Whiter Shade of Pale. Procul Harem.
Drivel.
Never. Ever. Ulster says No.
Any Coldplay song..
Another vote for Brown Eyed Girl.

First 2 albums are brilliant imo
Shout - Lulu (the start gives me the jitters)
Beautiful Day.
Especially at a wedding. We know it's a beautiful day, it's your special day and you're both looking great. But there's a limit to everything.
I'm gonna throw in Lifted by The Lighthouse Family. Awful stuff.

Around the World by Daft Punk.
Some years ago I was on a 8 hour bus journey from Holyhead to London and the bus driver kept playing that song.

Fatboy Slim praise you. Never liked it.
I'd vote for a lot of the ones mentioned.
I despise Happy.
Probably an unpopular notion, but I loathe anything Christy Moore.
And the worst of the worst, ever, and probably never to be out-worsted, Des'ree's Life.

Great song when actually lifted by the RUC.
I fucked hated that song around the 2012 Olympics. Can't remember the name but it was popular at the time.
Blurred Lines - Thicke feat. T.I. & Pharrell Williams
Congratulations - Cliff Richard
Fiesta - The Pogues
The REM thread just reminded me how much I hate Shiny Happy People.

I'd never heard "Happy" until I saw the minions/Gru movie that it features in. Works really well there, and I actually thought it was just a song for the movie (and not a "real" song).
Zombie.
Brown eyed girl.
Thriller.

Yes but are you Human? Or are you dancer?
Even worse.
Also:
500 miles by the Proclaimers
Gotta Feeling by Black Eyed Peas
Don't know if they qualify as popular but always turn these off if they come on radio.
Sinead o'Connor- Nothing compares to you
U2 - Sweetest Thing
M People - Moving on Up
Simply Red - Moneys to tight to mention
Dexys midnight runners - Come on Eileen
J.Geils Band - Centrefold
Call on Me - Eric Prydz
Cotton eyed Joe
Green green grass and especially shotgun by George Ezra. The wanes love it, but the lyrics are shite. Just a good singer rhyming nonsense to a catchy tune
Most Ed Sheeran stuff.
Anything by The Petshop Boys.
Whiskey in the Jar
All versions.
Dance money
Red red wine
And just to blow the whole thing up......
Bohemian Rhapsody
The Rose by Bette Midler. Another romance standard
Anything where the singer feels like she has to hit every single humanly producible note in one word.
Good call on Brown eyed girl. There was a movie around 1990 with Julia Roberts. Nothing against Julia Roberts but never liked it since.

Joe Cooley said that only Irish traditional music could bring Irish people to their senses.
Maniac 2000 has some sort of effect on the people as well but I don't know what it is exactly.
