Your most hated single song?

Heartfeltdawn

Because of every shitty school disco. Because of every shitty indie club who played it for a laugh. Because of every single club that played it on student nights.

Hallelujah or Wonderwall, take your pick and then take the other one too.

Tainted Love by Soft Cell - and the 12" version is worse

I thought of this one too. I think the Wilson Pickett version is pretty good, but you have to try to listen to it as if The Commitments was never filmed. Not easy.

The birdie song by the tweets. As an angst ridden teen adults would try to drag me onto the dancefloor at weddings etc to have a dance. If I'd had a machine gun I would gladly have slaughtered everybody in the room.

When MrsTheWeary was still the future MrsTheWeary we had a romantic weekend trip to Paris. In the restaurant on the first night an accordion player stood by us and began to play. How Parisian, how romantic, how...bloody hell that's the Birdie Song he's playing  I wouldn't like to say I hate any song but if I had to name one this would certainly be a strong contender.

"Candle in the Wind" by Elton John, in fact pretty much anything he's recorded to be honest, he makes my flesh crawl...

Jeremiah

Wonderwall

Does no one on here remember the crime that is 'Lady In Red'  by Chris De Burgh? I've almost broken me spine just rushing to get to the radio to turn it off

Actually, God Save the Queen would be right up there for the lyrics alone. I find it nauseating that we glorify one person, saving her from an as yet undefined fate and assuring her happiness over ours.

Republican sentiments aside what irritates me about the God Save The Queen lyrics is the sheer idleness of rhyming Queen with Queen and Queen.

God Save Our Gracious Queen/Long live our noble Queen/God Save The Queen.

Now, you could get away with the first and third lines, maybe, but the second line MUST have a decent rhyme.

For instance God Save Our Gracious Queen/Long may she cook and clean/God Save The Queen.

Or God Save Our Gracious Queen/Long may she strut and preen/God Save The Queen.

Or of course: God Save Our Gracious Queen/She Ain't No Human Been/God Save The Queen.

Anything. Just not Queen.

So true. I'd also include Mull of Kintyre in the same sack of crap.

My answer to this could change on any given day but for now, I'll go for Work by Rihanna - something about "Wur Wur Wur" or other.

Generic music for Crapital FM listening fucktards.

There are many. I agree the List includes the Birdie Song. There was also once Renee and Renata. Most of the UK's Eurovision songs. Demi Roussos  could be pretty painful. I kind of agree about Danny Boy, though only because many moons ago there was some middle aged Irish "Entertainer" (pre Val Doonican) who appeared regularly on the TV and sang it every single time. I do have a Bill Evans version on CD, which I do rather like.
