    For me, it’s “Jessie’s Girl”. The things we learn about this girl are: She has eyes, she has a body, at some times she talks cute with Jessie, she loves Jessie. Then the question, “Where can I find a woman like that?”

    The contrast between the exceedingly generic description, and the exasperation (as if no other girl would suffice) annoys me every time I hear the lyrics. This is then multiplied by the fact that the song is catchy.

    I absolutely loathe No Scrubs by TLC.

    spoiler

    The lyrics are trashy and only convey judgement. Taken from the song: if you don’t own your own car, own home, or don’t dress like a prince, you’re not worth it. The whole song is shitty IMHO (except for the beat/sound). The one line about not treating your partner right is sensible but the rest of the song doesn’t match with any of that vibe. They’re just conveying judgement. I already know I’m a loser in most people’s eyes but hearing this song on the radio just miffs me.

    My Humps by the Black Eyes Peas.

    It’s one thing for a song to be bad, and this one was, but there was a period of what felt like months when I had to hear this at least twice a day because it would always be on the radio when I was on the coach to and from college.

    Awful, awful, song.

    Radioactive.

    It had a novel, ear-grabbing sound at the time, but got overplayed to the point where it now just grates on my nerves.

    Also: most American wedding reception traditions like The Electric Slide and The Chicken Dance. Do better. I once went to a reception where everyone did The Time Warp and it was amazing.

    Anything that starts off with “We the best music!”

    And anytime a DJ or song has that “bwar bwAR Bwar bWar” sound effect. An immediate nope.

    I cannot stand Hallelujah.

    Everybody uses it as an emotional song for their emotional wedding slideshow, literally why???
    If you look up the meaning, you’ll see the song isn’t really praising the Lord or whatever these people want, it’s like they just heard “Hallelujah” and ignored everything else.

    So now you have the bride and groom’s smiling pictures scrolling by while the dude is rambling about “She tied you to a kitchen chair, She broke your throne and she cut your hair”, WTF??? How come no one ever found this awkward???
    Yeah I get it, Samson and Delilah, not really a good match for a wedding!

    And it’s overused to shit. Whatever deep meaning this song has, I cannot stand to hear it for the umpteenth time.
    Especially not the music composing ramble of the opening verse.
    Shut the fuck up about the the minor fall and the major lift.
    Please use literally anything else for your photo montage I beg you.

    The fact that this was posted 7 hours ago and nobody has said “All I want for Christmas is you” by Mariah Carey warrants an entire episode of Unexplained Mysteries imo.
