“I loove you. I honestly loooove yoouuuuuuu.” _sniff__sniff_  
Now how do I get these songs back out of my head?!?!?!?  
_running screaming from room, clutching her pounding head_  
Aaaaaaaaaggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhh…

Life is teaching you some painful lessons. But it is from adversity that strength is born. You may have lost the inning, but I know you’ll win the game.

NickyLarson and Catrandom: Someone else is typing this for me, because my eyes burst right out of my head when I read the lyrics you two posted. There is a special circle in Hell waiting for you. They have speakers. They only play three songs–_Honey, Seasons in the Sun,_ and this delightful ditty…

“Someone left a cake out  
In the rain  
I don’t think that I can take it  
Cause it took so long to bake it  
And I’ll never have that recipe  
Agaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiinnnnn…”

Ouch, Girlby, that was truly a low blow.

Am I the only one that _likes_ “Doo Wah Diddy” and “Under the Boardwalk”?

OK, back on track …

I was going to put a Michael Bolton song down, but that would be just because his contrived emotional wailing is abrasive. That doesn’t really fit the category.

The songs should have a sickeningly catchy quality about them that can cause fits of homicidal rage …

Your Love

This is fun actually.

“Ooh I’ve been to Georgia and California  
And anywhere I could run  
I took the hand of a preacher man  
And we made love in the sun  
But I ran out of places and friendly faces  
Because I had to be free  
I’ve been to paradise  
But I’ve never been to me”

You’ve got me running, going out of my mind  
You’ve got me thinking that I’m wasting my time  
Don’t bring me down  
No no no no no. A-woo hoo!  
I’ll tell you once more before I get off the floor  
Don’t bring me down

Don’t bring me down. BRUCE!  
Don’t bring me dow-ow-own. BRUCE!  
Don’t bring me down! BRUCE!  
Don’t bring me dow-ow-ow-own!

Nope! I like them too. I was very young and just discovering boys when Doo Wah Diddy was playing. It puts a skip back in my step when I hear it. 🙂

Here’s one I have always hated.
