Another vote for “Free Bird”. Please, just never play it again. Also, “Stairway to Heaven”. It didn’t make any sense 35 years ago, it still doesn’t make any damn sense. > [@BaldDudePeekskill](#): > > My Heart will Go On, Celine Dion The year Titanic came out, the local NPR station had the soundtrack as a giftie for people who became “members”. And they played that goddamn friggin’ song every time the announcers got on to tell us how marvelous it was to be a public radio member. One morning I was getting ready for work and couldn’t take it any more. I called in and said I’d do a $120 pledge if and only if they stopped playing that damned song for the next hour. They did. 😃 The same public radio station once played “In a Gadda Da Vida” until they got $500 in pledges. That was hilarious. ---

I always thought that PBS TV stations would get a lot more pledges a lot faster if, instead of rolling out all their best stuff, they’d run episodes of _Full House_, _Cop Rock_, and _The Jerry Springer Show_ relentlessly (maybe a little 1980s SNL thrown in too), to remind people of what the alternative to public TV is. ---

> [@alted315](#): > > Not sure of the title but the chorus goes, Close the window da da da & it will be alright. Absolute dreck!! “We’re All Alone.” Rita Coolidge has a version. Boz Scaggs has a version. In my neck of the woods, a local DJ made a THIRD version combining the two. Have a nice day! 🙂 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/songs-i-never-need-to-hear-again/696709.md?page=7)
