Annoying, yes. But you have to like the Homer-ized version:
Life is a Highway - was a big hit when I was in college, so somewhere from 92-96. Sucked, sucked, sucked - and everyone played it!

The only song that makes me want to run in front of train is FEELINGS… nothing can be worse than that…
I THINK HE NEEDS TO CLEAR HIS THROAT… as do some of the other (like Shaggy)" Mongolian Throat Singers "
The vidio I have seen him in: Looks like his tongue is trying to escape his mouth.
I HATE “All I Wanna Do Is Have Some Fun” by Sheryl Crow, the “Friends” theme song, and some damn “Butterfly Kisses” song… they all make me want to take a dirt nap.
“Do They Know It’s Christmas” almost makes me hate the season.
So many great travesties here… So I’ll add a few
Just about anything by Led Zepp or Pink Floyd. Yes, they are important bands because they helped pave new directions in music, just as Uncle Tom’s Cabin was an important book because it helped pave new directions in social attitudes. Doesn’t mean they didn’t suck on their own merits, though.
Anything by Steely Dan, but particularly “My Old School” and “Deacon Blue”.
Anything by Steve Miller, but particularly “Jet Airliner”
Most current stuff has just so much crap infused into it that the list of good songs would take less time to write.
How come damn near every Santana song has a “Soul Sacrifice” drum break stuck into the middle of it? Come on, they took a perfectly good Zombies song and totally screwed it up!
I hope someone anally masterbates with your toothbrush, Carlos!
But the worst song ever is …“I got the music in me” by New Dog%$#kers (or something like that). Dreadful. Horrible. Unforgiveable.
Never kiss an animal that can lick its own butt.
Mexican Radio irks me to no extent.
I’ll second that one too.
Staind. Almost anything they do.
It’s been Awhile.
Outside [I think that’s the one with the whiny lyrics that make me want to put the guy out(side) of his misery.]
TwungTister, did you see “Six Feet Under” this week? One of the characters was sining “Killing Me Softly.” Heh.
I hate hate hate hate “Aqualung” by Jethro Tull.
You folks that hate the song “Killing me Softly” should check out the movie “About a Boy” with Hugh Grant sometime. It won’t make you like the song anymore, but it is a good movie.
As for me, I hate any song in which Neal Young opens his mouth. Someone told this guy he could sing?
Last time we had an anti-Neil Young thread, all kinds of fans showed up. Apparently, you’re a complete idiot and you eat babies and are generally a worthless person if you don’t like Neil Young.
Sorry I wasn’t there to give a dissenting point of view.
I have to say I like him, in theory. He seems like a decent, serious artist with something to say. I just can’t get past his voice. 6 inch galvinized nails chipping huge gouges out of a chalkboard couldn’t sound worse to me.
What? That annoyingly bouncy Don’t Worry Be Happy didn’t make it here on the list yet? No other song has made me want to buy one of the smiley-faced shirts with a bullet hole in it like that song.
And there was some song with dogs barking…eew.
My vote goes to the entire oeuvre of Gary Puckett and the Union Gap. Which was like two songs.
“WOOOOOOOOOOOOman! Ohhhhhh, WOOOOOmaaaaan!”
“Yooooooooooung girl! Get out of my miiiiiiind!”
Makes me imagine some slimy pedophile singing from prison.
I know I’m gonna get set on fire for this but…anything sung by Bob Dylan. Hey, he just can’t SING! Write…well, whatever, I am not slamming anybody’s idea of poetry or composing, but God. He could not suck harder at singing if somebody begged him. Just shut up, Bob!
The song “Cocaine”. Please. Can’t make up your mind whether it’s a great high or a great lie…or both? I have an idea. Shut up, stick a straw so far up your nose it spears your brain, and never play this song again. That would help. Thanks.
While I love Southern Rock (quite a bit) and I used to adore Lynyrd Skynyrd, for the love of all that is Dixie minus any chicks, No More Free Bird!. I can hear that song starting up and get in a bad mood. Jesus…don’t even think about going to a concert…they play that monotonous drivel for every lousy encore, and then, play it for at least thirty eardrum shredding minutes.
I am about to get pissy about “Sweet Home Alabama”, as well, since there’s a station here that thinks it has to be played once a day in case anybody forgets about it. It ain’t 1974 anymore, you redundant morons.
I hate almost all of that mellow music from the 70s. All of the BeeGees early stuff.
Mostly, though, I hate that song “Wild Fire”. The one about the girl with the pony that ran away and she went out & disappeared looking for it.
Actually, I hear she staged the whole pony running away thing so she could get away from that singer’s awful voice. She left the pony’s stall door open and rode it to another county where she hooked up with a guy who listened to music that doesn’t suck.
Yer all mistaken. The worst song ever is “Take Me Home Tonight” by Eddie Money.
Just like Ronnie says: This song sucks major ass…
“Break My Stride”, by Matthew Wilder (and let me be absolutely clear that I had to look up the artist of this annoying excuse for a pop song on the internet).
Sylkyn: Just curious. How familiar are you with Dylan’s songs? I sometimes feel that a lot of people with your sentiment only know of say, his horrible mid-eighties period or something like that…
