Those songs that were good when they were released but got played into the ground and now won't die. The three that annoy me the most are...

Chillis - Don't Stop

The Foos - All My Life

Queens of the stone age - No One Knows

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

I see where you're coming from, but I wouldn't really have called the first two "good" to begin with. ;-)

Outkast's "Hey Ya" is a definate in the "played into the ground" category.

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

That wasn't good either

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

All My Life I certainly agree with, although the fact that it was merely average to start off with is surely what makes it more annoying. I would add Damien Rice's Cannonball, specifically the godawful single remix

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

If you ask me No One Knows isn't played enough.
Float On is played so much I wish i could throw Isaac Brook of a cliff.

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

it's not a good song, but beyonce - crazy in love.
my local radio station STILL play that about 10 times a day.

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

Crazy In Love not a good song? I agree, its not good, ITS AMAZING. The best song that came out last year, without a doubt. It dosent get played enough.

Overplayed? How about:

Wu Tang - Gravel Pit
Eminem - Without Me
Linkin Park - Crawling

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

oh and fucking Evenescence

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

Streets - "Dry Your Eyes"
Any Eminem song
Chilis - "Don't Stop"
Chilis - "Universally Speaking"

Come to think of it, the Chilis in general!

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

Yep, ANYTHING by the Chili's is overplayed nowadays. Shame, make's me get annoyed with the band too.

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

Wish someone would put the Chilis out of their fake funk AOR misery. It's plain undignified!

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

That Rasmus song - at this stage it's making me cry.

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

The rasmus were never good in the first place

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

I never said the rasmus were good...

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

why not ? say it! say it!

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

I haven't heard without me in like 2 years.

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

Whenever I hear it now (not that often, luckily) I can't help but think it should start "hey y'all! This is Marshall on Radio 1!" and I didn't even listen to R1 apart from the Mark & Lard show at the time

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

Franz Ferdinand!? Mind they weren't amazing to start with, just slightly lower than average

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

Agreed. Franz Ferdinand were ok at first, didn't take them long to become unbearably annoying though.

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

Matinee and Darts of Pleasure were fucking great singles. And "better on holiday" and All for you Sophia, are both damn good songs too.

Take Me Out was annoying in the first place. The amount it's been played makes it worse though. Shame really, the Strokes pastiche opening minute of the song is pretty good..

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

fuckin ram it you penis lovin nob jockey.
i bet your mothers perm is as bad as your acne you fuckin wanker.

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

i'm also going through the 'I'm a prick stage'

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

The lord of all songs that won't fuck off has to be The Darkness "I believe in a thing called love"

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

the darkness in general just don't fook off, the novelty has worn off by now

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

Eh?

I'm not gay. My mother doesnt have a perm. And I definitely don't have acne.

What are you talking about?

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

Amy Studt? you deserve all you get.

Seven Nation Army got played to death

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

anything by coldplay after shiver...

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

Yeah, Seven Nation Army was played lots.

I still really like Amy Studt's album. Good British pop music. Must admit I wouldnt have it in my favourite albums of last year anymore, but it's still good. I havent got fed up of it in the same way I have Snow Patrol's... I think that's been played to death, but it might just be because I've seen them play it live too many times.

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

The entire XFM playlist just won't fuck off.

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

The streets- dry your eyes...if it gets played on the radio one more time....

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

ahhhh the truth yodelling of the streets..man that gets up ma nunga nungas...(hehehehe!!)
what else is classic shite...?...erm....ohh the shapeshiffter poop!

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

tHE sTREETS is poo allround I reckon. Dizzee would cane him in a battle.

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

Did you hear the Fit But You Know It remix? Even Lady Sovereign - a 15 yr old white girl doing ragga - wipes the floor with him...

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

don't forget the futureheads version!!!

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

aIN'T HEARD EITHER.

15-yr-old-wiping-floor scenario sounds great.

I'm stayin away from the damn fUTUREheads. Bought their album on the premise that they declared Shellac at Action Park to be one of their fave rekkids. Took the fucker straight back.

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

Sovereign roools. da ragga midget! Especially given that lumpy cod-britpop pile of shit track she had to struggle with and rap over with D Double E (was it him?) and t'others on that Streets b-side... all miles better than the original. her "Ch-ching" is ace too, the bass makes my jaw ache, wanna hear more...

Futureheads I'm sure (I can't be bothered to check for certain. I don't feel they deserve the effort.) are that fucking horrible lot who thought New Wave Of New Mod was an actual good idea and not a whole journo injoke pisstake & have just been waiting 10 years for a thick-as-shit undiscriminating press'n'public (and radio) to throw the horrible joke (and a Jam back catalogue) back at us. Any fucking dj that played their cover of that useless Streets song deserves shooting, whilst the band are slowly hung drawn and quartered in the meantime, how to make something 10 times worse regardless of how much you may have hated the original anyway...

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

Look for 'A Little bit of Shhh' and 'Blah Blah', niether are as good as 'Ch-Ching' tho...

I dont think D Double E is on it but Kano and Tinchy are on there and she makes them look shit aswell...

Yeah and The Futureheads CAN fuck off

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

errm i may get yelled at for this but most nirvana songs are overplayed... especially dare i say it....smells like teen spirit!!! Goddamit that song is overrated

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

not over-rated... overplayed in my opinion. So over played that by now it has become a cliche

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

Keane's Somewhere only we know
Maroon 5s This is love or whatever it's called

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

kylie minogue - cant get you out of my head

well, it wasnt strictly good to start off with, but i liked it a lot more when it first came out than i do now

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

Oh yea. Add Coldplay to Keane and Maroon fucking, fucking 5 and there are three of the most tediously overplayed bands that ever crawled out of a family-friendly, middle of the road, corporate arse lick Virgin Radio playlist meeting. Can't say I like any of them much though!

Re: Songs That Won't Fuck Off

Then add Travis, Starsailor and Snow Patrol, and that makes 6.
