I think Paul McCartney is the greatest rock songwriter of all time but 'Wonderful Christmastime' needs to be fired into something stronger than than the sun.
I don't "need" to hear Love Shack again, or frequently, but even with its high exposure at the time, I still like it occasionally.
I can understand people's resistance to it, certainly.
Oh man. that is an absolute bop and rightfully up for a couple of Grammy's. I blast that song.
I also get why people would hate it. I just dig it.
I considered posting clips, then I thought, uh, that's counterproductive. 
(A lot of of this is low-hanging fruit. )

The only redeeming thing I like about this song is when Jim Ross comes out to the ring to it.
In some cases, the duration of a song can turn it from tolerable to not-as-tolerable.
For me, this happens occasionally with ear-candy type stuff.
"Macarena" is catchy, it isn't a turn-the-station, but seems to run about one-third too long. Like, "I get it already!"
"Zombie," The Cranberries
"Don't Speak," No Doubt (band has several tracks I like, not this one)

I've got two of them.
The first one is Cher's Believe. (Do you believe in life after love? etc.) I despise that one because my soon to be ex-wife at the time, showed up at our first divorce hearing with her fiancé in tow (even though she was still married) and proceeded to tell me, as if I cared, that Believe was now the happy new couple's song.
The second one is Nothing's going to stop us Now by Starship. I hate that one, because that same ex-wife declared unilaterally that it was our song. I don't hate that one as much as the first, but it still brings up painful memories.
By the way, that same ex-wife just went through her 5th husband (I was her first) and is now single for the first time in a long time and thankfully, too old and ugly now to attract another man who's heart she would only end up breaking. She's "only" had 5 husbands. But she has shacked up with about half a dozen others for six months or longer in between husbands and sometimes during husbands.
She's a real piece of work, but our children think the sun rises and sets in her puckered old uranus. The stories I could tell them ... if I were the vindictive type.
