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)

Because it's already starting again, "Last Christmas". Fuck that garbage piece of shit song that's ruining the lives of everyone that has to work in retail during Christmas.

[–] Amanduh@lemm.ee 1 points 41 minutes ago

I love this song.

[–] jpreston2005@lemmy.world 7 points 1 hour ago

Baby Shark. The entire time that ducking song was making it's rounds through society, I managed to avoid it. I knew it was repetitive and awful, and through good fortune and luck, it missed me completely.

Then I watched the new season of Umbrella Academy. Those motherfuckers.

The Gummy Bear song. I have no proof, but I think it has some kind of brain dissolving frequency.

[–] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 1 points 47 minutes ago

English or German version?

[–] hogmomma@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

Paul McCartney's Christmas song. It's a blight upon all mankind.

That one justin bieber song from when he first got famous

[–] Dumbkid@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 39 minutes ago

Do I get to remember it? So then I can just make it again and say it's my song

[–] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 1 points 48 minutes ago

That stupid song that gets used in every Youtube short (Time and Hope - Cinematic)

Last Christmas by Wham!

Mr. Brightside by the killers.... fuck that song, fuck that song so much. My hatred of that song extends to everything else the killers do without ever hearing them

A Kid Rock song and there are so many good candidates I can't decide.

[–] Smoogs@lemmy.world 9 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

Baby it’s cold outside.

Seems to be America’s favourite rape song played for the entire cold season.

[–] TurdMongler@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago

Santa Baby is also pretty gross. "Hurry down my chimney tonight" ...urm, okay..

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 5 points 4 hours ago

Damn it is pretty pushy now that you mention it

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 6 points 4 hours ago

Happy birthday. Just to see what replaces it in NA

Good point. If the wizard did this you also would never know that such a song existed. Hence your "worst song in the world" spot would be filled with a different song the instant the spell hits.

It shows how such categories as "the worst" and "the best" are only constructions of our mind.

[–] wowbagger@lemm.ee 20 points 6 hours ago

The US national anthem. People will stand around before sporting events knowing that they used to do something but are mystified they can't remember what.

[–] BuckWylde@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours ago

Brown Eyed Girl

Sweet Caroline. No question.

This is extremely brave

For the sake of that one poor woman, please delete "cbat." It's done enough damage.

'My Heart Will Go On' by Celine Dion

Jesse's Girl. My high school used it daily in an ad for some bullshit they wanted to sell, and my first 10 working years they had a radio on wherever I worked on one of three stations depending, all of which play that song at least (at least) once a day every day. (That's at least daily and sometimes twice a day exposure to that garbage song for 14 years straight for anyone counting.)

If I hear it come on I will leave the room, and I'll be back in 3:14. Idgaf where I am. If I have the aux (it won't be played, but if it somehow does) I'm changing it. If I hit the lotto I'm buying the rights so nobody can play it on the radio and taking it off streaming so I can lessen the likelihood of exposure. I'll put it for free on itunes or some shit and never strike pirates but for the love of god please don't play it near me!

All I want for Christmas - Mariah Carrey

This.

I am so sick of that goddamn song.

She's defrosting...

[–] EllE@lemmy.world 12 points 9 hours ago

The American national anthem, please.

It's such a terrible song, and it keeps getting sung in weird ways by bad singers. I swear, as a non-american I'm subjugated to it more often than all other national anthems combined, including my own.

[–] Pringles@lemm.ee 3 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

I'm a big big girl in a big big world. I fucking hate that song with every fiber of my being.

F*ck you very much for that earworm dude

[–] OneWomanCreamTeam@sh.itjust.works 10 points 10 hours ago

The United States of America National Anthem.
