So what is your most hated song of alltime? The one that you have heard so many times that you just can't bear the thought of hearing it again. For me it's Freebird by Lynrd Skynrd

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Years ago when I was just a small contractor building custom homes I got fed up with my crew constantly changing the channel on the job site radio back and forth from Country to Rock to Country to Rock. I realized that not only was the constant bickering bad for morale it was costing me as the guy who had to make payroll each week, doh ray me - money. So I decided to ban radios from the job site to stop the constant bickering, this had a unifying effect on my crew who now banded together against their evil overlord - that would be me. After a bunch of complaining about the right of workers to have music on the job (not true) I told the men that if they wanted music on the job then I had no problem with that, just with the radios, so if they wanted music they could sing and I would have no problem with that. Pretty clever for a young, boss man - never underestimate a construction crew. They got together at the bar that night and hatched up a plan to get even with me. They took me up on my offer and rehearsed several Las Vega show tunes, the favourite being Tom Jones' It's Not Unusual which they serenaded me with for the next few days. I almost always have a song running in the back of my head because I am a singer myself but this endless loop got into my brain like a worm and it wouldn't come out, it was even in my dreams. I eventually capitulated when I couldn't take it anymore, morale improved because of the unifying force I presented and the Country and Rock guys took turns on alternate days with the radio so it was a win overall BUT I still can't bear the sound of 'It's Not Unusual'.

In addition to Freebird I also hate Jack and Diane by John Mellencamp Cougar. There are others but those are probably top of the list.

any song by Rod Stewart!
Noooo! Great track! One I actually love. Don't ever book me to DJ your wedding! ?
I consider that his best song, still an automatic reach to change the station. It only hurts my ears, his other songs hurt my teeth too, and his disco is waterboarding
I like Freebird. Mine would be Seasons of the Sun by Terry Jacks. It’s just so formulaic and sickeningly sweet. It just sets my teeth on edge everytime I hear it.

Roxanne by the Police. It pierces my brain and I have to change it immediately!

I agree with your choice also. Free Bird is just a long drawn out man-whine session ... what a borefest. To make matters worse, this song was chosen as my high school class song (circa 1981) ... talk about rubbing salt on the wound, sheesh.

Now that's odd!
I kinda liked that song, until I saw that ewww video!
"If her Daddy's poor, just do as you please" - that's a lousy attitude.
"You're so vain" always annoys the shit out of me, why shouldn't he think the song is about him IT is about him. "Afternoon Delight" is so dopey and the voices so infantile it feels pedo; It's like adding to the Barney Song, "I love you, you love me so let's get a room". The band Chicago is an automatic switch the station and I think "If you leave me now" is the worst of the worst. It's the elevator music in hell (poetically speaking)

Anything rap/hiphop is disliked just because, no need to hate... genre is not liked.

It's the happy melody bit colliding with the horrible words.
And they are both awful.

Sexual Healing by Marvin Gaye.
Just those lyrics..."Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!" I'm pissed right now thinking about it!

Yeah, that was a pretty lame attempt at trying to follow up "Let's Get It On"...which, by the way, might be the best fuck song ever!
@Fit-50something That's hilarious. I actually like that song!
Love Shack...pointless and annoying. Have to change the channel everytime!

@jellyfish This post was to list songs we hate....and l did. It wasn't to ask if you agree or disagree with my opinion. And l don't need any 'funky cold medina'...OR advice from you.
Annoying song for sure...most of their stuff is tho...
JimG:
I cannot decide if the lyrics, the music, or the voice was the shittiest thing about that song, but they sure as hell belonged together.
that’s my last name. lol you can’t imagine how many times I’ve been teased about that. I live the song though. Reminds me of college. As a parent of kids under 10 I have to say if I hear that damn Finger family song one more time I will blow my freaking brains out
