Another one that really shits me.
I don't know who it's by and I think it's a cover cause I heard the song in a old tampon commercial. The chorus 'don't tell me what to do and don't tell me what to wear' or some shit like that. I think it's one of those I am woman hear me roar songs... But then the sing is temporary interrupted by a male rapper singing what sounds like completely different song.

Yeah, The 1975 can be hard to understand sometimes. Chocolate's my least favourite song on the album TBH. Their other stuff's good though: How are you gonna be an optimist about this? I just realized the singer looks like a white Jaden Smith, that changes everything. Actually, That's just a kid playing him. But said kid does look like Jaden Smith! |

I tend to hate most top 40 songs. Been living the hipster life for years and I've never looked back.

"Love Myself" by Hailee Steinfeld would count if it wasn't cool/hilarious that there is a pop pro masturbation anthem charting in 2015. And I just watched an acoustic version which sounds way better and gets funnier too. I think any version of that song is going to be funny. Although I'm surprised it hasn't gotten criticism from the men's rights movement. After all Hailee Steinfeld can sing that song in front of kids and be in the top 100. But if an adult man sung, "I'm going to touch the pain away," in front of kids I'm pretty sure he'd be in prison. |

Obnoxious, annoying, and inescapable for a very long time. There's something hilarious about how she's supposed to be playing the inferior girlfriend she replaces, but looks quite a lot more attractive in the costume. She looks vaguely like Susan Banks from Days Of Our Lives. /Mean mean mean! |

The Sweet Escape. And at least once a day I had to hear it throughout 06-07. Doubly frustrating because Gwen Stefani used to be good when she was with No Doubt. Now she's just a certain word I can't use here because it has racial undertones. Think "wannabe" (and it begins with the same first letter)! Oh! I got one. Don't Stop Believing. Since I live in NJ, all the stations must play it every other minute because it was on The Sopranos. It doesn't help that it reminds me of 1) Glee and 2) the end of Jack FM....yes, it was the end of it, but really that was a dark period in New York radio history. /And with some 2000s songs leaking into CBS-FM's playlist, it pretty much IS Jack again, just with the WCBS-FM name. |

I dunno, wasn't her whole deal she had a load of Japanese girls and that was the culture she was appropriating? Can't hate on her solo stuff, had one of her songs as the main one at my wedding. Plus isn't she divorcing the guy from Bush? She can go marry Christian and add some Malaysian slaves to the Harijuku girls. |

Oh my god, this is the correct answer. It's one of the few songs that when I hear it, it actually pains me. I hear it come on the radio and I think to myself, 'Have we become so stupid as a society, that this is what hit music has become?' I hate the movie 'Idiocracy' with a burning passion, but the success of 'Watch Me' is one of the few times where I think the movie might be onto something. Because if that's a hit now, then what's coming in the next five to 10 years? If it were nothing more than a song to play at clubs, weddings, and high school dances like 'Cupid Shuffle' or 'The Cha Cha Slide', then I could brush it aside. But it's legitimately the biggest rap hit of the summer. I sought this out, since I've somehow not been aware of it. I guess because hardly anyone in my circle (besides myself) even likes hip-hop, let alone knows the summer hits. I felt you may have been overreacting, but yeah, it's Macarena bad. And I just went back and watched Macarena, it's just as bad. |

I hate calling any rap "singing" or "a song". ...seriously? I mean no, rapping isn't singing, but not music? Really? |

Pompeii, by Bastille. I had a long work commute when this song was out, and I'd always get tricked into listening to the alternative rock station because they'd play actual good alternative rock, but it was mostly just a hook to try and get us on this new indie pop junk. The general sound and feeling of the song make me so angry, most of all the singing but the overall loud wimpiness of the music as well. Anything Imagine Dragons, the same story. They're like, the same exact band. I hated when that song was played it's everything Indie music shouldn't be, boring, dull, limp and unoriginal. So naturally they became big in the U.K. and seen as a 'cool' band like The Script and Ed Sheeran are somehow too. |

Doubly frustrating because Gwen Stefani used to be good when she was with No Doubt. I've had this discussion with people, and I'll forever maintain that Gwen Stefani has turned into everything that the old Gwen hated with a passion. Ear;y No Doubt Gwen was the antithiseis of whatever the hell she is now |

Anything by Mariah Carey, Do They Know It's Christmastime?, Last Christmas by Wham, and bah Gawd, those damn Christmas Shoes!!!! People in my office occasionally sing Christmas songs. Even when it's nowhere close to it. Have you noticed there hasn't really been a new Christmas standard since Mariah? That's 20 years and counting. Also not that I find it annoying per se, but they still sing Uptown Funk months after the peak of it's popularity. Yeesh. |

"Brave" by Sara Bareilles. Honestly, I hate that song with every fiber of my being, ever since I heard it in those terrible commercials for Windows tablets. I had to suffer through it and "Let It Go" at work today.
Edit: Oh shit, it's being played again. Why God, why?
