Songs That Make You Want to Rip Your Ears Off

Hollaback Girl

I can't fucking stand that song. I'm one of the few who still like Gwen Stefani and I even like the "Rich Girl" song and the one before that. But this? This crap makes me want to tear my radio out of the dash and throw it out the window.

I tried to listen to it, figured maybe it just needed to grow on me. I can never get past the damn "banana" part.

Me either. I have to ask, though...what in the name of LAMB is she saying in that bananas part? Eat Bananas? Meat Bananas? Read Bananas?

It's driving me...um...bananas. I keep listening closely to the song, trying to figure out that part and growing more enraged each time.

"Graduation" by Vitamin C (who has thankfully slipped into oblivion since). Nothing makes me more sick than listening to a grown woman whining about how beautiful high school was and how she and her buddies will be friends 4-evah!

Word. Plus, I just don't trust anyone who actually enjoyed high school.

Figured you out has to be one of the most horrible songs ever.

Don't forget:

I like your pants around your feet
And I like the dirt that's on your knees
And I like the way you still say please
While you're looking up at me
You're like my favourite damn disease

Chad Kroeger is such an ugly douchebag.

I don't who it is but the station that we are forced to listen to at work. This song is like played three times a day. Remember that old Bobby Vinton song, "Mr. Lonely"? Well, the Simon, Alvin, and Theodore voices come out of nowhere and some rapper whose name I do not know starts rapping and that song makes me want to throw the radio out the window. *LOL*

Who is responsible for this trainwreck of a song?
Thanks to bonita on page 2--Akon. I must be "old" because I never heard of him.

ETA: And it looks like I'm not the only one here to hate this. I do like "Hollaback Girl" though. I catch myself singing along.

SOMEONE POACHED ON BOBBY VINTON!? Time for some heads to roll!

I despise recent country music, and wouldn't you know I'm forced to listen to it everyday at work. I hate the songs "Drugs or Jesus" and "Pickin' Wildflowers". I really hate "Last Kiss" (I think that's what it's called) by Pearl Jam. It makes me want to go on a killing spree. Someone should put a muzzle on Gwen Steffani.

Oh.My.God. That Ludacris song with the Austin Powers sample. It seriously could drive someone to the brink of insanity. I think it's called "Number One Spot." Whoever thought that tweedly noise would make for music should be shot.

When I was in the Navy stationed in Bremerton, WA, they used to play recordings of bells playing tunes in the downtown area at Christmas time. Did they play Christmas songs, you ask? Why, no. They played the all-bells version of Volare. Thirty years later I...well, I want to rip my ears off...whenever I hear any version of Volare.

I so agree. Everytime I hear it I hope that they'll actually play the entire theme instead of a little bit that sounds like it's skipping. This song and that "Lonely" song have something in common - really bad samples. I sure hope this isn't a trend.

"Red Red Wine" My hatred for that song knows no bounds.
