What's your LEAST favorite song
-
Guns ‘N Roses - Welcome to the Jungle. I don’t like GNR full stop, but the radio station I used to wake up to on the alarm clock would play that song at exactly the same time everyday.
Couldn’t understand why I used to wake up angry every morning until I changed stations.
YOU KNOW WHERE YOU ARE??????

That Mariah Carey one. You know the one.
In defense of her music, if this is All I Want for Christmas I loved the cover of it in Love Actually. I think the gal who sings it is the one who voices Marceline? Also, if you've ever done kitchen work in a place that forces Christmas music people actually get quite happy and come together. So...there's that.
I personally will always be addicted to Always By My Baby. Which is an insanely fun song to sing, because of the modulation. Going high to low, it's a fun challenge and feels great requires a bit of control. But that's just me.
I also think she might be the best selling female pop-artist globally. But I am not sure. This is all just stuff off the top of my head.
Lastly, and this is on her acting and not her as a human being - I absolutely fucking loved her in Precious. Especially as she has this one like that's something akin to "What do you think I am" when Precious asks her what ethnicity she is. As someone who's mixed, it's like candy for my brain. It's a good play.
Sang through this whole post, so it might be messier than it already was coming through on someone's opinion.

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.

Personally, it seems like I can't go a day without hearing one of The Four Seasons in media.

A. K. A. Which song do you hate the most?
wrote last edited by [email protected]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.

Take me to church by Hozier
Not even gunna lie, I hate Hozier. I call it "spiritual white people music." I am going to get hosed for this, but that one band that sang that song Lonely Boy or whatever is also part of that mix to me.

Probably Acky Breaky Heart.
I have learned to love this song over time as it is sort of synonymous with a time period and music style world-wide and that's not so bad.

I'm a crack head for this song. Some times I will just be sitting around and start mouthing the beat. Can't feel it.

It's beautiful, yet basic. I wasn't sure if I should have been offended or not once an ex said I reminded them of this song. Felt strange.

Orange Crush by REM.
Oh come on! Shiny Happy People is by far worse.

I'll see your Sandstorm and raise you Cotton Eyed Joe.

“I’m blue da da Dee da da da. “
Just typing it out makes me cringe.

U2
Aerosmith - love in an elevator
Any christmas shit
wrote last edited by [email protected]I still to this day have not listened to Aerosmith, so I've got nothing to say on them. I have two friends that both like/love U2 however. One took me to a show, and it was good but I don't think I would see it myself. I really do like Sunday Bloody Sunday, although I for sure listen to the Saul Williams version more often than the original. I think the original has more emotional standing however, as it's more poignant as Bono is Irish. (*Idk about the rest of the band, so idk if others are Irish as well.)

A. K. A. Which song do you hate the most?
Anything by guns and roses. I've turned off other people's radios at work when they come on. It's almost started fights but that shit can fuck right off. I can deal with anything else but there's so etbihg about gnr that gets up my nose.

A. K. A. Which song do you hate the most?
Sweet Home Alabama
When I still listened to the radio in the car, it started on one station, so I switched to another rock station. It was playing there too, on a different part. Switched to yet another rock station and it was also playing that terrible song!

A. K. A. Which song do you hate the most?
I've been trying to find it for a while now, but I can't.
Constantly plays at Tesco supermarkets, goes like A ha a ha a ha, yuhoo yuhoo yuhoo, a ha ha haa haaa haaaa. No lyrics, just womans voice making these, I guess meant to be "happy and excited" noises made into a song that plays on repeat.

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

A. K. A. Which song do you hate the most?
"I'll be riding shotgun, underneath the hot sun".... It's the most aggressively boring thing I've ever heard

A. K. A. Which song do you hate the most?
wrote last edited by [email protected]Idk what the song is called, but that song that says "Don't Listen to a Word I Say." Still going to get crucified but call this "quirky white people music." I also do not know...wait I do know the name of this one. Safe and Sound, awful song. I don't think either are my least favorite but both were just awful to live through. I am glad they're gone.
Which is funny, because I later heard that one of the Safe & Sound folks is one of the guys from PNAU and I like them. I just find those two songs to be droning for different reasons. One is mindless and campy, and the other is mindless and falsely whimsical. Which I guess sounds like campy, but I feel like they sit in adjacent er...camps.
*I laughed because With You Forever is two steps away from Safe & Sound but I like it so much more.

Old U2 is actually pretty decent, I quite like The Unforgettable Fire

A. K. A. Which song do you hate the most?
Anything by Morrissey. The histrionics are annoying enough but I think he's an objectively bad musician. He seems to just meander around with no discernable melody. Like, what are you even trying to do man? I'm pretty certain the actually catchy Smiths songs were written by someone else.
Runner up: Hold My Hand by Hootie and the Blowfish. If it comes on at a place of business I will immediately walk out of that business.
