aggiesjc Posted February 12, 2004 Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 This is too much fun! I will compile my own list after giving it some thought, and in the meantime, I'll greatly enjoy reading everybody's lists. Some of those songs already listed are HORRIBLE, and make me laugh for just that reason! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marvin Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 It'll take some time for me to compile a list of my 'hated' songs that consists of something more than "She Remembered", but in the meantime, there were some songs on the other 'hated' lists that I actually like:1. The Lion Sleeps Tonight2. Crimson & Clover3. Brown-Eyed Girl4. California Dreamin'5. Come on Eileen6. TragedySorry about that.Marvin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julie Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 My All-Time Most Hated Song Is: Say You, Say Me.......Lionel RitchieShould be called, "Gag You, Gag Me". I majored in English in college as did my best friend. We have studied great works of literature and still, neither one of us could understand what the heck this song was trying to say!!YUCK!!!!---Julie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aggiesjc Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 Here's one of my most hated, for a start: "What I Am" by Edie Brickell. I'll list more as I think of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Cartmill Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 Gord, "Tragedy" by the BeeGees is a decent composition. But by that time, even the true BeeGees fans like me had had enough with the screeching falsetto vocals. "Tragedy" was the last straw for me. The Gibb Bros. turned up that falsetto a couple of notes higher and notches louder on that song. The neighborhood dogs were barking. Kitchen glasses and windows were shattering...It was just falsetto overkill. Soon after that the BeeGees had to go into hiding and write great songs for other artist for 6-7 years (Streisand, Warwick, Rogers, Parton, A. Gibb...), till they made a really good comeback CD in 1986...with much less falsetto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Cartmill Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 Julie and Aggie, Definitely add your two songs to my list! Along with Ritchie's "Lady" and "Stuck On You" and "Three Times A Lady". Although I like Buckwheat's interpretation of "Three Times..." on Saturday Night Live back in the 80's.

marvin Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 Everyone's "hated" list is turning out to be my "favourite" list! I think "What I Am" is brilliant - especially the work done by the musicians (drums and bassist) on the song. And, I think "Three times A Lady" is beautiful. Oh well, one man's gold...Marvin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darlene Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 The song I hate most in the world is Van Morrison's "TB sheets." Absolutely disgusting.I hope everyone in the world forgot it ever existed, (until I brought it up).I liked "Brown Eyed Girl" though. Of course, I was young and stupid then. haha.I agree with Feelings--ugh. Also in the same boat, "Traces." I hate "Hot Pants" by James Brown. Like, there's nothing going on except him yelling in a drug induced haze every once in a while.Some of your lists are fantastic. Bernie, The Macarena sounds pretty good if you're very drunk and you're trying to do it very fast. --Darlene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew C. Clark Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 I like the song "Good Times" by Edie Brickell from 1994 (with the late Barry White talking on the bridge of the song). Good Times, Bad Times give me some of that... Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuliaD Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 I'm sure I could come up with quite the long list if I really thought about it, but right off the bat, Melanie's "I've got a brand new pair of roller skates", Maria Muldar's "Midnight at the oasis", ANY version of "Lean on me", and Sinead O'Connor's "Nothing Compares 2 U"... also any rap, and anything by Celine Dion... and other than Macarthur Park, I agree with Bernie's list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aggiesjc Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 I know several regulars here have mentioned Michael Jackson's talents, but I have to list as some of my most hated songs any of those in which Jacko shrieks or grunts (actually, I can't think of any he's made since he was 10 years old in which he doesn't shriek or grunt).Jennifer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvin Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 When "Midnight At the Oasis" first came out in 1973 (or whatever year it was), I hated the song. Now over the years I grown to appreciate the smooth jazziness and effortless playing of the musicians. And as far as "Brand New Key" goes, check out Deanna Carter's version. Very nicely done - even if you hate the song.Marvin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aggiesjc Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 "Jack and Diane" (I think that's what it's called, but even if not, they're the main characters in this repelling song) by John Cougar or Mellencamp or whatever he calls himself.

JuliaD Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 Bahoo! I love Bette Davis Eyes. And I like One Night in Bangkok too, tho I guess the reason I like it is I danced onstage to it, didn't just sit and listen to it, so when I hear it, in my head, I'm dancin' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Cartmill Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 "Midnight at the Oasis" and "Bette Davis Eyes" would also be on my growing cringe list. Marvin, the music on "What I Am" is good. Edie has a good voice. But those repetitive STUPID LYRICS and her vocal style on that song are just BAD BAD BAD!
