Songs You Never Want to Hear Again

[Trilliam]

Anything by the Beatles.

And Wings.

Now THAT's fighting talk.

I've heard enough "Wings" music since 1973 to last me a lifetime

Anything by the Beatles.

I'm with you on that one. I couldn't think of anything until I hit this post. Sorry, I really can't get excited about the Beatles.

 

[Australis]

Well, never been a huge fan, but they do have some excellent songs, and popular music would be vastly different, and maybe not as exciting, without them.

 

[Orac Zen]

Heard another prime candidate yesterday in the supermarket - "Electric Dreams". I wanted to dump the shopping and flee.

 

[PlainSimpleJoel]

And I agree with EVERYTHING on this page above, especially boy bands, 4 Non Blondes and Barbie Girl.

I'd add Nickelback, Kenny G, any nu metal and most hip hop artists.

 

[Australis]

^ with nu metal, you mean the growling vocals? NEVER wanted to hear them in the first place.

Hey, you punks! Get off my lawn!

(I'm sounding older every day...)

 

[Roshi]

There are many among you who deserve to die with fire, the OP included!

Infidels!



Edit: It was a quote from a journalist (not your co-worker, Orac ) who said once "AC/DC made ten albums that sound the same". Angus Young replied "False, we did eleven albums that sound the same!"

I feel the same, about Metal and most rap/hip hop.

I'm only 19, but I get called an "old man" all the time.

 

[SPOCKED]

"She's One in a Million Girls"...I hate this song, why would I lie?

She's A Beauty by the Tubes?? Belongs in the Louvre for classic awesome. Plus I saw them perform it live with girls in bikinis chasing a bunch of ETs around the stage, so there

Yep them. Thankfully a lot of them I don't hear, as I only listen to one station through living in many cities in Australia, but after around 15 years of listening to them. They are the still best station as fat as I am concerned in Newcastle.

 

[Zulu Romeo]

Heard another prime candidate yesterday in the supermarket - "Electric Dreams". I wanted to dump the shopping and flee.

I, on the other hand, can NEVER get enough of that song.

 

[Orac Zen]

Eh, to each their own. However tasteless.

Whoever said it first, it's spot-on. IMO, anyway.

Time to move across to ABC Local radio (702 in Syd), Radio National or ABC News radio (630 in Syd).

I'm quite happy with listening to my itunes collection when I want to listen to music. Only time (well most of the time) I listen to triple j is in the morning.

 

[John Picard]

Here is an obvious one:

"I Will Always Love You" was originally sung by Dolly Parton

That reminds me--I need to buy a new iPod Nano. 4GB just isn't cutting it any more.

And the operative word would be SUNG. Dolly can sing. Whitney just sort of yells.

 

[Neeka Keet]

Whitney Houston didn't yell in that song.

 

[Capn Flukie]

I just realized I don't even OWN a radio, now I know why!

 

[Ruaidhri]

Afternoon Delight...

I worked a job where someone else always had the radio tuned to a station that played this song every two hours. The work was in a clean room with a lot of chemicals. Every time the song would come on I would wonder what it would be like to breathe in some of the cyanide dust we used to mix a bath for our 2nd stage resistor production.
