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

[ColinBellsjockstrap]

Born in the USA, Born in the USA. Born in the USA, Born in the USA, Born in the USA, Born in the USA...........Did he run out of ideas?

Born in the USA, Born in the USA. Born in the USA, Born in the USA, Born in the USA, Born in the USA...........Did he run out of ideas?

Always found it amusing that a lot of Americans haven’t bothered to read the lyrics and seem to think it’s a suitable anthem for them though!

 

[chesterbells]

The Scottish one about going for a walk.

The one where everybody used to take it literally and sit down on the dancefloor, so funny.

The whiny one about everybody hurting. FRO.

 

[DenisHasDoneIt]

Sweet Dreams Eurythmics will be on Satan’s Jukebox 24/7 for me if I don’t buck my ideas up. And when I plead that I’ve had enough, Old Nick will put on ‘Sultans of Swing’.

 

[SCEtoAUX]

Brown Eyed Girl - Van Morrison
Leyla - Derek and the Dominos
Red Red Wine - UB40 version

 

[I'm With Stupid]

Sweet fucking Carobastardline.

Why has it turned into the sing along anthem at every live event in this country?

Stop singing it!!!!

Annoying as fuck, but still not a patch on that Hey Baby song that was constantly being sung a few years (or 15) ago.

 

[mancity2012_eamo]

All Along the Watchtower by Hendrix.
In fact anything by Hendrix.

Now go and have a long hard look at yourself in the mirror.
Reflect on what you said.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Annoying as fuck, but still not a patch on that Hey Baby song that was constantly being sung a few years (or 15) ago.

I was just linking those in my head.

Peter Kay made Amarillo vastly more popular than it should have been too.

 

[BrianW]

Merry Christmas Everybody by Slade.

It turns me into a homicidal maniac every time it comes on. (And we are just approaching the time when it is played in every fucking supermarket.)

 

[journolud]

Imagine. Mawkish shite. I may have said that in 2013 or whenever this thread first appeared. If I didn’t I should have done. It was shit then and it’s shit now

 

[Ballymagash Blue]

A Whiter Shade of Pale. Depressing muck. (And favourite song of mass murderer, Martin McGuinness!)

 

[Gareth Barry Conlon]

Sit Down by James. The re-recorded version, that is. Cheesy as fuck. the original Rough Trade release is good, though.

 

[Xhavenjoe]

A Whiter Shade of Pale. Depressing muck. (And favourite song of mass murderer, Martin McGuinness!)

One of the greatest songs of all time.

 

[Xhavenjoe]

Gonna write a classic.
Gonna write it in an attic.
Babe, I’m an addict,

You mightnt like it but Dion Dublin has it in his top 5.

Now go and have a long hard look at yourself in the mirror.
