Haha, I have to agree with you, Walker. Also, that song by Daft Punk, celebrate – I kept mistaking that for Cher. **shudder**

My post loathed song at this very instant is that Lil’ Romeo song. It drives me crazy, yet my mind will not let it die. And it’s not so much 'Romeo himself that annoys me, but Tita/Tito(?) – I have her endlessly screeching in my head… the part that sounds like she’s saying “porno.”

There are more, but currently I can’t remember them because I am saturated with Lil’ Romeo. ugh.

Ooooh! Ooooooohh! Oooooohhh! That song gives me the skeeves. “Swim through your veins like a fish in the sea…” Ack!

I also nominate any and all versions of _These Are the Moments_. It belongs right next to _Breathe_ on the juke box in Hell.

“Don’t take the Girl” by Tim McGraw.

It’s the most maudlin piece of dreck I’ve heard since “The Living Years.”

That would be “Follow Me” by Uncle Kracker.

One day when I am undisputed Ruler of the Universe, there will be a level of hell for those who come up with songs that annoy me. Celine Dion is going there. Whitney Houston will be her next door neighbour, and Mariah Carey will be just down the road. They’re not the worst though. A special corner of my level of hell is reserved for whoever came up with that bloody Hampsterdance. _They_ are going to burn.

Did you know that the Hampsterdance is a chipmunk-ized version of the theme music in the old Disney “Robin Hood” cartoon movie??

I was watching that movie with my nieces and nephews one day and when that music came on, I nearly fell out of my chair! We ran to the computer to pull up the dancing rats, and sure enough, it was the same music, just played at a high speed. I think there might have even been some words to it in the movie.

“I know  
the pie-  
ces  
fit…” by somebody I don’t know.

I also really despise that awful, boring new Depeche Mode song. It’s getting a push on our local Alt-Rock station, too. Bleah.

Hmmpf,

Does NO ONE here remember “The Bertha Butt Boogie?”  
How about “Run, Johnny Run?”  
Or “Billy, don’t be a hero?”

I guess for me, it’s a toss-up between “Muskrat Love” and that “Loving You (is easy cause you’re beautiful)” song. That woman could torture dogs for a ten-mile radius.

The Live version of OUTSIDE with Arron Lewis and Fred Durst!  
The song is so played out but they play it on the crappy radio stations all the time still.

Hey, you’re right. Its been a few years since I’ve seen that movie, but I’m sure it is the same song.

I LIKE Hampsterdance.

just put the Lady Marmalade song on mute…you’re good to go(have to be a pig once in a while, I appologize).  
Worst song right now…Not real crazy about the new “Dave Matthews Band” song, whatever it’s called.

Someone can finish this hate for me, since I only heard it once while I was driving the U-Haul northward with my son beside me (who, of course, had control of the radio).

It might be Destiny’s Child, if only because it sounded like a trio of black girls singing. The song is instantly recognizable because it samples the guitar riff from Stevie Nick’s “Edge of Seventeen.” The lyrics were incomprehensible and didn’t match the sample. Not once.

Yep, the whole fuckin’ song is sung to [guitar] numphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphmanumphma [/guitar]

Um, that’s the **Bootylicious** “song” by Destiny’s Child. I can’t believe Stevie Nicks let them use that sample…I hope they paid her ALOT of money for it.

Well, I do hate that “I need to be a whore to feed my kid” song. Can’t the b\*tch get a job at McDonald’s? She must want to be a whore.  
All those pop songs I do hate, but will forget them in a couple of years. As for songs I will always hate? Hmm…let me see…“Push the Little Daisy’s (and make them come up)” by I have no clue. My ex played that song a lot (at least twice a day.) It’s not that she loved the song, it’s just that Winamp’s shuffle feature seems to shuffle the same ten songs.  
I’m sure I hate other songs, but since I hate them, I try not to learn their titles.

But you see, that’s the part of the message of the song. At the end, the rappers say that you shouldn’t need to be a whore to feed your kid. Of course, then they go back to the party full of whores… So the whole message is apparently that whores are good, and there’s nothing wrong with being a whore so long as you aren’t someone the rapper knew in junior high.

Mrs. @ss and I went to a buffet restaurant the other night and they were playing that god-awful mid-70’s dreck that forced the backlash of punk and heavy metal.

“_See the tree, how big it’s grown, but friend it hasn’t been so long, it wasn’t big…_”  
But worse was to come:  
“_Julie, Julie, Julie, do ya love me…_”  
I think that was Bobby Goldsboro and Bobby Sherman, respectively.

Yes, since going to junior high with someone immediatly gives you a right to judge her lifestyle and job and all the decisions she’s made in her life.  
I just can’t figure out why anyone would enjoy that song. Teenage boys wouldn’t like it, because it’s kinda anti-men. And no self-respecting teenage with a brain cell would like it because it’s just so damned pandering. “Hello–I am a senstitive male. I am shocked at the way women are often forced to objectify their bodies in modern society. Also, did you know that by today’s standards, Marilyn Monroe would be too fat to model? Why, that makes me sick, it is just so crazy.”  
And of course, he isn’t a sensitive male at all, seeing as how he’s at a party with whores.

And I have yet to see this video on MTV or VH1, despite the fact that I have become a cable tv junkie, which leads me to believe that the song isn’t, in fact, popular at all.
