Worst song to play at a bar

What's the worst song to play on a jukebox at a bar. My vote is Celine Dion's my heart will go on.

    I'm actually surprised that's on a jukebox. I'm tempted to disallow it on the grounds it wouldn't actually believe it would be on a jukebox, but if it's apparently on one....

    But I've never heard it at a bar.

    if its not on the jukebox, it can be requested to be added. it might take a certain number of requests for it to actually appear, but thats how most random songs end up on the jukeboxes. i can get I'll Back You Up on a jukebox if i tried hard enough. theres another one that would be terrible to play at a bar.

    I'm talking songs that are regularly on a jukebox. A la "In The Arms Of An Angel" or anything from Sinead O'Connor.

    IBYU has no chance of ever being on a jukebox, realistically.

    Re: Worst song to play at a bar

    Achy Breaky Heart, Love Shack, Funky Town, Celine Dion's My Heart Will Go On, and Sinead O'Connor are probably top 5 right now. Gonna be hard to crack that list.

    Personally, I hate Sweet Caroline but lots of people love it for some reason. In The Arms Of An Angel isn't likely to be on a jukebox at a bar. Never Gonna Give You Up is an awesome troll song and people would sing along to it and love the 3.5 minutes it's on.

    Oh, and we're not counting any Christmas carol. That's a cheap answer. Easy win with any of those. Have A Holly Jolly Christmas would cause mass casualties.

    Worst song to play at a bar

    Some redneck played three straight Nickelback songs at a bar I was in a couple months back. I can't think of anything worse than that. Everyone in the bar was like WTF is this shit?!?!?!

    I dont mind most songs, even if theyre cheesy as long as its a well known enough song where most people can at least sing the words. That said, please please dont play:

    1. American pie...it.goes.on.forever.
    2. Dont play multiple songs of the same band in a row.
    3. The eagles. I fuckin hate the eagles, man.

    Sacrilege!

    Somehow the song The Weight always seems to get played at bars when I'm there. Maybe it's a Texas thing. I dunno, I hate that song though. I've heard so many bad covers of it I can't listen to it anymore.

    you guys know that most of the jukeboxes in bars nowadays are those digital ones, right? And they have access to basically every song by any popular or semi-popular artist from 1960 - present
