The world's most hated songs

[eric_B]

I think we can all agree that We Built This City by Jefferson Starship - or Starship or whatever they're called - is the worst song ever written

We all? Please speak for yourself and not for me.

For the more open minded people, take a look at this analysis video of the song:

If I completely lost my mind and went back to gigging, if the called out 'Gimme Three Steps' . . . . I'm just telling you, I'm simply not responsible for what's going to happen next, and things are gonna get really, really terrifying, fast.

Or anything else by Skynyrd, Molly Hatchet, .38Special, etc.

 

[Rilence]

Beatles.

 

[Danny O Danny]

See if you can get through this...

 

[Evets1987]

Bet not one person can get through this

Not quite addressing the OP but James Blunt (@JamesBlunt on Twitter) has cleverly built his image around some peoples' antipathy to his music. He 'takes it on the chin' in good humour. His biography and Twitter account are very funny. I suppose when the royalties are just rolling in you can afford to have a bit of fun with your image

LOL, I was playing in a trio (organ w/rhythm maker, bass, and female vocal ) when #2 and #3 was popular. We played them at least 4 times a wk. I've played just about every song on this thread.

I'm definitely not trying to be political here. But I was fascinated to learn via this mornings news that playing songs from this "list" is becoming an accepted way of attempting to disperse crowds. A sonic fire hose if you will. I wonder if how this makes the songwriters feel? What songs would you blare from a loudspeaker if you needed to disperse a crowd?

We're not gonna take it

Do you really want to hurt me

[JeffJ2112]

"Manic Monday" by The Bangles.

 

[DeepHz]

The Worlds most hated? Ouch.......

 

[Medicine Man]

The Police is an amazing band, but the song "DooDooDoo, DahDahDah" or whatever is liquid suicide.

 

[prowla]

Laydee in Red
Two Little Boys
Achy Breaky Heart
Paradise City

Sinatra. Doesn't even matter which one - he comes on, I'm out.

Oh wow. That is a classic musician from a classic era. I do swing dance and you just entered my “no no square.”

 

[TTA]

This might do the trick......

***….. whyyyyyyyyy?

 

[TTA]

Mine starts with "Free" and ends with "Bird."

Funny… i am of a generation/crowd where i managed to avoid that one being overplayed. So it is a great song to me

To me terrible songs are not about being terrible… many are great in some way. What makes a song terrible to me is overplay.

for me that terrible song is living la vida loca. Why? Cause one summer i worked in pei canada and there was only one radio station of note at work. And they literally played that song 8-10x a day every day for the four months i worked that summer job.

and i am a total metalhead… but some of the death metal stuff just makes me laugh to tears. I had a death metal compilation album when i was younger and it literally made me laugh so hard till i cried. 100% true story.

One can always fall back on the classics, like You Know My Name, Look Up the Number. Flip side of Let It Be. By comparison, Revolution #9 is a real toe-tapper. Not only will You Know My Name clear out humans, even inanimate objects will head for the exits.
