I just wanted to say thanks to anyone who may have donated. Again you have no idea how much it means. Not gonna spam this message all day today, don’t worry, but thank you to those that did… Thank you so so much. And to anyone who upvoted or commented or gave well wishes. It means the entire world to me right now.
On top of it being an irritatingly clingy earworm, with a refrain that when heard once feels like you’ve heard it a dozen times and every time you do it sounds more annoying than the previous time, it’s a song I’m glad doesn’t get played as much as during its heydey because it can make people physically sick, not to mention the mental side.
Kings Of Leon - Sex On Fire
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.

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.
Hot for teacher by Van Halen just absolutely pisses me off. I guess I’m old now.
Some song with Eminem and some other woman, I don’t know the name but the woman sings “Just gonna stand there and watch me cry” or something. Fucking hated when they were blasting that on the radio constantly in like 2012 or whenever
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.
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.
Gotye - Somebody That I Used To Know
Lyrics
Anxiety, keep on trying me
I feel it quietly, tryna silence me, yeah
My anxiety, can’t shake it off of me
Somebody’s watchin’ me and my anxiety, yeah

Thunder by Imagine Dragons
Fuck. That. Song.
It’s a toss up
Place your hands by Reef
Or
Are you gonna be my girl by Jet
Both are a load of old bollocks
Baby shark
Oh I’ve been waiting for this. I have two, by the same band The Chainsmokers. “Don’t let me down” and “Something just like this”. Two song I absolutely despise, because I utterly love the first verses of both, and after these two moments of incredible music the song just turns to something that doesn’t connect with me at all. All of the energy that’s build up is released with this dance-poppy beat that just… doesn’t… work… at all. And I utterly hate them because of this. There is so much potential there and yet it’s all wasted. It’s gotten to the point that I’ve been thinking about trying to remix the songs to fix this, but don’t think I have enough musical skill.
Nothing is more despicable than wasted potential, and these songs are dripping with it.
“Y U gotta be so RuuuUUUde?”
Such stupid lyrics, and it was played EVERYWHERE for some reason.
bananaphone, feelings, don’t you want me baby
