Crap songs

[Cam63]

What song/s piss you off to the point of potential homicide ?

Mine is " Macarena " and " Push the Lil' Daisies. " There is no decent excuse for their existance.

[Lex]

That "Freak Like Me" song by the Pussycat Dolls makes me want to rip the speakers out of any sterio I hear it from. Not only do I think it's a dumb song, but I don't think the Pussycat Dolls have any talent at all. This is mostly a problem for me when I car pool to work with people who listen to a station that plays that song.

*shudder* That song haunts me.

[steeler80]

"Who Let the Dogs Out?"

My wife loved that stupid song and I had to listened so much that only years of therapy can undo the damage.

[Karl J. Barnes]

"I'm Too Sexy" by that Fred guy. At first, it was kind of funny, but then it got tedious and then it got annoying. And also, "Mambo No. 5", a song that had no real meaning other to brag about the women that he had or whatever. Just a real annoying/crappy song.

[hellokittykat]

Margaritaville by Jimmy Buffet
It's not so much that it's a bad song but my coworker plays it
ALL
THE DAMN
TIME!
It makes me want to pour hot wax in my ears when I hear it come on.

[The Mirrorball Man]

I have to admit that most songs make me want to butcher lots and lots of people. I work in a radio station.

[Trey Krimsin]

I have a long list in my head, but here are some that make my pancreas want to explode, my brain to shrivel up, and my ears bleed profusely:


That Celine Dion song from Titanic
Any song by the horror that is Michael Bolton
Push The Lil' Daisies by Ween
Someday by Nickleback (pretty much anything by them actually)


That's all I can remember at the moment. I try to block out the songs I hate. When I hear them, then I start getting sick.

[Phoney Bone]

That "Mmmm-Mmmm" song by the Crash Test Dummies. God, I hate that man's voice.

[The Beast Of Yucca Flats]

That "Mmmm-Mmmm" song by the Crash Test Dummies. God, I hate that man's voice.

And did you know that that song's chorus-- when hummed on that exact frequency-- will emit a force field rendering the singer virtually indestructable?

[Bob Violence]

My dad has been pushing this CD on my kids that has little children singing patriotic classics (God Bless America, This Land is Your Land, etc.). Every time we come over, he puts it on. I think he might be trying to drive us out.

But my kids aren't going for it. When we get in the car all they want to hear is my Beatles tape. Last Christmas, I got the first four Beatles CDs and I made a tape. It's great and, being early Beatles, doesn't have too much stuff I have to explain, like "Daddy, why is happiness a warm gun?" :eek:

[jwmojo]

Chop Suey by System of a Down.

If ever there was a song that was written by a guy with a rhyming dictionary in his hand, this was it. It drives me crazy that this band, who, admittedly, has been around for a long time, catapulted to mainstream success on the back of this cheez-fest song.

[Brannon]

What song/s piss you off to the point of potential homicide ?

Mine is " Macarena " and " Push the Lil' Daisies. " There is no decent excuse for their existance.

"Macarena", I totally understand. But "Push the Lil' Daisies" is so weird and intentionally irreverent, my iconoclasm mandates that I enjoy it. Of course, the only time I've seen the video or heard the song, save once, was on an old Bevis and Butthead episode.

I could pretty much put down any song ever created by Journey, Alanis Morrisette, or post-David Lee Roth Van Halen on my list. The crap top 40 one-hit wonders are just too easy to swing at and too numerous to list.

[Phoney Bone]

Whenever I heard that song on the radio, I always pictured the guy slowly singing the Cambell's soup jingle.

"That's why Cambell's Soup is Mmmm Mmmm good."

Go ahead, try it. Tis fun.

[Arrjay]

"Who Let the Dogs Out?"

Agreed.

"Mambo No. 5"

Also agreed.

But I have to add the following:

"I will always love you"-Whitney freakin' Houston. I hate that song.

"Cry Me A River"- Justin Timberlake. Terrible. Just totally bad.

"Lifestyles Of The Rich And Famous"-Good Charlotte. There is nothing good about anything that this band does. They should change their name. Crap.

And pretty much all country music. It really annoys the crap outta me.

[Arrjay]

I forgot to mention Creed. Anything and everything by Creed makes me extremely mad and sad that music is around that sounds like that. It sucks.

[Shades0077]

I've always hated YMCA by the Village People.

I'm all for people dancing along to songs, but the required movements for that song just make people look the dumbest they could possibly look. And the thing is, everyone will do it, without fail, whenever the song comes on.

Well, everyone except for me.

[Gingold]

"God Bless the USA" by Lee Greenwood. Sweet Jesus that song makes me seriously consider expatriating.

I agree with Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You", but I love the Dolly Parton version, so I think it's Whitney not the song.

Anything by Creed.

[Bob Violence]

"God Bless the USA" by Lee Greenwood. Sweet Jesus that song makes me seriously consider expatriating.

It's worse when it's sung by a choir of little children!

[Zack]

The Skater Boy song.

God-motherfucking-DAMMIT do I hate the Skater Boy!

She rhymed "boy" with "boy" for God's sake!

And don't expect me to call it "Sk8r Boi" THAT MAKES NO SENSE. "Boi" is not an abbreviation! IT HAS THE SAME NUMBER OF LETTERS!

They actually ran a bit on Entertainment Weekly's web site where the editor of a teen poetry magazine reviewed the lyrics and declared that if it had been submitted as a poem, the magazine would have rejected it.

IN SUMMATION: It is a crappy, shitty, utterly horrible song ill-sung by an obnoxious faux-punk teenager and I hate it I hate it goddamnit I HATE IT!!!

Whew. That...that was building up for a while.

I also hate Kelly Clarkson's "Breakaway," because IT WON'T GET OUT OF MY HEAD.

Zack Smith

[Red Berens]

That one pirate song - you know, where they sing ' it's a pirates life for me' I think there's a 'Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum' song, or some nonsense like that.

[Trey Krimsin]

And did you know that that song's chorus-- when hummed on that exact frequency-- will emit a force field rendering the singer virtually indestructable?


Except when he runs into a high octave.

[Cam63]

" Achey Breaky Heart. "

There. I just summonsed the Anti-Christ.

[Cam63]

I bet you're jealous because ninjas have how many songs ?

NONE !

[Cam63]

I agree with Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You", but I love the Dolly Parton version, so I think it's Whitney not the song.

Anything by Creed.

It's right up there with Allan Jackson's " Where Were You ? "

[Cam63]

I've always hated YMCA by the Village People.

Well, everyone except for me.

It was designed for those who couldn't dance to save themselves.

[Cam63]

That "Mmmm-Mmmm" song by the Crash Test Dummies. God, I hate that man's voice.

He had one of those voices that came up from the cellar and didn't know how to use it.

For good, not evil, that is.

[sk716]

These are all excellent examples of really bad songs. I would also like to add "Oops I did it again."

Everytime I have to hear that song I want to find out what happens if I jam a Q-Tip into my ear canal!

[Cam63]

Sk, it would be better to see what would happen if you inserted a pair of week-since-they-were-washed gym socks into Britney's song hole and cover it with a roll or so of extra wide duct tape.

[Kyuubi]

She's probably eat them and ask for the recipe.

[the4thpip]

"Winner Takes it All" by ABBA makes me cringe so bad I need a shoe horn to straighten up again.

[Cam63]

An ABBA song rejected by a gay guy.

You read it here first !

Now expect lemmings to leap from the ocean, celebrities to stop acting like dicks and Australians to drink warm beer.

[Lester C.]

Whenever Beastie Boys is played, I become physically nauseous.

[Cam63]

That's a shame, 'cause Lester Carthan is a much nicer name.

[Daniel Hopkins]

Hollaback Girl, actually anything with Gwen Stefanni.

And also DEATH TO THE CRAZY FROG!!!!

[EdContradictory]

" Push the Lil' Daisies. "
I love that song and had to hunt it down for my 90s collection.


I dislike a lot of Hall and Oates.

Oh and I hate, HATE, "We Built This City on Rock and Roll."

[rismo63]

1. That "I Will Always Love You" song by Witney (sp.?) Houston
2. "Hey Yah," Outkast/Andre 3000
3. "Living la Vida Loca," Ricky Martin
4. "Dust in the Wind," Kansas
5. "Hollaback Girl," and "Harajuku Girls," Gwen Stefani

That's when you knew that Jefferson Airplane/Starship was grasping at straws and had nothing musical to say anymore.

[Karl J. Barnes]

2. "Hey Yah," Outkast/Andre 3000
3. "Living la Vida Loca," Ricky Martin
4. "Dust in the Wind," Kansas


I actually love these songs, but agree that their over-use on radio, movies and whatnot has gotten a tad out of hand.

[Converge]

She rhymed "boy" with "boy" for God's sake!

Actually, she rhymed "skater boy" with "later boy"

And don't expect me to call it "Sk8r Boi" THAT MAKES NO SENSE. "Boi" is not an abbreviation! IT HAS THE SAME NUMBER OF LETTERS!

It's not meant to be an abbreviation.

[Shades0077]

I bet you're jealous because ninjas have how many songs ?

NONE !
Even though I am fully in the pirate camp on the pirate/ninja debate, I do have to make a correction here.

Ninjas have Ninja Rap by Vanilla Ice, as sung in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze.

And I will freely admit that it is a guilty pleasure song of mine.

[Shades0077]

Whenever Beastie Boys is played, I become physically nauseous.
Hatin' on Adrock, MCA and Mike D?

You are dead to me Lester Carthan. DEAD!

[Astonishing X-Fan]

"Actually, she rhymed "skater boy" with "later boy""

Exactly. You don't always have to rhyme the last words in the lines, you know. Now I'll agree it's a pretty terrible song, but complaining "she rhymed boy and boy" is an untrue and unfair point.

Plently of rappers will rhyme like that in a verse once in a while, where the last word in each line is the same, but the words before it change and rhyme. It's a pretty common rhyme scheme.

[Lester C.]

That's a shame, 'cause Lester Carthan is a much nicer name.

I can’t tell you how much I hate my name. I always wanted a cool nickname but other than people of all ages and ethnicities singing Lester, Lester the child molester I have had one that could stick. Look at your name Cam. It just flows trippingly of the tongue while my name comes out harsh and gravely. Oh well.

[Lester C.]

I respect their bravery in promoting controversial political views despite the fact that such views have cost them endorsements, movie deals, etc. Nevertheless, I’d rather listen to someone scratch a chalkboard for sixty minutes nonstop rather than listen to a Beastie Boy album. The lead singer voice coupled with the beats has made me physical sick to point where I could hurl projectile vomit at an unsuspecting teenager with a boom box.

[Adam Crocker]

Oh and I hate, HATE, "We Built This City on Rock and Roll."

The apotheosis of 80s anti-rock. So awful and sterile it's like some dark god from the Outer Church of Grant Morrison's INVISIBLES.

Heh. You sure you don't want to tell us how you really feel, Lester?

[Lester C.]

Back before it all went bad, I was a big fan of Pantera but their Black Sabbath cover song was just atrocious.

[Oracle_0128]

Does anything by Britney Spears count?

[Lester C.]

Watching Britney or an Ashlee perform isn’t so bad if you remember to press the mute button.

[Cam63]

Look at your name Cam. It just flows trippingly of the tongue while my name comes out harsh and gravely. Oh well.

My nick is my initials, Craig Anthony Murphy.

Cam does flow nicer.

[Cam63]

I changed my avatar to Agent Smith.

He's an Aussie ( at least the actor who played him is ) and we both wear glasses.

Thank goodness. For months I thought you were a women only to find out you were a guy which, for no discernable reason, caused me to freak out a bit.

I didn't know Hugo Weaving was Australian. Are you sure?

Hollaback Girl, actually anything with Gwen Stefani.

Agreed. Everything that Gwen Stefani touched from 'Return Of Saturn' and onward has just been completely unlistenable tripe. She sucks now. It's sad.

[Cam63]

Thank goodness. For months I thought you were a women only to find out you were a guy which, for no discernable reason, caused me to freak out a bit.

I'm really gunna have to start stratching myself and belching more often.

[Cam63]

I didn't know Hugo Weaving was Australian. Are you sure?

He was born in Nigeria, apparently. He and and his family moved to England for a few years before moving permanently to Australia in the mid '70s.

Dunno what nationality that makes him.

[Karl J. Barnes]

I'm really gunna have to start stratching myself and belching more often.

Just start sticking your manhood into everything...BUT not me!

[Cam63]

I'd rather keep Bruce locked away.

[Karl J. Barnes]

I'd rather keep Bruce locked away.

What about Robin???

[Cam63]

Not that Bruce.

Think shark, mate !
