Anything by Jelly Roll

You're beautiful - James Blunt
7 rings - Ariane Grande
Radioactive - Imagine Dragons
Look after you - The Fray

So any song of which the original was much better and non-dance songs that I also can't relate to at all.

Any song that just repeats the same shit on loop for the entire duration.

For example "Say" by John Mayer just says "say what you need to say" 42 times then it doesn't even have an actual ending, just fades out. It's definitely not the only song that follows this model.

Music by nature has some degree of repetition, but jfc make more than just two measures before you publish it as a song.

The end of I'm Your Captain (Closer to Home) by Grand Funk Railroad fits that description.

That cheerleader song that was popular ten or so years ago. Worst thing that humanity has ever done.

Yellow by Coldplay

Don’t know why, but I hate it with a passion.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

Kryptonite-3 doors down.
Or any of those upbeat and obnoxious songs.
And Happy by Pharell.
I hate him, his stupid hat and everything he does in or outside of music.

And in the same vein that Hozier song Too Sweet. For like a month all the Tickity Toks had those two songs as the soundtrack

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Any song by Taylor Swift or Florida Georgia Line. Actually, country pop radio music in general.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago

some of the later Swift albums are preferable at least to me - they're almost bordering on synth pop especially on 1989.

entirely agree on Florida Georgia Line. fuck that noise, it's pure garbage

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

Anything by Kendrick Lamar, or Drake, ok pretty much anything kids today listen to.

Every single one from "Kizo" (polish raper)

Lifestyle - Rich Gang. To this day I don't know what it's about. Mostly due to my laughter.

Human league... don't you want me.

Used to be "Feelings" from 1970s, but now it makes me laugh... and I sing along.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

I mean its not want to cut my ears off but im not a rap fan. Well there are these songs were you have usually a girl singing a halfway decent tune and so I stop flipping through the stations and then suddenly the guy comes in with the rap and its like a trap. Ugh. change the station. This is sorta funny because I do like some songs with rap but generally its when the rap is treated more like one of many instruments that blends in with the song but does not dominate it or acts as an accent to the song.

Don Mclean’s Vincent.

That Celine Dion one that kicked off the auto tune craze. The world would be a better place without it ever having existed.

"Look After You" by The Fray holy shit balls it's so excruciating

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago

The β€œno flex zone” song in the wingstop commercial that everyone who watches the NBA had to endure. Glad they finally changed it to Tommy Richman’s Million Dollar Baby.
