket - if I could commit murder, I would.

When you say nothing at all - Ronan Keating

What's Up - 4 Non Blondes

Just thought of another few:

Secret lovers - Atlantic Star
Lucky Stars - Dean Friedman

And the godawful Pina Colada Song - "if you like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain...." NO, I DON'T.....!!!!!!!

Bruno Mars ‘locked out of heaven’ - I cannot abide songs blatantly about vag.

"Don't act like you know me" I mean come on get out of your own arse, who do you think you are?
the song really irritates me

Aerosmith- I don't want to miss a thing. I have to turn it off when it comes on the radio.

The Final Countdown- I have no idea why, but when I hear it I get an instant feelings of dread. It's really hard to explain but it puts me in a very dark place.

Happy by Pharrell Williams.

A 'room without a roof'?? Don't you mean 'room without a ceiling'?!!! Arggggh.

Anything by James Arthur.

I can't stand the way he sings/speaks like he can't be bothered to open his mouth properly; it's all such an effort. And I don't like 'him' from X factor although there's no specific reason. He's just annoys me!

@U2HasTheEdge I second that. Bloody Aerosmith! I hate that song! Especially the bit where he screams, what is that??! Because of that song I also refuse to watch Armageddon!

‘Too Good at Goodbyes’ by Sam Smith.

That slidey, whiney voice infuriates me.

Anything by Paulo Nutini.

His croaky voice makes me want to harm something. Preferably him.

The last three pube-free squeakers I saw performing their 'current hit' on Blue Peter or other CBBC shows. Totally interchangeable white boys with jafaking accents, songs with no structure and no discernible tune and only three lines of lyrics... I think it was High School Musical thatset the trend for music as nothing more than branded product, with no merit of its own and songs you can't tell apart or remember five minutes after you heard them...

I agree with hoopdeloop above, that Whitney Houston song sounds like a method of torture to me. AND IIIII....Will Always, .... Just shut up Whitney.

My other major dislikes are most of the awful warbling cover versions on the Xfactor, why do they warble so much, just sing the song like Karen Carpenter.

Anything by the Manic Street Preachers (apart from the Holy Bible which was an ok album)

It's beige samey music. Like Coldplay but at least Coldplay are honest about what they are the MSPs think they're some sort of edgy indie gods

(You're) Having my baby. Absolutely loathe that song.

anything by Robbie Williams

Anything by the Beatles

Most 80s music
