The Outfield: "Your Love"!

reply

Hello, I Love You - The Doors
anything after Roger Waters left, except "What Do You Want From Me?" by Pink Floyd
anything by Chicago with David Foster as "producer".

I also don't like "Start Me Up". "Hey Jude" is overrated, and the last 4 minutes are shit. It's all a stunt so they have the longest #1 hit (since someone just did it - Paul wants it, TOO!)

I can't stand a lot of songs by bands I like, but it's not usually a song the band is known for, but is usually a Top 10 single. I can't stand "Lady Madonna" or "Hello, Goodbye".. I don't like the song, "Get Back" and really don't like "Let It Be", which was the first song my band did in middle school. Ugh... And we once played it twice.

"Hello, I Love You" is truly an awful song.

reply

Yet, it's one of their two #1 hit songs... The producer pushed for it after his 12-yr old son liked it. Base.

"Waiting For The Sun" is the only Doors album to go to #1... Their first was stuck at #2 with The Beatles' overrated Pepper.

Do you like We Can Work it Out, You've Got to Hide Your Love Away, Come Together, Run For Your Life, Ticket To Ride and Yellow Submarine?

reply

I can't stand "Yellow Submarine"
"Come Together" is one of my favorite songs.

reply

Desperado - Eagles

reply

don't go breaking my heart - elton john
heartlight - neil diamond

reply

For years I thought Neil Diamond was Canadian.

reply

You Got Another thing Coming - Judas Priest
No One Like You - Scorpions
Sober - Tool
Enter Sandman - Metalica (they ripped this off Excel anyhow)


I don't pay much attention to lyrics as I rarely understand them (and when I do, more often than not they end up spoiling the song for me). So these critiques are based on sound alone.

Beastie Boys - (You Gotta) Fight For Your Right (To Party)

reply

I like that one, but it's pretty cheesy.

reply

I believe it was meant to be cheesy.

It was a parody of the silly hair bands back in the 80s.

reply

I hope so because no real song should be that cheesy.

reply

R.E.M - bang and blame

reply

I know I have mentioned this one before in another thread, but...
I like a lot of songs from ABBA, but I truly hate "The Winner Takes It All".

reply

I hate "Waterloo."
