You’re not the only one. The first time I heard this I thought “Is that Adele? She sounds awful!” And now it’s played over and over and over and over and over and I hate it even more.
There’s a lot of crappy Christmas music that would fall into this category as well.
Huh…I felt immediate hatred for the unintelligible country music song in the Geico Texas commercial. I can’t understand a thing they’re saying, but it gets stuck in my head with what I know are incorrect lyrics. I hate the song so much that I don’t want to waste time researching it.
“If I could separate what’s real from what I’m dreamin’ and somethin’ with another hey” Worst earworm I’ve had in a long time. :mad:
The most recent? There’s this one that goes “You make me feel like Na Na Na Na Na, Na Na Na Na Na…” and it’s on all the blasted time!! Good lord, there’s so much “Na Na” in that song that it makes Journey’s “Lovin’ Touchin’ Squeezin’” sound verbose.
“Party Rock Anthem.” I’d never heard it before until I watched New Year’s Rockin’ Eve (or part of it) the other night. What a load of tripe. I have no idea why this song is popular, but I suspect copious amounts of beer must be involved.
That’s the band Cobra Starship - I also despise that song.
Practically anything with autotune gets my hatred. It was “cute” when Cher used it in what I though was a one-off use of a special effect. Little did I know…
No hate for “It Girl” yet? I hate this song top to bottom and side to side. I can’t decide if the banality or the misogyny is predominant. And it sticks in my head like nobody’s business.
katy perry’s “Firework”. horrible excuse for music, the only reason she is popular is because of her boobs. her video even has her shooting sparklers from her boobs. pathetic
While it’s true that Katy Perry throwaways have been rising steadily on my HATE-O-METER, they have yet to displace Kid Rock’s horrible All Summer Long.
Not only does it directly rip off (not sample, steal from) TWO other acts, but he adds some desultory lyrics of his own and manages to rhyme “things” with “things.”
It’s not a rhyme if it’s the same word.
I don’t see how the music industry can be legally permitted to go after individuals for copying songs and yet let Kid Rock steal them wholesale.
I hate that song with the fire of a million burning suns, too, but there is a type of rhyme called “identity rhyme” which is rhyming a word with itself or a homophone. It is put to terrible use in that song, though.
I don’t know for certain, but I have to imagine both those songs were licensed for use in “All Summer Long.”
Anything done by “The Tallest Man on Earth”. That stuff is horrifying, and I’m sure the only reason he got the gig is that he (sorta) sounds like Bob Dylan. Of course, I never liked Bob Dylan either, but at least he was a “voice for a generation” and his music had some substance to it. This “Tallest Dude” is just difficult to listen to. I would have linked to him, but I don’t want to open any webpage w/ his stuff on it.
