Shape of You by Ed Shareen. I worked at a shitty warehouse that managent pumped with a top of the charts radio station. Shape of You was played more than once per hour some days
Anything by Ed Sheeran but especially Shape Of You. Can’t believe it was the most popular song for a long while. It’s so repetitive and grating, and the lyrics are cringe af at best, objectifying and creepy at worst.
An article about how the song was written: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2017/12/20/arts/music/ed-sheeran-shape-of-you.html
Mr. Mac and Mr. McDaid weren’t convinced. “‘I’m in love with your body,’ on its own with no addendum, with nothing at the end or no preface, felt objectifying to me,” Mr. McDaid said. “It felt like that’s the thing — it’s just physical, it’s nothing else.”
yup
Mr. Mac gave the collaborators a challenge: to use the same four chords throughout, not switching to a major key for the chorus.
Being bland and repetitive was an intentional design decision. That’s why I hate it more than anything else.
After about 90 minutes, they had recorded the complete song.
:margot-disgust:
Absolute gross slop.
I agree that the song is obnoxious, but have you heard “the molecular shape of you” by Acapella Science? It’s an incredibly good scientific parody of the song
Believe it or not, the worst song is actually whatever your favorite song is. It changes a lot depending on who’s reading this.
Jokes on you I dont have a favourite song. I just listen to whatever comes up on the radio
Well played.
I’ve a big fan of classical.

My Way by Frank Sinatra was a catalyst for several murders in the Philippines so maybe that one
In August 2007, a karaoke singer in Seattle, Washington, was attacked by a woman who wanted him to stop singing Coldplay’s “Yellow”.
Fair enough, ma’am.
Any modern country song. That shit should legit be suppressed.
Is it cheating if i mention anything Seth Putnam put out?
if you want mental damage
CW: every bad combination of words
name of band is also bad
Look up the discography of “anal removed” and pick any song at random the title alone will be horrible enough to beat any song you pick
He even put out an ironic love songs album that somehow is even worse
Thank you wordfilter for preventing this :cognitohazard: from escaping.
Honestly i agree
I think we’re heading into the season which is a bounty of some of the worst songs in the world.
I haven’t worked in retail for so long but I still get the
thousand milethousand yard stare when the Christmas tunes start blaring.
(How do you do, fellow Americans? Today while driving my pickup truck down the freeway to the gun range this morning, I was eating my usual breakfast hamburger with Starbucks when a deer hit the hood of my car. The cops pulled me over, outraged at the harm I had caused to my car so they engaged in the typical amount of police brutality against me before I was rushed to hospital whereupon I was promptly declared bankrupt, so now I am suing the hospital, the police department, and the fish and wildlife service for damages. Just another day in America, amirite?)There’s only so many 8 hour shifts with a Christmas song rotation of like 20 songs that are all at best marginally better than this Christmas song.
Good answer. Christmas songs mostly suck already and hearing that shit starting from mid October just seals the deal.
All I Want for Christmas is You was my nemesis. It’s overproduced that when it also gets overplayed it feels like violence.
Can’t beat “little drummer boy”
Why? Because baby Jesus would see your act of violence against some little kid who just wanted to play music for him?
I mean, like, you can’t get worse than the little drummer boy song. Not sure if that was clear.
But yeah, I’m down to beat the little drummer boy. Either way.
You’re good I was just making a bad joke
That’s what i suspected! I’m just kinda bad at reading tone sometimes
I’m with you there. The ability to read tone and I are acquaintances but we never got close enough to become friends.
What I did is a pretty classic jaded autist joke - so often autistic people just take so many knocks with being misinterpreted that they can go a little bit jonkler mode about it so when they see something that can be wildly misinterpreted they sometimes do so just as a kind of deep satire, like saying “This whole over-interpretation of meaning thing sucks and there’s nothing I can do about it but at least I can laugh at it sometimes by misinterpreting someone else’s statement to mean something outrageous as a little in-joke to myself, if nothing more”
I understand that! I think that’s a nice way to describe it.
Little drummer boy isn’t as bad as some other spanish folk Christmas songs
Lol fair play!
I haven’t worked in retail for so long but I still get the thousand mile stare when the Christmas tunes start blaring.
Same and same. No-one who hasn’t been in that situation can truly understand the trauma.

There speaks one who has never heard “The cheeky song (touch my bum)”
Or the bum bum song
For years I worked in a warehouse and a different section blasted the same playlist every day, and it wasn’t long enough to get through the workday, so it would loop a couple of times. At that distance, with that crappy Bluetooth speaker, played at that volume, I heard a shitload of just the distorted high notes of Hello by Adele, Downtown by Macklemore, and Shipping off to Boston by the Dropkick Murphys.
So those three are all tied first for worst.
Same, at Amazon, except one day I found out the speakers were Bluetooth connectable, and you could link multiple sections together. I put on ‘Sixteen Tonnes’ and let the bad times roll.
I posted a video of it online, and it turned out South Park already did that.
My hero by foo fighters
Good life by onerepublic
Its going to be best day of my life song
Fuckin any maroon 5 song
The kid laroi and justin beiber song
Heat waves by glass animals
White iverson and circles by post malone
That jelly roll song
I dont know the name but it goes like “when i went to Chicago” WORST SONG EVER DIE DIE
when i went to Chicago
i can only hope you’re talking about flipturn’s Chicago which IS NOT A BAD SONG but I once played it while driving and got roasted by my friends (who were like “oh bro you want to go to Chicago huh???” lmao)
Nah its some new song playing on the radio everywhere https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2o8nCGhlIHY

sorry it’s actually “the long and winding road”
exhibit A:
The long and winding road that leads to your door
Will never disappear, I’ve seen that road before
It always leads me here, lead me to your doorthe prosecution rests
If it’s bad rhymes, then Pitbull has this person beat.
It’s actually 7 Years by Lukas Graham.
edit: no, that song sucks, but the real worst song ever is Click Click Boom by Saliva.
God I hate 7 Years
it’s spelled Michael Bublé (boob-LAY) but it’s pronounced Michael Tittyfuck
The speed with which people forgot Tones and I is impressive
Especially since she has another song I keep hearing on the Woolworths radio (it’s not great)
