Lighthearted songs that you hate

[Sparklypurpleunicornsaremyfav]

OK so my husband completely disagrees with me on this. I cry at pretty much everything, he doesn't.
He gets teary at this song... To me it's like nails down a blackboard... The song..
Imagine by John lennon
I can't explain it but I hate it with a passion, it makes cringe
Am I the only one like my husband says or do others get the same feeling....what other songs have that effect on people???

Mull of kintyre is the only Paul McCartney song I absolutely can’t listen to despite loving him and being one of my favourite musicians. It’s terrible

The Flood by Take That and The Shape of You by Ed Sheeran. Both are grammatically incorrect and give me the absolute rage when I hear them. It's a pity because i think the TT one would be a great song if it wasn't wrong. The corrected lyric scans just the same. Fuck you, Barlow.

Big fucking Yellow Taxi. I had a department store summer job as a teenager where the same 8 songs were played on a loop all day every day. BfYT is the one that I remember most clearly and I can't stand it.

Not a fan of Imagine either.

Breakfast at Tiffany’s

I'm a huge fan of George Michael but Careless Whisper gets right on my tits. I have no idea why.

I think I want to marry you by Bruno Mars.
It drives me mad that people play it at their weddings when it includes the lyrics: ‘we’re looking for something something dumb to do’ and ‘if we wake up and you want to break up that’s cool.’ Great choice 👍🏻 Start ranting every time I hear it, awful awful lyrics

Imagine anything by Queen so sick of hearing them in adverts,

Well I'm glad I'm not the only one with imagine.... Not sure what it is about it but I absolutely hate it!!!!
I love careless whisper!! 😂

True colours (cyndi Lauper?)
I hate that song with a passion. She sounds like she's murdering a cat.

Walking On Sunshine by Katrina and the Waves.

Absolutely detest it. One of my earliest memories was of being crammed in the backseat of my childminders car with about four other toddlers, this coming on and thinking that I really didn’t like it.

Brown Eyed Girl by Van Morrison.
Sweet Caroline by Neil Diamond .
I Had a Dream by ABBA

‘Happy’ by Pharell Williams, I have to switch it off when it comes on, I find it rage inducing.

Three Is a Magic Number. It's just been on so many adverts recently and it annoys me so much.

It doesn’t bother me now, but that “How Bizarre” song from the 90s used to drive me insane. I was about 9 when it came out and my dad was obsessed, he had the cassette single and would play it on a loop when we were driving anywhere. Looking back I’m sure he knew and did it to wind me up!

Anything by simple red specifically 'Fairground'

The Power of Love sung by Jennifer Rush just hate it and the stupid lyrics, however right now this minute it would have to be Always Look On The Bright Side Of Lfe by Monty Python

Life

Come On Eileen. For some reason, I detest songs with sections that start slowly and speed up.

Just thought of another one. Showing my age now but this was 1977 sung by Charlene called I've Never Been To Me and the lyrics are nonsensical much like the title.

Who let the dogs out. Christ it's shite.

Would I lie to you - eddie and someone. Just makes my teeth grate.

There are plenty more.

Anything by Mariah Carey.

Charlene called I've Never Been To Me and the lyrics are nonsensical much like the title.

The male version of this - and the lyrics altered accordingly - is beyond even the original in lurching from pathos to bathos.

I’ve been to China & Asia Minor
On any ship that would sail
I made some noise with some good old boys
We wrecked a southern jail

Dry your eyes by the streets.....arrgggh, hate it with a passion!

I too loathe Imagine!

And that Bill Withers “Lovely Day” song. So repetitive and annoying..

Oh, and the Bruno Mars one about him lying on the sofa scratching his bits
