Few songs drive me crazy more than 'Desperado'. It's perhaps the most annoying song I've ever heard. I don't know what it is about it, but it just makes me want to jump off a roof.

What songs do you hate, and why?

You hate Desperado?

Why don't you come to your senses?
Jumping roofs, maybe fences?!
For how long, now?

Oh, it's a hard song.
I guess you got your reasons...

Chris Daughtry - What About Now? ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JtgVL__Li2E ). I particularly hate the chorus.

And I've always hated Hey Jude.

'Bobcaygeon' (I think I spelled that wrong) By The Tragically Hip makes me want to tear off my ears and eat them.

'A Horse With No Name' by (I think?) Neil Young is a close second.

Finally, and I am not sure of the title but I think it's 'I'm Like A Bird' by possibly Nelly Furtado is also blood-curdlingly awful.

Jason Mraz: I'm yours

It's not a particularly terrible song, but they play it everywhere all the time. It brings back painful memories of working as a dishwasher at a coffee shop/bakery and listening to the same three crappy new age folky cds all day long.

'In the living years' Mike and the Mechanics

'Horse with no name' was by 'America'

Andrew- thanks. It's so bad I couldn't even be bothered to find out.

I think this was discussed some time ago here, but I'll re-add Two Princes by Spin Doctors.
While I'm at it, I'll throw in Little Miss Can't be Wrong.

Unbearable.

EDIT- The why? Mainly just the annoying vocals in both . Plus at the time, the whole alternative pop/rock movement was surging and I didn't feel like the world needed more whiny guys in flannel.

American Pie.
Another Brick in the Wall.
I'd Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That).
Layla.
Imagine.

They're all so unbelievably overplayed I just feel physically ill when I hear the opening bars. It's not necessarily the bands; I like Pink Floyd and Clapton and wish radio stations would play some of their other songs.

There's a special place in hell for whoever wrote a song that drags on for ten minutes about "I won't do that" but never explicitly says what that is.

Low by Flo-Rida... if I hear boots with the furs one more time, everyone's gonna be lookin' at me when I start busting up whatever source it's emanating from.

'Teardrops' by Womack and Womack. If I ever have to listen to that song again, I will hunt down the so-called songwriters and put them to death in unspeakable ways. A red-hot poker may be involved...
