I love music, but there are some songs that I just cannot deal with. When they come on in the supermarket, I run for the door. I really do. Lucky for you, I'm going to give you a list of these horrid ditties. This way, you can start campaigning that your local radio stations take them off their play list immediately. The sooner we get started, the sooner we'll be free to browse for melons without the fear of tasteless music lingering in the back of our minds. Here goes:
1. London Bridge by Fergie
The first time I heard this song, I was in awe. I was in awe that it was considered a song. I was in awe that a radio station agreed to play it. I was in awe that anybody liked it. When I heard people talk about what a good song it was, I was literally stunned. I would ask them to explain to me why they liked the song. It was just THAT shocking to me. On top of the general crappiness of the song, Fergie kind of slur/whines throughout the entire thing which is really annoying.
2. Single Ladies by Beyonce
This song makes me insane. I've never been a big Beyonce fan (although I do really like her song Halo). I can't say much about this tune other than it's just annoying. It also seems to contradict Beyonce's strong independent woman persona. Point is- I could do without this song (and that's putting it mildly).
3. Anything by Creed or Hinder
No explanation is necessary. Anybody who disagrees might be a robot.
4. Bubbly by Colby Calet
I have a feeling that a lot of girls like this song, but I cannot stand it. It's so corny. The entire song makes me cringe. Example: "Every time I see your bubbly face I get the tinglies in a silly place." That is an actual lyric. If you're not cringing, you are most likely a robot.
5. Love Song by Sarah Bareilles
The main thing that's annoying about this song is Sarah's voice. Her voice has this irritating purr to it when she belts out, "I'm not gonna write you a loooveee songgg." It was on some commercial, and it drove me insane. The lyrics are also bothersome. She doesn't want to write this guy a love song, because he asked her to. So now she's writing a song about not wanting to write him a song. Honestly, I wish she'd never written it at all.
6. Summer Time by Kid Rock
The most annoying element to this song is when Kid says, "We were trying different things, and we were smoking funny things." Why does he rhyme "things" with "things?" Can't he think of any other word?! It drives me nutty when people do that. I really don't think I'd mind the song that much if he changed that lyric. But for some reason, that ONE "THING" ruins the entire song for me.
7. Damaged by Danity Kane
I just do not like this song. "How ya gonna fix it fix it fix it?" It just pokes at my nerves. If that song comes on when I'm in the tanning bed, I turn off the radio. I'd rather bake in silence, and that's saying a lot.
So yes. My idea of hell is being shut in a room and having to listen to these songs on a mix cd. On repeat. For all eternity.
So get your pens scribbling chillins. Petition your local stations!
