For me it’s always been Black Hole Sun by Soundgarden. It just annoys me to no end. Although I get why people like it and that it’s just a me thing but still and i can’t stand the music video either.

Runner up would be rooster by Alice in chains

    Bittersweet Symphony. Not entirely sure why, but the repetitive strings grate me pretty quick.

    Outside of that, any country song from the past 40 years. I can tolerate older folk-country stuff. But newer country? Absolutely not. I hate that I can’t open my mind to it, because there are very few genres that I avoid, but country is simply repulsive to me.

      Ya, that one and champaign supernova get on my nerves fast. So does wonder wall.

      As far as country goes my knowledge of songs is very limited any males lrom 1990s to 2000s I probably refuse to listen to because I probably heard them on the radio at some point in my life especially during that time.

      I like Johnny Cash diamond Rio Alabama they all have some songs that I can enjoy. Modern I like some of Laney Wilson’s stuff and the band Perry like some of their stuff

      I’m sort of new to it but lately I’ve been exploring what I would call Southern rock like a silent comedy and Dorothy

        Yeah. Now that I think about it, a female-led country song is more tolerable than a male lead. I think it’s the voice, and the lyrics… and the guitar, and the everything else. Yeah, nah. I just can’t do it.

        But old stuff, like Jolene from Dolly or Patsy Cline (or KD Lang’s renditions) and folksy stuff like Cash (Highway Man is boss) and Woody Guthrie are a-ok.

      Fuck yes! If I never had to hear that song again i’d be so happy. That and Counting Crows Mr. Jones - “Sha la la la la la…” Fuck right off with that.
