What is the song that annoys you the most?

OOPS!    I did it again.

..I only get to pick one?...Okay, one that perpetually annoys me is "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling" -- it's not even an authentic Irish song. It was written in the US to persuade Irish immigrants to "stick to your own kind". It's sappy. Even my friends in Ireland hate it. Pox upon it.

There are a lot, like "The Sound of Silence," that disturb me--I wouldn't say they annoy me, though. I guess maybe the Thong Song or the Hooch, right now.

Desert Rose by Sting. I hate that song soooo much!!! It's horrible!

The most annoying song I've ever heard? That would be a tossup between the too, too sweet score from "The Sound of Music" and the blatant braggadocio of "My Way". Of course any advertising jingle that sticks, sticks, sticks in my head, replaying, replaying, replaying is annoying.

not a lot of music gets on my nerves, but the types of music i cant stand are rap, hip hop, and pop (like backstreet boys pop). the most annoying song that i can think of right now is 'country grammar' by nelly.

"Piece of my Heart" by Janis Joplin. I'm a country music fan and Faith Hill sang that song. It was the first time I'd ever heard it and I loved it.Lately I've been listening to Classic Rock and when they played that song by Janis Joplin, I could hardly restrain my disgust. Janis Joplin had ruined "Faith's" song.

The song that annoys me the most is "Mambo #5 " by Lou Bega. Runners up are "Love Shack" & "Don't Worry Be Happy"

Whoa, this is almost as tough as the "which is your favorite song" question.  Now, do you mean ASIDE FROM the Barney theme song? Way too many to mention. Nights in White Satin seems draggy and never ending (no rock throwing please)  - and of course, there was our beloved "Hey Jude" ---just to name a few.

The one that plays in my head unbidden. Like that MacDonald's or Burger King jingle that just won't go away....

Something by Celine Dion might be suited to annoy me greatly.

That's an easy question : "It's a Small world" that song that they play at any Disney event. That would be a major reason for me never going.

Kate, 19

Any song that refers to women as bitches.

WEll, considering there is a new "annoying" song added to the radio about  every week, I think the one song that it would have to be narrowed down to the one song that is played so much that the most popular song 3 days ago is bad. All!

Stephanie, 24
TX   USA

the theme song from the movie "PumaMan"--it was on Mystery Science Theatre 3000 once--and the song from the "Invisible Fence" commercial.

Gemma Lynn

"Genie In The Bottle" by Christina Agualera. I've got nothing against her but that song is really just appalling. It irritates me to the bone.

Shanna, 15
Cardiff   ENGLAND

any song by this chick called Lolly from England

Jade, 16

I honestly can't answer that question right now, but the band Jebediah would probably be a good candidate for being responsible for the song. I hate try-hard punks. You may have noticed the lead singer's voice get even more of an accent with his latest songs. Its so fake.

Don't worry, be happy...that song makes we want to layeth the  smacketh down on the guy's candy a.. that wrote that song (quoth the Rock).

Mick, 30
Chicago, IL  USA

That routinely changes depending on what song I hear too much on the radio,  but I'd have to say that I really hate those new teenybopper groups  (BackStreet Boys, Brittney Spears, O Town, etc.). I'm not really into that type of music and it's all you hear on certain stations. Enough is enough!!

Tracy, 24

"Make it real or else for get about it" Some overplayed Santna song by some   idiot who can't sing or get a hit on his own.

Jami, 27

There are a couple of children's songs that I detest, especially "Little Bunny FouFou," which my daughter used to sing repetitively.

Jane, 60

"What a Girl Wants" ... really any song by a talentless blonde bimbo gets on my nerves....

Achy breaky heart

Funny, I just had 'oops i did it again' by Britney Spears running through my head. But as annoying as that song is it's still a flavor of the month deal. In order for something to get this title it has to have the ability to annoy for generations, the chicken dance song (commonly heard at suburban trash weddings) barely nudges out The Greatest Hits of Billy Bass.

Alias Irrelevante

There are so many. I think "Freebird" may be the most annoying. But Rod Stewart had a bunch of them... "Tonight's the Night", "You're in My Heart", and just about anything that Mick Jagger has recorded in recent years.

Laura, 35

ANYTHING by Limp Bizkit

Melodi, 19

Any of the rap songs out there...

hard to tell.. i dont really listen to the radio that much anymore... i just listen to my cd's.

Steve, 29

Hmmmm At the moment that really heavy loud screaming can't  understand what he's saying music is really annoying.

Savannah

Anything by those pre-fab boys and girls who are hawked to twelve year olds.

this is a tough one for me. . . .uh. . . .a lot of folks probably would say "Don't worry, Be Happy" or "I Just Called to say I Love You" or "You Light Up My Life".. . .None of these really bother me. . . Maybe that Michael Bolton song about "not having the heart to tell you" or some such insincere crock of crap. . ."The Hardest Thing" by either NSync or The Backstreet Boys is the same sort of thing. . a break-up song that asks the person who is being dumped to have sympathy for the schmo who's leaving them. .. ..really obnoxious and odious. . .
