The Top Ten
1 Before You Go - Lewis Capaldi

Who cares if he's played too much? He has an amazing voice and is probably better than all of you haters.

Lewis Capaldi's songs are better than practically everyone else I listen to, other than Adele and sometimes Imagine Dragons (depends on the song). Before You Go, Someone You Loved, Hollywood, Hold Me While You Wait, Forever, and Bruises are probably his best songs.

All of y'all are hating on him? He may not have the looks, and if you're judging him by his looks, that's just awful. Lewis is better than Ariana Grande, Maroon 5 (not by a whole ton), definitely Doja Cat, and even Harry Styles, which is sort of impressive.

Anyway, I think y'all should stop hating on him even if his songs are played too often. And guess what? I will help you with that! There's this thing called an OFF switch on the radio. Plus, you can buy an Alexa so all you haters don't have to listen to him as much as the radio does.

Be kind and respect that he actually has an amazing voice that's better than plenty of other singers. Plus, even if he does autotune his voice three octaves, he still sounds amazing in actual life. Please stop hating.

2 Blinding Lights - The Weeknd

This song may be overplayed, but it's so damn catchy that I never get tired of it even after 1,000+ listens, which is rare for a song this overplayed.

Though this song is overplayed, I still love it. The Weeknd is awesome!

This is pretty overplayed, I'll admit. It's still a great song, though, with '80s vibes.

3 Say So - Doja Cat

This song isn't that overplayed now, but boy was it ever in the spring.

She is basically a more annoying version of Cardi B.

I like this song, but it is severely overplayed.

4 Memories - Maroon 5

Remember when we all were saying that Maroon 5 songs were really just Adam Levine songs? Well, it's the same thing here, except now the music video clearly proves that point.

At least "Girls Like You" was kinda catchy. This, on the other hand, is one of the most lifeless songs to hit the radio.

I can't help but think if some new singer sang this song, it wouldn't even be half as popular. Maroon 5 can get away with making basic songs like this because they've reached a point where they don't have to try to be creative anymore. They can play it safe and shove out these generic songs that people will eat up till it's overplayed, as they've established a loyal fan base.

5 Someone You Loved - Lewis Capaldi

Don't get me started on how overplayed this dreadful song is. Why is he straining his vocals like that?

I liked this song at first, but then I grew sick of it because of the overplay treatment it got.

VERY overplayed. I liked it at first, but it just got too overplayed.

6 Circles - Post Malone

This, along with Someone You Loved and Lose You to Love Me, are so overplayed!

I like this, but it's overplayed.

7 Break My Heart - Dua Lipa

This and Before You Go are why I don't listen to the radio as much as I used to.

Awesome song, but it is very overplayed.

Gets annoying after like three times.

8 Watermelon Sugar - Harry Styles

My God, I respect Harry Styles even if I hate his music, but this song is annoying. Especially when your mom plays this 15 times a week in the car.

Number 6? This should be number 1! It's been shoved down our throats all year!

This song is good, but it feels like it gets played every ten songs.

9 Don't Start Now - Dua Lipa

This is a pretty good song, although it gets played a lot. It's one of the better songs on this list, along with Circles.

This is overplayed, but I still love it. Every time it comes on, I start dancing.

10 I Hope - Gabby Barrett

Ah, "Hate Me 2.0," except for the fact that this is even worse than "Hate Me."

This is what the radio decided to give tons of exposure and airplay to for months, and it possibly still is happening today. (I haven't listened to my normal station in some time, so I don't know.)

The worst part is it doesn't have much of a basis. Nearly no one is buying or streaming this song, but radio stations decided they must want to hear it anyway.

This song plays every 10 or so songs on my local radio station. So annoying!

The Contenders
11 Savage Love - Jason Derulo

At least Break My Heart is somewhat enjoyable. This song is so annoying, get it out of my head. When I heard pop music was getting better in 2020, this isn't what I meant. Just stop playing it everywhere, please.

I have a feeling that this is the next big radio hit. It's really starting to climb in airplay.

Most overplayed song of 2020. Terrible, terrible, terrible, and annoying.

12 Dance Monkey - Tones and I

It just goes to show that even the more innocent songs of today can be quite hateable. Decent inspired production, but insanely intolerable vocals to keep listening to.

Somehow this became one of the most popular songs because it sounds different, I guess? I don't know who thought overplaying it was a good idea.

This song really does hurt my ears. Every time I hear this on the radio or elsewhere, it makes me want to throw something at the radio. It's honestly that awful.

Probably one of the absolute worst songs I have ever heard.

13 Intentions - Justin Bieber

My God, this song is the most annoying, in my opinion, worse than Senorita or Watermelon Sugar.

Pretty bad too. I said on Yummy that the songs were awful in this album. Pretty bad and nothing special.

14 Senorita - Shawn Mendes & Camila Cabello

To be honest, it is pretty decent. Still, very overplayed, though I will admit it is barely ever on the radio anymore.

It just sounds like another generic love song.

Pretty decent song but overplayed and was #1 for too long. Both singers are more talented than this.

15 Rain on Me - Lady Gaga

I added this song to this list when I didn't like it. Now I can't get enough of it!

My goodness, this song isn't bad, but it's so repetitive and it gets annoying after the first time.

16 Hot Girl Bummer - Blackbear
17 Good as Hell - Lizzo

A four-year-old song now all of a sudden being overplayed?! Stop pushing these talentless artists in our faces. It's obvious they're spending a lot of money on radio stations playing this garbage all the time.

18 Rockstar - Dababy
19 Yummy - Justin Bieber
20 Roxanne - Arizona Zervas
21 No Guidance - Chris Brown
22 Lose You to Love Me - Selena Gomez

This song is terrible. I miss when she was with The Scene. She had better music back then.

I like this song, but it's severely overplayed.

One of the most overplayed songs of all time.

23 Baby Shark - Pinkfong
24 Can't Stop the Feeling - Justin Timberlake

More like 2016. Still annoying that it got overplayed, though.

25 All I Want for Christmas is You - Mariah Carey

Uhh... this song is only overplayed when Christmas music takes over the radio.
