These Pop Hits Are The Most Annoying Songs Of All Time

‘Tequila’ by The Champs

What starts with a promising, fun, happy-go-lucky beat takes a turn for the worse all thanks to one single word. Even though we’ve all had a wild night or two on tequila, it doesn’t mean it has to be the basis for an entire two-and-a-half-minute song.

The sax player makes up for the lack of substance in this song, though we’re not sure if anyone can ever come back from a single-lyric song (via Reddit).

‘Honey, I’m Good’ by Andy Grammer

This sugar-pop song is a perfect example of a singer who thinks he’s talented but isn’t. He just needs to give it up, even if he’s trying to prove to the world that he’s not a cheater. We get it after the third time you say it, Andy.

He tries to be this trustworthy macho man, though he’s just another repulsive wannabe. Most listeners want to throw this 2015 song in the trash (via Slate).

‘Mahna Mahna’ by The Muppets

This one takes the cake as one of the most annoying, nonsensical songs on this list. The lyrics aren’t in any existing language, so the listener is left wondering what’s going on.

It’s a battle of meaningless jabber and melodies, like “Doo-doo-dee-doo-doo, doo-doo-dee-doo.” Repetitive melodies like this one never get very far (via Mental Floss).

‘MMMBop’ by Hanson

This song is more than two decades old and was sung by a bunch of kids. Songs sung by kids are already a red flag. At some points in the song, they weren’t even singing any real lyrics, like “Mmmbop, ba duba dop, Ba du bop, ba duba dop” which just proves that you don’t need words to sing an annoying song.

All you need is a repetitive, monotonous beat, which this song successfully does. The meaning of the song is misunderstood, but that means they should have done a better job at singing it (via Reddit).

‘Thong Song’ by Sisqo

This song came out in 2000, and you can tell the singer had no idea what he was doing. The entire premise of the song is about a woman in a thong. Even though there’s a cool melody, it doesn’t take away from the fact that Sisqo is shouting about thongs (via The Ringer).

‘Cheerleader’ by OMI

In the summer of 2012, the world was unfortunate enough to hear the song Cheerleader by OMI. It’s a mix of piano, trumpet, and conga in a bit dance hit that managed to make it to the radio of everyone’s home.

This song does make us want to sit back, pick up a margarita, and make us forget that we’re listening to sexist lyrics (via Bustle).

‘Baby’ by Justin Bieber

Justin Bieber is one of the most annoying pop artists of all time, though fans around the world melt every time they see his face on stage. But Baby has to be one of the worst songs he’s ever sung.

He’s a little kid singing pop songs, and Baby is just more proof. He doesn’t even look old enough to be on stage, and he sounds high-pitched (via Horrible Music).
