This has to be the worst lyric "Whatcha gonna do with all that junk All that junk inside your trunk I'ma get get get get you drunk Get you love drunk off my hump My hump my hump my hump my hump my hump My hump my hump my hump my lovely little lumps" Seriously WTF is that FWIW, I believe this song made #2 on Watch Mojo's Top 10 stupidest song lyrics of all time.

Most of the songs I can't stand are because they're overplayed. Most have already been mentioned. Also: - "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing" by Aerosmith
- jazz versions of Christmas carols
- anything I've ever heard by Mr. Justin Timberlake
I don't know what it's called or who sings it, but for two years there was a song playing on the radio whose refrain is "girl is on fire". Appropriate, because the singer sounds like she's literally on fire as she yowls it out. What made it truly insufferable was that her yowling was typically the only part of the song loud enough to be heard over the ambient noise of a busy store.

I know, eh?
Isn't Kim talented? I was blown away by her vocal range.

I almost threw up just typing that this is the one song that I truly hate It's a whiney song. And over played when it was popular. Reminds me of the Christmas movie I now avoid at all cost: It's A Wonderful Life. Back in the early 90s, I decided to count the number of times IAWL was going to be aired in my area by checking my TV guide. It was going to be aired 92 times on various local and cable channels during that one pre-Christmas week in December. Ninety-two times. And that one week was several weeks before Christmas. Fortunately, the number of times IAWL is aired now is very limited. I still don't watch it.

I thought a friend was going to hit me when I said I did not like the movie and didn't watch it!!!

I'm glad there are other people out there who feel the same way.

ANYTHING sung by Celion Dion or Josh Groban.
Achy breaky heart by Billy Ray Cyrus - fortunately I haven't heard that one in years. I'm sure there are others. I though I was the only one who absolutely cannot stand Celion Dion and Josh Groban!!! They make me feel so angry when I hear them for some reason Although I liked Josh Groban as Andy's brother in The Office. Also, I hate country music!

As for being weird well my favorite Christmas movie is Die Hard.

He also considers Lethal Weapon to be a Christmas movie as well. You know, because they play "Jingle Bell Rock" so whenever he hears it he has to watch it.

My favourite Christmas movies are National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation with the Griswolds, and Billy Bob Thornton's Bad Santa.
Not a fan of It's a Wonderful Life.

Big Chief, by Cher.
What I hear is, "Big Teeth, Dunder Chief." And it sticks in my head all day long.

There was a version of It's a Wonderful Life with Marlo Thomas in the title role. I saw it first so it is my favorite version. But they never show it on tv.

OK, question for you all - when you are listening to, singing along with a song - what is your perspective: are you "saying it to someone else" or is someone else saying it to "you"? What if you are singing along with a song being sung by the opposite gender? Does that change your perspective? What if you are not the gender the song is being sung to (based on the lyrics)? Does the perspective of the song influence how much you like it? Depends on so many things I don't even think I can answer. What mood am I in? What are the lyrics about? Etc... All the gender stuff bothers me not a bit. I tend to always be listening to stuff sung by guys so, in theory, it's always being "sung to me". I don't think it's so much the perspective as the sum of the parts. I can't stand stupid lyrics (in my opinion, not [general] yours) or too much electronic crap but my tolerance can vary. So, yeah, the longest "sorry I have no answer for you post" I've ever made.

Call Me Maybe sets my teeth on edge. I hate how desperate it sounds.
Although I do like the video.

"Hello" by Adele. That song is so obliviously narcissistic.

There is a commercial for Ameritrust with "Cats in the Cradle" with lots of feel good pictures of dads and sons. Listen to the song. It's about a grown man turning away from his Dad because he never had time for him when he was growing up.
I never liked that song.

It's about a grown man turning away from his Dad because he never had time for him when he was growing up. I never liked that song. Interesting choice for a commercial with Fathers Day coming up. I wonder if the ad people realize what the meaning of that song is. It's about a son mirroring his dads way. Sad song!!!
