inexplicably popular songs you can't fucking stand
Sometimes it seems like the shittier a song is, the more popular it is. Here are some songs I hate so fucking much that I'll actually change the station or shut the radio off when they play.
"China Grove" -Doobie Brothers
"All Right Now" -Free
"She's So Cold" -Rolling Stones
"Start Me Up" -Rolling Stones
"Jump" -Van Halen
"Freeze Frame" -J Geils Band
I'll add more if I think of them. Feel free to add your own. Popular but shitty, or popular but you can't fucking stand them.
p.s. Oh, and I mean songs within the type of music you ordinarily listen to. Like I'm talking about classic rock, which is the station I listen to for lack of anything else better. Of course we could all pick out a Justin Beiber song or something, but that would be cheating. That's too easy, and not really inexplicable.

People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.
But those letters are not silent.
They're just waiting their turn.

It's only a few years ago that I realized the Rolling Stones song is called Start Me Up, not Stappioh

Re: inexplicably popular songs you can't fucking stand
I'm not a big Rolling Stones fan but there are plenty of their songs I like, and even a few I love. But then they'd put out the shittiest song of their career, like "Start Me Up," and it's their most popular ever

I wouldn't be quite as extreme as Cormac, but it's a good starting point. Whenever I happen to listen to modern chart music (which is mercifully rare), my immediate reaction is always "WTF ????????"

"Tubthumping" by Chumbawamba. It's been about 15 years since it was popular, but it can still get me like nails on a chalkboard. Hate, hate, HATE!!!
