Andy Stewart. Not many people can recall, I expect.

Let the wind blow high, let the wind blow low, through the streets in my kilt I'll go, all the lassies say "Hello - Donald, where's your troosers?"

Butterfly Kisses. I HATE THIS SONG. I know many people think it's beautiful and touching and it makes them sob. I don't care. The guy can't sing. He sounds like he's shuddering into the microphone. It's sappy. It's horrible. I have to hear it at EVERY WEDDING I GO TO since all my friends and I grew up in the 90s. Why doesn't someone pick a creative father-daughter song, huh? What about Led Zepplin's Ocean? That's a damn good song. What about "The Way You Look Tonight"? What about ANYTHING OTHER THAN BUTTERFLY FREAKING KISSES?

Any hyper-patriotic pop country song. You can be patriotic without being sappy. I honestly think most of these songs give Americanism a bad name. I think the only one I can stand is "God Bless the USA." It's cheesey, but it's the first. It's heartfelt. It's not a bandwagon song.

I Think I Love You by the Carpenters. The spooky music in the background...the failure to rhyme...the background vocals that make you want to grind your teeth, the huge windup to the word "I" in the phrase "I think I love you..." It's an all around horrible song.

McArthur Park. Any version. "I don't think that I can take it, cause it took so long to bake it, and I'll never have that recipe agaiiinnnn...ohhhh noooooo!" What.the.bloody.hell. This song is a prime example of why you should not smoke crack.

When you think of all those Stevie Wonder classics, what on earth was he thinking of when he wrote "I just called to say I love you"? - Always makes me cringe - especially the last 3 notes

Anything by Celine Dion, really - but special venom is reserved for "My Heart Will Go On". Not if I had my way it wouldn't.

I also really loathe Midnight at the Oasis. I mean, WTF? And the way her voice gurgles on the word "oasis".......shudder

"Grandma, I Love You" by St Winifred's School Choir. Absolute pants.

I've never heard of them Jives, but i 'googled' them and the first set of lyrics I came across were shocking to say the least. Is this short for Insane Clown Posse, or a totally different band altogether ?

Bez...you should check out this thread. It's one of the longest and most heated on the boards. Basically, it's me and the good members here vs. the evil, death-oriented, hate-worshippers. Great reading from beginning to end.

It's also as close to a sheer flame-war as you can find on these boards, and some of my best writing ever.

I would have to go with anything by Kelly Clarkson (the first American Idol) but most especially A Moment Like This and Breakaway

There are others, but those are two I file under "things that make you go ewwwww":-5

Anything by James Blunt. Not dissin' talent, but his voice makes me twitch.

Oddly, I can agree that neither Neil Young nor Bob Dylan are exactly Angels I Have Heard On High, but they bother me not at all. *shrug!*
