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)

The Twist, by Chubby Checker. Just to see if partnered dancing survives without it

[–] PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Chubby's kind of a weirdo anyway, I'm fine with that. "Twist Again" isn't gonna make much sense anymore, but it's no great loss.

That crying taylor swift song “she wears short skirts”

Idk the name but her singing is super annoying in that

Guns and roses' remake of knockin on heavens door. I love Bob Dylan and refuse to let it ruin the original!

Happy Birthday, just because it'll be interesting to see what we all choose to do instead of singing that song.

Jump, van Halen.

The whole of The Ramones catalogue. Basically just one song split into parts.

[–] DaBabyAteMaDingo@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Emily - Joanna Newsom. I don't hate it whatsoever but ever since listening to Joanna, this song in particular, I haven't achieved that musical high since. Maybe in this altered universe it can be created once more so I can feel that joy and wonderment again - if only for a moment.

Do I get to remember it? So then I can just make it again and say it's my song

[–] macrocarpa@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

There's a movie about that scenario with the Beatles. Called yesterday.

The Gummy Bear song. I have no proof, but I think it has some kind of brain dissolving frequency.

~~probably a hot take:~~

  • Turkey in the Straw
[–] growsomethinggood@reddthat.com 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Not that hot a take if you look up the original lyrics though

Delusions of a Savior by Slayer because telling Spotify to block it and never play it again means that Spotify will insert it into every other playlist

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Georgia Satellites - Keep Your Hands to Yourself

I CANNOT kill this off my Spotify country list.

Could I cut up my wish into just wiping parts of a few songs? Like the march tune from Tears of a Clown, the electronic watch alarm in Rock the Casbah, and the chopsticks part of Blinded by the Light.

This song. My freshman year roommate is probably responsible for a million of those plays and he ALWAYS played it at max volume on his laptop.

Either his mom filled out his roommate survey or the university didn't read them. That was a rough semester.

Kokomo. It's just the worst.
