Don't Worry, Be Happy - Bobby McFerrin After that, anything by one of those Bubble-Gum-Boy-Bands, (98 degrees, Backstreet Boys, etc...) it don't get much worse than that!  |

LOL...this one is EASY....gotta be 'Hey Jude'. Nope, not the one by John Lennon and the Beatles, but the cover done by the King, Elvis Presley. This version just downright sucks!!! |

I know I'm gonna get a lot of flack for this but there are 2 that I absolutely abhor. One is a Charlie Daniels tune...The Devil Went Down To Georgia and the other is Sweet Home Alabama. A few years ago these songs didn't bother me but when I was still in the restaurant biz those 2 songs were played incessantly!! If they didn't make so much money for that little jukebox I would have cheerfully taken them out and set them afire!!! Poetry~ Words falling on paper, painting a dream. Shawna R.

First of all, any song by Britney Spears and anything by the Bubblegum Boy Bands! Have any of you noticed that all Britney's 'songs' sound the same? Another one is The Lion Sleeps Tonight. I used to kind of like it, but then when the movie The Lion King came out a couple of years ago, it was played way too much. Can't stand it anymore. It drives me crazy.

Just recalled another one, one that has found immortality wherever two cowboys get together to boot-scoot: Macarena, by Rio dos Lobos. Back in 96, I worked in Hastings (book, vid and music store), where the management would play top 10's. Unfortunately, that song got played roughly 8 times a day, every day of the week for about 7 months. Still twitch a bit whenever I hear that insipid song. And who the hell is Morgena? |

lol...so I find that I have stumbled into a Britney hating society huh...hmmm...oh well...the younger generation (which I am unfortuneately still a part of) will just have to get used to the fact that their breast implant, knee job sweet heart isn't all that's she's cracked up to be... Hmmm, a song that I hate...ooooooh....Gardeamus, or something like that, I can't be bothered trying to spell it right...it's my figging (I can say that right?) school song, we sing it every year at prize giving and it's in latin or italian or some other language that's not English and I really can't stand it, that and anything that's by Madonna, ESPECIALLY her latest "Music" *puts her finger down her throat* |

"Write this Down" By George Strait..*cringes* The song is basically saying that the woman should write down that he loves her....why can't the guy do it himself already! Lazy cuss....anywho, that's probably the song I most despise....that and just about all rap songs... *Krista Knutson* "Wheresoever you go, go with all your heart." -Confucious |

Where to start... where to start.. there are several 'Total eclipse of the heart' - by that chick in the 1980's - AND the latest 'version'. Blah. 'Music' from Madonna...how utterly bland...and that woman blinks more time than a horse with loose eyelashes in that video. Robbie Williams. Anything he sings. Just...ewwwwwwwwwwww...detest! detest! The little boy and little girl groups...that's NOT singing. It simply isn't. Backstreet boys...go hang out there and never come back... that'll do...I'll probably come back with more...lol...when I feel like a good gripe. oh and just to correct C who is so sadly mistaken...'Don't worry, be happy' is a damn fine song... no taste...the man has NO taste...heh  K"He looked across the silky surface of the Severn... it was a famously difficult river with fierce tides..."

Okay Sonny and Cher's "I Got You Babe"...trash it PUUUUUUULEASSSSSEEEE!! and don't forget the all famous gag me "Feelings" That one drives me to kicking the damn stereo when it comes on. Now as for Severn and Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart"....I love that song but you certainly have the right to your opinion. She has a powerful voice in all she sings but the piano in that one is Awesome |

I would have to say that I hate anything by Marilyn Manson, he butchered the Eurthymic's classic "Sweet Dreams," he has no talent, cannot sing and worships satan...goodbye Marilyn  The song "Crybaby" by Mariah Carey...oh my ga, this woman sounds like she is screeching and whining, horrible, horrible song and her voice is so annoying, I would rather stare at linoleum for 5 hours straight than hear that song ever again, it makes me sick  P.S. - BTW, I love "Goodbye Earl" by the Dixie Chicks...clever take on abuse...it's time for revenge against those men who batter women, I luvit!  < !signature--> The beauty of poetry gives my soul wings to fly free within dreams [This message has been edited by Melissa Honeybee (edited 09-29-2000).] |

"Steal my Sunshine" by LEN... I don't know what it is but of all the rap/pop/Whatever just grates on my nerves... I hate "Hey Bartender" too, argh, NO MORE RAP-ROCK! Kid Rock, Limp Bizkit, BAD... Especially that stupid "Welcome to the Party Song" If I really wanted to hear about a moron getting drunk I could go to school. Alright, that's enough of my opinions... LOL, I don't like Rap...

I like "Let's Get Married" hehe I think it's nice. I hate Steal my Sunshine...Len annoys me. Kid Rock is awful, I don't think he knows the word "talent". I don't like anything by Puff Daddy....oh wait, maybe it's cause nothing is actually DONE BY HIM. He just steals it from everyone else. Most U2 songs drive me up a wall. Why is it that we are at our most ingenius only when trying to destroy the things that keep us alive and thriving? |

