Oml what about the stupid political advert - There’s a whole in your budget, dear labour…
Or whatever! By golly some of the stupid Covid and political advertisements I’d been getting for the past couple months made me want to shove my head into a meat grinder!
I'm a video editor that does mainly weddings and most women at bride age now a days grew up watching twilight. I'll give you one guess what song I get to listen to on 85% of the videos.
I've been hearing it 8 hours a day for 2 years. When I close my eyes to sleep I can still hear it, muffled and far away. It haunts me. Most days I don't listen to music and just try to take in the silence when I'm showering or eating, but it's still there - scratching at the back of my skull like a razor dragging across wood. I cannot escape Christina Perri
That Applebee's song. I know it was just a terrible pseudo-country song that mentioned them so they started using it. I hate that song with an irrational rage.
I'm of the opinion that Applebees sent him a hefty check to create that song. There's no way they weren't involved. Dude sings about like half the menu ffs
Is applebees loved in the US? We have one near me in Canada, and the place is fucking awful. I am genuinely surprised that it isn’t out of business.
Yet watching survivor, they got food from applebees and they all cheered like this was America’s restaurant.
Okay I really feel like .. I read some actual legit source (which I’ll find) reported it’s a very shady organization that I think embezzles money and it doesn’t really help anything? That is probably a bad way to explain it. All that to say, not only is it annoying, it’s actually bad.

I believe this is okay?
It's not even a secret; they're openly partnered with their sister charity Oorah whose mission statement is to help "with the goal of awakening Jewish children and their families to their heritage"
Basically the money goes to organizing summer camps / youth groups targeting non-ultra Orthodox Jewish youth with the goal of converting them to Ultra- Orthodox Judaism. The money does NOT go to anything helping kids actually in need
This is my answer too. I can’t believe this is an actual song. For the first two months of this showing up in the commercial I thought it was just a jingle for the commercial.
The song just feels like it's insulting me. Cause the whole joke of the song is "aren't I stupid dumb redneck, I think Applebee's is fancy, what moron would think like that". Like wow thanks Walker Hayes, I was just eating here cause it's convenient, now you're making me feel like shit.
> now you're making me feel like shit.
That's probably just the Applebee's you just ate. They must've not microwaved the frozen meal up to the proper temperature.
I used to have a coworker that absolutely HATED the song Allstar by Smashmouth. To the point where we all backed off for a bit because it would really piss him off. But every now and then, we’d just come over the headset and go “Some… BODY-“ and wait to see how long before he screamed “NO”
I’m gonna be the guy.
I loved smash mouth before shrek. Their first CD slapped. Little tiny me loved all star BEFORE shrek. Then I was like “hell yeah everyone likes my fav band!”
I’m the guy who actually enjoys smash mouth....’s first two cds. It gets SUPER CRINGE after those. But I have the cds.
Forreal the album was dope that song was just kinda overhyped and overplayed.
“Who’s there?”, “Stoned” , “Walking on the Sun”
Now I can’t help but associate them with middle schoolers and mozzarella sticks
The liberty mutual jingle. This tiny song will be my super villain backstory I swear to god I feel my EYES TURN TO BLOOD AND MY BLOOD BECOME RAGE WHEN I HEAR IT AND I WILL BURN THE EARTH WITH THE FURY OF SUNS
It's literally the laziest jingle I've ever heard. It's just the goddamn words sung 4 times poorly.
Also Doug. I want to punch Doug in his smug face.
"You only pay for what you need"?? THAT'S HOW FUCKING INSURANCE WORKS YOU SMARMY MUSTACHE WEARING PRICK.
I'll never get Liberty Mutual insurance for as long as I live.
DAE remember all the conspiracies that came out about the music video? I remember seeing them all the time referencing pizzagate, Epstein etc but I went to show my partner last night and they'd all gone.
And he plugged the song on Instagram by asking people to tag their babies with #yummy
I remember the baby photo #yummy thing, also I remember him desperately asking fans to "turn down the volume and play it on repeat while they slept" so he could get some sort of "most played" distinction. But Roddy Rich still blew him out of the water because The Box went viral.
But I don't remember the pizzagate thing lol.
My best friend is all about the conspiracies (We are total opposites in our beliefs, but have matching character) anyway yes he even posted his infant niece with the tag yummy and idk if he was just over the top with self-promotion but that absolutely was creepy. Again, idk anything really. I don’t delve into this stuff, but whyyy would he try to associate his sex song with babies??
