Your idea of hell: being in locked room & forced to listen to _____singing_____ endlessly.

[dixiegrrrrl]

For me, Burl Ives singing "A Little Bitty Tear Trickled Down"
or
Dione Warwick singing "Do You Know the Way to San Jose".

What's your hell song?????

[rug]

1. Being in locked room & forced to listen to Lynnesin singing Stairway to Heaven endlessly.

[dixiegrrrrl]

2. roh-oh...now you've gone and done it.

[hfojvt]

77. she can't be any worse than Plant

and Stairway is not their worst song. To me, it is one of their more tolerable ones, although it sorta drags like all of the rest of their "hard rock". This is probably the worst http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKPo8ierAnc&feature=related

[Taverner]

3. forced to listen to corporate "musicians" singing their shit endlessly

[Aristus]

4. Lone Star - "Amazed".

Personally, I'm always amazed that Country and Western is considered this macho, All-American, can-do music, when so many of its male singers sound like adenoidal eunuchs.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

5. My idea of hell:

Being in locked room & forced to listen to Michael McDonald singing anything endlessly.

[SOteric]

48. Newt Gingrich singing "Missed me, missed me, now you gotta kiss me"

:P

[krispos42]

6. Dubya singing the SpongeBob Squarepants theme

[fizzgig]

12. thanks for that

>_<

[krispos42]

52. Whoooooooo.....

...lives in a pineapple under the sea?

Sponge Bob Square Pants!

Absorbent and porous and yellow his he!

Sponge Bob Square Pants!

If nautical nonsense is something you wish,

Sponge Bob Square Pants!

Then drop to the deck and glub like a fish!

Sponge Bob Square Pants!
Sponge Bob Square Pants!
Sponge Bob Square Pants!
Sponge Bob Square Pants!
Sponge Bob... Square Pants!

<nautical ditty on a bosun's whistle>










The truly sad part is that I know the words to that song by heart.

[nolabear]

7. I think it's Minnie Ripperton and that Lalalalala song

with the high note that makes my ears want to crawl into my head and weep.

Loving You! That's it! I can't even bring myself to Youtube it. Besides, it would be cruel to the dogs.

[musette_sf]

59. At a corporate offsite event last week

an ungodly noise arose from one of the dinner tables as the evening's festivities were coming to an end.

Upon closer investigation I found that the very tasty Pinot Noir served at dinner had inspired not one but several of the table's occupants to join in an homage to Ms Riperton's famous Dog Whistle to Car Alarm Descant of "Loving You".

[tonekat]

74. Yes! I Totally Agree!

You beat me to it, but that is exactly the song I would have nominated. It hurts my brain.

[Kennah]

8. William Shatner - Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds

[dixiegrrrrl]

14. He didn't!!!!!! Really????

ok..new idea of hell....William Shatner..and ....anything.

[gkhouston]

16. He did, and I'd almost erased that horrible memory. n/t

[Bake]

34. Oh God yes he did!

If you think Shat's acting is understated, you'd probably love his Lucy in the Sky!

:rofl:

Bake

[Kennah]

47. Yeah, Shatner's singing is more like a dramatic reading of the words

[nolabear]

44. He also did a version of Hey Mr. Tambourine Man that will make you weep.

The one review I ever read said that he said "Hey! Mr. Tambourine man!" like he was hailing a cab. It's true. Or having a very, very bad acid trip.

http://youtu.be/_0hTtsqiFCc

(On listening I feel I should apologize to anyone who clicks. And I swear he was dead serious.)

[madinmaryland]

9. being in locked room & forced to listen to ohiosmith singing sextoy songs endlessly.

:hide:

[ohiosmith]

22. HEY!

:rofl:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

10. bake - anything

[BlueJazz]

11. listen to singing in the rain endlessly

[jrandom421]

13. Nothing is more hellish

than Hank Williams Sr. singing "Your Cheatin' Heart" on an infinite loop

[texanwitch]

39. Yes.

Any song Hank Williams song.

I can remember a long car trip with my Father, the whole trip was Hank Williams on cassette.

I wanted to get out and walk.

[HopeHoops]

15. Tiny Tim singing ANYTHING

[polly7]

56. Particularly, this one:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c71RCAyLS1M

I heard it once and ended up replaying it over and over in my brain the rest of the day ..... involuntarily. I think that song is evil.

[Denninmi]

17. Any country music "artist" singing anything country

I'd listen to rap before I'd listen to country.

