    Happy. It does the exact opposite for me. Doesn’t help I worked retail when the song was huge so I’d hear it 5+ times a day/hour.

  • When I was 19, I worked on the Pride of America cruise ship. I got on board the last week or two it was in dry dock finishing construction. One of those weeks, they tested the PA system extensively. They did this by playing Queen’s “Radio Ga-Ga” on loop, 24/7. For a week. And there were PA speakers in my cabin.

    You ever see a comedy where they do “psychological torture” by playing an unpopular song? This was that, but for real. Every time I hear that fucking song now, I have PTSD flashbacks. The saddest thing was, when I first heard it played there, it was the first time I ever heard it period and I kind of liked it.

    But that ship has sailed.

    Hotel California. I know many people will disagree with me, but I won’t budge on this. It’s whiny.

    Last Christmas. It’s the Christmas one night stand song. And it just repeats the same thing a thousand times. Turn that shit off.

      The song itself is pretty nice but just the fact that it’s playing 24/7 in loop at every fucking shop or ad made me absolutely detest it

    Blinded by the Light by Manfred Mann’s Earth Band

    I don’t know why I hate it so much but any time it comes on the radio I am bothered by hearing it.

      The only reason I tolerate it is because it reminds me of riding in my scout masters truck, 4am driving to our camp site, he’s singing it at the top of his lungs to keep us all awake…simpler times
