I can't listen to Smoke on the Water-we used to live next door to a band that that was the ONLY song they knew. 24 hours a day, that was all I heard. AND THEY WERE AWFUL! So to this day, I still cringe whenever that song comes on.

My dad hates this one. He thinks it's horses in the background and not a record scratching.
It is a record scratching, isn't it?

I'm pretty sure it's not horses.
