This ability of the sorcerer will wipe any one song of your choosing from the pages of history, as if it never existed! Gone from our reality. They were going to do it anyway, but they’re making you choose.
Which song would you pick?
(If you really can’t narrow it down to one, then try narrowing to three)

Sweet Caroline. No question.
This is extremely brave
Jesse’s Girl. My high school used it daily in an ad for some bullshit they wanted to sell, and my first 10 working years they had a radio on wherever I worked on one of three stations depending, all of which play that song at least (at least) once a day every day. (That’s at least daily and sometimes twice a day exposure to that garbage song for 14 years straight for anyone counting.)
If I hear it come on I will leave the room, and I’ll be back in 3:14. Idgaf where I am. If I have the aux (it won’t be played, but if it somehow does) I’m changing it. If I hit the lotto I’m buying the rights so nobody can play it on the radio and taking it off streaming so I can lessen the likelihood of exposure. I’ll put it for free on itunes or some shit and never strike pirates but for the love of god please don’t play it near me!
Oh, probably this song or one like it:
Yes, it was a real song, published in London in 1900.
fuck, it gets worse the longer you look at it.
“…he sold the wool from off his head” wtf
1-877-CARS-4KIDS
K.A.R.S CARS FOR KIDS
1-877-CARS 4 KIDS
DONATE YOUR CAR TODAY
runs screaming off a cliff, smiling through tears
K a r s cars for kids?
They’re kids, not English professors
Sorry, whenever I read the phone number 1 877 Kars for kids, it needs to be spelled incorrectly, just in case someone wanted to donate their car today. If they’re going to spell it wrong I’m the phone number it should be spelled wrong in the lyrics. I didn’t realize the op had spelled out the phone number correctly XD
Now accepting donations of land, buildings, and other forms of real estate!
Can I please donate the real estate this occupies in my brain.
1000%
Queen’s Radio Ga-Ga so I won’t have PTSD about it anymore. When I was 19, I worked on a cruise ship that was still in the final stages of construction and at one point they were testing the PA system by playing that song, on repeat, for seven whole fucking days.
Are you sure it was a cruise ship and not some sort of squid game shit? Because that sounds like actual torture.
If there was anyone else aboard NCL’s Pride of America before it left dry dock in Bremerhaven around 2004/2005 that is also on Lemmy, they’d be able to back me up. But there is a good chance everyone else who suffered with me is locked in the loony bin from having heard Radio Ga-Ga for a week.
The Song That Never Ends—we’ll finally rescue all those people who started singing it not knowing what it was.
But they’ll continue singing forever, they just won’t know what they’re singing anymore.
Never Gonna Give You Up just so it breaks the Internet.
I actually quite like Weezer, but goddamn that song drives me nuts for some reason I can’t put my finger on. A close second is Bubbly - Colbie Caillat, in large part because of the line “I get the tingles in a silly place”. It’s such a deranged way to say you’re horny.
I think Beverly Hills is supposed to be grating. Like the people from Beverly Hills.
probably a hot take:- Turkey in the Straw
Not that hot a take if you look up the original lyrics though
searched it just now and yeah it’s pretty bad

No one’s gonna say that marraiah carrey christmas song? Ok i’ll say it, tha marraiah carrey Christmas song.
obligatory link to the Zalinki video
Everyone in retail will worship you.
Then you’ll get all the remixes of Feliz Navidad instead.
At least they’re remixes with some fucking variation
I want the retail stores to play something with more gusto, like I Believe in Father Christmas (by Greg Lake, sounds a bit different than the name suggests)
Last Christmas is a close contender tho
i listen to that all year
This is the way.
But then you’d ruin Christmas for the cyber goths… https://youtu.be/eJc6-DgaQa0?si=M1w4RWEBfHW1_l3v
The “oh no oh no” high pitched “song” from TikTok that plays from my mom’s phone when I’m about to sleep
Ask her to use headphones?
Happy Birthday
Somebody just posted this image in another Ask and I thought it was relevant:
Damn! I was going to say American Pie but I think you’ve got the better answer but I don’t want to hear either of these songs ever again.
Baaaaby SHARK! Do-da-dooo, baby SHark……
I’d made it so long without hearing that song until it popped up in Umbrella Academy. Streak ruined.
All I want for Christmas - Mariah Carrey
This.
I am so sick of that goddamn song.
She’s defrosting…
I’d improvise one on the spot. just to prevent the erasure of others’ art. Nah, fuck that; Baby Shark can die.
