Carrie Underwood's "Before He Cheats"

Much like the girl who takes "a Louisville Slugger to both head lights," I want to take one to my radio when I hear it come on. Only time I'm not listening to Sirius is from 7am-10am when I listen to a local radio show and they play the hell out of that song, even though it's not a country music station.

Runner up: Pink's "Just You and Your Hand" or whatever that God-awful song is.

Nickelback's Side of a Bullet is incredibly annoying. It's Montypythizzle-esque ranting with a guitar.

Tool's The Pot has begun to annoy me almost even more so than Nickelback. I like some of their other music, but my god, I cannot stand that song.

Stonesour is well overplayed as well. Glass and Silly World are horrid to hear all the time.

GAH, don't worry I caught that one.

And pretty much every other commercial.

Yep, that wins the award for most annoying song of the new millenium.

I like that song by The PLain White Ts

Good song. I found it on iTunes about 2 years ago. The version on the radio is different though. It's more 'produced.' The original was just him and a guitar.

I heard it live on Saturday, and it sounded pretty much the same. Still don't like it though

Don't worry, Nickelback is actually much worse than anything I've ever read that you've posted :p. The remark was more for effect than anything heh.

I hate nickelback because all their songs sounds exactly the same.

The thing is, I actually liked Nickelback's original music (Leader of Men was a good song). It was a bit softer... almost like The Wallflowers were (who doesn't remember hearing One Headlight constantly :p). Then they tried to get edgy and become almost emo-rock.

Yeah, that song is terrible, and she is a terrible singer.

They performed it "live" on the MYV movie awards and it was lip synced. That's so lame.

Anything they play more than thrice in a single day. And even that's pushing it.

If so, anything by the Outback Steakhouse guys get two votes from me.

You mean Of Montreal?

If so, lol!

God, just seeing in in text makes my blood pressure rise.
It's got to be either that, or anything that says "pop lock and drop that ass". Rap has officially gone down the tubes, even worse than rock. It's so sad to see people judge the genre based on radio songs.

I like the Umbrella song, but it gets old real quick... I'm tired of that "Hey Hey You You I don't like your Girlfriend" song.... but the song I'm really sick of hearing is "This is why I'm HOT"
