JUMP - Van Halen. Jump off a fucking cliff. I can deal with nearly ALL VH - the Roth years were tremendous, Hagar was annoying but the band evolved well. But in 84, all I heard was JUMP and God I hated it and still do. DX7 PUKE.
EVERYTHING from Counting Crowes or Hootie and The Blowfish.
HIP TO BE SQUARE. NO. GOD NO. It never was and never is.
DANCING IN THE DARK. Original Version. I love Bruce dearly, but holy shit what an embarrassing disaster that song and vid were. I've heard it acoustic and can stomach that.
There was just something about the DX7 that repelled me deeply. FOUL instrument, used mostly for EEEEEVIL.
Anything by Alanis Morrisette. God, she was the worst.
I remember, way back when, the local rock station used to have this thing called Rate at 8. At 8 PM, they'd play a brand new single and people would call in and rate it. Well, one night they played "You Oughta Know". I had never heard of her in my life at that point, and I thought to myself "Man, that's the worst damned song I've ever heard"
So of course it became a smash hit and she became a big star. Ugh.
I can remember taking class trips in I think 8th and 9th grades and the girls on the bus would sing American Pie and Cecilia over and over and over again - and this was in 1989-90! Those songs were already 15-20 years old.

Flea's bass part pops and growls nicely in that song. I dug it. But I can understand why it would grate on people.
I liked it for maybe the first 3000 times I heard it.
I don't know why, but there are a ton of overplayed songs that don't bother me nearly as much. Maybe because some people give them credit as the first heavy metal band, because they used the words as lyrics, but it just ain't true.
TOM PETTY - one of my all-time favorites, polluted by fucking Jeff Lynne, put out a series of albums that sounded like they were made by a Tom Petty animatron. I. Won't. Back. Down.

I thought it was an old Oberheim analog synth like Rush used on Subdivisions and Countdown. Same brass tone.
And not because they are awful, because a friend of mine got really into LZ in the late '90s. I mean REALLY into Zep and it was all he would play on his car radio and want to talk about when we went somewhere. He overdosed me on Zeppelin and I still don't want to hear Ramble On or The Ocean or Living Loving Maid for the 8 zillionth time.
That and I think a lot of their songs were poorly produced and recorded.
Everything X Meadowlander said, that is +2 at least Â

Remember the first time you heard it? Seger, howling - great song, right? Then yeah, Tom Cruise, I get it, FUN!
Then 30 straight fucking years of daily radio play, EVERY cover band in America and it isn't a wedding without OLD TIME ROCK AND ROLL.
It does NOT soothe my soul.

I couldn't take it, just had to turn the station any time it came on.
I’d like to add American Pie. Boring, boring song about how the Beatles, the Stones and Dylan ruined music?

YES!!!!
Good band, Great singer, incredibly annoying song.
The music is meh. Nothing noteworthy, but tolerable. Her voice, though, is nails on a chalkboard to me.
Oh God. That song makes my skin crawl.
By contrast, Marvin Gaye's What's Going On is fantastic
Funny. I've NEVER heard it.
Maybe you should change you music delivery system(s).

If I hear that "Thank U Next" song one more time, I'm gonna bash my head against the wall.

Consider yourself fortunate. Millenials, man

Because pretending to like Madanna helped you get laid in the 80s and 90s.

I mean even straight guys get into it when they hear her songs. I don't get it.

Well, I can't attest to that, but I can't imagine it helps in the year 2019.
Also, Amy Winehouse - Rehab. Ugh.
^^This^^
Can't stand their stuff.

Lady Gaga did this song at some awards show forget which one but it was really good so much better than the original imo
Any Maroon 5 song.
Greg from LI : 12:47 pm : link : reply
His voice is just too terrific.
But anything by Wilson Phillips? Someday somebody's going make you want to turn around and say goodbye!!

... mouth,
I'd rather drink diarrhea then hear those songs.
