Last Christmas is a close contender tho
The "oh no oh no" high pitched "song" from TikTok that plays from my mom's phone when I'm about to sleep

Baby Shark. The entire time that ducking song was making it's rounds through society, I managed to avoid it. I knew it was repetitive and awful, and through good fortune and luck, it missed me completely.
Then I watched the new season of Umbrella Academy. Those motherfuckers.
The US national anthem. People will stand around before sporting events knowing that they used to do something but are mystified they can't remember what.
Happy Birthday
Somebody just posted this image in another Ask and I thought it was relevant:
The Song That Doesn’t End—we’ll finally rescue all those people who started singing it not knowing what it was.
I’d improvise one on the spot. just to prevent the erasure of others’ art. Nah, fuck that; Baby Shark can die.
At first, I was going to pass on destroying music, but then I remembered the anger I feel any time I have to see Peter Pan because, in part, the fucking racist shit that is What Makes the Red Man Red. Maybe I could work out a deal to erase the entire movie...
Before anyone attempts to defend it with, "it was a product of the times", know that the play Peter Pan is based on was considered shockingly racist at the time and Disney's solution to that was to double down on the racism so that nobody would take it seriously.
Queen's Radio Ga-Ga so I won't have PTSD about it anymore. When I was 19, I worked on a cruise ship that was still in the final stages of construction and at one point they were testing the PA system by playing that song, on repeat, for seven whole fucking days.
Oh, probably this song or one like it:
Yes, it was a real song, published in London in 1900.
Because it's already starting again, "Last Christmas". Fuck that garbage piece of shit song that's ruining the lives of everyone that has to work in retail during Christmas.
They did. You're welcome.
Good point. If the wizard did this you also would never know that such a song existed. Hence your "worst song in the world" spot would be filled with a different song the instant the spell hits.
It shows how such categories as "the worst" and "the best" are only constructions of our mind.
Happy birthday song.
Now it's even more awkward as everyone must stare in silence in front of the cake 😈
Hello sorcerer. Please erase "Man, I feel like a woman" by Shania Twain. It annoys me anyway, but it not like it makes being a woman sound especially inspiring either ("Colour my hair, do what I dare" - woah, slow down there Shania!). Thanks.
So shall it be done.
"If I Could Turn Back Time" by Cher, thus proving to her for a fraction of a nanosecond that her premise was actually possible after all, before every trace of the tune ceases to exist.
The American national anthem, please.
It's such a terrible song, and it keeps getting sung in weird ways by bad singers. I swear, as a non-american I'm subjugated to it more often than all other national anthems combined, including my own.
I actually quite like Weezer, but goddamn that song drives me nuts for some reason I can't put my finger on. A close second is Bubbly - Colbie Caillat, in large part because of the line "I get the tingles in a silly place". It's such a deranged way to say you're horny.
Maybe the COPS theme song, cuz I think it did a lot to popularize the show and that was some mega-potent copaganda that did long-term damage.
Maybe Horst-Wessel-Lied, for similar reasons.
Never Gonna Give You Up just so it breaks the Internet.
Last Christmas by Wham!
I'm just a kid who's four Each day I grow some more I like exploring, I'm Caillou
So many things to do Each day is something new I'll share them with you, I'm Caillou
My world is turning Changing each day With mommy and daddy I'm finding my way Growing up is not so tough 'Cept when I've had enough But there's lots of fun stuff
I'm Caillou, Caillou Caillou, I'm Caillou
That's me!
The United States of America National Anthem.
Given the fact that your question has caused The Evil Song to get stuck in my head, Sorcerer, I feel you are obligated to erase "It's a Small World" from my mind and from existence.
Please and thank you.
Baby it’s cold outside.
Seems to be America’s favourite rape song played for the entire cold season.
I was under the impression that this is a misconception about the songs meaning.
At the time women would be expected to say no outright and go home. To say they have to leave, instead of having autonomy and being promiscuous.
So in the song the woman wants to stay but is following the societal expectation to say they need to leave and the man is giving her all the excuses she could use to explain why she didnt leave, so people wouldnt suspect her of staying over to have sex.
These days that expectation is not there so the song is interpreted in a different way and sounds super rapey.
To be clear. I am not advocating for this old way of thinking, nor am i saying i know the explanation i have given is true. I am only telling what i have heard and felt like to me that actually makes a lot of sense in the right context.
Basically, women wanted to be able to have sex with anyone they wanted, but people would look down on them for doing it. So, to avoid being ostracised, they would avoid situations like that.
But again. I may be wrong. I have just heard this explanation and wanted to share.
Jesse's Girl. My high school used it daily in an ad for some bullshit they wanted to sell, and my first 10 working years they had a radio on wherever I worked on one of three stations depending, all of which play that song at least (at least) once a day every day. (That's at least daily and sometimes twice a day exposure to that garbage song for 14 years straight for anyone counting.)
If I hear it come on I will leave the room, and I'll be back in 3:14. Idgaf where I am. If I have the aux (it won't be played, but if it somehow does) I'm changing it. If I hit the lotto I'm buying the rights so nobody can play it on the radio and taking it off streaming so I can lessen the likelihood of exposure. I'll put it for free on itunes or some shit and never strike pirates but for the love of god please don't play it near me!
Either the British or American national anthems, they're both pretentious as fuck and it'd be kinda interesting to see if something like that has knock on effects down the line.
Mr. Brightside by the killers.... fuck that song, fuck that song so much. My hatred of that song extends to everything else the killers do without ever hearing them
Just pick anything from 21 Pilots. I'd wipe them all out if I could, but deleting one is at least a step in the right direction.
