I am sure that the German language sounds beautiful to the German people, the Russian language sounds beautiful to the Russians, the Indian language sounds beautiful to the Indian people and so on and so forth. I wish I could speak all these languages and learn something from their inner structure, from the idioms that they certainly contain and which are, in a way, bits and pieces of wisdom.
The people who pointed their fingers to a language saying that it sounds ugly didn't actually answer your question, because your question has no reasonable answer, but let you know what language(s) they don't like.

The worst sounding language that I have heard was some rare Eskimo language. Too bad I can't remember what it's called.
After that, Hebrew and German sound quite ugly to me too.
(no offense to anyone)

This is going to be very relative. I personally don't like listening to people speak Hebrew, even though it's closely related to Arabic. Arabic seems to flow much better in my opinion, much less sudden stops and breaks. Hebrew, to my ear, has a lot more "KH" sounds in it which makes it sound very abrupt...
But I'm sure there is beauty in all languages...

No language sounds ugly to me. I think all languages are beautiful in their own way. I speak five languages fluently, and three broken. and all of them sound beautiful to me. I would love to learn more!

I don't know if it sounds the ugliest, but for some reason hearing people speak French makes my skin crawl.

I'd have to say Spanish or French. French actually doesn't SOUND that bad to me, except that I took it my entire high school career and had been led to believe it was this vastly romantic language. It just ended up sounding like a bunch of "sophisticated" baby talk. I prefer Asiatic languages, like Japanese and Mandarin.

That is not fair to name German Ugly language. that's really sweet, but i dont like the way that it's spoken in Swiss.
and Spanish (in daily conversations, not in songs), makes me nervous, exactly like Dutch and Arabic.
