I'm sorry. I forgot that you listened to the original version when it first came out.

I drove Eartha to the recording studio.

Fine choices, all.

But none compare to this:

I'll see your Feelings and raise you a Muskrat Love.

I started to included Muskrat Love, but there are just so many Captain and Tennille songs to choose from. Shop Around is almost as bad.

Allow me to invite y'all to the Tenth Circle Of Hell:

Anything by Gucci Mane. This is my son's clean up music. Y'all don't know my suffering. What makes it worse is that he's very prolific. Each day,my son introduces fresh hell from this man.

Ween, Push the Little Daisies

Yep.

And, what's likely to be an unpopular choice:

Bon Jovi, Livin' on a Prayer.

Save the Best for Last, by Vanessa Williams.

I swear to god, the song makes me homicidal. It's like I was given a post hypnotic suggestion to Hulk out whenever I hear it.

Paul McCartney's Wonderful Christmastime. Banal lyrics with the most annoying keyboard line in the history of pop music. It never fails to set my teeth on edge.

TerzaRima · Mar 20, 2014

Any and all by:...Bob Seger

HEY, now.

I'm amazed none of you have brought up that barge of lard called Honey, which I associate with the oldies station piped in at the dentist's office, and the lyrics of which are about as pleasant as a root canal. Why was this popular? Who thought this narrator was a nice guy?

See the tree, how big it's grown
But friend it hasn't been too long
It wasn't big
I laughed at her and she got mad
The first day that she planted it, was just a twig (douche)

Then the first snow came
And she ran out to brush the snow away
So it wouldn't die
Came runnin' in all excited
Slipped and almost hurt herself
And I laughed till I cried (douche)

She was always young at heart
Kinda dumb (douche) and kinda smart and I loved her so
And I surprised her with a puppy
Kept me up all Christmas Eve two years ago

And it would sure embarrass her
When I came in from workin' late
Cause I would know
That she'd been sittin' there and cryin'
Over some sad and silly late, late show

And honey, I miss you
And I'm bein' good
And I'd love to be with you
If only I could
(douche; smarmy)

The Dave Barry thing I linked on the prev. page says -

Honorable mention goes to Bobby Goldsboro, who got many votes for various songs, especially ``Honey.'' One voter wrote: ``Why does everybody hate Bobby Goldsboro's `Honey'? I hate it too, but I want to know WHY.''

Why? Consider this verse: ``She wrecked the car and she was sad; And so afraid that I'd be mad, but what the heck; Tho' I pretended hard to be; Guess you could say she saw through me; And hugged my neck.''

As one reader observed: ``Bobby never caught on that he could have bored a hole in himself and let the sap out.''

Bon Jovi

You said it. I dislike this singer in general. Jealousy is to blame.
Women love Bon, making an average joe feel like a worthless crumb.

Grr.

If I were a POW and they played this over and over to torture me I would talk.

That new Disney song.

I lurve how timeless this statement is.

I would have agreed with you if you said this yesterday
or last year, or the year before that,
or five years ago, ten, fifteen...

It wasn't always the case. The soundtracks for Mary Poppins and The Jungle Book, for example, are timelessly wonderful. But, yeah, recent ones sound like formula retreads.

As I recall, Muskrat Love was by Carpenters.

But it makes no difference. Because I have the one and only worst song ever recorded linked right here. Little Caesar and the Romans. Those Oldies But Goodies Reminds Me of You (sic).

Alleycat has been posting bad trucker country but what about this one?

Rave music is littered with annoying tunes but there is one song that certainly has no place in one. Ugh, pass the spray-on.

DreamWeaver · Mar 21, 2014

I've seen everything you all can throw out there, and I don't think more than one or two come anywhere close to...

...drumroll...

Baby I'm-A Want You, by Bread

(we used to refer to the album "The Best of Bread" as "The Silent Album")

Shadow_Ferret · Mar 22, 2014

Anything by Lorde.

I'm certainly not nominating it for most annoying song ever, but there was a time in my life when I couldn't stand to hear Stairway to Heaven one more time.

I would nominate almost all of the Christmas canon,

Xmas music is OK. But some tunes are truly not, including ones by Alvin & the Chipmunks.
