To ask which songs give you the rage?

[Chocolattay]

Heart Of Glass makes me want to be violent, I cannot stand it. I’m not sure what it is. But something about the lyrics, voice and tune trigger something inside me. It came on the radio in the delivery room whilst I was in active labour and it made me distressed until it was turned off.

Also, Ed Sheeran’s songs. Mainly due to the weird lyrics. “My bedsheets smell like you.” Wtf? And in a recent one “I want to drink your smile.” How does one ‘drink a smile’? On the rocks? Also the song where he goes on about all of the depressing hardships his (I’m guessing made-up for the song) friends have fallen upon. One doesn’t see his kids, one is divorced, bla bla bla. It annoys me because it’s not his place to go on about their (made-up, in all fairness) problems for a good song. If the friends are real I hope he asked for permission. This is the same song where he goes on about driving 90mph down country lanes. And the less said about Galway Girl the better.

George Harrison-My Sweet Lord
The most boring repetitive song ever.

Potentially unpopular choices also
Band Aid - Do They Know It’s Christmas
I hear the opening chimes and turn off the radio

Elton John - Candle In The Wind (the Diana remix)
That along with the Puff Daddy/Faith Evans Every Breath You Take being constantly played did my head in, hate both with a passion.

Stay -east 17 😡 really cannot stand it.

@groovergirl
I Just Called to Say I Love You -- Stevie in the nadir of his otherwise brilliant career

100% this ^

The entire ouevre of The Beautiful South but in particular Perfect 10.

“We’ve lost dancing”

What a load of absolute bollocks. 😡

Can’t remember the actual title - is it Summer The First Time? God awful dirge about young man’s first sexual experience with older woman? Anyone know the one I mean?

I can’t be dealing with “Come on Eileen” by Dexy’s Midnight Runners…. Sounds very much like some teenage fuck boy coercing a girl into sex before she’s ready.
The Police “Don’t Stand So Close to Me” - Male teacher playing victim to hypersexual teen girl student. (Yeuch) Also “Every Breath You Take” - fuck off stalker!
“Turning Japanese” by the Vapors. (Subtle as a sledgehammer racism here)… And while we’re at it, Spotify was on random play and brought out these lyrics by Guns n Roses from the song “One in a Million”. Honestly has been enough to make me cancel them from my entire life. “Immigrants and f*ts, they make no sense to me / They come to our country and think they’ll do as they please" Just not my sweet child at all.
“Money for Nothing” by Dire Straits… A) The entire verse repeatedly referring to “That little f*t”, and b) it was playing at a party as I lost consciousness when I was 14, where someone spiked my fucking lemonade. (You can guess the rest.)

@Kittykat93

I love Green Day, and Linkin Park, good job we're all different eh 😁

Me too and many other so called shouty bands.

Yellow--Coldplay.
Imagine. Imagine you're woker than thou.
We are the World. Not only do I hate preachy shit where a whole bunch of stars get to feel good about themselves, but every time they repeat the line "It's true we'll make a better day, just you and me," I find myself muttering, "It's you and I, morons. You and I."

You're right. Summer (The First Time) by Bobby Goldsboro. "She was 31, I was 17; I knew nothing of love, she knew everything ..."

But he saw the sun rise as a man.

This song my dd keeps playing. It's been stuck in my head for a month!

Very “Here’s to You, Mrs Robinson….”

Someone mentioned Wake Up Boo - no I will not wake up and no it is not a beautiful morning, fuck off.

I listen to Heart sometimes in the car and switch over when Sonique and that bloody Superstar song by Jamelia, WHO has ever requested these? NO ONE.

Adele needs to retire

Neil Young is another singer i just cant listen yo.
Harvest Moon especially is awful.It really rubs me up the wrong way.

I hate Ruby by Kaiser Chiefs. The chorus is utter pants. Also Your Song (lyrics are beyond crap), Two Princes and Breakfast at Tiffany's

I love Your Woman by White Town though! Also Every Breat You Take is supposed to be a creepy stalker song. It's certainly not meant to be a love song!

And Song For Whoever (I love you from the bottom of my pencil case) is meant to be completely tongue in cheek, as are most of their songs

“Feels” by Katy Perry, Pharrell and Calvin Harris. I hate it so much it’s actually painful to listen to. The melody, the vocals, the style…. just hideous.

@Chocolattay

Don’t They Know It’s Christmas is just fucking insulting.

How dare them kids in Africa be starving…it’s Christmas. This year they will release the 2022 version…”tell them suffering kids in Ukraine to get a grip because it’s Christmas”

Think you've managed to completely miss the point on this one. I know it's the done thing to be sneery about it now but that's really really not what they were saying

Lots of songs I dislike for various reasons, but in terms of extreme hatred, songs that actually put me in a bad mood, The power of love by Jennifer Rush, Move Closer by Phyllis Nelson, The first time ever I saw your face by Roberta Flack and anything by The Pretenders because Christie Hynd’s voice is like nails on a blackboard to me.

@Funkyslippers I was asked to sing “Every Breath You Take” at a wedding once. (A) Ew… B) Can you imagine that in a cathedral accompanied by a pipe organ? I politely declined.

2002 by Anne Marie
“Dancing on the hood in the middle of the woods of a old mustang” - why Is there an old car in the woods
Also I hate nostalgia by the numbers , I was young once now I’m not type songs
That other one she has about not wanting to put make up on her cheeks and how she loves “every single part” of her body , body positivity is great and all but it’s a bit too cringe

@SalsaLove

If I Could Turn Back Time by Cher.

Seconded.

And Simply The Best by Tina Turner. Both out at same time in late 80s and overplayed on radio to the point that I never want to ever hear them again. Awful songs.

In the same vein my husband hates Black Box's Right On Time.

Plus getting the song title wrong as well !!

@TheVanguardSix

Toploader's Dancing in the Moonlight. The rage just boils over... I could kick small dogs like rugby balls whenever I hear that song (which is never, so... all small dogs are safe).

😂

Aargh simply the best cannot abide it !
