Most nauseating song ever
Posted by: Jeremy Marchant on 10 September 2008
I've just had to rush to the radio to switch it off (Naim being remiss in omitting a remote control on the 32.5; I've tried using a long stick, but the switch on the front is surprisingly stiff when activated from a distance of eight feet). In a show about the large hadron collider, up came Louis Armstrong singing "What a wonderful world". Why does the BBC do this? Surely that song qualifies as one of the most stomach turning of all time.

Radio wrecks so many tunes with over-playing. I'm currently developing a healthy hatred of Alison Krauss and Robert Plant, almost entirely because of Radio 2

This man is really cool, i've loved him since i was about 4 years old! : )
But my nomination for the most nauseating song singer ever is ‘The Screaming Bitch’ herself...

Mr Bojangles? There was a whole radio show dedicated to it recently and it's just shite.

I was made in england - Elton John 
I was made in England out of Cadillac muscle
I had a quit-me father, had a love-me mother
I had Little Richard and that black piano
Oh that sweet Georgia Peach and the boy from Tupelo
Oh, I was made in England
Oh, I was made in England
I was made in England out of Cadillac muscle
Face down on a playground crying God send me a brother
Not a bloody nose for Rock and Roll
Give me that sweet Georgia Peach and the boy from Tupelo
I was made in England like a blue Cortina
But a Yankee summer had a way about her
You had a scent for scandal, well here's my middle finger
I had forty years of pain and nothing to cling to
If you're made in England, you're built to last
You can still say 'homo' and everybody laughs
But the joke's on you, you never read the song
They all think they know but they all got it wrong.

Nail on the head - utter tripe.
I don't expect many people to share this opinion, but another piece of music I can't bear to hear is the theme tune to "The Archers". It has that tumpty tumpty tumpty tum rhythm that just reeks of middle England complacency, and drives me mental, I'm afraid. The first bar is enough to send me running for the off switch on my Tivoli. It's a strong, visceral reaction, and (I admit) clearly irrational.

Anything that is played to accompany aerobics contests, ice skating or gymnastics floor routines.

But seriously ... In The Air Tonight is officially the worst record ever made - everybody throws up at the thought of it and if you don't then you should - every single note in the enire song is nauseating, the worst drumming I have ever heard and the vocals are torture ../. and I've only mentioned its good points
Of course, I agree with JWM's list, but In The Air Tonight makes My Way palatable.

I always thought Because The Night by Patti Smith was pretty nauseating - rest of the elpee is quite good, but that track yuk, yuk and thrice yuk ... anyway I must get away from all this negativity: think I'll play my Dean Freidman's greatest hit collection - please click here - what a great song

That's quite good ROTF!
Kenny Everett was great, wasn't he?!.. many years ago i owned his 'worlds worst record' on vinyl, which wasn't that bad at all really : )
... who's the nerd playing the piano?

That's Dean Friedman of You Can Thank Your Lucky Stars fame.
I still have Kenny's record on horrible coloured vinyl - I want My Baby Back and other curious songs including Eamon Andrews singing Shifting Whispering Sands.

I think Kenny Everett was a twat. I think Dean Friedman was also a twat. Celine Dion is a twat. Whitney Houston is a twat. Gloria Extrafanny is two twats. Leona Lewis is a twat. Elton John is a twat. Michael Jackson is a twat. Andy Williams was a genius.
Oh, and if you want chronic continual nausea, try Clifford T Ward. He was a twat.

"Zoom" by Fat Larry's Band has to be one of the worst, most nauseating songs along with the previously mentioned Dean Freidman's "Lucky Stars".
At least Manilow has written some good songs (performed by other artists) - just don't ask me what.......
