Most annoying song, period.

Ignoring obvious earworms like Disney's "It's a Small World" that need a good week to get out of your head, lots of truly annoying songs are relics of the best-forgotten Disco era. Others should appear on a "never-play-any-of-these-songs-ever-again" list signed under penalty of death by every DJ hired for a wedding or other function. (And of course, some of the very worst fit into both categories!)

For example, here are a few songs I'd be happy to never hear again:

• 'Celebration' - Kool & the Gang
• 'We Are Family' - Sister Sledge
• 'Love Shack' - B52's
• 'YMCA' - Village People
• 'Macarena' - Los Del Rio
• 'Brick House' - The Commodores
• 'Electric Slide' - Marcia Griffiths

And my all-time favorite: 'The Time of My Life' by Jennifer Warnes & Bill Medley -- a hugely overplayed song that's expanded from weddings to TV commercials, where it easily crosses that fine line between 'memorable' and 'annoying'...

Surfin’ Bird was one of the period songs on soundtrack of Full Metal Jacket. Here’s the YouTube clip of the Trashmen,

Billy Don't Be A Hero -- Paper Lace ,--------YEK!

Funny thread, I'll vote later,

luckily it led me to something good, and back to something I already knew was good
  

geoffkait , after viewing the very funny Surfin Bird video, thanks for that, this video just popped up next:

I didn't know a thing about it, head down, paying college loans for 8 years, I missed a lot.

I found this 'Story of Black Betty'.

Main speaker is Myke Scavone,

I just happen to know these guys, a great NJ Band called the Doughboys.

I haven't seen them in a while, I was surprised to see Myke was/is? now touring with the Yardbirds

Gar Francis, aka Plainfield Slim is terrific as are the others.

The Birdie Song by The Tweets was pretty irritating but there is rather a lot of competition.
John Cage's 4 minutes 33 seconds is annoying by its very existance.