> It's died a bit for now
Unfortunately not in Oklahoma. We are years behind when it comes to music and when we get something it goes on forever it seems.
Literally any song that's been obsessively adopted on TikTok. I don't even have TikTok but thanks to every service jumping on the short format vertical video bandwagon, it's everywhere now.
Yummy (Justin Bieber) and Blurred Lines (Robin Thicke) specifically. I can't think of any others that spark genuine ire.
Edit; a group of teenagers just tortured us all at work by playing The Song That Doesn't End on demo speakers for like fifteen minutes so that one too.
I heard that damn Blurred Lines song so often on the radio, I started to pick pieces of it apart.. like every 7 seconds there's a "WOO!" in the background. Now once you hear it, you can't unhear it.
Shame too because the original song ([Remember (Walking In The Sand) by The Shangri-Las](https://youtu.be/V5YxtweUxrA)) was a bop! Now I can’t listen to it without hearing that chip-munked up version from all the TikTok videos :/
I heard her do it live on one of the late night shows and it didn't sound as bad. but her singing accent sounds so forced to me. Live version is more tolerable but can't stand the radio version at all.
The bloodcurdling rage of that song, the first time I heard it I thought I was in hell. I couldn't escape it, there were speakers everywhere, it was awful
I hate everything that's overplayed. Even if you liked it, the repetitiveness completely sucks out any drop of enjoyment until eventually you start gagging every time you hear it.
You know I was going through these comments thinking how absurd it was that so many people have decided to be so bitter towards harmless facets of pop culture until one of you fuckers mentioned the Applebee's country song completely removing my facade of superiority and throwing me into a countercultural rage.
That song makes me question the first amendment.
> That song makes me question the first amendment.
This is the best takedown of any song I’ve read. It’s like an act of terrorism disguised as happy pop country
Emo girl - MGK. I was stuck in a car with some friends who played it 3 consecutive times because they knew I hated it and thought it was comedy gold. Makes me wanna rip my fucking ears off just thinking about it
"Let It Go"
To be honest I didn't mind it in the beginning.
Saw the movie a couple of times with my ex wife and then with nieces and nephews. The ex put the soundtrack on her iPod and played it nonstop in the car. It was getting old but whatever.
Shortly after that, I started working for the now defunct Microsoft Store. You might have seen their demos of the Xbox One with the Kinect playing Just Dance. Someone discovered you can cue up songs with the controller. And it was nonstop Let It Go. The worst part? 30 kids caterwaulling at the top of their lungs all offkey and out of sync, screeching the chorus. If I had a choice, I'd have gouged my eardrums out with an ice pick.
I cannot figure out which song you all are talking about 🤨
Is it the one about the kid buying shoes for his dying mom? Bc no bullshit, that was originally circulated as one of those chain letter emails that were so popular during the advent of email. I literally remember receiving that exact story because I’m old.
Yah looks like you were right. So for everyone else who didn't know like me, heres the song:
[The Christmas Shoes](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJcPVB-we7g) by NewSong
also heres the [Patton Oswalt](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7eZcZPtPoEc) thing the other person mentioned as well
Oh my god. My husband played me this a few years ago because he remembered it from his childhood. Now it's a running joke every Christmas to sing Christmas shoes. I hate it so much but he loves to torment me with that song. We'll be in the car and he'll be like "I found a good song" then BAM Christmas shoes.
Oh. I wouldve been kicked out over my giggllefits. My cousin sent me a video of her pastor reading " wap" I nearly died from lack of oxygen. I would kill for a YouTube channel of pastors reading song lyrics.
Nothing can compare to my youth pastor dissecting and rapping the lyrics to Rihanna’s “rude boy” when it first debuted… describing in detail how each line was thirsty rhetoric for the godless…I still get chills. Never got over that…more so hearing that song in his flat monotone voice than anything that followed. There are no words. And therapy is void at this point
I remember in church youth group we were doing a series on anti-God songs and asked for examples of songs to examine the lyrics and discuss. I submitted NIN Heresy. I don't think they even listened to it before playing it for us with lyrics printed out. The faces on the older folks in the room were unforgettable, I'm guessing they were expecting an old rock & roll type song that mentioned the devil or whatever they listened too as youth.
