Ellie Goulding.
Had the misfortune to see a small part of a live set of hers once.
As someone on another forum accurately described it.......
`It was essentially an hour of being shouted at by a lovesick aerobics teacher`
Fkin terrible.

Much, if not all, of my music is played in my car.
Given that, and that my radio is hard-wired to BBC Radio 3 and my other choices are in the CD changer (old school 2007 Saab Aero), then I have to nominate my Off Switches to composers / pieces of music.
Some that easily spring to mind:-
Anything by Arnold Schoenberg
Anything by Aaron Copeland
Most of the works of Stravinsky
Most of the works of the Strauss family
Much of the work by Britten
Much of the work by Ravel
The final movement of Max Bruch's violin concerto
Beethoven's 5th

How awfully inconvenient! It must come as something of a shock every time you reach the full length of the cable and either your car comes to a sudden halt, or your car radio flies out through the back window. Is that why they it's called Aero?
Coldplay. I can see why some people would like them but I can not stand them.
There's a song with the lyrics 'oooh... ahhh... oooh... ahhh...' for about three verses and it always makes me laugh that he's written that and laughing all the way to the bank.
Speaking of laughing all the way to the bank Music Magpie gave me £2.50 for Ed Sheeran's album back in the day. Mugs.

99% of Rap/Grime/Drill/HipHop/DubStep etc. There are a few exceptions, such as the current hit “De Vuelta Pa’ La Vuelta” from Daddy Yankee & Marc Anthony, but the HipHop / Rap element is only a small part of this.
Anyone who uses Autotune. Why try to make a singing star out of someone who can’t sing??
So-called “R’n’B”. This used to mean Rhythm & Blues, but the latest version s bear no resemblance to Rhythm & Blues as I know it. (This makes me sound like an old git - I’m not even 50 yet)
Radio 3 & 4 are my main listening stations now, with everything else taken from my music collection so I manage to avoid most of my instant turn-offs without trying

I can’t see why people like them. Bland like shopping for clothes at Next. You can add Radiohead to that. Interchange Radioplay.
And U2 - yes I already did them but I hate those tossers so much they are in twice.
OVER SINGING aaaaaargh f
king no! Why? Warbling up and down on every word STOP IT! Actually you can add OVER PLAYING guitar solos. Self indulgent annoying whine, basically Steve Vai and any guitarist who models themself on him.
