Shel Silverstien, Tiny Tim, & Yoko Ono. Oh yea Minnie Pearl too.
Tiny Tim.
Any of it :-)
Surprise of all surprises, they never play a lovely concerto or opera. They play ghetto “music”.
Why is it that the worse the music the louder it is played. If a car goes by playing music loud enough to rattle the windows, guaranteed not to be Mozart.
Many excellent suggestions here. I would throw in “If” by Bread, and “Honey” by Bobby Goldsboro.
“Rocky” by Austin Roberts (NOT to be confused with the movie theme) is amazingly awful. “D.O.A.” by Bloodrock (the long version) might drive you crazy at the same time. In context, you could finish up with “Total Eclipse of the Heart” (the original) and Elton John’s 8 minute disco verison of Johnny B. Goode. Heck the whole Elton John “Victim of Love” album is worth a go.
Many of these should be findable on Youtube if you need to sample.
OMG.... YOU MUST PLAY THE SINGING NUNS!!!

I actually enjoy their singing and we had a co-worker that played very obnoxious music- I played the nuns and they shut him up :):)
Oooh, yeah! How about the Wicked Tinkers?!
I had those same neighbors. Keep in mind they have impaired their hearing so whatever you play, you will have to rachet up the volume louder than theirs.
Classical music is great, they will love Vivaldi’s 4 seasons.
Even better, blast talk radio at them: Limbaugh, Hannit, Levin, maybe even some Savage to really make them go off.
She just wants them to turn the boom box down, not commit suicide! LOL!
I love Flogging Molly!
I’m 50 years old. My teenaged neice turned me on to them.
Weird, huh?
Candyland by Sammie Davis, gets ‘em every time.
No if you really wanted them to commit suicide she could have recommend Lambchops song:
This is the song that never ends
yes it goes on and on my friends
some people started singing, not knowing what it was,
and they’ll continue singing it forever just because...
it the song that never ENDS
(just put on repeat and place earplugs in ears, or sign along...)
I know a couple people I would sing for five minutes who would either kill me or themselves (it’s a fun experiment to which they do :D)
Also sesame street :D. Me and friend could sing that all day, (we occasionally did during our lunch period)
Directional speakers.
Too cool.
Doesn’t surprise me, I actually thought that their music would appeal more towards older people when I listened to it (it’s my roommates). I don’t know if I like them or not... I haven’t listened enough.
Duane Eddy. It will drive them crazy.
Or go with other "period" music - eg. 70s, 80s, maybe even, gasp, disco. Or you could go a## kickin' country such as Trace Adkins or Toby Kieth. Or go the other way, maybe get the soundtrack to "The L Word" or a bunch of chic bands. For some reason, my wife used to like "The Indigo Girls" - I always referred to them as "angry young women" but I digress...
Here’s some ‘oldies but goodies’ (just some of my favorites) that you might enjoy, and will most likely really irritate your antagonists:
Instrumentals (most by The Ventures):
Rebel Rouser
Raunchy
Let There Be Drums
HonkyTonk
Guitar Boogie Shuffle
Wabash Cannonball
Wipeout
Apache
Pipeline
Walk Don’t Run
Midnight In Moscow
Ghost Riders In The Sky
Peter Gunn
Mission Impossible
Hawaii Five O
Sleepwalk
Vocals:
Long Cool Woman In A Black Dress
Georgia (Ray Charles version)
You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin’ (Righteous Brothers)
Unchained Melody (Righteous Brothers)
La Bamba (Ritchie Valens)
Roll Over Beethoven (Chuck Berry)
Rock & Roll Music (Chuck Berry)
[We’re Gonna] Rock Around the Clock (Bill Haley)
Agree.
What about:
starting with Roberta Flack: “Set the Night to Music” then move to
Village People: Start with “YMCA” and go right into “In the Navy”
Then move right into ZZ Top “Sharp Dressed Man” then immediately mix it up with Phil Collins “Groovy Kind of Love”
Just when it looks like they are about to have a seizure, hit them hard with the Debbie Gibson “Electric Youth”, then throw in the Bee Gees “Number Ones”, the entire album.
By this time, they’ll be rolling on the street like they just got stun gunned by a SWAT team, hit them with Michael Johnson’s “Bluer than Blue”.
It’s important to end on a good note, so switch to Grand Funk Railroad’s “We’re an American Band” or Norm Greenbaum’s “Spirit in the Sky”.
If that doesn’t work, consider moving.
