Played at weddings, funerals, Olympic ceremonies and even the annual New Year’s Eve celebrations in Times Square, John Lennon’s song “Imagine” has been the all-purpose anthem of sentimentality for 45 years.
But if you’re one of those people who secretly hates it, don’t worry — you’re not the only one.
Last weekend, British music fan Edward Carter and some friends were casually discussing songs they hated when he decided to extend the conversation to social media.

YES!!!!
The Communist national anthem.
The hipster version of “The Internationale.”
Touchy Feely Liberal mantra
It can’t be a NATIONAL anthem. Imagine there’s no countries, remember?!!!
One of the worst but don’t dismiss “Tiptoe Through the Tulips” out of hand.
I’d say Kung Fu Fighting.
Simple answer is yes
An argument could be made for Disco Duck,Feelings,You Light Up My Life,Muskrat Love,MacArthur’s Park,but the worst song ALL-TIME,IMHO, has to be We Are the World!
"And there's the cliff we'll throw Yoko from."
It’s very high on the Pomposity scale, but “MacArthur Park” tops out with Opacity.
Yoko looks like George Takei in drag.
Bingo - great tune, horrible lyrics
If only everyone would believe and act the way I do we could all get along.
Where is “Billy, Don’t Be a Hero” or Sweet Pea and Sugar Sugar?
Yes...yes it is.
I absolutely love the song, “Imagine.” Yes, I know it is about a socialist dystopia, and that the world it describes is truly hellish. Yet the melody and singing voice are so beautiful.
Like I do with many songs, I just listen without paying too much attention what the words actually say. That isn’t very difficult; most of the time I can’t make out the words anyway. Sometimes, I am surprised to see the lyrics of a song that I have known for years, since I may even sing along without being able to make out the words.
Like Led Zeppelin’s “Stairway to Heaven.” I still don’t know the words. But it has a beautiful melody.
Yes. It’s communism in a song without all of the blood, misery and dead bodies.
