If you had no other option apart from listening to music on a radio, what song would immediately make you change the station?

Immediately have an answer. All my kids would know my answer immediately.
What A Wonderful World , Louis Armstrong
For me, such a sad sad song!
I also really dislike Somewhere Over The Rainbow.
Both have that sappy sad vibe to me.

I reject the entire premise of hating one of the great songs of our lifetime!!
There’s a lot of artists I don’t like - so most any rap, hip hop, or pink song - except Give Me A reason
Oh, and Beatles Revolution - just don’t love that song for some reason although I love the Beatles. And Wild Horses by the Stones

Rick Dees - Disco Duck - my god.
Another dumb one like that - that isn’t a song - from the 70s. Convoy. Big hit - no clue why.

In Dave Berry’s hilarious book of bad songs he asks why they didn’t just name the horse!

“Color My World”. If you tell me that was your Senior prom theme song, I know that you graduated in 1972. (not my class and thankfully not our song).

Anything by the BeeGees. I actually have been known to walk out of a store if I hear one of their songs playing. Annoying AND they get stuck in my head!

All I want for Christmas is you. Mariah Carey. It’s so overplayed and I get a visceral reaction when it comes on the radio.

I work in a retail store and the Pandora station is invariably set on Songs You Never Want to Hear Again. And yes Horse with no Name is played often on this station as is Summer Breeze.

I wonder if our choices might be an indicator of whether or not we’d be friends IRL. 
A lot of songs make me change the station. Sometimes they are songs I once listened to, but I guess I listened one too many times. Sometimes they’re just god-awful songs. Off the top of my head, here’s a couple that come to mind:
My Humps (Blackeyed Peas)
Your Body is a Wonderland (John Mayer)
Da-do-do-do, De-da-da-da (Police)
Tonight’s the Night (Rod Stewart) - cringe!
Stairway to Heaven (Yes, I liked it once upon a time … in junior high school. I’m over it.)

Oh, oh!! I want to add John Mayer’s Daughters, as well. Although I read once that Mayer himself hates the song, and Wonderland…

I despise MANY of these. 
Stairway To Heaven. For some reason we sang this at a choir concert in 7th grade. I can clearly remember standing on the bleachers and thinking “ this song is so inappropriate for us to be singing to our parents”.

I dislike so many listed above. But I’ll add one to the list that provokes a nearly Pavlovian turn it off response from me: Legs by ZZTop.

Ohhh, do I have a story about this one… in 2001, my mom’s partner of 18 years was dying of pancreatic cancer and I was tasked with driving to a Record Store and purchasing a cassette tape with this song on it. It was played at his deathbed a day or two later.
I am a speech-language pathologist at an elementary school. This year, admin in its infinite wisdom has located the music room next to my office. Week after week, I have experienced the “joy” of listening to kids practicing What a Wonderful World, which has a permanent very sad connotation for me, over and over. Not to mention, hearing the lyrics of this song while we were bombing the poop out of Iran last week just… Was Not Working For Me. At face value, it’s a beautiful song, but no thank you.
