A sorcerer appears and states that they will erase any one song from existence - which song would you choose? (lemmy.world)

This ability of the sorcerer will wipe any one song of your choosing from the pages of history, as if it never existed! Gone from our reality. They were going to do it anyway, but they're making you choose.

Which song would you pick?

(If you really can't narrow it down to one, then try narrowing to three)

Feliz Navidad
Bad Day (Daniel Powter)

Could I cut up my wish into just wiping parts of a few songs? Like the march tune from Tears of a Clown, the electronic watch alarm in Rock the Casbah, and the chopsticks part of Blinded by the Light.

That god damned Megan Trainor Gucci song. I hate it so much.

The Beatles - Number 9. Such a ruinous track on an otherwise wonderful album.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

This might be controversial but I feel that way about Yellow Submarine. Revolver would be my favorite album if not for that song.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

I agree. It kind of sounds like a kids jingle, and it's just too simple compared to the rest of the album, which has some of the most intelligent songwriting ever.

What sorcery is this?!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

I'd probably be a softie here and just pick something obscure that would cause a minimal ripple. There are songs out there that I don't like, but if they get much play, it's because there are people who do like them, and they should be able to listen to their favored music.

This song ruined my life just a bit. Heard it on Beavis and Butthead.

One of Jack Johnston's earlier songs. They all grated on me from the first listen, but they also seemed to follow me everywhere.

No idea how it's called but the one that goes like "maya hi,maya ho, maya ha, maya ha ha"

I hate that song with a burning passion of thousand suns.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

I was thinking i can't think of a song, but yeah that would be kinda neat if it was just gone.
