8 Songs that have been ruined by overplaying

Posted on by Kip Hakes

1 – Toploader – Dancing in the Moonlight

OH MY GOD! This is the DADDY of overplayed songs, those opening twinkly bars instantly fill me with dread, and cast me straight back to the year 2000 where this song was seemingly on EVERY SINGLE DAY. What once started out as a charming soft rock / pop song is an evil ear worm etched into the soul of music history FOREVER. Make it stop.

    I’m so with you on the Clean Bandit track. I had it on a running playlist earlier in the year and eventually couldn’t listen to it without thinking about ready meals (kind of annoying when I was trying to exercise). The Toploader one makes me think of Jamie Oliver for some reason. Was it in an ad of his or a TV prog he did? All very annoying anyway.
