Motors, I'll see your Bruce Hornsby and raise you a Bette Midler. As I was driving around, that vacuuous, droning Wind Beneath My Wings came on, and I wanted to hurt people. And I'm not like that!
However, I think the only thing worse than Wind Beneath My Wings has got to be her God Is Watching Us song. That's like piling sh*t on top of an already heaping, steaming, stinking pile of sh*t.
Here's a bit o' amusement for you: my friend told me that her friend asked her to sing at her friend's wedding. Sarcastically, I said, "Awww...Did you sing Wind Beneath My Wings?" She goes: "How did you know?" and she was totally serious. My first guess was all the Precious Moments figurines placed strategically about her house.

Yeah, those songs are pretty horrible. Crap like that is inexcusable.
And what is up with this John Mayer shithead? He has firmly cemented his position as #2 on my "People with whom I would love to have 5 minutes alone with no witnesses" list.

<br>Cutting Crew. Both of their MOR albums.

AUUUGGGHHH! I forgot (more liked buried in my consciousness) about them..."Died In Your Arms Tonight" was THE MOST wretched so-called song...ugh...my roommate in college, who is also my best friend, LOVED that song. I love her to pieces, but she has (had) the worst taste in music.
She had cassettes of ALL of the above, BTW, plus more crap such as:
Rick Astley ("Never Gonna Give You Up")
In Living Color ("Cult of Personality"...sorry phillyidol, this song BLOWS)
Dan Hartman ("I Can Dream About You")
Corey Hart ('nuff said)
and more crap that I have successfully buried.[}:)]

What is it about tuneless, whiny, smarmy crap that so appeals to people? Music for lemmings to plummet to.

I was in a grocery store one day and this guy was singing "Don't Worry, Be Happy" over and over again (it was being played on the radio), and I swear I could've smashed him in the face![:(!]
Thank God I don't even know most of the songs/artists mentioned here.

I've always hated this one as well. Bombastic and overblown.

It's music for people who don't really like music. One more thing to consume because they've been led to believe it's good. Mindless and disposable, just the way they like it.

Kind of like the same idea of folks who shop for a picture to hang which matches their sofa (i.e., Thomas Kinkade). I call that "sofa art." Perhaps "music" like this deserves its own name, other than sh*t.

I bet I could do it, I don't discriminate against 80's music (unless it's Toni Basil) so I've got a lot of songs that most people (including myself) hate.

Oh yeah, John Mayer! He's gotta be the new Rick Astley. I was working in a furniture store last year & they played his hit single of the time (which I thankfully can't recall the name of) on a daily basis. Always made me go outside for a smoke break & I quit cigarettes years ago! What about that Sugar Ray song "Do It Again"? or Los Lonely Boys "Heaven"? Those are definately going to be playing on my elevator ride into the firey pits of hades.

Howdy Doody! You're right! I've never thought of that before, and I'll never look at him the same again.
