Every time someone says 'Peloton' I think 'Reggaeton'.

Raggaeton is a song I hate. I know it's technically a genre of music but really it's just that drum loop. credburn has a new favorite as of 18:37 on Aug 27, 2023 |

I also have to give mention to One Week. The line "Sailor Moon got that boom anime babes that make me think the wrong thing" is absolutely the worst loving thing ever written in the English language.

credburn posted:Raggaeton is a song I hate.  It's called a tresillo, which is a type of hemiola (a rhythm wherein three strong beats are placed in the space normally occupied by two). I agree that it's overused and obnoxious, but what's worse than reggaeton is moombahton, a short-lived rave subgenre that deployed tresillo rhythm alongside even more obnoxious dubstep basses.Since we're on the topic, a buddy showed me recently Norwegian Reggaeton, which is power-metal guitars over that tresillo rhythm. It is riotously funny.

I like 99% of songs by the B-52's, but Rock Lobster destroys my will to live. I hate it so much. It's not just the inaccurate and screechy animal noises. It's everything about it. My husband loves it.

Rock Lobster kicks rear end. Love Shack is the actually annoying B-52s song. And even then it's not that bad, just kinda mid compared to the rest of their stuff.

There was an ENTIRE summer (2002 I think?) where every "rock" and pop station in Oklahoma City had it in a rotation of ~90 minutes so if you switched stations, there was a possibility of hearing every 30 minutes

Not liking the song is fine, but telling Carly Rae Jepsen to shut up feels like drop-kicking a baby rabbit. Heres a couple that I can't stand. Chelsea Dagger by The Frattellis. That football terrace chant just sets off my fight or flight. It sounds like a Uni Rugby team in a Wetherspoons. Anything with that kind of football terrace vocal or hook, like 9pm 'Til I Come or Who Let The Dogs Out. Although not "Kids Are United" by Sham 69, which is a fun punk tune, oddly. On the other end of the scale, pretty much all Symphonic Metal makes me want to smash the warhammer carry case over the head of whatever dork is listening to it. The same goes for bro-metal like Five Finger Death Punch. Just scan my copy of Call of Duty and give me my £5 CEX store credit, Monster Energy Tattoo. Finally, the theme tune to Channel 4 game show "15-to-1" its like their synth had a "boring Sunday afternoon" setting. It makes me feel melancholy, but not in a cool, romantic way - like a reading a car magazine in a Dr's Surgery way.

Enter Sandman really does blow. Not just because Metallica had long since sold out, but also because it's just a goofy rear end song. Like James Hetfield really wanted to make little kids' bad dreams sound hardcore and scary.

Like James Hetfield really wanted to make little kids' bad dreams sound hardcore and scary. Metallica are super cornball edgelord and IMO always have been. Watch that documentary Some Kind Of Monster to see what kind of immature, petulant children they are. The way they and their producer come up with ideas in the studio seems sophomoric, and then of course the petulant part is how often Lars and James are at each others' throats over juvenile prima donna bullshit. Some of their tunes still slap and they're deffo foundational in the metal scene, but they are not exactly scholarly songwriters. The thing that really irks me about Metallica though is how lovely a drummer Lars is. It's seriously loving astounding how sloppy his playing is and how it's not improved at all in thirty years. Superfans of the band will even go so far as to explain some of his sloppy fills and missed rhythms as 'odd time signatures' when they are clearly, very careless mistakes. It's like some kind of sick joke that he's in the same band as James Hetfield, whose right hand is a loving naildriver. EDIT: My other controversial Metallica opinion is that their version of Whisky In The Jar is superior to Thin Lizzy's. Mister Speaker has a new favorite as of 22:18 on Aug 29, 2023 |

I don't hate the song "Low", (i.e. Apple Bottom Jeans) it's a fun mid Aughts dance/hip-hop staple. BUT...the chorus has a God-awful line that doesn't fit the meter very well. The first few lines of the chorus: "Shorty had had them apple-bottom jeans (jeans), and boots with the fur. The whole club was looking at her" But when you listen to it, there is a really awkward pause right before the last line: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pm_h6FnF8HU The "flow", imo, would work a lot better if you just ever so slightly changed it to: "Shorty had had them apple-bottom jeans (jeans), and boots with the fur. Everybody in the club was looking at her"

Similar thing: Not a song I exactly hate, but Summer Girls has a really stupid loving line: New Kids had a bunch of hits/Chinese food makes me sick I guess they were looking for things to rhyme with 'hits', but a) 'sick' is at best a near rhyme, and b) condemning an entire cuisine because it "makes you sick" is out of left field and lovely.

I'm usually a very mellow person (like Ben Murphy levels of mellow), however, any time Dave Matthews Band's Satellite came on in my car in the mid-90s, I wanted to punch my stereo through the dashboard. The only other song to come close to that reaction was some 2012-ish song with a "stomp-clap" beat and some guy whispering lyrics about growing up and it has a line with this mind-blowing revelation that they used blankets when it was cold. While Dire Straits and Nirvana are both OK, if I never heard Money for Nothing or Smells Like Teen Spirit again, I'd be fine. At least in this area, those were two of the most overplayed songs ever and while I liked them at one point, I hate them now.

You could put any Theory of a Deadman song here, but I would like to single out Bad Girlfriend as possibly the worst song I've ever heard. The laziest most disgustingly sour guitar riff ever put to a buttrock song, white trash lyrics, and the chorus in particular makes it sound like the frontman needed a lozenge before recording but they just used that take anyway.

I'm lucky enough to have never (to my knowledge) ever heard an Imagine Dragons song, but I have to chuckle when I hear the band mentioned because they've replaced Nickelback as some of the most hated artists of recent years. All of Maroon 5's songs - at least the recent ones - have the same annoying autotune and sound exactly the same, so I guess I'd categorically add them to my list.

I Believe I Can Fly. Overplayed, sentimental pap from when we were kids in the '90s. e: The "I was born in a small town/can breathe in a small town" song. Is Mellencamp the artist? I too grew up in a small town, and I love my home town. But I don't feel the need to repetitively sing for three minutes about how superior it is.