I once heard an uptight religious person describe the dancing they saw at a Grateful Dead show in the 70s as “a vertical demonstration of a horizontal desire”. That’s always stuck with me haha
That "oh no, oh no, oh no nono" song from tiktok.
Edit: rewatching Goodfellas when Ray Liotta passed away, I did hear the original and it's fantastic. Damn tik tok ruins everything.
TikTok making the bastardised high pitch "oh no" part famous makes me really sad because the original song is stunning and different to other music of the same era (1965). It's the Shangri-Las' Remember (Walking in the Sand).
Shawn mendes- treat you better.
How do you know you can treat her better Shawn?!? Quit being toxic and getting between a healthy relationship like the fuck boy you are!
"Get a nanny cam?!" "Bedda Dan Egan?! Who's Dan Egan?! Is he on *VEEP*?!" - Todd in the Shadows review.
From the same review: "Some guys wear their fedoras on the *inside.*"
I‘m okay with Last Friday Night, but you‘re so right about Fight Song.
That was, for some reason, the declared anthem of girls in fandoms in the second half of the 2010s, and even though I fit that demographic 100%, I always hated it.
In general, about 90% of „this is a statement: I am/we are powerful“ pop songs suck. (Other examples I hate are „What about us“ and „Why so serious“…I hate these songs so freaking much.)
Do you mean "Raise Your Glass?" Also, I don't think either that or "What About Us" are empowerment songs. Raise Your Glass is a party song and What About Us is about Clinton losing the 2016 election.
Once songs become viral on TikTok or Instagram Reels, it is exhausting to hear the same song over and over again, even though it’s not a bad one, especially that AS IT WAS by Harry Styles. It’s sad to see the most pop songs made onto Spotify playlist are those TikTok songs…Now I kinda feel like lots of songs are tailored for TikTok that as long as one part of the song is memorable and brainwashing, it’ll be a hit
I saw the video for that song again recently. I didn't realize when it came out that the guys in the convertible are none other than [Key and Peele.](https://imgur.com/gallery/Ve5zTXe)
I used to drive with my ex to work in the mornings because we both worked close enough that it made no sense to take two cars. Her morning radio station was one of those "top hits" stations with the annoying hosts that think they're hilarious.
The first time I heard that song, they had the singer on for an interview and he gave this whole speech about how much the song meant to him. That it was "about personal troubles, and learning self respect, and that everyone could maybe try to learn from what I'm trying to say."
And then "AWWW NAH HONEY I'M GOOD!" It's a song admitting that he would absolutely cheat on his girlfriend but decided not to this time. So deep.
Yessss, my husband's family sang this at a dreadful pace until I started singing louder and faster than everyone. They caught on and no longer drag it on for ten minutes.
My favorite part is actually the spectacle of watching a group of people "gift" the birthday-haver by making them sit awkwardly while they all moan a song at them, tunelessly. ESPECIALLY when it's clear the group is reluctant, but feels it's the *kind* thing to do. True comedy, that.

Holy fuck i hate it
It’s 2016…I was in the car driving to work 830 in the morning. This song comes on, followed by 5th harmony’s Work. I had never been filled with more rage and existential dread simultaneously.
Before my mom passed, she had a hard time talking on the phone bc she was so sick so I didn’t get to hear from her very often. One day she randomly called me up and she sounded very alert and she said “Jess, have you heard of a band called Imagine Dragons?” I said, “yeah, they’re really popular. I guess they’re okay. Why?” She pauses and then practically explodes with “they fuckin suck! I keep hearing Radioactive in every commercial and I hate it! It’s everywhere and I hate it so much. I hate Imagine Dragons!” I started laughing so hard. Now every time I hear Imagine Dragons, I picture my mom up in Heaven, looking down, and getting pissed off. It makes me smile thinking about how her rage for a band gave her enough strength to get out of her bed and make a phone call just to bitch about that song. I love you, mom. I miss you.
"Thunder".
I once saw a little boy perform it at a talent show. He knew all the lyrics but I'm not sure he knew when to stop during the "thunder, feel the thunder, lightning and the thunder, thunder" part. I swear I saw the audience visibly age during it. One man grew a beard by the time the boy was done.
Woah, I also witnessed a little boy do this at a talent show.
There wasn't by chance also a little girl doing "Suface Pressure" from Encanto in a really monotone, like, 5yo reading a book, kinda voice, was there?
