What's your LEAST favorite song

I hate to say ok boomer but that is a painfully boomer take
Seriously, "most modern songs"? In the era with the most new music being produced in a massive number of different genres and styles that would have been unimaginable just a generation ago?
I like the oldies as much as anyone else, heck I only really got into listening to music after discovering The Beatles and '70s prog rock as a teen. But if you can't find good music being produced in 2025, that's not a problem with the music industry, that's a problem with you.
If anyone reading this struggles to find new artists they like, I recommend checking out NPR's Tiny Desk concerts as well as KEXP's live performances on YouTube. I've found a lot of artists I love from these sources.

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

Sugar, baby.
They somehow managed to be a worse Limp Bizkit.
-
"What's going on" by Four Non-Blondes - what a childish nepo baby song and what a dumb fucking name for a band.
I don't understand this comment... did some googling and I missing the nepotism bit?

Any modern country song. bonus if they say boots, beer, etc.
"big truck, love christ. Second truck, hate wife"

Tattoo is their worst song. I love Van Halen.

Toss up between Jenny (867-5309) for being absolutely disgusting on a conceptual level for glorifying stalker behavior or Owner of a Lonely Heart for going fucking nowhere and then having the audacity to drop a blaring synth note like it's a crescendo before going back to nothing.
wrote last edited by [email protected]That's not what Jenny is about. Jenny was a friend of the band that Jim Keller (song's author) was dating. There's lots of songs from back then that actually are creepy but I don't think that's one of them.
Also, a song about something bad is not an endorsment. For example Angel of Death by Slayer. Nirvana covered a Leadbelly song called Ain't It a Shame which is about the narrator beating his wife. Not an endorsment of spousal abuse from one of music's most famous feminists.
Sometimes s song is just telling a story, be it positive or negative.
As for Owner of a Lonely Heart, agreed. Annoying and over-played.

A. K. A. Which song do you hate the most?
There are two songs that I will verbally abuse a movie for having on its soundtrack.
"What A Wonderful World" by Louis Armstrong, and "Fly Me To The Moon" by Frank Sinatra.
If you put those songs in...anything, you're a fucking hack.
WAWW has been used both straight and ironically TO DEATH. It has been played over beautiful and horrific scenes. There's nothing you can use it to say that hasn't already been said by someone more clever than you.
FMTTM is the song completely uncreative people put in movies that have something to do with the moon. "We have an establishing shot of the moon and we need some licensed music for the soundtrack. Gee, now what's the hackiest laziest most cliched pissbabyest lack of a brain stemiest thing we could put here?" "You're not going to believe this, but I found a Sinatra song that might just be a lazy enough choice. It's already been used in all the other movies, is that lazy enough?"

A. K. A. Which song do you hate the most?
Anything by Drake.

MmmBop. I hated it the first time I heard it, I hate it now, and I only have to be reminded of it's existence and it will play in my head because it is so fucking catchy that somebody must have sacrificed the minimum of one newborn to some dark deity that thrives one human suffering.
Hansen has a large discography with a bunch of good stuff in it and MmmBop.

U2
Aerosmith - love in an elevator
Any christmas shit
Carol of the Bells kicks ass.
Tell you what I can't stand, is The Obligatory Christmas Release. Some musical act, band or increasingly a solo "artist" gets big and especially if they have one brand-defining hit, they are required to do a Christmas release that is the thing they're known for with sleigh bells and a word salad of Christmas words including a refrain where they just shout "It's Christmas!!!" Los Del Rio did a Macarena Christmas mix. And we allowed society to continue anyway.

A. K. A. Which song do you hate the most?
Zombie by The Cranberries. I just can't stand it.
-
A. K. A. Which song do you hate the most?
Any of the 6 million versions of Hallelujah except the original Leonard Cohen and Jeff Buckley.
I swear wannabe pop singers see it as some sort of rite of passage but they universally murder it either by trying to replicate on of those two and coming up painfully short or embellishing it with flourishes and superfluous variations.
It doesn't make you look deep and thoughtful it just highlights what an average singer you are.

Sweet Caroline - Neil Diamond.
I’m from New England so I hear it often and the back story makes me cringe every time and I haaate itI sing Sweet Child O Mine and Sweet Caroline with the other songs melodies. Confuses people nicely.

Whatever coldplay song is on the radio
I was about to post Coldplay too. I hate his singing voice and the music also sucks.
