Songs that make you cringe or feel ill

**Greenman** · October 24th, 2012, 07:10 PM

You know the sort of thing I mean. You hear a song on the radio, or at a friends' house and you cringe each time you remember it or it is heard on said radio. Perhaps there is one song that you dread hearing because it is just too twee or makes you feel physically sick(what our American cousins would call barf-making!)

I would cite the following that are cringeworthy or twee or just so sickly sweet it is almost too much to bear:

Tonight I Celebrate My Love for You-Roberta Flack
The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face-also by her- Both are Pass the sickbags!

Loving You-Minnie Ripperton, twittering away like a lovesick schoolgirl-yeuch!!!

Close to You-The Carpenters-okay a good combo but please too much sprinkling of pixie dust in this one

She's Out of My Life-Michael Jackson. What the hell did he know about relationships at that young age oh yes and BEN-to a rat-what's all that about?

It's Raining Men-the Weathergirls-probably one of the worst records ever yet revived by Geri Halliwell!!

The Police-Miss Gradenko-now don't me wrong, one of the best groups ever and my first ever band encountered in 1979 but this was off their successful Every Breath You Take album but it is awful and not written by Sting!

And finally...Aerosmith-I Don't Want to Miss a Thing(soundtrack from movie Armageddon 1998) toe-curlingly awful and played to death on radio stations like MAGIC 104.9 Stick to rock n roll Steven! Armageddon out of here!!

Now it's your turn...
