What songs would you pay 50 dollars to never hear again?

Anything from Bruno Mars
Anything from Coldplay
Halo by Beyonce

Many more I can't remember, but that trash I'd pay 200€ to never hear again.
 
Eye of the Tiger and We Are the Champions. Good songs ruined by extreme overuse in shitty TV ads and commercials (in my country anyway).

There's a Japanese song the children have been learning at my school for Father's Day. The part that always gets stuck in my head is:

だから、大好き大好き、お父さん大好き
守ってくれてありがとう

The lyrics are tame but the melody is an ear-worm. I haven't been able to get it out of my head for days.
 
I'd pay 50 bucks to not hear each and every one of fucking Maroon 5's songs. Fuck 'em! Levine sounds like someone is strangling a fucking cat.

Is currently staging a hunger strike outside Gearbox HQ while trying to hate them to death
Disturbed's cover of Sound of Silence.

Yes, please! I hate it when people say it's better than the original.

Yea WTF is up with that. I listen to a rock radio station every day and they go on like it's the greatest cover of all time. It absolutely kills the melody of that song, and that nu-metal whiny voice is fucking terrible.
 
Bittersweet Symphony by The Verve. Can't stand that endless violin loop. It's stuck in my head right now because this thread made me think of it.

yeah i don't get it personally it just doesn't fit the style of disturbed i mean think going from down with the sickness to that song. Maybe i'm just a sour fan but man, it seems like this cover was just an attempt to get on top 40 radio and it was a terrible attempt at that imo.
 
Mambo #5 or Who Let the Dogs Out. Both are just terrible songs that were super popular when I was in middle school. I get violently angry when I hear them.
 
What's Love Got To Do With It
Funky Cold Medina
Jack and Diane
Don't Stop Believin'
My Sharona
Under Pressure
Rock the Casbah
Beat It

Fuck all this shit. If I hear them ever again it'll be too soon.
 
Rude - Magic

HE DOESN'T WANT YOU TO MARRY HIS DAUGHTER, JUST ACCEPT IT YOU IDIOT.
WHY DO YOU EVEN CARE? YOU EVEN TOLD HIM THAT YOU WILL DO IT ANYWAY BUT THEN
YOU ASK HIM AGAIN AND AGAIN.

Eiffel 65 - Blue (Da Ba Dee)

Overplayed garbage. It has no redeeming features, it's just dumb, annoying as hell and for a while it was all over the radio. Thankfully I haven't heard it the past few years.

Other songs I may dislike because they are lame and overplayed (Wonderwall, Hotel California, I believe I can fly), but those are at least competent songs, so I don't hate them.
 
Happy.

Bland, overplayed rubbish.

I'd also be prepared to pay double to never have to hear that god-awful Fast Food song ever again. Its being used on an advert at the moment and its aggressively annoying.

Anything that involves DJ Khaled

Everytime i hear him shout "another one" or "we the best music" i just wanna go on a killing spree
 
Despacito or any song that will ever play at Subway restaurants. Nearly all the workers are brown immigrants yet they have to suffer with America's worst music for 40 hours a week.

Where to start. If I have to pick one right now, DJ Khaled w/ Bieber - I'm The One. I really would pay the 50, but I'm a radio jock so I get paid to spin that garbage daily.

Others? Probably Sign Of The Times, 24k Magic, and really anything by Twenty One Pilots.
 
I'd probably pay a lot more to ban every modern pop song. It's not that I categorically hate them, that'd be very silly, but the radio is playing the whole day at work and no matter which station you turn to, they're playing the same songs over and over again, day in day out. Even songs I like at first, I feel nothing but seething rage after a couple of weeks. The absolute worst are people who call in and request those same songs that play 183697093 times a day. Those people are nothing but brainwashed pieces of trash.

Most christmas songs. Going into a store around that time of year can be torture, let alone the poor souls that have to work there.

Jelly Belly
Just nearly everything on top radio since the day i was born. Can count the good songs on 2 hands.
Top 40 music is so shit and its getting worse every year.

Those Christmas songs were a good call, but the number one (and I would pay way more than $50 to be rid of it) is Butterfly Kisses.

The hate I have for that steaming pile of shit knows no bounds.

Shawn Mendes - Stitches

Feel like tearing out my ear drums everytime it comes off. The worst damn voice and song I've ever heard (exaggerating, but I do hate it)

Iron Man 3's opening must have burst a blood vessel in your head.
