Cotton Eyed Joe – The Rednex

Arguably THE single most annoying song of all time, Cotton Eyed Joe is still played at sporting events and places where people have been downing Fireball and moonshine.

I Would do Anything For Love (But I Won’t Do That) – Meatloaf

Lawd this song kills me. I hated it when it came out and I still hate it. It has never grown on me, and it never will. What the hell was Meatloaf talking about anyway? What was “THAT”? What exactly was he NOT willing to do? My mind races…..to the gutter.

Everybody Have Fun -Wang Chung

Everybody Wang Chung tonight! Huh?

Achy Breaky Heart – Billy Ray Cyrus

Even more annoying than Billy Ray Cyrus and his mullet ponytail is his song, Achy Breaky Heart. The song came out the same year his daughter Miley Cyrus (birth name Destiny Hope Cyrus) was born. Which leads us to our next song…

Party in the USA – Miley Cyrus

Is this song played on 78 rpm? The high-pitched tween anthem is like nails on a chalkboard and reminds me an Alvin and the Chipmunks song. Party killer in the USA.

Don’t Worry Be Happy – Bobby McFerrin

Personally, I like this song. It’s happy, mellow and well, yes, annoying. When I asked Twitterverse what the most annoying song ever was, this was the overwhelming winner.

Tubthumping – Chumbawumba

The only good thing about this song is the lyric, “pissing the night away…”

Barbie Girl – Aqua

If not the most annoying, this song certainly qualifies as the worst song ever.

Hanging Tough – New Kids On The Block

Nothing like a group of teenaged pretty boys singing about how rough, rough, rough they are.

Who Let The Dogs Out – Baha Men

Who let these guys record this tragedy?

Mmm Bop – Hanson

Okay, so it’s impressive that 3 prepubescent brothers can jam out on real instruments instead of Guitar Hero, but that doesn’t make it anymore bearable.

Macarena – Los del Rio

Pretty sure no explanation needed here, but admit it, you did it at least a half dozen times back in the mid 1990s.

We Built This City – Starship

This is the one song I will stab a person to get at the radio to turn the station. For such a legendary band (Jefferson Airplane) in the 70s, they really struck out with this 80s synthesized trainwreck.

Friday – Rebecca Black

The only thing worse than Rick-rolling someone is Rebecca Black-ing them.

Honorable Mentions:

She Bangs – William Hung
It’s a Small World
I’m Too Sexy – Right Said Fred
I Wanna Be a Cowboy – Boys Don’t Cry
Popo Zao – Kevin Federline
It’s Raining Men – Weather Girls
The Final Countdown – Europe
Eye of the Tiger – Survivor

Sad news for George Strait -- his father, John Strait, died yesterday after being hospitalized for nearly a month.

George released the following statement: “We are grateful for the time over the last few weeks we were able to spend with Daddy before he passed away. I want to thank everyone for their prayers and support during this difficult time as we mourn our family’s loss.”
