robardin, my husband has, at times, threatened me with a divorce because of my stance regarding Hendrix. Needless to say we don’t listen to a whole lot of music together.
Oh - I need to add Anything by Stone Temple Pilots to my list too.

I’ve been posting here since 2003 and never have I replied with such absolute heartfelt sincerity: I’m truly, truly sorry, Surbey.
If I were to go to Hell (and I’m not going since I’m such a heck of a nice guy!) the piped-in radio station would be set on the 'all James Blunt, all the time!" station.
Every 1000 years or so, they’d give me a break and let me switch to the all Natalie Merchant channel for a brief (but troubling) respite.
“Now whoever said this was Heaven, sir? This IS the other place! Ahahahahahaha!”
I can’t stand stupid pop songs that inexplicably become hits. If you were around in the 80’s perhaps you remember **The jump in the saddle band ** with their song The Curly Shuffle? I remember it because the intense hatred I had for that song burned a hole in my soul.
Shame on you sir, just shame on you! I had successfully blotted all memory of that song from my brain, until you had to remind me of it. Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk, nyuk, nyuk …
Heh. Anybody remember the episode of The Young Ones where the two demons Ftoomsh and Orgo were torturing a businessman in hell by forcing him to listen to Barry Manilow through some headphones? When he screamed, they’d just turn it up.
" 'e really gets off on Barry!"
And everything each of them has done since leaving the Eagles.
The Night Chicago Died.
Billy, Don’t Be a Hero.
The Entire Bobby Goldsboro catalog.
Sylvia’s Mother.
Please Come to Boston.
Wildfire.
The collected works of Boston, Styx, Foreigner & Journey
All of Chicago’s music since 1979
We Built This City on Rock n’ Roll
Everything the Bee Gees wrote for Dolly Parton, Dionne Warwick, Kenny Roberts, Barbara Streisand, or anyone else in the late 70’s-very early 80’s.
Ain’t Nothin’ Gonna Break My Stride.
If You Like Pina Coladas
Feelings
The Kevin Federline Album
A lot of previously-mentioned “hell” songs are on my iTunes “favorites” playlist.
My hell list would include (but not be limited to):
Old Time Rock & Roll by Bob Seger, or pretty much anything else by Bob Seger, but especially OTR&R
God Bless the USA by Lee Greenwood
I guess the only thing I would say is anything with bagpipes.
Just to show there’s an audience for everything: I like bagpipes.
That is, I like Scottish and Irish pipes. The Bretons have a tiny shrill bagpipe called the biniou which is surely on Hell’s Top 40. If you’ve never heard it, be thankful.
As for pop music in hell: Am I really the first to name “Sometimes When We Touch”?
Michael Bolton’s cover of “When a Man Loves a Woman” and Macca & Wonder’s “Ebony & Ivory,” in MP3 quality, replayed endlessly.
Billy, Don’t Be a Hero.
Wildfire.

Hate. :mad:
Hate. :mad:
When it was overplayed I hated it, now it’s kind of nostalgic, so it’s OK.
Hate. :mad:
teela brown: no, I can’t even remember even hearing of that show.
Hendrix?
Nirvana?
Guns N’ Roses?
The Eagles?
What the hell are you people on? :dubious:
Guns N’ Roses and Nirvana would probably be on my top 10 rock bands of all time…maybe not the Eagles. Hendrix Experience doesn’t count as a band though.
Anyway, any rap or hiphop. Not just mainstream, or recent, but ALL OF IT. I despise the entire genre. And most Rammstein songs, if not just because they are all basically the same song over and over.
And Freya, if not just because of my Guitar Hero troubles with it…
As I sink lower and lower in the different levels of Hell
The same playlist is playing on each one
All Bee Gees / Gibb Brothers - All The Time
Stayin’ Alive
Jive Talkin’
Massachusetts
I’m shuddering just thinking about it
The Kevin Federline Album
Theres only one?!
I have several songs on my “Hell’s soundtrack” list for which I cannot remember the artists. These include, but are not limited to:
My Neck, My Back
The Little Girl
Millie the Elephant
He Hit Me (and it felt like a kiss)
*Rockabye *- the words “everything’s gonna be all right”, repeatedly interspersed with the tale of a girl fallen into debauchery in Hollywood
I’m With the DJ - a mostly spoken-word track which consists of some girl trying to talk her way into a club by convincing the door guy that she’s the DJ’s groupie du jour
I Got A Man
The ones I can actually blame somebody for include:
Dr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive by Men At Work
Volcano by The Band
Anything by Insane Clown Posse
They Don’t Care About Us by Michael Jackson
The vast majority of what’s made by modern Country “music” “artists”. Ditto the entirety of the output of Gospel “music” “artists”. The lowest depth of Hell would be reserved for “The Boot-Scootin’ Boogie” on infinite repeat on a CD player that skips and locks up on a single half-second segment at random.
Van Halen, I didn’t like them before college, and it only took a semester of my Van Halen obsessed roommate to make all their songs the 10th ring of hell.
Runners up:
*Macarana
Who Let The Dogs Out? *
Rap/dance club music combo, interspersed with “Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer” and “Achy-Breaky Heart.”
Gotta weigh in and say that I really like some of the songs mentioned here.
But on Hell’s Platinum Playlist
Gospel music. Just makes my skin want to crawl off my body. Even more repetitious than C&W.
Swangin, by the Freestyle Kingz
Achy Breaky Heart
Macarena
Go ahead and throw in all of C&W. Yeah, I know there are some good ones, it’s just not worth finding them.
Anything that has a guitar player draging their fingers on the strings. That’s my fingernails-on-a-chalkboard sound.
And a few other songs that I know I despise, but I’ve repressed them enough that I can’t remember them until they actually come on the radio.
I just thought of two more:
Young American- David Bowie
Ballroom Blitz- Sweet
So many good answers so far! Here’s a couple not mentioned yet:
That’s What Friends Are For written by Burt Bachrach
I Just Called To Say I Love You by Stevie Wonder
