The Toploader version of "Dancing in the Moonlight" that used to be on Sainsburys adverts twenty years ago. Because I f***ing hate Jamie Oliver. Also it's shit. I can't hate it, it's part of one of my favourite movies, 4 Lions, perfect use. Apart from Sainsburys I associate it mostly with the first series of Peep Show.
It's just such an early 2000s song, I'm sure I remember hearing that Onka's Big Moka is one of the most common CDs donated to charity shops too.

As someone who worked countless wedding receptions for six years, I hate all of the wedding staples but the two that stick out to me above all others are "White Wedding" and "Margaritaville." I could go the rest of my life without hearing those two songs and be perfectly happy.

"Hello" by Adele. It's stalker-y and her caterwauling is just bleh. Shut up already, you deceitful cow.

Everything by Bon Jovi, Def Leppard and KISS. I’ve learned to tolerate KISS, but Bon Jovi or Def Leppard come on, I turn off the radio.
I love related bands. I love objectively worse songs, but I can’t stand a sound these bands make.

Celine Dion's version of "It's All Coming Back To Me Now" mainly because people treat it like the only version even though Elaine Caswell sang it so much better with the original Pandora's Box version.

I hate "All I Want For Christmas Is You" (and by association, everything Mariah ever does) because that one high pitched note is physically painful to me.

I admit, her "newest song about failed relationships and heartbreak" is becoming pretty tiresome and repetitve by now. I mean, it's not like her ex partners can release an album of their own to respond to her whining. |

The second I heard her new album will deal with her divorce, I was a hard pass on listening to it. I get it, it's her life, her process etc, I just can't do any more of it |

I have other issues with Firefly, anyway, and think it's a show I like the concept for a whole lot more than I like the actual show (generally great cast, though), but I loathe the theme song. I'm sure it'd be fine in some other concept, but it does a terrible job getting someone in the mood to actually watch the show, and honestly might even be part of how it failed to garner an audience in its initial run. If I heard that without knowing what kind of show it was, I'd expect a dreary, slow western.

I used to run a shop unit up at Hove Greyhound Stadium, and a minute before a race, the tannoy would announce that there was 'one minute before the off'. This was then followed, each time, by Europe's 'Final Countdown' riff before each race. I worked there on and off for 12 years. I hate that song.
Years later I went with my dad to see Deep Purple at the 02. The support act? f***ING EUROPE

I have Sky Sports News on every day that I work, and the most recent set of Sky adverts have The Beach Boys - 'Wouldn't It Be Nice' which is played in EVERY ad break for at least the last 8 months or so. It's a shame because prior to that, I liked The Beach Boys, but now I'm not sure if I can ever listen to them again. Similarly, watching AEW Dynamite on ITV4 most Friday nights has made me really hate "Sweet Caroline". OH CHRIST every single wrestling YouTube channel is FULL of that stupid advert. I have never listened to that song by choice in my life but I HATE it now |

Let It Be sounds perfectly fine but 1), it is incredibly goddamn overexposed, and 2), I can't get past how utterly lazy the lyrics of it are. It just... Keeps repeating the title over and over and over and that's supposed to be meaningful and deep. It might be the Beatles' most inane song and I realize that is an incredibly high bar.
