What's so good about 'Hey Jude' ?? Just 7 minutes of naaa, na, na, nanananaaaah, na, na, na, nothing, Hey Jude...... Never liked that song tbh.
I'm beginning to hate it as well given that a couple of women I work with love to sing it loud especially the Judy Judy Judy bit. They are also aware of how much it annoys me so of course they do it even more

Mr. Jones and Me by Counting Crows. I just realized that every time I've turned on a particular "Adult Contemporary" radio station since 1993 that song has been on. I think that's enough now.

My picks...
"Before He Cheats" - Carrie Underwood. Horrid. Just horrid.
Anything with AutoTune.
Anything by Chris Brown. (see above)
Anything by Rihanna, Britney Spears, etc.
ANYTHING by the unspeakable melodramatic melismatic horror that is Christina Aguilera A true plague on music.
I used to HATE "Mr Jones and Me" but now, compared to the sea of dreck that constitutes the bulk of contemporary pop music, that song doesn't seem so bad. It at least has a nice basic rock and roll sound that I like, even if the singer is rather whiny.

Same for No Doubt's "Don't Speak." Sounds almost like it was written by Sheryl Crow.
Yep, there is a Small Corner of Hell where this is played on repeat for eternity.
Plus anything by Culture Club. Their sound was so unutterably weedy.
Oh and Without You by Nilsson (the same song as the Mariah one?), horribly mawkish.
And before I forget, the entire oeuvre of UB40 with those ghastly nasal whining vocals.
Aaah, feel better now I've got that off my chest.. This thread is very therapeutic!
I will always love you - on repeat is a dreadful thought Yikes! Hell is repetition - why yes. This is just taking it a bit further down Jacob's ladder imho...
I once saw this documentary about two mountain climbers' disastrous adventure in the Andes. They were separated at one point - one of the lads broke his leg and was forced to scoot backwards down the mountainside. Bereft of water for a couple of days combined with the insurmountable task of getting back to basecamp, he starts hallucinating both visually and sonically. For something like an entire day his inner radio plays the chorus from Brown Girl in the Ring on repeat Poor fella - and he didn't even like it to begin with! As he's lying there, he comes to the fearful conclusion that this poor attempt at music may end up as the soundtrack to his passing. Oh the horror!

Half a year ago I suddenly felt myself unable to get Coco Jambo outside my head despite not having heard it for several years and I don't know. At least the video is more tolerable as I have a "thing" for women with short blonde hair.
