Does anyone else do this?
Between myself and some of my friends, we've started a "what song would be on a loop in your personal version of hell?" conversation. It's usually a hideous combination of the song that you loathe, covered by the singer you most detest.

For example, my best mate would have Shirley Bassey singing "Stand by Me."

I'd hazard a guess that b3tard Nunnerfly would suggest possibly Katherine Jenkins covering "Walking on Sunshine".

Another, suggested by my old housemate was "Bohemian Rhapsody" sung as a duet by foetus faced x-factor rejects Eoghan Quigg and Ray Quinn.

And mine? Robbie Williams doing a medley of Bob Marley's Greatest Hits.

It's enough to make me want to end it all, if it wasn't for the smallest of chances that there is actually a hell and it's possible that the devil reads b3ta and this has given him an idea...

I like this idea
and after some brief thought, my personal hell would be:

Word Up (originally by Cameo), sung by Miley Cyrus.

Anything other than How Soon Is Now
by the bloody Smiths.

"Lady Marmalade" covered by Mika.
Both the song and the singer are kryptonite to me; the two combined would probably cause my brain to explode.

Hell
is having to listen to Cheryl Cole gurning and squawking her way through "Fight for This Love". As I work in an open-plan office where the radio is set firmly to Radio 2, I'm halfway to hell already.

When we've had the nuclear holocaust
And the only living things left on the planet are cockroaches and Davina McCall, there are two undisputable facts.

1. E4 will still be showing Friends.
2. That song will still be playing on Radio 2.

And it's stuck in my bastard head now. Aaaaargh.

Oh god...
The song would definitely be 'Frankie', my subconscious refuses to let me think of who'd be singing it...

Anything by brokeNYCDE. They are possibly the worst band I've ever heard.

Also, anything by Trivium. Self absorbed wankers.

Trivium
They're playing in Manchester.

I've never heard anything by them.

I've agreed to go.

I think that could have been a mistake.
