There seem to be a few threads about songs you react to, but I think this is a new category.
You are having a pleasant day listening to the car radio, when suddenly this song comes on. You scream and turn it off immediately because you really, really can’t stand it.
Mine is ‘Young at Heart’ by The Bluebells. I have no idea why but I just absolutely detest it. Of course things like ‘Grandma, we love you’ would provoke a similar reaction, but they aren’t likely to come up on mainstream radio.
Over to you but I bet ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ comes up before post #13. I can just about bear it…
Edit: the other two I thought of were ‘Another Day in Paradise’ by Phil Collins and ‘Common People’ by Paul Young. I can rationalise these: they are both sanctimonious AND crap.