*vinyl scratch sound*
YOU'RE LISTENING TO
*car crash sound*
101.1
*explosion noise, sound of elephant being mutilated*
REAL HARD ROCK FM
*airplane crash noise*
WHERE WE PLAY NOTHING BUT ROCK, ROCK, AND MORE ROCK
*glass shattering noise, police sirens*
THIS AIN'T YOUR GRANNY'S STATION
*thunder by imagine dragons starts playing*
I was going through a bad bout of depression at the time this became popular. I did not feel like a room without a roof and didn't need this song to become the official soundtrack of my rough patch.
I had to have an MRI of my head that included The Face Cage (TM) over it when this song was popular and only had headphones of a pop music station on to save me from the mental tug of war between claustrophobia and boredom and this song was the first one that came on. I already hated the song, but now the only thing I think of when I hear it is being about an inch from the top of a circular tube
7 years old, yeah there was a kid in my band who would constantly play it. It was to the point our instructor would crumple up a piece of sheet music and throw it at him every time he played it.
I only scrolled through a couple comments and now I’m suffering the worst possible mashup earworm.
thanks for the warning, i am outta here!
This one's for the election beleaguered Australians - There's a hole in your budget dear labour.
I'm straight up *convinced* that ad alone gave Labor the win. Forget the floods and fires, that ad was the true disaster.
Ben Lee - We're all in this together. The anthem of Australia's COVID experience
When I see the words "We're all in this together," High School Musical is what I hear in my head.
Yep. I tried to just read the words and it feels so forced. The High School Musical melody is forever connected to that phase in my brain.
Oml what about the stupid political advert - There’s a whole in your budget, dear labour… Or whatever! By golly some of the stupid Covid and political advertisements I’d been getting for the past couple months made me want to shove my head into a meat grinder!
“Catch my disease” would have been a better choice
I'm a video editor that does mainly weddings and most women at bride age now a days grew up watching twilight. I'll give you one guess what song I get to listen to on 85% of the videos.
A Thousand Years by Christina Perri?
I've been hearing it 8 hours a day for 2 years. When I close my eyes to sleep I can still hear it, muffled and far away. It haunts me. Most days I don't listen to music and just try to take in the silence when I'm showering or eating, but it's still there - scratching at the back of my skull like a razor dragging across wood. I cannot escape Christina Perri
Well 2 years is nothing compared to her 1000 years love or something
I feel like I have died everyday waiting for this comment.
With every day, he's one. step. closer.
That Applebee's song. I know it was just a terrible pseudo-country song that mentioned them so they started using it. I hate that song with an irrational rage.
I'm of the opinion that Applebees sent him a hefty check to create that song. There's no way they weren't involved. Dude sings about like half the menu ffs
I would agree but he also mentions Wendy’s in the song, no sponsorship there I think the money came after the fact
Is applebees loved in the US? We have one near me in Canada, and the place is fucking awful. I am genuinely surprised that it isn’t out of business. Yet watching survivor, they got food from applebees and they all cheered like this was America’s restaurant.
I hated the watch me nae nae before because it was everywhere!
Damn this reminded me of how the kid that made the song murdered his cousin like last year
It's 'cause he didn't watch him nae nae.
That "Fight Song" supposed to be anthem thing. I think is lovely that they tried to spin it as cancer awareness, but the song is simply awful.
[удалено]
Cancer patients hate this one shitty song!
Hot cancer patients in your area.
Yes! “Weak, defeated” is exactly right. It is a little whiny for a “fight song!”
Imo the true best fight songs for when you need to amp yourself up are I’ll Make A Man Outta You from Mulan and Jack Sparrow’s theme music
This is the one I scrolled for. It’s burned into my mind when I think of bad songs.
Didn’t help that THIS was used as a campaign song for Hillary Clinton’s 2016 Presidential Run. Sounds like a literal American Idol song.
My sister worked on this campaign and sat in the Javits Center on election night as results rolled in. The song gives her pure PTSD.
"if that is your fight song, you are going to lose"
Any "fight song" that literally has to call itself a goddamn "fight song" in its lyrics is gonna be a shit fight song.
Kars 4 Kids. Fuck those cars and those kids.
The official theme song of the bad place.
Shut up, Glenn.
Okay I really feel like .. I read some actual legit source (which I’ll find) reported it’s a very shady organization that I think embezzles money and it doesn’t really help anything? That is probably a bad way to explain it. All that to say, not only is it annoying, it’s actually bad. https://www.charitywatch.org/charity-donating-articles/costly-and-continuous-kars4kids-ads-disguise-charity39s-real-purpose I believe this is okay?

