Most annoying song, period.


Sorry if I'm replicating a thread.    I've been wanting to say this for years:  Rick Astley - Never gonna give you up.  What's yours?

The live version of Hotel California. I just cringe every time. It is just so over.
Thanks everyone. This thread is reminding me of just how many songs as well as bands that I hate. More than I thought.
3:51pmI know what you mean--i was stunned to see the Live version of Hotel California listed--then i wondered which live version? Surely it can't be the one on Hell Freezes Over--i use that one to demo speakers ! If it is the one he/she's talking about--well, to each his own...
Yes wyoboy, that's the version. I don't know how old you are, but when the original album came out, that song was played way to often on FM radio. Then the band reformed, and we got that new version which was just about a letter perfect copy of the first. 
Sometimes a song is played so many times that you can never enjoy it again. For me, it doesn't happen with really good songs, but I don't think Hotel California was ever that good. 

dtximages,

I have to agree with you about their version of Africa. I don't find it annoying, but they certainly didn't add anything to it. The guitar has a little more crunch to it, but the vocal harmonies are not mixed in the correct balance, which is everything with that song. I'm sure that they meant well, but this time, they should have left it to the experts.
