Anything by Ed Sheeran but especially Shape Of You. Can't believe it was the most popular song for a long while. It's so repetitive and grating, and the lyrics are cringe af at best, objectifying and creepy at worst.

Mr. Mac and Mr. McDaid weren’t convinced. “‘I’m in love with your body,’ on its own with no addendum, with nothing at the end or no preface, felt objectifying to me,” Mr. McDaid said. “It felt like that’s the thing — it’s just physical, it’s nothing else.”
yup
Mr. Mac gave the collaborators a challenge: to use the same four chords throughout, not switching to a major key for the chorus.
Being bland and repetitive was an intentional design decision. That's why I hate it more than anything else.
After about 90 minutes, they had recorded the complete song.
I agree that the song is obnoxious, but have you heard "the molecular shape of you" by Acapella Science? It's an incredibly good scientific parody of the song
