Fairytale of New York
Outkast - Hey Ya (the song itself isn't bad by any means, I'd go as far as to say it's a great pop track, but I hate that they are known only for this one song)
Oasis - Don't Look Back In Anger (has crept into our support in recent weeks)
Macklemore - That song from a couple years ago, it was a well known one, anyway it's shite, **** Macklemore
Stormzy - Shut Up
lush life zara larsson
Let it Go- Idina Menzel.

It was tolerable the first few times I heard it. But dear god, did they overplay it to the extreme. :angry:

Omg it's the worst

Also that one that goes "Once I was seven years old...."
Gangnam Style was ruined for old Len once Ed Balls danced to it - horrid little man.
I don't like much pop music in general so this list will be quite a long one, but some fairly recent ones that I particularly hate are:

* Little Mix - Shoutout to My Ex
* The Chainsmokers - Closer
* Clean Bandit - Rockabye
* Maroon 5 - Don't Wanna Know
* Sia - The Greatest (I understand the context behind this song and it was nice of her to make the tribute, but I think the song itself has pretty poor lyrics)
* Jonas Blue - By Your Side
* Charli XCX - After the Afterparty

I actually find the older I get, I get more tolerant to music. I might find certain tracks a bit "meh" but I can't really think of any I actually hate off the top of my head.

24K magic

Uptown Funk

Basically all Bruno Mars songs :colonhash:

All Little Mix songs :colonhash: (especially That's my girl- like they're glamourising war or something)

Shoutout to my ex

Closer (but after I got bored of it, I just found remixes of the same song so I'm still listening to it I guess)

LET IT GO (compare the meerkat/market's new ad thooooo :colonhash::colonhash::colonhash::colonhash:)

Sugar Maroon 5

The new maroon 5 song too (the one where they look like weird things)

Faded (pretty disappointed cos i really like alan walker but it was just far too overplayed)

Ellie Goulding - love me like you do.

It makes me feel really angry.
Tbh, mainstream music sucks nowadays:dry:

- Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars = Uptown Funk
- Justin Bieber = Love Yourself
- Lukas Graham = 7 Years
- Ed Sheeran = Photograph
- Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth = See You Again
- Panda (who ever raps this)
- Stormzy = Shut Up
- Rihanna = Work
- 5th Harmony = Work from Home
- Drake = Hotline Bling
- Magic = Rude

Loads more but these are what I can think of off top of head
