| Overplayed Songs Of 2007 & 2008
2007 & 2008 just seemed like the years of
overplayed
mainstream songs, so here are some I heard &
probably found
annoying. | 1 | Soulja Boy Crank That (Soulja Boy)
Crank That launched Soulja Boy into infamy with terribly catchy, terribly
produced, & all-around terrible music. He had little kids "singing" about
supermaning ho's (if you don't know what it is look it up). Go to hell Soulja
Boy. | 2 | Flo Rida Low
Another annoyingly catchy hip-hop song that mainstream loved for about a
month or 2 & hasn't been played nearly as since. It's not nearly as terrible
as Soulja Boy, but still made many cringe when they heard it, especially
when it was for the 100th time. In fact, he reminds me of an older, slightly
matured Soulja Boy. | 3 | Plain White Ts Hey There Deliah
Not that bad of a song, but after hearing it so many, I really started hating
it. Not here b/c it's bad, but b/c of it was way overplayed. | 4 | Linkin Park What I've Done
I kind of like Linkin Park, but after hearing this song about 100 times with it
being on the radio from the rock stations to the pop stations, it being on
Transformers, & being on commercials, I just about gave up completely on
the band. | 5 | Flo Rida In the Ayer
In the Ayer is another annoying hip-hop song by Flo Rida that sounds alot
like Low. If you don't know it, let me give you an idea "Oh hot dam
(censored version says ham :|)
This is my jam
Keep me partyin till the AM
Ya'll don't understand
Make me throw my hands in the ayer, a-ayer, ayer, a-ayer"
Was extremely popular for about a month, it died out quickly. Read the rest
of the lyrics & you might understand why I think modern rap has fallen to
being complete crap. | 6 | Rihanna Umbrella
So what, is song about love, sex, or companionship? Regardless, this song
extremely popular during 2007 for about 5 months. Personally, I don't like
this song, but it's better than alot of the stuff that's popular in pop. | 7 | Avril Lavigne Girlfriend
"Hey! Hey! You! You! I don't like your girlfriend! No way! No way! I think
you need a new one!"- that will be stuck in my generation's heads forever. | 8 | Katy Perry I Kissed A Girl
Honestly, I'd rather listen to this than alot of other pop, but it's been
overplayed so much that everybody in the U.S. probably know the chorus,
including my six year old brother :| | 9 | Metro Station Shake It
Shake what exactly? Oh ya little kids need to shake their butts for guys...
Anyways, Metro Station is one of the bands that both the "scene" and
mainstream groups. Well to be honest I hate it, and it has nothing to do
with Miley Cyrus's brother being in the band. | 10 | Flyleaf All Around Me
Another song by a band I like, but it was still way overplayed. All Around
Me is easily one of the weakest tracks on the self-titled album. Which just
goes to show. | 11 | Rihanna Please Don't Stop the Music
I don't know enough about this song to give a reason, but it was definitely
overplayed during mid-2008. | 12 | Soulja Boy Yahhh!
Another Soulja Boy song; Yahhh! is one of the worst, if not the worst, song
I have ever heard. It's like it's one big joke to him, showing he can make a
hit by simply shouting "Yahhh! Bi***! Yahhh!" multiple times. It lacks any
slightly good parts Crank That has (Crank That's horrible, but at least it's
sort of catchy). Luckily, Yahhh! never made it to being played as much as
Crank That though. If it had, I 'd have been better off wearing earplugs
everywhere I went. | 13 | Daughtry Home
Easily one of the most overplayed songs of 2007 (& 2006). Daughtry
already would've been big with his "poppy" arena-rock style, but the fact
that he was an American Idol finalist launched him even further up the
charts. Despite his success, he is almost never, maybe even never, played
anymore on the radio. | 14 | Stone Sour Through Glass
I love Stone Sour, I love this song, but still it was an overplayed song for
awhile. While the mainstream may not like it that much anymore, it's still a
great song & hasn't gotten "old" to me yet. | 15 | Paramore That's What You Get
Another band I like; That's What You Get was made huge not only by more
mature pop radio stations, but even Disney Channel Radio & video
countdown. I still like the band & the song's ok, but it's one of my least
favorites by them. | |

01.10.09 | yep; these are the ones that came into my head first, I'm sure there's more. | Poet
01.10.09 | YOU CRANK DAT SOULJA BOY. YOU!!!!
but HEY HEY YOU YOU I DONT LIKE YOUR GIRLFRIEND, although I KISSED A GIRL AND I LIKED IT. | MattRTS
01.10.09 | ^^
Exactly XD
| bastard
01.10.09 | most/all of these choices are obvious | Phantom
01.10.09 | 3, 8 & 15 ftw. 8 because it's catchy and Katy Perry gets extra points for being super hot.
The rest I pretty much can't stand. Especially Soulja Boy. | MattRTS
01.10.09 | [quote=bastard]most/all of these choices are obvious[/quote]
That's why I picked them. | ninjuice
01.10.09 | 15 is easily the best song on this list.
which doesn't really say much, actually. | Asiatic667
01.10.09 | I hate what I've done too, but I always used to watch the video clip with my siblings to see that one fat guy bit into a massive sandwich :D
shake it certainly sucks ,and the opening of stonesour "thru glass" sends me reeling, along with the rest of the horrible thing.
That's what you get is cool though, but pretty generic | BallsToTheWall
01.10.09 | The Never Back Down version of 1 is pretty cool actually. 6 rules, never tires out, 8 rules, 10 and 15 rules. 7 is...terrible. | Asiatic667
01.10.09 | There's actually a clip of Gerard Way singing Umbrella on youtube. For some reason | ThyCrossAwaits
01.10.09 | donde esta el Sweet Escape by Gwen Stefani? | wakeupdead
01.10.09 | list needs PARALYZER hands down most overplayed song of 2007-08 | Nagrarok
01.10.09 | I get great feelings of hatred everytime I hear 6,7,8 and 11. It makes me want to smash apart whatever's playing it. | Captain North
01.10.09 | Yeah, I'd say the reason you hate 'Shake It' would have to do with it being Metro Station. | AliW1993
01.10.09 | Every Rihanna single from Good Girl Gone Bad has been horribly overplayed, though I still don't mind Umbrella. | foreverendeared
01.10.09 | what wakeupdead said | MattRTS
01.10.09 | Captain North, I may hate them but that song was overplayed to hell. | Akko1
