    If you had the opportunity to torture somebody
    by playing the same song over and over and
    over for about 12 hours what would you pick
    and why.

    I'm thinkin that stupid cotton eyed joe song
    that was out a few years ago would be a good
    candidate...


By semillama on Tuesday, October 24, 2000 - 02:05 pm:

    The "Mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm" song would be ideal.


By Rhiannon on Tuesday, October 24, 2000 - 02:38 pm:

    I liked that song! Don't hurt me.

    **Anything by:

    Blink-182 and all the thousands of bands who sound like them.

    Steely Dan (pity me because my roommate loves them)

    **Almost any R&B song.

    **I know it's old, but Alanis Morrisette's "You Oughta Know."

    I am impervious to infinite repetitions of Cotton Eyed Joe. I don't know why.

    Any of that other crap would have me frothing at the mouth on the third one.

    I once brought someone to the brink of insanity with a combination of Spoonman and that Filter song... Hey man, nice shot. Is that what it's called? anyhow... yeah.

    That Barbi song... That would kill me.

    I'm pretty much impervious to repitition, because I just start tuning it out. My friend Hans has "The Annoying Music CD." I think "Special Kind of Place" off that CD would be the way to go.
    I've been listening to the Pi soundtrack over and over again.

    "da da da", anything by the spice girls, anything that's country, "it's a small world", the titanic song, and the stupid mix that z100 did of wonderful where they added a bunch of voices saying 'wonderful' over and over and over...glad i don't listen to z100 much anymore.

    I was once tortured with "The Streak" by Ray Stevens. I was working in the radio station that "broke" the song, and for awhile it was #1 ... which meant it came on about twice and hour and we were required to listen to the station all day...


By N.b. on Wednesday, October 25, 2000 - 10:57 pm:

    ...it was enough to make a person tear off their clothes and run screaming through the streets...

    there's nothing like being a DJ to burn you out on certain types of music. i've been a jock at a lot of different stations. the worst was when i worked at a country station. i hate country music. it was ALL torture. i've played tons of george jones records & hope i never hear another one.

    at a pop station, i had to continuously play "my baby takes the morning train" by sheena easton. horrifying. i never could stand sheena easton. that song is like nails on a chalkboard.

    but to REALLY torture somebody, there's always that late 60s/early 70s song that starts off "my name is michael, i've got a nickel" (i think the actual title is "playground in my mind", something like that)...remember that one?

    also: "run, joey, run", "billy, don't be a hero", "disco duck", "convoy" & "seasons in the sun". those songs run through my head more often than i care to admit. pure torture.

    we had joy we had fun we had jesus in the
    sun.

    she said i had a dirty mind

    i think its all in the interpretation.

    How could someone NOT like King Missile? Incredible.


By Dougie on Monday, April 9, 2001 - 10:21 am:

    That "Don't Worry Be Happy" song. That "I Will Take You Higher" song with that inane guitar mordent -- betcha the dude had to practice for a year before he nailed that lick.


By Da ka on Monday, September 20, 2004 - 09:57 pm:

    Skunk Anansie - Hedonism

    no way to survive more than two repetitions of this song.


By Rowlfe on Tuesday, September 21, 2004 - 12:04 am:

    Hamster dance


By Lapis on Tuesday, September 21, 2004 - 10:27 pm:

    almost any song where the singer sings through their nose.

    eugh.
