Songs you Hate

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)!

Man I Feel like a Woman by Shania Twain. I've worked in some posh places, rough places, done weddings, anniversaries, birthdays and the occasional Irish funeral when that song comes on one thing never changes. Nearly every 50+ year old woman runs to the dancefloor to recreate the video. Some poor bloke desperately fights to retain ownership of his shirt as Auntie Pat who has already hiked up her hemline in preparation (and been mainlining Smirnoff and diet coke) decides she needs it for the men shirts short skirts bit. Fucking carnage.

Careless whisper makes me want to curl up into a ball. Despite being a huge fan of George Michael!

Unbreak my heart - Toni Braxton. Urgh.

Ellie Goulding. Adele.

I find Adele insufferable but “Hello” is just horrendous.
She’s the female Ed Sheeran in that she writes songs that will sell rather than songs from the heart thatxshe purports to do.
Speakinxof Ed Sheeran, Galway Girl has to be the biggest cringe ever.
Sheeran comes across as a bit of a star-fucking precious little twat as well.
Needs to accept he’s never going to sleep with taylor swift

SharonBottsPoundOfGrapes · 20/02/2018 00:33

Galway Girl is a dirge.

EastMidsMummy · 20/02/2018 00:34

Breakfast at Tiffany's.

HuskyMcClusky · 20/02/2018 00:34

Oh, fucking Galway Girl makes me want to scream!

They’re currently giving away Ed Sheeran tickets on our local radio station. My first thought was ‘gutted if I won that!’

ScoopskiPotato · 20/02/2018 00:53

I always thought "My lovers got no money, he's got his strong release." My brother thought it was ...he's got a strombelize". Grin

ScoopskiPotato · 20/02/2018 00:56

Oh and love the Shania Twain thingy. I fear we may know the same people. Do your lot (the women) strut around with knees apart when Simply The Best by Tina Turner comes on? Grin

FluffyPineapple · 20/02/2018 01:08

Anything by Adele or Neil Diamond. I hate, hate, hate both their voices

I don't like country music either. 'Stand by your man' by Tammy Wynette really sets my teeth on edge

dustarr73 · 20/02/2018 10:37

Extreme,More Than Words.Is just pure shite.I hate it wiht a passion.

FluffyBunyip · 20/02/2018 11:24

Anything by Morrissey. That's not music, it's toddler song. That tuneless, droning stream of consciousness that they do when playing alone. As in:
"I drew a picture of a doggie. It's yellow and has ears. I like doggies. I can see my mummy in the kitchen. I dropped my slippers..." and so on 'till your head explodes.

UgandanKnuckles · 20/02/2018 14:51

^ I was just talking to someone about how much I fucking hate Morrissey so high 5

Steaksauce · 20/02/2018 17:41

That song that constantly goes "what's that coming over the hill is it a monster?"
Aside from the fact that the original song was annoying and had this irritating high pitched screechy person saying nonsensical words in the background, some company called Van Monster has started using it as their jingle on the radio so it's on alllllll the time. FUCK OFF!

RaspberryRipple63 · 20/02/2018 18:38

The only way is up by Yazz. Or is it Jazz? Whatever,I hate it. It seemed to be number one for ever and whenever it came on the radio,everyone started joining in. Angry

RaspberryRipple63 · 20/02/2018 18:56

There's a song that keeps being played in my local Costa's,I think it's by Jack Johnson,and I think it's called Banana Pancakes. As if that wasn't already enough to make me hate the song,halfway through it sounds like he's going to break into 'Postman Pat,Postman Pat,Postman Pat and his black and white cat.......'

Love all the freed from desire mistakes

My lover's got no money, he's got his trampoline... Grin

Steaksauce · 20/02/2018 19:22

So what ARE the right words to that freed from desire song?

All the mistakes on this thread so far and I've sung all of them at some point but I still don't know what the right lyrics are.

My lover's got no money, he's got his strong beliefs
