Re: What "Classic" songs do you hate with a passion?

Frampton - Feel like we do.

 

[Deepest Blue]

Quite a few of the songs mentioned are hated because they're overplayed to fooking death and some goon of a DJ telling you that is an all time classic just makes it worse.

Love Kraftwerk but can't listen to "The Model" any more.

Also forgot to add anything by The La's or Cast.

Three that are constantly played on the oldies stations I listen to and when I hear them, I immediately switch stations

Maggie May - Rod Stewart
Boys of summer - Don Henley
You can call me Al - Paul Simon

Edit , make it four
Eye of the fucking tiger

Sweet Child of Mine. What a waste of a classic lick.

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

Can't think of any, just want to offer the guy who said Bill Withers a scrap in the car park.

 

[Tuearts right boot]

Most of Jason Mohammeds ' AMAZING RECORDS ' that he plays on BBC Wales. A sure fire cure for insomnia.

 

[Harlaching Sky Blue]

Its arguable if its a classic, but its certainly famous...but "Youll never walk alone" in any guise makes me want to sticks icepicks in my testicles

 

[Big Joe Corrigan]

The Final fucking Countdown, absolute shite.

The Final fucking Countdown, absolute shite.

Never has a song been less representative of a band. Europe have released a string of great albums that sound very lttle like Final Countdown.
That said I don't actually mind the song.

Gonna write a classic.
Gonna write it in an attic.
Babe, I’m an addict,
( what else rhymes with classic……. Well none of the above for a start)

Don't Stop Believin'.

I was still in "BagDad" in 1981. I was 18 when it got a revival in 2009 just as I was beginning university. As such, those first piano keys will always remind me of freshers week and the week long cycle of girls crying at being away from home, bouncers trying to pick up said girls, and lads called Eddie and Jordan in stripey fucking tops from Oxfordshire calling each other Zulu and talking about bants.

That was therapeutic.

 

[feelymcfeel]

Bohemian Rhapsody (most Queen songs actually, I really just can't stand Queen)
Hey Jude (same as above re The Beatles)
Wonderwall (as above re Oasis)
Sweet Child o' Mine
American Pie
Stairway to Heaven
Like a Virgin
Run to the Hills
Paranoid
Ace of Spades

Christ, there are loads. Loads by artists I really like too, like Maiden, Sabbath, and Motorhead.

 

[dickie davies]

Just had another couple on the radio that I despise

Thorn in my side - Eurythmics
I don't want to miss a thing - Aerosmith

Absolute shite

 

[roman totale]

Stairway to Heaven
Living on a Prayer
Born in the USA
Don’t Stop Believing

All shite and all unavoidable, unless you never listen to the radio.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Probably not in the classic class, but I can’t stand Destiny’s Child nor most of what is considered RnB since 1990.

It should be called neither R nor B.

 

[Gazza]

Layla - Single version brilliant
Layla - Extended version c/w piano solo - awful

I’ll take your word for it.
