A. K. A. Which song do you hate the most?

Gonna go against the grain here with something classical: Pachabel’s Canon in D. I liked it when I was a kid, for at least the first 10 or 20 times I heard it, but since then I’ve probably heard it thousands of times, and I’m not even a strings player. I’m not exaggerating either; it’s in so many commercials, weddings, movies, just over loudspeakers in the grocery store… ugh it’s inescapable. Pretty the first few times, sure, but it’s so aggressively bland.
Have you seen Pachebel Rant?
Haha I have, at least if I’m thinking of the right thing, the YouTube video? He stretches a few (my degrees are in music theory so I can hear what he means and not all of them are exactly the same chord progressions) but I feel seen nonetheless.
I didn’t have a solid answer to the question until I read this. Absolutely gets the worst response from me.
First two chords and I’m like “nooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!”
I could have sworn a friend of mine wrote this, because he often said the exact same thing. But, he was a string player.
Personally, it seems like I can’t go a day without hearing one of The Four Seasons in media.
Yeah, I feel for the string players, honestly. Especially the ones who take wedding gigs.
Kokomo
Best me to it.
All I Wanna Do Is Have Some Fun by Sheryl Crow, or any song where the artist is doing that annoying kind-of-singing-but-also-just-talking thing (NOT to be confused with rap, I do enjoy lots of rap and hip-hop). It’s hard to explain. I think Red Hot Chili Peppers has a song where they do it too, and it annoys the fuck outta me.
That Mariah Carey one. You know the one.
She has so many good contenders, but one stands above them all. Good (horrible!) choice.
I was struggling to think of something I truly hate
I was coming up with a lot of bad tracks, sure, but they don’t really inspire hatered
This one however, viscerally upsetting from the first bar
I Will Survive - Something about this song just makes me murderous.
Don’t Stop Believing - By the gods, please do stop. I love Journey, but just don’t play this.
Bohemian Rhapsody - I think I’m just really tired of it. It’s been held up at such a pinnacle for so long and played far too often and I just can’t anymore. I don’t care. Turn it off.
Dance Monkey, for personal reasons
Body like a Back Road 🤢🤮
Take me to church by Hozier
Thats such an amazing song!
I think there’s so many Hozier songs that are better, but I agree, I don’t think it’s bad by any stretch. Maybe just a tad overplayed? Can see how people would hate it for that.
Currently, that shitty pop song that sampled “Blue” by Eiffle 65. It was already a perfectly good club song (imo) and there was no need to ruin it.
Most Justin Bieber songs but I despise his early stuff. I heard baby way too much back when you couldn’t escape it
Edit: I thought of an even worse one, pon pon shit from cyberpunk. That song is the only reason bodyheat isn’t my go to station in that game.

What a toxic, abusive, petty little shit she seems to proudly declare herself as.
Country music.
Black Hole Sun.
It’s a tedious, grating and ridiculously repetitive dirge.
One day I realized I had been hearing it at least hourly on the radio while driving delivery and some switch in my head flipped. Can’t stand it. I want to never hear it again. I’ve heard Black Hole Sun more times in my life than I want to and that amount needs to stop getting higher
Only partly related, I invented a fire eating trick named the Black Hole Sun
Shake it Off by Taylor Swift.
When it came out, I was a regular gym-goer. I would spend an hour and a half at the gym three days a week and hear that song at least three times every single time I was there. And then you’d hear it anywhere else that played music as well, like stores. It was just too much.
Game Over by Falling In Reverse
Just listen to the first line and you’ll understand
