    These songs DRIVE ME CRAZY and I can't get to the radio soon enough to change the station!

    1. Squeeze Box-The Who
    2. Loving You-Teresa Carpio (aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhiiiiiiaaaaa!)
    3. Afternoon Delight-Starland Vocal Band
    4. Funky Nassau-The Beginning of the End (what kind of band name is that?)

    And Willie, I'll go with Muskrat Love, too!

    OK... at the risk of upsetting Soda ......

    Anything by U2. I think it best that I don't elaborate.
    I agree with Willie about Celine Dion, and I also include Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston in that (apologies to anyone who likes those women).
    Dum Dum Diddle and some other Abba songs with 'nursery rhyme' lyrics from their early albums (although bizarrely, Dum Dum Diddle is from my favourite Abba album, Arrival).

    There are a couple of songs by my favourite artists that I don't really care about, and don't really need to hear, but I wouldn't necessarily have used the term 'they drive me crazy'. These include:

    Better In The USA - Glenn Frey (What was he thinking)?
    Teenage Jail - Eagles (I listened to this yesterday. It is fairly pointless).
    Honey Pie - Beatles (I get annoyed when McCartney does his cutesy 20s pastiche stuff. I suppose most people would say Maxwell's Silver Hammer but that has a certain bizarre charm).
    Secondary Waltz - Mark Knopfler (Usually MK is capable of writing very quirky 'character' songs and making them believable. This one is about high school students being taught to dance by an ex military man. I don't get it.
    Listen To The Lion - Van Morrison (He bares his soul in this, but it is far too long).
    Tragedy - Bee Gees (I love them but the falsetto is done to death here).

    My Heart Will Go On - CELINE DION
    Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm - CRASH TEST DUMMIES
    The Final Countdown - Europe
    I Will Always Love You - Whitney Houston
    Life is live - Opus
    Lemon Tree - Fool's Garden
    ..... and many more!

    It's hilarious to see everyone's various tastes! For instance a lot of you can't stand Celine Dion or Whitney Houston (both of whom I love, vocally) and a lot of you love the Beatles, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, etc (all of whom I'm really not a fan of....although I'm getting a little more into Beatles stuff). We're a varied group with a really big favorite group in common

    Interesting...the only two songs I really like by Prince are 1999 and Little Red Corvette!
    In terms of driving me crazy (ie, can't turn it off quickly enough)--anything by Lady Gaga, but especially Poker Face and Paparazzi (sorry, fans.)