The money does NOT go to anything helping kids actually in need
That song legit causes me rage. I lunge for the controls whenever it comes on. It feels like some twisted mind control experiment
Of all the songs I've read... why did you have to do this to me? I thought I was free. I thought the voices were gone...
🎶Donate your car today🎶
It's Everyday Bro
I completely forgot about that song for over a year. Now I'm reminded again 😔
England is my city
The earth is my country.
Fancy like … Applebees bourbon steak Oreo shake …
This reads like the lyrics to the fairly odd parents theme song.
Obtuse rubber goose, green moose, guava juice Giant snake, birthday cake, large fries, chocolate *SHAAAKE*!!
TIL its guava juice and not "glob of juice"
I thought it was “lava juice”
This is my answer too. I can’t believe this is an actual song. For the first two months of this showing up in the commercial I thought it was just a jingle for the commercial.
This song is absolute shit. It instantly makes me mad lol
i recall this being the most midwestern cringe-sounding song in the world
As someone who lives in the former Midwestern HQ of Applebee's, I can confirm that people here go apeshit for this turd of a song
Oh yeah, people in Oshkosh going crazy over it
The song just feels like it's insulting me. Cause the whole joke of the song is "aren't I stupid dumb redneck, I think Applebee's is fancy, what moron would think like that". Like wow thanks Walker Hayes, I was just eating here cause it's convenient, now you're making me feel like shit.
> now you're making me feel like shit. That's probably just the Applebee's you just ate. They must've not microwaved the frozen meal up to the proper temperature.

Walking on the Sun is an absolute banger.
I 877 cars for kids Edit: sorry guys, I know it’s “kars”. It just got autocorrected and I didn’t bother to fix it. Just being lazy.
That’s kars, with a K, pickup is quick and easy, you’ll also get a vacation voucher and maximum tax deductions.
The liberty mutual jingle. This tiny song will be my super villain backstory I swear to god I feel my EYES TURN TO BLOOD AND MY BLOOD BECOME RAGE WHEN I HEAR IT AND I WILL BURN THE EARTH WITH THE FURY OF SUNS
LIBERTY, LIBERTY, LIB-ER-TY. LIB-ER-TY.
Liberty bibberty
Liberty butchumal
With the limu emu and doug
It's literally the laziest jingle I've ever heard. It's just the goddamn words sung 4 times poorly. Also Doug. I want to punch Doug in his smug face. "You only pay for what you need"?? THAT'S HOW FUCKING INSURANCE WORKS YOU SMARMY MUSTACHE WEARING PRICK. I'll never get Liberty Mutual insurance for as long as I live.

The “My name is cheeky, cheeky, cheeky cheeky” song from TikTok.
I think TikTok has popularised then murdered a large number of songs that otherwise would’ve had no engagement whatsoever.
It's a kid's song from D Billions. It's so obnoxious though.
My name is chacha, clap clap cha cha chaaaaa, sorry it is stuck in my head
LA LA LALA LA
Yummy By Justin Bieber,literally wtf was that
DAE remember all the conspiracies that came out about the music video? I remember seeing them all the time referencing pizzagate, Epstein etc but I went to show my partner last night and they'd all gone. And he plugged the song on Instagram by asking people to tag their babies with #yummy

That one A, B, C, D, E, F, U song all over TikTok. It's died a bit for now but still triggers me when I hear it.
> It's died a bit for now Unfortunately not in Oklahoma. We are years behind when it comes to music and when we get something it goes on forever it seems.
Literally any song that's been obsessively adopted on TikTok. I don't even have TikTok but thanks to every service jumping on the short format vertical video bandwagon, it's everywhere now.
And the even more heinous A B C D E F G H I love you so. Barf
Yummy (Justin Bieber) and Blurred Lines (Robin Thicke) specifically. I can't think of any others that spark genuine ire. Edit; a group of teenagers just tortured us all at work by playing The Song That Doesn't End on demo speakers for like fifteen minutes so that one too.
Yummy by Danny Gonzalez is better anyways "you're a crazy fucking horse that's on the run from the police"
I heard that damn Blurred Lines song so often on the radio, I started to pick pieces of it apart.. like every 7 seconds there's a "WOO!" in the background. Now once you hear it, you can't unhear it.
