Forthcoming?

I highly doubt that I have the traffic to pull something like this off, but we all have to dream big! Many have noted that I have a tendency to listen to (possibly enjoy?) a variety of musics that could be described as Most Annoying Song Ever. Can this be measured quantitatively? It sure can, with the most democratic device devised by man.
Single-elimination tournament of champions. 16 songs enter and one leaves with the crown. One round per week would give me enough blogfuel for close to four months. I doubt that even my devoted readership would stay with me for that long. What's the answer then, two battels per week? Half week battels?

Furthurmore, I need nominations. I have plenty of the spots filled already but need an even 16. Lastly, how to seed? Should irritation of academic precision be placed first round against maddening radio drivel, or be placed for a likely final? I'll think about all these myself but multiply in comments with nominations and suggestions.

Well, ever is a long time you realize, but if I have to pick it would be "Teen Angel" By Mark Dinning from 1960. Really hated it the first time I heard it. Makes me cringe just thinking about it. Ick.

I think I have the winner. It's that Austin Powers song that Ludacris (sp?) did. I'm pretty sure it was him. You know the one I'm talking about, right? The one that sits on the dominant chord for 4 minutes. Also, its annoyance is enhanced by the fact that not only is it a jizzbucket of a song, but it's produced by quincy jones, who's reputation is forever tarnished because of that song.
