My Sweet Lord by George Harrison seems to keep coming up. Absolute bullshit song in every conceivable way. Trash

Come on Eileen by Dexys Midnight Runners. Amazing name for a band taken by a genuine insult to rock. It’s a big band song.

Angel in the Centerfold by the J Geils Band. This is the purest example of boomer dad rock slop. Fucking terrible terrible song. It’s about being horny for a porn magazine photo, it has nah nah nahs and worst of all, a whistling, for long passage. Like theyre the 7 Dwarfs. Worst song

Even Flow by Pearljam. I hate Pearljam and their name means cum.

Old Time Rock N Roll by Bob Seger. Bad song, absolute Kids These Days trash. Rock shouldnt sooth the soul.

    Oh god how could I forget fucking TRAIN. Drops of Jupiter and Hey Soul Sister are on frequent rotation.

    Bryan Adams as well. Summer of 69 is a trash tune

    emoji nyoron I like half of these songs, but even a drop of water become torture if you’re forced to endure it repeatedly, so it’s understandable to hate them. I personally just never learned the names of the songs I hate on my own Water Torture Playlist.

    I still can’t listen to I Am Like A Bird by Nelly Furtado without dying inside after working a mall retail more than 20 years ago. At the time we had a disc of content they’d send up once a quarter to play for the quarter and it was like 2.5hrs of content on loops. They put I Am Like A Bird on the disc for two quarters in a row.. Had to hear it basically 4 times every since shift for 6 months.

    First of all, how dare you insult “He’s So Fine” by the Chiffons.

    Secondly, the song title you’re looking for is “Angel is a Centerfold” (emphasis mine), and the song is much worse than your description, if you listen to the lyrics: the idea is, the dude discovers that the girl he used to ogle in high school is now the centerfold of a porno magazine, and he feels as though he has lost something by her choosing to allow images of her body to be commodified (“my memory has just been sold”).

    And obviously the only good Bob Seger song is “Turn the Page”

      Turn the Page is great, but I also love Ramblin Gamblin Man. Old Time Rock N Roll is pretty bad and definitely shouldn’t be the most widely known Seger song.

    Also, I can list the pain I felt at the three retail jobs I worked based on the music they played

    Most pain: Sports Authority, they played a mix of modern fart rock (Imagine Dragons, Coldplay, etc.) and attempting to be seasonal with Christmas Stuff (starting right after Halloween!)

    Medium pain: CVS, we still had seasonal music, but they mostly played the greatest hits of the 80’s, so I would quote American Psycho to my younger co-workers who were not aware that I was fucking with them

    Low pain: Cubesmart, I ran that place so I could play whatever music I wanted and could also do donuts in the lot with the golf cart they gave me
