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)

No one’s gonna say that marraiah carrey christmas song? Ok i’ll say it, tha marraiah carrey Christmas song.
Everyone in retail will worship you.
Then you’ll get all the remixes of Feliz Navidad instead.
At least they’re remixes with some fucking variation
I want the retail stores to play something with more gusto, like I Believe in Father Christmas (by Greg Lake, sounds a bit different than the name suggests)
Nah, there are a lot of retail songs waaayyyy more annoying than that one that would just take its place. At least that one has some talent involved lmao.
obligatory link to the Zalinki video
i listen to that all year
I will never forgive the Apple rep who came into our retail store and loaded up the store Homepod with A PLAYLIST OF SIXTY THREE DIFFERENT FUCKING RENDITIONS OF THAT CUNTING SONG and then locked it out so we couldn’t change it back to normal human music. Said it was his favourite song.
I made a complaint and never saw him again. I’ve never seen an entire store’s staff hate life more.
This is the way.
But then you’d ruin Christmas for the cyber goths… https://youtu.be/eJc6-DgaQa0?si=M1w4RWEBfHW1_l3v
The “oh no oh no” high pitched “song” from TikTok that plays from my mom’s phone when I’m about to sleep
Ask her to use headphones?
We don’t own any
That’s a shame, maybe ask her to turn it down a little or watch videos with subtitles then?
1-877-CARS-4KIDS
K.A.R.S CARS FOR KIDS
1-877-CARS 4 KIDS
DONATE YOUR CAR TODAY
runs screaming off a cliff, smiling through tears
K a r s cars for kids?
They’re kids, not English professors
Sorry, whenever I read the phone number 1 877 Kars for kids, it needs to be spelled incorrectly, just in case someone wanted to donate their car today. If they’re going to spell it wrong I’m the phone number it should be spelled wrong in the lyrics. I didn’t realize the op had spelled out the phone number correctly XD
Now accepting donations of land, buildings, and other forms of real estate!
Can I please donate the real estate this occupies in my brain.
1000%
You know all you’re donating to is to keep funding kids sitting in yeshivas so they can get indoctrinated to become Hasidic leeches off society. That’s where it actually goes.
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 story of Baby Shark is kind of interesting. It used to be a camp song in the 90s. It didn’t become ridiculously popular until the infamous YouTube video that everyone knows. Various people and institutions have tried to sue for ownership, but it was ruled public domain. Anyone can release their own version of Baby Shark if they want.
*motherduckers
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:
Damn! I was going to say American Pie but I think you’ve got the better answer but I don’t want to hear either of these songs ever again.
The Song That Doesn’t End—we’ll finally rescue all those people who started singing it not knowing what it was.
But they’ll continue singing forever, they just won’t know what they’re singing anymore.
I’d improvise one on the spot. just to prevent the erasure of others’ art. Nah, fuck that; Baby Shark can die.
4′33″. I hate that melody and would rather just listen to silence.
Same, I randomly hear it in my head way too often
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.
God Save the King/Queen wants a word.
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.
I love this song.
That was far the from the worst IMO, The 12 Days of Christmas played 3 times in a row by 3 different singers once, I almost quit on the spot.
“Last Christmas”
Definitely that one. Since I can select the radio station without taking the hands of the steering wheel, it is “next station” as soon as it starts.
My wife loves it, I hate it with passion.
It’s strange. It’s for me like All I Want for Christmas Is You by Mariah Carey.
The first time it’s played at Christmas time I get in the mood. The following times I want to throw out my radio.
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.
Peter Pan is a very weird movie. Peter himself is pretty questionable.
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.
It was also written to be performed at the end of a party when they were telling the guests they didn’t have to go home but they couldn’t stay there
this song is a perfect example of tone deafness where a person doesn’t take a few steps back to reread how their lyrics land in pretty much most scenarios it is going to be received . Particularly in situations at the time for gender and how consent was pretty much frowned upon as a form of slut shaming or that men don’t have to take ‘no’ as an answer.
Santa Baby is also pretty gross. “Hurry down my chimney tonight” …urm, okay…
Damn it is pretty pushy now that you mention it
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.
