What Songs Do You Rush to Switch the Sound Off?

[Neeranam]

For me, I have nearly had an accident trying to NOT hear Phil Collins when the song came on the radio. I can't listen to this totally untalented guy. The newer Genesis, goes without saying why.

 

Also, anything by CCR or Michael Learns to Rock or Scorpions -  too may forced feeding when hanging out in Bangkok bars in the 90s. 

 

Also, Everybody wants to rule the world by Tear for Fears or something, nightmare video. 

 

XTC, especially one about Nigel

 

Michael Buble

 

Def Leppard 

 

Rush

 

K-Pop

 

Reggeton

 

Job2Do

Untalented ????

 

"150 million records !!

He has sold over 150 million records worldwide, won multiple Grammy and Academy Awards, and been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. "

 

Looks like your in the minority on that one. Each to their own I guess.Cant please all the people all the time.

In general I don't. Most of my music is from Amazon Music and I just leave it set to one of several channels which just play new music. I get bored with listening to old music unless it's a remix (not a remaster). I find that newer music recordings have a lot more clarity and presence than old music as well, especially at hi-res..

Mark E Smith was great and never like many others.

Morrisey is great too, and slagged of others too.

Living on a Prayer - I'd rather eat glass shards than listen to this sh ite. 

 

Smooth - The fact that radio stations overplayed this song so much is a hate crime. 

 

Shake it Off - Um, Turn it Off.

 

Season's in the Sun - Terry Jacks is the main reason 1974 sucked. 

 

Anything by Captain and Tennille and/or Neil Sedaka.

YMCA

 

That reminds me of the time when I was in a bar and the guy on the next table told me that now he will show the girls how to dance. And then he convinced the DJ to play YMCA.

I think I never paid my bill faster than at that occasion.

I have mixed emotion when I hear this one -  Every Saturday night when my folks had friends round. 

I liked Season in the Sun, had the TOTP 1974 Album.

In general, yes. But you just made me go play Ma Baker really loud.

[UWEB]

All this electronic Rubbish, it's nothing else then acoustic environmental pollution.

[Ludzilla]

Zombie from cranberries

[Trippy]

Anything rap or hip hop gets turned off immediately, it gives me a headache. 

[2long]

ANYthing from Simply Ginger, especially the Stars album. The only reason I haven't had killed 'taken care of' is because then the radio stations would play his 'hits' for a week or more afterwards!

[NativeBob]

Ted Nugent - great musician but real a**hole in person

Beatles - overrated girls band

Scorpions - Twisted Sisters from Octoberfest

Bee Gees - man can't sing like that unless his cohones are missing (not true, just really freaky)

Mahavishnu Band - too wierd to listen

Van Der Graff Generator - pretended to love them because everybody around were crazy about this band

%rap% - too angry, pitbull/AST kind anger

[KannikaP]
