Songs you never want to hear again..

NCS

Spiller - Groovejet. 23 years of suffering and still the automatic go-to filler music for reality programmes, advertisers, FM radio stations, CIA interrogators...

Gala - Freed From Desire. 26 years of suffering and now an anti-consumerism protest song improbably belted out at - of all places - football stadiums.

Ragwort and Stones

Tainted Love - Soft Cell. Just awful.

"Fields of Athenry" I know I'm in a minority but I could easily do without hearing that depressing dirge being sung at every sporting event.

PopePalpatine

It's the perfect soundtrack for being 3-0 down against somewhere like Cyprus in a must-win Euros qualifier with 5 minutes to go.

Come to think of it, I'm surprised the James Gavins or whatever haven't made a cover of it.

Some of princes stuff is carp , this sounds like a washing machine in reverse gear

An Riabhach

Is every radio station in Ireland in love with Lewis Capaldi?

Or do they all just feel sorry for that screaming wailing little whingebag?

I can nearly time like a clock now when one of his ear-splitting nauseating songs is going to be played, normally there's about 20 minutes between them.

It's hopeless when this weirdo who squeals like a tortured pig is forever described as a "unique talent with an exceptional voice".

FFS, STOP PLAYING HIS SONGS INCESSANTLY!!!!!

I don't mind fields of Athenry when sung as per the original - I hate the 'Oh baby let the free birds fly' interjection or even worse the 'Sinn Fein'/'IRA' interjections.

Sgt Hartman

That "I wish we had Las Vegas in the Hills of Donegal" song by one hit wonder group Goats don't Shave. Having huge soulless casinos and hotels dotted around the beautiful Donegal landscape would be absolutely horrifying!

Absolutely everything by The Smiths. Said it before , say it again. I know the band were talented and could have been great musicians but the were stuck with tuneless monotonous junk. Never was I more vindicated when it turned out that Morrissey was the tosser I always imagined he was.

Brid Hegarty

That ‘Say a little prayer for you’ song

Also, ‘We could be giants’ by derm Kennedy

85603

Teenage dirtbag.

They play it on nova all the time. It stinks.

Oh that crooning arsehle. The new Michael Bolton.

And as above Derm Kennedy.

"Look at me, I'm the disco DU-UUU-UUU-UUU-UUU-UUU-CK"

'All night to get lucky' (liked at first but got saturated airplay)

I was at a hacking competition a few years ago, hosted by Facebook and they started playing that. Turns out it was the only song they had, so they plaed it on loop for an hour until someone went to the organisers and offered them their spotify account.

Ive heard it enough for one lifetime.

As a teenager I was a big fan of Mr Bluesky by ELO, but the National Lottery now have playing on each one of their adverts, and the adverts are on at every ad break.

That Mr. Blue-sky song. Just phuck off.

Anything by Bon Jovi or Coldplay.

Candle in the Wind by Elton John and My Heart Will Go On by Celine Dion. I don't have the vocabulary to describe how I loathe these aural assaults on the senses.