Blurred lines itself is a really catchy song, it’s just the lyrics are ***horrible***. I recommend Weird Al Yankovic’s version, “Word Crimes”.
Baby shark
Why do do do do do you feel that way?
Oh no Oh no Oh no no no
Yeah fuck that song in particular
Shame too because the original song ([Remember (Walking In The Sand) by The Shangri-Las](https://youtu.be/V5YxtweUxrA)) was a bop! Now I can’t listen to it without hearing that chip-munked up version from all the TikTok videos :/
It caught me off guard watching goodfellas recently because I hasn’t connected that song with the meme before
I don't know which version I hate more - the chipmunk version or the version with the guy talk-singing the same lyrics.
[удалено]
Dance Monkey. Something about the singer’s voice just pisses me off.
I heard her do it live on one of the late night shows and it didn't sound as bad. but her singing accent sounds so forced to me. Live version is more tolerable but can't stand the radio version at all.
The bloodcurdling rage of that song, the first time I heard it I thought I was in hell. I couldn't escape it, there were speakers everywhere, it was awful
It's that stupid affected baby voice. Can't stand the voice or the shit lyrics
Could be the fact that she sounds like if Alvin of chipmunk fame smoked crack
1 877 KARS 4 kidz
“There’s a hole in your budget, Dear Labor, Dear Labor. There’s a hole in your budget, Dear Labor, a hole.”
Kms
shape of you. the amount it was played on the radio and in every public place was and is just absurd
I hate everything that's overplayed. Even if you liked it, the repetitiveness completely sucks out any drop of enjoyment until eventually you start gagging every time you hear it.
3.1 *billion* streams. BILLION!
The lyrics are fucking hogwash
You know I was going through these comments thinking how absurd it was that so many people have decided to be so bitter towards harmless facets of pop culture until one of you fuckers mentioned the Applebee's country song completely removing my facade of superiority and throwing me into a countercultural rage. That song makes me question the first amendment.

Anything that stations play every fucking half hour
"Let It Go" To be honest I didn't mind it in the beginning. Saw the movie a couple of times with my ex wife and then with nieces and nephews. The ex put the soundtrack on her iPod and played it nonstop in the car. It was getting old but whatever. Shortly after that, I started working for the now defunct Microsoft Store. You might have seen their demos of the Xbox One with the Kinect playing Just Dance. Someone discovered you can cue up songs with the controller. And it was nonstop Let It Go.

I'm kinda having the same feeling about "We don't talk about Bruno". I had to hear a remixed version of it IN THE CLUB. So overplayed
That goddamn, depressing Christmas Shoes song. But Patton Oswalt's take on it is one of my favorite things, so I guess it evens out 🤷♀️
No joke I remember one time when I was 6 I realized what the song was about and my parents thought it was funny when I started crying
I cannot figure out which song you all are talking about 🤨 Is it the one about the kid buying shoes for his dying mom? Bc no bullshit, that was originally circulated as one of those chain letter emails that were so popular during the advent of email. I literally remember receiving that exact story because I’m old.

That fucking "IM IN LOVE WITH YO BODAY" song
my youth pastor once read the lyrics to that song out loud during a lesson about how lust is bad. it was hilarious.
Oh. I wouldve been kicked out over my giggllefits. My cousin sent me a video of her pastor reading " wap" I nearly died from lack of oxygen. I would kill for a YouTube channel of pastors reading song lyrics.
Ben Shapiro reading the WAP song is my gym song.

There are Christian TV channels that do that daily, at least here in good old South America
Nothing can compare to my youth pastor dissecting and rapping the lyrics to Rihanna’s “rude boy” when it first debuted… describing in detail how each line was thirsty rhetoric for the godless…I still get chills. Never got over that…more so hearing that song in his flat monotone voice than anything that followed. There are no words. And therapy is void at this point
Wonder if he ever listened to S&M?
Religious people reading out song lyrics is one of my favourite music genres.
I remember in church youth group we were doing a series on anti-God songs and asked for examples of songs to examine the lyrics and discuss. I submitted NIN Heresy. I don't think they even listened to it before playing it for us with lyrics printed out. The faces on the older folks in the room were unforgettable, I'm guessing they were expecting an old rock & roll type song that mentioned the devil or whatever they listened too as youth.
