The list


source
Heyo pals! here is the second questions to the list of songs.   Today we are talking about our all time LEAST favorite song.  And again, I have a list to choose from.  Sadly, there is TONS of shit music out there.  And to make this task easier, I decided to ignore bad songs that *most* people think are bad (ie: summer girls,  anything by the black eyed peas, the graduation song, or that damn Friday song, )  Of course there are tons of songs that NO ONE wants to hear again, EVER. (the macarena,with arms wide open, etc. ) 

So instead of filling this thing full of songs that you all think are terrible, too (or at least I hope you find my examples piss poor songs) I'm going to note a song  I can not stand to listen to. 

So here it is, my ultimate number one LEAST favorite song (yes, you guessed it, Sara...)
Wonderful Tonight by Eric Clapton.  God damn do I HATE this song.  As long as I can remember I have hated this song.  And then I learned the history behind it (Eric Clapton, while an amazing musician, was a real douche back in the 60's/70's, in my opinion.  wife stealer, alcoholic producer, and generally speaking, a big jerk) and it made me dislike the song even more (if you aren't aware of what I am talking about here, just ask.  I don't feel like explaining in 2 sentences what makes Clapton's history ridiculous.) 

Now, I struggled here.  While I hate the shit out of this song, I'm not sure if Ishould I post it so you all can hear it.  i went back and forth and felt it only fair to allow you to listen, even if I never want to hear this again. EVER.
I know you expected me to say Brown-Eyed girl as well, but if I'm just picking one song, there is no room for that here.  Besides, I'm by NO MEANS saying I enjoy brown-eyed girl, but if it comes on, I no longer feel the need to plug my ears with disgust.  I guess that's part of maturing ;)

And you?  LEAST favorite song?

    I would not hate you. Not at all! You are just missing out on a great tune ;) it's okay though-we all have different tastes in music. I was thinking about a comment Nora said about Mumford and sons the other day-how she is way into them. I myself don't care for those guys at all and think they are nothing special, but I still like Nora :) And really, Maybe I just love Steely Dan so much because I grew up on them.

    there is a whole era of music from the 70s/80s that i hate because i heard it all the time growing up(cue sailing by christopher cross). i think steely dan is in that mix. it's funny how memories can make or break music for people!

    Agreed. I mean times 100. There are so. many. songs that bring me back (both good and bad) and my enjoyment/hatred to the music has almost nothing to do with the actual music, but rather the memories connected to the songs. That is why music is SO amazing!