[1gobluedem]

18. Kurt Elling singing anything

Like fingernails on a blackboard.

[Avalux]

19. Axel Rose singing Welcome to the Jungle.

I hate that song and his voice; would definitely drive me to madness! :hi:

[dawg]

30. You make me sad.

Sadder than Chinese Democracy. :P

[Shagbark Hickory]

20. That sara mclaughlin song they air on those pet donation whatever commercials

Sorry but to me it's nails on a chalkboard.
I don't even know what the commercial is for since I can't stand to sit through it.

There's a lot of things I can list here but that one's probably been on my list the longest.

[GoCubsGo]

45. Yep...It's for the ASPCA

I really don't like that song in the first place. It's extremely whiney to me, and I really don't like sappy songs like that. But, what I really detest about it is that I now associate it with images of abused dogs and cats.

[Shagbark Hickory]

64. And it's got to be the longest running commercial of all time.

Can you think of another campaign that has run the same commercial for as many years?

Gee whiz, try something new already.

[raccoon]

21. Nancy Sinatra/ These boots were made for walkin'. nt

[dawg]

27. Me too.

I've always hated that song, and I can't even come up with a coherent reason why.

[Lionel Mandrake]

42. Maybe because she has no talent? .. nt

[OmahaBlueDog]

54. I can never hear that song without thinking about "Full Metal Jacket"

...and a now-infamous movie line line that became the title of a Too Live Crew song.

http://youtu.be/5PQURMsxUqk

(warning: disturbing image at the beginning)

[geardaddy]

23. Matchbox 20/Rob Thomas singing anything.

[dawg]

28. Rob Thomas, bad. Matchbox 20, good.

I have liked, at least a little, every Matchbox 20 song I have heard. I have disliked, at least a little, every solo Rob Thomas song I have heard. (Excepting any involving Carlos Santana)

[musette_sf]

60. I was gonna say

Yah, Rob Thomas sucks mightily.

But "Smooth" is inexplicably great.

[fadedrose]

24. Celine Dione (sp) or

any one of these female singers who scream long and loud at the end of a usually nice songs. Can't turn it off fast enough.

God bless Madonna and Lady GaGa, who don't do that screaming bit...

[pacalo]

51. Ding-ding-ding!!!

And the award goes to...fadedrose!





Celine Dione is one of my big-time "clickers" (my term for "can't turn it off fast enough").

[Brickbat]

25. John Lennon and the children choir singing "Merry Christmas/War is Over."

I cannot stand that song.

[JitterbugPerfume]

26. the "I'm proud to be an Amercan" guy,

or any country music would be my personal hell

[dawg]

29. I've seen him live.

He shakes his crotch at the uptight middle-aged women in the audience. Some of them like it.

[JitterbugPerfume]

31. yuck

[Still Blue in PDX]

36. EEEWWWWW. Didn't think that song and that guy could possibly be made worse than it already was. nt

[Initech]

67. Yes!!!!

:puke:

[Rambis]

32. Smashing pumpkins- rather gouge my own eye out with a dull wooden spoon

I wouldn't say it was singing but sounds are coming out of his winy mouth.

[Bake]

33. Red Sovine ... Teddy Bear

One of those tear-jerker country recitations ...

:hi:

Bake

[dixiegrrrrl]

61. See, I was too proud to admit I even knew who Red Sovine is.

:evilgrin:

[Bake]

35. Our daughter once forced our son to listen to the Grateful Dead for four hours nonstop

Mexicali Blues.

Now 18 years later, he still loves the Dead.

:hi:

Bake

[MorningGlow]

37. What? I'm the first to mention Rush?

"Tom Sawyer" especially. :hide:

[csziggy]

38. Bob Dylan singing anything

Yeah, I know, he's a gifted songwriter, but damn I hate his singing.

[fishwax]

40. John Ashcroft -- Let the Eagle Soar

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=woLQI8X2R6Y

[dixiegrrrrl]

62. Yeah..that IS an especially bad form of torture.

[Sky Masterson]

41. Huey Lewis and the News..

I don't desire a new drug.

[tjwash]

69. What's new pussy cat....WHOAOAOAOAOAOOO...

:puke:

Although...this guy does a great job of letting you know the hell that is that song.

[Lionel Mandrake]

43. Christmas carols sung by small children

with a canary adding its random, non-musical chirping.

[pink-o]

46. Pick any song by the Carpenters

Damn, did they swim in a vat of clorox every time they went into the studio? Is there anything less rhythmic and whiter? Makes me wanna take an ice pick to my ear drums.

