A sorcerer appears and states that they will erase any one song from existence - which song would you choose? (lemmy.world)

This ability of the sorcerer will wipe any one song of your choosing from the pages of history, as if it never existed! Gone from our reality. They were going to do it anyway, but they're making you choose.

Which song would you pick?

(If you really can't narrow it down to one, then try narrowing to three)

The Beatles - Number 9. Such a ruinous track on an otherwise wonderful album.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

This might be controversial but I feel that way about Yellow Submarine. Revolver would be my favorite album if not for that song.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

I agree. It kind of sounds like a kids jingle, and it's just too simple compared to the rest of the album, which has some of the most intelligent songwriting ever.

--deleted, you're welcome---. I fucking hate that song with every fiber of my being.

Freebird. It's the audio equivalent of Hookworm.

Delusions of a Savior by Slayer because telling Spotify to block it and never play it again means that Spotify will insert it into every other playlist

Georgia Satellites - Keep Your Hands to Yourself

I CANNOT kill this off my Spotify country list.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

Spotify has a block button. I discovered this after being accosted by ICP.

This song. My freshman year roommate is probably responsible for a million of those plays and he ALWAYS played it at max volume on his laptop.

Either his mom filled out his roommate survey or the university didn't read them. That was a rough semester.

That god damned Megan Trainor Gucci song. I hate it so much.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

What sorcery is this?!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

I'd probably be a softie here and just pick something obscure that would cause a minimal ripple. There are songs out there that I don't like, but if they get much play, it's because there are people who do like them, and they should be able to listen to their favored music.

"Come On, Eileen" by Dexy's Midnight Runners. Fucking hate it. Mainly for the video, but also because it is horrible.

This song ruined my life just a bit. Heard it on Beavis and Butthead.

One of Jack Johnston's earlier songs. They all grated on me from the first listen, but they also seemed to follow me everywhere.

The entire soundtrack of both Mama Mia movies.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

No idea how it's called but the one that goes like "maya hi,maya ho, maya ha, maya ha ha"

I hate that song with a burning passion of thousand suns.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

I was thinking i can't think of a song, but yeah that would be kinda neat if it was just gone.
