Don't look now, momma's got her boobs out...I swear to you I am not being inappropriate here...it really is a song and a catchy one.
I always sing it under my breath at work for days when it pops into my head...it just won't go away once it's there....

yes, that confused me - normally when people die they GO AWAY. No offence to Jacko, i'm sure he was just as great as every other grandeur deluded messed up pop star, but please dear and fluffy lord make it stop.
I have a range of songs that irritate me and they normally correspond quite closely to what is at the top of the charts or being used on too-oft' repeated adverts. But thankfully that group is vastly outnumbered by songs that I know very well, love to bits and can call to mind to drown out the aural irritant.
That being said, my favorite go-to song to annoy others is 'Get Out of my House' by Kate Bush - I have and infinite capacity for Kate Bush, but the bit where she starts braying like a donkey is usually too much for most people.

I'm currently jammed on a Three-Fer: Neil Diamond's Forever in Blue Jeans; Rita Coolidge's We're All Alone, and a vaudeville oldie called My Old Man Said Follow the Van, also known as " The Dilly-Dally Song". But at least I got rid of John Denver's Saturday Night in Toledo, Ohio...

There IS always the classic "Henry the VIII, I Am" by Herman's Hermits.
Keep singin' this over and over and over and over can really drive people batty.

The last time I went to Cedar Point (for those that don't know, it's an amusement park in Sandusky, Ohio) I ate at this restaurant called Johnny Rockets. Every five minutes or so (and I do mean every five) they would play "Love Shack" by The B-52s. Now I like that song a lot, but I couldn't listen to it for years afterwards. Thankfully, now it's okay to listen to again.

I've got to think a little longer about a fave song of mine that others may find annoying, but I have one that I find really annoying, especially as Radio 2 insists on playing it within 15 mins of me switching on the radio every day.
It is: Whitney Houston's How Will I Know.
After that it takes a mighty song to get it out of my head.
Now I don't like her music (I know a lot of people do) but the station could at least play another of her songs. She had more than one hit.
I love The Safety Dane song. Perfect cheesey record.

Well, at least it's not "I Will Always Love You"... be grateful for small mercies.

"Ceremony" by Joy Division.
It keeps coming up in an Absolut Vodka ad, and it gets stuck in my head.
Actually, I think they're using the New Order version, which is in a slightly higher register. Still, same song, almost the same band...
It's stuck in my head now, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.