Back in the days of the Counter Culture, your parents loved those guys, and anyone who took "race" music and made it taste like Wonder Bread. Listen to their cover of Ticket to Ride: who wudda thunk a John Lennon song could sound like that???

And aside from Karen's cringe-worthy vocals, their album covers are mega-creepy, since they look like Parishioners from some N Carolina baptist church. Nope. Can't handle it.

[tonekat]

75. Agree.

I always thought they looked like they wanted to give me a pamphlet.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

49. Paul Anka singing "Havin' My Baby" or

The Ohio Express singing "Yummy Yummy Yummy"

or

Jesse Winchester singing "Yankee Lady"

or

ANYBODY singing the genre of contemporary Christian music known derisively as "torch songs for Jesus" (i.e. if you didn't know it was supposed to be a religious song, you'd think the singer was pining for a lover)

or

a children's chorus in which the children are just shouting vaguely on key singing ANYTHING

[blue neen]

50. Joe Walsh and "Rocky Mountain Way"

Hell on earth, I tell you.

[Maccagirl]

65. No one has said Yoko Ono yet?

Don't worry, Don't worry, Don't worry Kyoookooo.

[OmahaBlueDog]

81. BORN IN A PRISON!!!!!!

RAISED IN A PRISON!!!!

[undeterred]

72. John Denver and "Rocky Mountain High"

You just reminded me of it.

[OmahaBlueDog]

53. OmahaBlueDog's ideas of hell are being in locked room & forced to listen to:

1) John Fogarty singing "Center Field" endlessly.
2) Gerry Rafferty singing "Baker Street" endlessly.
3) Anita Ward singing "Ring My Bell" endlessly.
4) Judy Collins butchering "Both Sides Now" endlessly.
5) Charlene singing "I've Never Been to Me" endlessly.

[Ikonoklast]

78. I must hereby warn you that even posting that list is in abrogation of the Geneva Conventions.

The use of any one of those against an enemy combatant constitutes Torture under the Conventions, (see Sec. 5, pages 22 through 30, under "Prohibited Usage", sub-paragraphs I-IV, inclusive) any two combined are considered Weapons of Mass Destruction, and using all five together are indictable as Mass Murder and a Crime Against Humanity.


Even Cheney would never stoop so low.

[annonymous]

55. Listening to Big Girls Don't Cry

I find that song irritating. I also would hate listening to The Christmas Shoes, You Light Up My Life, Feelings, Big Yellow Taxi, Hey Paula and anything by Bobby Goldsboro (Watching Scotty Grow and Honey).

[Deep13]

57. anyone singing "Christmas Shoes." Alternatively, ...

Gilbert Gottfried singing the "Star Spangled Banner."

[Throd]

58. Any early Frankie Valli song.

[yankeepants]

63. My idea of hell is being locked in a room. n/t

[Initech]

66. For me the idea of musical hell is autotune voice + reggaeton horn on infinite loop.

[Orsino]

68. "Let the Eagle Soar"

You-know-who.

[Kali]

70. some kind of Up With People type group

singing pop xtian rock :scared: :scared: :scared: :puke: :puke: :puke:

[undeterred]

71. Hip Hop... freaking waste of sound waves

[Submariner]

73. "You Light Up My Life" by Debbie Boone

Especially, when the mass karaoke of drunks start singing it. Wrist slashing music if there ever was one.

[dixiegrrrrl]

80. Arrghh..till now, I had completely forgotten that song.

Ear worm..... ear worm!!!!!!!

What ever happened to Debby Boone, anyhow?
Was she humanely barred from ever cutting another record?

[Submariner]

82. A one hit wonder....thank goodness

From Wikipedia:

Boone's overnight success led to a tour with her father and frequent television appearances. However, Boone was unable to maintain her success in pop music after "You Light Up My Life". Her follow-up single, "California" stumbled peaking at No. 50 Pop and No. 20 AC.

[sarge43]

76. Brunnhilde's Immolation in Gotterdammerung

A Wagnerian soprano with a voice that cut steel.

[LeftishBrit]

79. The theme song of 'Neighbours'!

Original version here, if you can stand it:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIdFzP0TJxc

[Skittles]

83. Natalie Merchant

her thin tinny voice makes my skin crawl

[XemaSab]

84. How quickly they forget!

Fergie. You know the song.

[Dead_Parrot]

85. Xemasab, singing anything.

:D