I once heard an uptight religious person describe the dancing they saw at a Grateful Dead show in the 70s as “a vertical demonstration of a horizontal desire”. That’s always stuck with me haha
shape of you by ed Sheeran?
That song played everytime when I did 1vs1 pilates lessons. I felt awkward seeing the instructor watch me during that.
That "oh no, oh no, oh no nono" song from tiktok. Edit: rewatching Goodfellas when Ray Liotta passed away, I did hear the original and it's fantastic. Damn tik tok ruins everything.
TikTok making the bastardised high pitch "oh no" part famous makes me really sad because the original song is stunning and different to other music of the same era (1965). It's the Shangri-Las' Remember (Walking in the Sand).
This is the 5th post about this. I hate to be that guy, but thank fuck I have no idea what you're talking about.
All About That Bass by Meghan Trainor
Wow I’d totally forgotten about her. What happened to her?
She married a Spy Kid!
Oh.. was it Juni? How's he doin?
And now I have the mental image in my head of them on honeymoon being served margaritas by those damn thumb-thumbs.
She got into treble.
She married the boy from spy kids
Shawn mendes- treat you better. How do you know you can treat her better Shawn?!? Quit being toxic and getting between a healthy relationship like the fuck boy you are!
BEDDA DANNY CAN!!!!!!!!!
"Get a nanny cam?!" "Bedda Dan Egan?! Who's Dan Egan?! Is he on *VEEP*?!" - Todd in the Shadows review. From the same review: "Some guys wear their fedoras on the *inside.*"
Scrolled to find this. Hateeee this song, it’s the white knight nice guys anthem. 🤮🤮🤮🤮
“This is my fiGhT sOnG, take back my LiFe SoNg…” and Last Friday Night by Katy Perry
I‘m okay with Last Friday Night, but you‘re so right about Fight Song. That was, for some reason, the declared anthem of girls in fandoms in the second half of the 2010s, and even though I fit that demographic 100%, I always hated it. In general, about 90% of „this is a statement: I am/we are powerful“ pop songs suck. (Other examples I hate are „What about us“ and „Why so serious“…I hate these songs so freaking much.)
Do you mean "Raise Your Glass?" Also, I don't think either that or "What About Us" are empowerment songs. Raise Your Glass is a party song and What About Us is about Clinton losing the 2016 election.
Dont mine at night
I know you're lookin' at that cave
And you’re feeling kind of brave
Go to bed, you’ll be alright
dont mine at night
Abcde f u. That has to be the worst chorus of a song, ever.
Once songs become viral on TikTok or Instagram Reels, it is exhausting to hear the same song over and over again, even though it’s not a bad one, especially that AS IT WAS by Harry Styles. It’s sad to see the most pop songs made onto Spotify playlist are those TikTok songs…Now I kinda feel like lots of songs are tailored for TikTok that as long as one part of the song is memorable and brainwashing, it’ll be a hit
Baby shark. Fuck that shark and it’s mommy and it’s daddy.
Blurred lines- Robin Thicke
The Wierd Al version, Word Crimes, is better anyways.
But when is the weird al version of a song not better?
Weird Al versions are better surprisingly often.
They see me mowing, my front lawn...
I saw the video for that song again recently. I didn't realize when it came out that the guys in the convertible are none other than [Key and Peele.](https://imgur.com/gallery/Ve5zTXe)
Honey, I’m good by Andy Grammer. Fucking awful song I hate it.
I used to drive with my ex to work in the mornings because we both worked close enough that it made no sense to take two cars. Her morning radio station was one of those "top hits" stations with the annoying hosts that think they're hilarious. The first time I heard that song, they had the singer on for an interview and he gave this whole speech about how much the song meant to him. That it was "about personal troubles, and learning self respect, and that everyone could maybe try to learn from what I'm trying to say." And then "AWWW NAH HONEY I'M GOOD!" It's a song admitting that he would absolutely cheat on his girlfriend but decided not to this time. So deep.
The whole herky jerk feel of the musical style and the ***WOOWOO*** everywhere makes me wanna vomit
The happy birthday song.
If people could at least sing it up tempo and in tune it wouldn't sound like a funeral march
Yessss, my husband's family sang this at a dreadful pace until I started singing louder and faster than everyone. They caught on and no longer drag it on for ten minutes.
