While I expect that it will only be on line for a short while, here’s your chance to vote for the “most annoying song of all time.” There are Youtube videos of the candidates for you to watch (if you can stand them):

I haven't decided yet. There are too many contenders for the title.....

LOL I looked at the top 5 and some others that they had featured and some of them I like.

The most annoying song in the world is "happy birthday to you". hands down.

Who let the dogs out in the top 5, there not thinking this through.

Alvin, hands down. I would like to see that cultural variant - the south Phoenix macarena (hands behind your back, turn around, spread legs, left hand on wall, right hand on wall, patdown . . . ).

I think of a couple of C & W songs that are close to driving me to the looney bin:

All are ones that very young females love singing. When I hear my daughter singing them, I tell her not to quit her day job.

I vote 'Feliz Navidad'.

A couple of votes:

"We Built This City (on rock and roll) by Starship. Easily one of the most horrid, over-produced, corporate "rock" ever recorded.

"Stairway to Heaven" by Led Zeppelin. I love some of their music, but that song makes me barf.

I know that many here will disagree with me on this one, but I honestly find The Rolling Stone's "Emotional Rescue" to be the most hideous noise ever marketed. The falsetto singing, the lyrics, the nauseatingly repetition of the guitar lead in, overall, the WORST MUSIC IN THE HISTORY OF THE HUMAN RACE!

Dave Barry did a survey of this and I agree totally with his conclusion for the worst: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacArthur_Park_(song)

"In 1992, humorist Dave Barry conducted a poll among his readers (as recorded in Dave Barry's Book of Bad Songs) of the worst songs ever. Barry's readers selected Harris's version of "MacArthur Park" as the worst song ever recorded, both in terms of "Worst Lyrics" and "Worst Overall Song".

The song was also once parodied in a 1981 episode of SCTV, in which Dave Thomas playing Richard Harris sang a version of the song on which appears to never end."

When I was in culinary school, a bunch of student cooks did an impromptu, very melodramatic version of the "Someone left the cake out in the rain" section, in the middle of working in the kitchen. It pretty much broke everybody up.
