    “Somebody That I Used to Know” by Gotye.

    Was played seemingly every hour back when I worked retail. Both in the store I worked in and many others. So incredibly overplayed.

    2nd place would be any of Queen’s absurdly overplayed songs. I don’t even hear them as music anymore; they’re just annoying noise.

    Aha, I’m onto you. I won’t invite any of those songs to enter my mind and rattle around in there for the rest of the day by thinking about them. Good try, though.

      Here’s the album art for Electriclarryland. I made the mistake of clicking on wiki article that inspired it. Wouldn’t recommend.

    There’s this one song I keep forgetting the name of but it was super popular in the early 2000s and it was in the radio all the time. Damn I hate that song!

      If it’s alternative rock, I’d imagine it’s something off this list:

      Hoobastank - The Reason.
      Puddle of Mudd - Blurry. Also, She Hates Me.
      Evanescence - Bring Me to Life.
      Trapt - Headstrong.
      Audioslave - Like a Stone (mediocre song at best. Played non fucking stop for what felt like 5 years).
      Three Days Grace - I Hate Everything About You.
      Nickelback - How You Remind Me (specifically this one, but the rest of their discography too).
      Seether - Broken.
      Creed - With Arms Wide Open.

    The Minion rendition of Happy by Pharell Williams. I dare not even look it up for fear I might have to hear it again.

    Shake it Off by Taylor Swift

    I don’t know the name of it, but the one that goes “it’s all about that bass, no treble”.

    These were both extremely popular at the same time at a point when I was frequently going to the gym. If I spent 90 minutes at the gym, I would hear both of these songs three times. I absolutely cannot stand them. I disliked the second one from the beginning and didn’t care for the first, and then I heard each of them dozens and dozens of times over just a couple of months.

      All about that bass, by Meghan Trainor. Really did get played to death in popular media.

      What, you don’t enjoy a bunch of sleepy whiny junkies self-indulgently wailing through a three chord Bob Dylan cover for 15 minutes? Man, weren’t nineties arena rock great.