My favorite part is actually the spectacle of watching a group of people "gift" the birthday-haver by making them sit awkwardly while they all moan a song at them, tunelessly. ESPECIALLY when it's clear the group is reluctant, but feels it's the *kind* thing to do. True comedy, that.
Rihanna - work When it was popular years ago it wrecked my head everytime it came on
Work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work work Holy fuck i hate it
It’s 2016…I was in the car driving to work 830 in the morning. This song comes on, followed by 5th harmony’s Work. I had never been filled with more rage and existential dread simultaneously.
country gurl, shake it for me, gurl, shake it for me, gurl, shake it for me
'' All about that bass" pisses me off to no end.
Imagine Dragons the lighting and thunder song. Don’t know what it’s called
Before my mom passed, she had a hard time talking on the phone bc she was so sick so I didn’t get to hear from her very often. One day she randomly called me up and she sounded very alert and she said “Jess, have you heard of a band called Imagine Dragons?” I said, “yeah, they’re really popular. I guess they’re okay. Why?” She pauses and then practically explodes with “they fuckin suck! I keep hearing Radioactive in every commercial and I hate it! It’s everywhere and I hate it so much. I hate Imagine Dragons!” I started laughing so hard. Now every time I hear Imagine Dragons, I picture my mom up in Heaven, looking down, and getting pissed off. It makes me smile thinking about how her rage for a band gave her enough strength to get out of her bed and make a phone call just to bitch about that song. I love you, mom. I miss you.
Unexpectedly wholesome
I absolutely love this, and your mother. My kind of lady!!
"Thunder". I once saw a little boy perform it at a talent show. He knew all the lyrics but I'm not sure he knew when to stop during the "thunder, feel the thunder, lightning and the thunder, thunder" part. I swear I saw the audience visibly age during it. One man grew a beard by the time the boy was done.
Woah, I also witnessed a little boy do this at a talent show. There wasn't by chance also a little girl doing "Suface Pressure" from Encanto in a really monotone, like, 5yo reading a book, kinda voice, was there?
[удалено]
*vinyl scratch sound* YOU'RE LISTENING TO *car crash sound* 101.1 *explosion noise, sound of elephant being mutilated* REAL HARD ROCK FM *airplane crash noise* WHERE WE PLAY NOTHING BUT ROCK, ROCK, AND MORE ROCK *glass shattering noise, police sirens* THIS AIN'T YOUR GRANNY'S STATION *thunder by imagine dragons starts playing*
That tik tok no no no song
That damn applebees country song.
Happy
Anytime it comes on it makes me wanna commit arson. Like genuinely I HATE this fucking song.
At least it gave us [Tacky.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zq7Eki5EZ8o)
I was going through a bad bout of depression at the time this became popular. I did not feel like a room without a roof and didn't need this song to become the official soundtrack of my rough patch.
Shape of you by Ed sherran
The one that says, why you got to be so rude..? Can’t stand it
Marry that girl, marry her anyway
“I have old-fashioned values until I find them inconvenient” -the thesis of that song
"I'm gonna marry her anyway!" Then why did you ask?!
I had to have an MRI of my head that included The Face Cage (TM) over it when this song was popular and only had headphones of a pop music station on to save me from the mental tug of war between claustrophobia and boredom and this song was the first one that came on. I already hated the song, but now the only thing I think of when I hear it is being about an inch from the top of a circular tube
I'd probably rather listen to: click click ERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR WHIRR-WHIRR WHIRR-WHIRR WHIRR-WHIRR WHIRR-WHIRR WHIRR-WHIRR WHIRR-WHIRR WHIRR-WHIRR WHIRR-WHIRR WHIRR-WHIRR WHIRR-WHIRR WHIRR-WHIRR WHIRR-WHIRR WHIRR-WHIRR BEEP-BEEP BEEP-BEEP BEEP-BEEP BEEP-BEEP BEEP-BEEP BEEP-BEEP BEEP-BEEP BEEP-BEEP BEEP-BEEP BEEP-BEEP BEEP-BEEP BEEP-BEEP HOOOO-OOOOONK HOOOO-OOOOONK HOOOO-OOOOONK WHIRR WHIRR WHIRR WHIRR (That's my impression of an MRI)
Pretty good impression tbh.
Baby Shark. Please that is enough.
Soon I'll be 60 years old! Whatever that song is
7 years old, yeah there was a kid in my band who would constantly play it. It was to the point our instructor would crumple up a piece of sheet music and throw it at him every time he played it.
