This ability of the sorcerer will wipe any one song of your choosing from the pages of history, as if it never existed! Gone from our reality. They were going to do it anyway, but they’re making you choose.

Which song would you pick?

(If you really can’t narrow it down to one, then try narrowing to three)

    The US national anthem. People will stand around before sporting events knowing that they used to do something but are mystified they can’t remember what.

    I’m a big big girl in a big big world. I fucking hate that song with every fiber of my being.

    Jesse’s Girl. My high school used it daily in an ad for some bullshit they wanted to sell, and my first 10 working years they had a radio on wherever I worked on one of three stations depending, all of which play that song at least (at least) once a day every day. (That’s at least daily and sometimes twice a day exposure to that garbage song for 14 years straight for anyone counting.)

    If I hear it come on I will leave the room, and I’ll be back in 3:14. Idgaf where I am. If I have the aux (it won’t be played, but if it somehow does) I’m changing it. If I hit the lotto I’m buying the rights so nobody can play it on the radio and taking it off streaming so I can lessen the likelihood of exposure. I’ll put it for free on itunes or some shit and never strike pirates but for the love of god please don’t play it near me!

    The American national anthem, please.

    It’s such a terrible song, and it keeps getting sung in weird ways by bad singers. I swear, as a non-american I’m subjugated to it more often than all other national anthems combined, including my own.

    Guns and roses’ remake of knockin on heavens door. I love Bob Dylan and refuse to let it ruin the original!

      Definitely that one. Since I can select the radio station without taking the hands of the steering wheel, it is “next station” as soon as it starts.

    At first, I was going to pass on destroying music, but then I remembered the anger I feel any time I have to see Peter Pan because, in part, the fucking racist shit that is What Makes the Red Man Red. Maybe I could work out a deal to erase the entire movie…

    Before anyone attempts to defend it with, “it was a product of the times”, know that the play Peter Pan is based on was considered shockingly racist at the time and Disney’s solution to that was to double down on the racism so that nobody would take it seriously.

    The “oh no oh no” high pitched “song” from TikTok that plays from my mom’s phone when I’m about to sleep

    What a total waste of incredible cosmic power! Tell me oh rotund and couch astride sorcerer; why focus on such shitty, spammy schools of magic?
