Peggy march...if you loved me
Bloody woeful record should have no place in the nsoul scene along with the snake waste of vinyl.

Actually I've blocked out one of the worst ones

Talking Heads - Once in a lifetime.

Once I hear the I have to turn it off or get away before David Byrne starts talking as his voice is awful.

You have definitely got the wrong meaning. There’s a video somewhere talking about the song, with some footage of them making it. I think it was one of Bruno’s band that was desperately in love with a woman and planning/doing lots of nice things for her and she was putting no effort in.

They were all ripping the piss out of him saying he needs to give up on the relationship and saying stupid things like would jump in front of a train for her, would you get eaten by a shark for her etc and that’s how the song came to be.

Apparently it turned out that the woman was cheating on him, which he didn’t know at the time they wrote the song. I’m the first to call misogyny out but I think in this case it was the woman that was the problem.

If you're so invested in a song you have to watch a video about why the lyrics don't mean what they sound like, good for you. I am not. I don't want to hear it, it's annoying and I turn over because I hear a man asking why a woman won't do crazy things for him. Those are the lyrics.

Rooooxannnnee... not even a song, just some horrendous scraping noise. Anything by Sting, really - he is one shit singer.

Come on Eileen - just hate everything about it

Any 50s/60s misogynist nonsense really. In the Summertime "if her daddy's rich take her out for a meal, if her daddy's poor then just do what you feel...have a drink, have a drive, go out and see what you can find" lovely!

Beatles "I'd rather see you dead little girl that to catch you with another man ... run as fast as you can little girl, hide your head in your hands little girl, cause if I catch you with another man that's the end little girl" charming!

Young Girl "with all the charms of a woman...you better run girl, you're much too young girl" sweet!

It's Cold Outside "I really should go...but it's cold outside" oh fuck it, go on then!

And I heard one that combined creepy, rapey lyrics recently with seriously annoying vocals and an irritating jaunty tempo called Come Outside which sounded like Max Bygraves trying to coerce Barbara Windsor into a quick knee trembler in the back alley. A happy ending, after 2-3 minutes of pestering she gave in with a "oh alright then" and everyone lived happily ever after.

Mmm mmm mmm mmm by Crash Test Dummies. I loathe it.

Coastalcreeksider · 02/05/2024 12:54

Any song by George Ezra. Radio gets muted immediately I hear the intro.

Hate them all.

lovemycbf · 02/05/2024 12:58

Paperback writer by the beetles is the most annoying ear worm of a song I've ever heard 😫

EmmaM84 · 06/05/2024 18:28

Birdhouse in your soul is an immediate off when it comes on radio. This ain't texas has followed suit

Mugaloaf · 06/05/2024 18:31

Toploader, Dancing in the Moonlight

Stay with me by Sam Smith. HIs voice irritates me and he's creepy as fuck.

Thirstysue · 06/05/2024 18:36

LittleBoPeepHasLostHerShit · 02/05/2024 06:48

Happy by Pharell. Banal piece of shit.

My daughter was born to that (on radio in the background) and I also fucking hate it

Rude Boy - Rhianna

RabbitsRock · 06/05/2024 18:39

I think it’s called “ It Wasn’t Me” - just awful lyrics about being caught cheating with a neighbour on the bathroom floor but still denying it. Used to turn it off anyway when DD was little as it wasn’t suitable but just can’t bear it!

KittyCollar · 06/05/2024 18:41

Dancing in The Moonlight
Hey Ya
Dancing On the Ceiling

I think I can hear lyrics and interpret them the way I hear them. He is happy to do a lot of violent aggressive and damaging things and is berating her for not doing the same for him.

I'm sure you see a tortured soul. Whatever. For me it is an instant "turn it off"
Actually remembered the kids and I call it the "Why won't you kill yourself for me?" song.

Edited

He’s expressing how much he loves her whilst acknowledging she doesn’t feel the same

Argh I can’t stand his voice! Instant mute.

Any mumble rapper/singer. And I actually love rap and hip hop (especially old school 90’s)

Travis' 'why does it always rain on me?' makes me murderous.

The lines 'Even when the sun is shining, I can't avoid the lightning' have to go down in history as some of the most lame, insipid lyrics ever written.

I'm with the PP above who can't stand Toploader's 'Dancing in the Moonlight' either.

Diana Ross's 'Chain Reaction' is another that sets my teeth on edge. So often played at those terrible wedding evening discos that it instantly transports me back there. Likewise the Bee Gees, 'you win again'. Just ... no.

With 'Come on Eileen', what was with that crazy dance where you did nothing more than jump up and down on the spot? Inquiring minds want to know.

Come to think of it, pretty much all songs that had their own special dance were the stuff of hell. With or without the dance. Gimme some of your sweet love, oops upside ya head, Saturday night .... bleurrrgh.

That was strangely cathartic.

Roxane by the Police. It goes ROOOX radio off if I’m around.

Watermelon sugar. It's basically those two words over and over again. And yes, I know what it's about. Someone's child sang watermelon sugar about a million times into the back of my head on a two-hour coach journey.
