“Take the Money and Run” by the Steve Miller Band because of the clapping.
“Do they know it’s Christmas”… for many reasons.
That would probably be “Can’t Get You Out of My Head” (appropriate enough title for an ear-worm).
“The Joker” by the Steve Miller Band because of oo-ee baby and other lines such as
People talk about me, baby
Say I’m doin’ you wrong, doin’ you wrong
Well, don’t you worry baby
Don’t worry
Cause I’m right here, right here, right here, right here at home*
*making out with the entire Dallas cheerleaders corps, for all we know.
Steve Miller truly is the Pompousass of Love.
I get knocked down
But I get up again
You’re never going to keep me down
And now I hate myself for opening this thread. I’m going to spend the rest of the afternoon with a mish-mash of horrendous music ringing through my head.
I’m willing to give the local radio station $50 if they don’t play Nickelback’s “Something in Your Mouth” for one full day. I used to be okay with Nickelback but this song has pushed me into actively hating them.
Sadly, I can eliminate your ignorance here. The title is “Before He Cheats”, and the singer is Carrie Underwood.
Which is actually mentioned in the song.
The song is a conversation between the guy who was caught (Rik Rok) and Shaggy, who’s giving him advice. When Shaggy tells him to say it wasn’t him, Rik starts listing reasons that won’t work. Shaggy keeps it up.
And this is the last verse of the song:
Then the last part of the chorus repeats.
“So What” by Pink. The opening "na na na"s are delivered in a pouting style usually heard out of taunting six year olds. Plus the song is how after losing her husband she’ll get drunk and start fights–but it doesn’t matter because “I’m a rock star”. Honey you’re not even in the same time zone as rock. Worse yet her last big hit was also a I’m-bigger-than-all-you-little-people song, “U and Your Hand”. The music industry can easily replace you and then you’re just another drunk nobody.
“Hollaback Girl” by Gwen Stefani and “London Bridge” by Fergie are the absolute dregs. Moronically stupid doesn’t even describe their lyrics. And even though they sound like they were sung by mentally retarded first graders, they even throw in swear words for that “street cred”:dubious:.
I came in here specifically to mention this song. God, I hate it. Almost every Nickelback song has an extremely irritating nudge-nudge-wink-wink quality, like the lead singer thinks you will be extremely scandalized by his dumb-ass lyrics that are in reality safe enough to play on small town radio stations. This particular song is made worse by the fact that while it seems dirty, it doesn’t even make any damn sense. The only saving grace of hearing this song on the radio is that at least you don’t have to look at the lead singers incredibly ugly face.
Gah, I hate Nickelback.
Popsicle Toes
From the country side ( I know, lots to choose from here):
Jesus, Take the Wheel by Carrie Underwood
anything from Gretchen Wilson
almost anything from the late Conway Twitty
Indian Outlaw and Don’t Take the Girl by Tim McGraw
There are others, but these are the ones that top my personal list.
From the oldies list:
anything Michael Jackson did after* Thriller*
If this song ever comes on I have to leave the room, no exceptions.
Would you like to see it disturbingly mocked by turning the singer into a racist, homicidal emo with gender issues?

Waaay nsfw audio. I apologize to everyone who watches that in advance.
Not to defend this abortion of a dancehall/pop abomination, but the song is pretty much a joke, built on a bit that Eddie Murphy used to do way back when he was funny. It was either Raw or Delirious.
Shaggy may not be Jamaican born, (I didn’t know that!), but he has definitely dropped some reggae classics. Oh Carolina, for one.
ETA: Jrgaon, take me with you! I can’t stay in the room with that song either. I cannot stomach Lil’ Jon. Usher either, for that matter.
But the girlfriend’s a prep, don’t you see? And preps deserve any and all abuse they get, because how dare they exist, with their perfect hair and their pastel sweaters and especially their hot boyfriends which we all know the “scene” girls deserve more than them. :rolleyes: For more preppy abuse, see Paramore’s video for “Misery Business.”
As for “My Humps,” the Black Eyed Peas used a passage from the “New World Symphony” for that. If I were Dvorak, I would rise up from the grave just to punch will.i.am. for screwing up my works, and go haunt whoever the hell Sexual Harassment is (the guys who recorded “I Need a Freak,” a superior song IMO)
Down Under by Men at Work is obnoxious, jingoistic nonsense.
I’ll nominate a few.
-
“Your Love” by Outfield. Every time I hear the first line, I cringe. Why does the guy sing like that?
-
“Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)” by Beyonce. This one is bad enough if you hear it on the radio, but it’s infinitely worse if you watch the music video. I normally like videos that are all about the dancing, but the choreography in this one is so ridiculously bad. And now when the song gets stuck in my head, it’s accompanied by a visual of the awful dancing. The only words I know are "all the single ladies, all the single ladies " and “if you like it then you shoulda put a ring on it” and “wuh uh oh, uh oh oh,” and these bits repeat infinitely in my head. The ultimate obnoxious earworm.
-
“Japan” by CocoRosie. I actually like CocoRosie a lot but this is basically a lesson in how to write an obnoxious song.
I can’t even think of any more because #2 is currently overwhelming my brainwaves.
Thanks - I had finally managed to get rid of that one a few weeks ago…:smack:
Oh HELL yeah. And Put Me In Coach, by John Fogerty. DIE, mother 'ucker!
Actually, that song is called “Centerfield.”
I want to add to the annoying song list “Calle Ocho” by Pit Bull. The Spanish part of the chorus keeps running through my head.:mad:
