Songs that you absotively can not stand
Gwen Stefani - Hollaback Girl
Stone Sour - Through Glass
Every time I hear one of those, I want to swerve off the road into a tree, just to make it end. Then I turn the radio off .

I regard hip-hop as imbecilic and damaging to society. I also loathe any music marketed either to people in diapers or to pre-teen girls; so far as I am concerned, those two groups are equivalent. A large portion of country/western music leaves me with disappointment in Western/American society. If I ever heard a hip-hop and western medley, fit for pre-teen girls, I would either kill myself or tear a large and bloody swath through the world.

Insulated as I am from the larger part of popular musical culture, my "can't stand" songs are from a much earlier era. The offerings of Terrence Trent D'arby (sp?) give me the screaming mimi's in short order, as do any sort of boy band, and although I *could* compile a more complete list, I sincerely doubt that anyone is interested enough to read it.
73% of all statistics are made up, including this one.

As a general rule, I have always hated whatever kind of music they like to play in fashion clothing stores that cater to teenagers. That particular type of music changes over the decades, from the 80s to the 90s to the noughties, but whatever it is at any given time, I find that I consistently hate it. I hated it even when I was a teenager myself.

Very popular "pop" music.
Rap.
"The Spice girls". (As a kid whenever they played I pushed my fingers into my ears and tried to get out of the room)

They only really have one song, they just call it something different every time the put it on an album. Lots of people with little or no taste in music around me fucking love them though so I often have to endure them when music gets selected. Plus alot of other shit, but I don't have to hear most of that very often so I don't really care.
Edit: I, as a teenager, second Wong's clothes store music hatred. It's part of the reason I hate going clothing shopping so much.

That wasn't sugar-coating it; that was stating my absolute hatred and loathing in "civilized" terms. *sardonic grin* Letting loose, were I any good at this sort of thing, would cause gouts of flame to shoot from your keyboard and those of everybody who read that post. I'd rather not have to deal with the liability involved.SCRawl wrote:Don't sugar-coat it, bob, feel free to let loose.darthbob88 wrote:I regard hip-hop as imbecilic and damaging to society.

That "my lumps" song. I can stand most other music from that genre, as I have a precious ability to tune it out. But that song just grates at me. That and people feel the need to play it at virtually every party.

It's called "My Humps" and it's by the Black Eyed Peas.
It's a song above no other that I wish I had never heard. Here's what SA's David Thorpe had to say about it last year:
It's a song above no other that I wish I had never heard. Here's what SA's David Thorpe had to say about it last year:
Stupidest Song of the Year
The Black Eyed Peas – My Humps
Ordinarily, this category would be nigh unto impossible to judge. One could argue it a hundred ways: does the song with the stupidest lyrics win, or the song with the stupidest musical content? Shall I give it to the song enjoyed by the stupidest people, or to the song written by the stupidest person? And anyway, “stupid” is subjective, so one person’s opinion of stupidity may be another person’s idea of biting satire. So, for all these reasons, I would never dare attempt a “Stupidest Song” category. Ordinarily.
You can go ahead and throw all that shit out the window this year, because the Black Eyed Peas have crafted what is without a doubt the dumbest, most obnoxious song ever to disgrace the airwaves. Previously, we knew the Black Eyed Peas as a formerly socially-conscious rap outfit which mutated into an ignominious, money-hungry cross-cultural minstrel show that shucked and jived its way into the mainstream with its retarded songs about getting retarded. Little did we know how retarded the Peas were capable of getting: “My Humps” is a profoundly retarded product from what has become a terminally retarded band.
The track concerns the humps of Fergie, their garish backup singer. For all the bragging she does about the loveliness of her lady-lumps, she still looks like a washed-up former porn star who took one too many massive insertions into her annals of history (eew, don’t get any ideas, I’m just saying she looks old). Over the course of what seems like about fifteen minutes, Fergie and her reprehensible sellout cohorts expound the virtues of her leathery lizard-flesh to such a maddening degree that the listener will vow never to look at another woman again.
I won’t bother reprinting any sample lyrics here. If you’ve heard the song, you don’t need reminding, and if you haven’t heard it, you wouldn’t believe that I wasn’t making them up. If you did manage to suspend your disbelief, you’d quickly come to the conclusion that the song must be a joke. In fact, while the song certainly isn’t serious, it’s far from a joke. It’s the worst kind of false-humor; it’s a jokey song written by people with no concept of irony and intended for consumption both by people who will take it at face value and by people who will smirk at it. It’s like one of those terrible bargain-bin straight-to-video horror flicks about a killer urinal: it can never be the “cult classic” that the cynical halfwit filmmakers intend it to be because it’s in on its own joke. Something can’t be “so-bad-it’s-good” if it tries really hard to be “so-bad-it’s-good.” Instead, it’s merely false, artless, pathetic, and loved by idiots.
Here’s a little science experiment: go park your car next to the transmitter tower of your local pop radio station. If “My Humps” isn’t already being played, wait about fifteen minutes. When “My Humps” comes on, look at the tower. You’ll notice that the transmitter will be emitting comical green “stink lines.” I swear to god, it’s true.
Fuck, I’m tired of writing about this song.

I find myself agreeing with Darth Wong, thinking about it. Whenever I walk by a store such as Hot Topic, Aeropostal, &c., I find myself disgusted by the music often blasting out of the doors. And I have very little doubt that what is being played in those places is just as bad as what was being played in equivalent stores years ago.

Whats that damn song by Keisha Cole that goes "IIIII NEEEVER KNNNEW I LOVE YOU..." or something. I heard that song on the radio and i want to kill whoever was next to me. Then there is this song called "Me time" by some chick named Heather Headley. She sings it like "I want some me time..I want to run with my girls at the mall and at the club." Evertime i hear that song i want to rip out my audio cortex and burn it.
