#Evanescence - Bring Me To Life
Absolutely hate that song. It's bad enough that it's the poster child for baby's first "emo/goth" song. Badly written, overly dramatic, cheesy cringe af.... But I hate it for more than that.
I used to do (nearly) weekly karaoke with friends at the bar. And almost every week, every goddamn week, some "quirky" scene couple on their first date thinks they'll try to be cute sing a duet together... and everytime, every goddamn time, it's "Bring me to Life". And no, they can never sing, it sounds like if gym sneakers had autism.
Hate that song. Not just me, like, everyone who frequently does karaoke hates that song. Most karaooke DJs don't even let you pick it, they know what's up and they're even more sick of hearing it. I hear that song and I get fucking PTSD flashbacks. The cringe is physically painful.

I both have no idea what this means and also can't stop laughing.
I have only really seen English language stuff in the comments so far. You are missing out on stuff like my person focus of hate "Ich und mein Holz" and the entire genre of Schlager.
It's a toss-up between Margaritaville and Cheeseburger in Paradise. Fuck that guy, he sucked.
Christmas music. Specifically the very short playlist of Christmas music that's typically played in stores around the holidays. Especially if it's being played out of season (ie not on December 24th or December 25th).
Ballroom Blitz.
Before I get flack from everyone, I have a specific reason. I was staying at a cabin with some friends, and some of the kids played Ballroom Blitz constantly. Every day, all day, for a week. Heard it every time I walked in. So I think you understand now.
No song drives me into an irrational fury like "The First Noel". It's slow, the melody sucks and the lyrics are the laziest drivel I have ever had the displeasure of being subjected to.
The first Noel the angels did say
ok, "did say" is a little clunky but you want an easy rhyme, that I can forgive
Was to certain poor shepherds
In fields as they lay,
alright, we've established some context. The angels are talking to some shepherds.
In fields where they lay
Yeah we get it, they're laying in the fields
Keeping their sheep
yes, they're SHEPHERDS we get context
on a cold winter's night
that wa-as so deep.
The night was SO DEEP? That's what you came up with to rhyme with sheep? A line we didn't need because we already established that they're fucking SHEPHERDS aaagh FUCK this song I'm not going to go through the whole thing but there are SEVERAL more verses and they all suck just as bad. How many hours of my childhood did I spend having to sit through this miserable drivel and it's SO SLOW every time I hear it I feel like my brain is being forced to wear a too-tight necktie.
This is a Welsh song from centuries ago. The “clunky” English is a result of this.
Fireflys by Owl City. The first couple of notes of the synth is enough to send me into a blind rage.
Freebird. It goes on forever and the constant asking for it at all concerts was boring.
I like it, but I gradually quit listening to it after seeing Skynyrd use the Confederate loser flag in a concert video
Lynyrd Skynyrd used a Confederate flag from the 1970s until the 2010s, and several criticisms have been raised against them because of this.[51][52] While promoting the album on CNN on September 9, 2012, members of the band talked about its discontinued use of Confederate imagery.[53] In September 2012, the band briefly did not display the Confederate flag, which had for years been a part of their stage show, because they did not want to be associated with racists that adopted the flag. However, after protests from fans, they reversed this decision, citing it as part of their Southern American heritage and states' rights symbolism.[54] The band would later cease use of the Confederate flag starting with their 2019 tour.
Ah to have no principles
Last Christmas by Wham!
My special needs uncle got a keytar for Christmas one year when I was a small kid, and it came with that as a demo song, and so for the next seven years until that keytar mysteriously got destroyed, every single time I was over at my grandmother's house (who was his caretaker), Last Christmas was playing in the background.
I despise that song now.
Home by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros. I know a lot of people love it, but I had a coworker that played it endlessly at the office and as soon as I hear that whistling, I want to jump out of the window.
That song may be the epitome of the 'stomp clap hey' genre of peak performative hipsterdom.

Dance Monkey - Tones and I
Fuck that song. I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT
The entire catalog of the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
"Heyo-o, listen to what I say-o."
What a masterpiece!
Surprised at the lack of Maroon 5 or Imagine Dragons in here. Fucking milquetoast "rock". Sugar and Thunder immediately come to mind as two songs I'd rather didn't exist.
Disturbed's version of Sound of Silence.
Pink Pony Club.
Dancing Queen.
Rick Astley did a cover of Pink Pony Club I like and its the only version
Dancing Queen... I will fight you
From me, I have two to lay on you.
I hate Dust in the Wind. Nothing matters because we are all just dust in the wind. Yes, fine, dude but then why bother writing the fucking song? Just to depress the rest of us?
And that song about drinkin' whiskey from the bottle never thinking bout tomarra singin Sweet Home Alabama aaaallll summer long. It's in my husband's workout playlist and despite being vaguely hooky it's just such utter slop.
(I will say though that the same playlist convinced me AC DC are not nearly as bad as I remembered. Whole Lotta Rosie is a jam, and also It's a Long Way to the Top is pretty good)
That whiskey song is Kid Rock... gross. Anyways, Pat Finnerty did a great video on why that song is objectively shit. Worth a watch to get a little bit of that rage out through shared suffering.
Holla Back Girl by the former lead singer of a band that was actually good.
Wagon Wheel as sung by Darius Rucker.
I didn’t know the name or the singer until I googled it just now. TIL! It’s a bob Dylan song sung by the Hootie and the Blowfish guy!
It sounds like the embodiment of cornhole and light beer white rednecks. For that reason alone I hate it and leave when it comes on.
Just listened to the Old Crow Medicine Show version, it is tolerable. It is twangy but has much less of that godawful pop country machismo sound.
Happy by Pharell Williams.
Idk it just does something to me. I absolutely can't stand it. It's like nails on a chalkboard. No song comes even close to how much I hate that song