Now, Kid Rock has actually grown on me. You have to take it for what it is- trailer-brand party music... and in that context, it's kinda fun. How can you help but laugh at somebody who sings "I got money like Fort Knox?" and whose career exists solely for the purpose of promoting his riches, substance abuse, and luck with the ladies? Not sue what the vendetta is against rap either- admittedly, most mainstream rap promotes (what I consider to be) really depressing ideals of getting laid and getting rich- but the art form isn't to blame for that- and it IS an art form.... I have come across no other form of music that comes closer to spoken poetry, and just listening to the way rap artists put words and sounds together, even if you disagree with the message, is really interesting, to me at least. Now... my personal loathes? "Sk8er Boi" (Notice "kewl" avant-garde spelling) by Avril LaVigne (Sp?)- that song is, in my opinion, one of the best examples of what is wrong with society today.... that stupid little counter-culture pop icon evidently thinks that fighting elitism with elitism of her own (against the teen definition of "preppy people") is the best way to get back at a "snob" who thought she was too good for the "Sk8er Boi." Well, who's the better chick now? *Shudder* For Christ sake, even Britney and Christina Aguilerra don't prance around pretentiously pretending to have something important to say.... Anything Papa Roach... or Linkin Park, but the two are pretty much synonymous to me, because I can never tell them apart. I want to say "Just Like a Pill" by Pink-- oops, wait, I mean P!nk, LOL- but that song is great for entertainment value alone. |

over produced pop ballads (I have no problem with love songs with soul, eg Leonard Cohen, Nick Cave) Celine Dion, Mariah Carey, J lo really make me GGGRRRRR...cursing under my breath also bland pop music. ie. almost every song on main stream radio. boy groups, girl groups (it really annoys me that people call them bands, being a "band" would indicate that they can PLAY musical instruments) this nu-metal stuff as well, and the punk revialists like blink 182 and sum 42 (I am big fan of punk and post punk and these bands are not punk they are pop bands) and that stupid Nelly type hip hop and that gangsta (C)rap, I am not a fan of rap but I don't mind stuff like Roots and Public enemy. Lastly Techno...do I even need to give a reason?

I have a whole list of songs on my computer. A long list. Unfortunately, since I play all the songs randomly, it includes the PINBALL song in the list of songs, and its 17 minutes long... *shudder* ugh... I can't stand it. It makes me scream.

Just about every techno song...unless there are black lights and glowing sticks lighting the room, there is no need for it. That new Sheryl Crow song... soaking up the sun? Eh...? I don't know, it just annoys me. And there used to be this thing....it had a dance and everything..."The Caterpilar Crawl", by the Moffats....*shudder* That was horrid.

Ok guys: I like Goodbye Earl, Sweet Home Alabama and Steal My sunshine. What I hate is rap. Not Music, not music! Expecialy Eminem or however you spell his name! I'm sorry, but all of his songs are about killng his wife or Abusing his mother, AND he is racist. And he has the most annoying voice. It sounds like a snotty-nosed pre-schooler going Na Na Na Na na, you can't  catch me! Can you get any worse than that!One hundred times!!!!!!!!!!OK, just breathe  I'm okay....

Wind I have to disagree with you, rap is a form of music, and as with all music forms there is good and bad rap music. Eneimin's lyrics are merely shock tactics to gain attention, much like the ones Marilyn Manson used. Have you tried listening to Public enemy or roots (non gangsta rap)? I recently found myself listening to Metallica and system of a down after first dismissing them are rubbish. I agree that Sweet Home Alabama is a great song, how can you not possibly like it, its got a great uplifting melody. Other forms of music I hare, country and western, the slick shania Twain kind (ok one of her love songs was ok, in comparison to most modern love ballads and also the forced storytelling and heart break ones. I have no problems with Johny Cash, and even some (only some) Garth Brooks songs (the dance). Though techno is out of the question and I have listened to many techno songs, my brother is a big dance music fan.

Okay, I am of the opinion that Eminem is extremely talented. Yeah, he uses shock tactics to push the envelope, and yeah, I can see why some of the things he says offend people. But to say that all he sings about is killing his wife and abusing his mother is sheer ignorance. I also like his voice, but that's purely persnol preference. But I am always really impressed with the way he puts words together, and believe it or not, I think he is one of the most lyrically sound artists getting consistent airplay today- and I also think he gets better with each progressive album. Brian- I have to stick up for Blink 182. (Not so much Sum 41, but I do think they're kind of fun.) No, they aren't punk in the traditional 3-chord snarlin-anti-authority sense- but they are actually a good band- or rather, since I'm not really quealified to judge musical quality, I should say that I think their lyrics are usually fairly substantial, especially on Cheshire Cat and Dude Ranch. I also think that one of the great things about them, even in their more puerile or teenage-marketed pop tunes, they always seem to be having fun- which is immensely important in making enjoyable music. A bit cloying sometimes, especially with the childishly emotional "Staying Together for the Kids" and "Adam's Song," yea- but also really good when it comes to songs like "Dammit." |

Oh 'nother one to add to the list is that annoying song.. I dont know the name of the singer, but rest assured, theyre LUCKY that I dont know their name. it's sung by this guy who seems to be in a drunken stupor with giant ball of phlem stuck in his throat. he sings something along the lines of "Guuuurl....You'll be a wooo-man...soon" And it goes on... Are you scared? |

Hush, I guess blink 182 are lost on me, though I agree it is important to have bands “always seem to be having fun” Like “The Clash” who even at their most political never lost their sense of humour and were rarely downbeat Or Green day, saw them live one of the best gigs I have been at. I am not a fan of Eminem but I agree he has some talent, though look at the whole package, its cartoonish, he is an entertainer like Marilyn Manson. A lot of its black humour, not meant to be serious like with Murder Ballads by Nick Cave and the Bad seeds. I am going to shut up now, cos as someone once said "writing about music is like doing a dancing about architecture". I used to make phantoms I could later chase images of all that could be desired then I got tired of counting all of these blessings"h.devoto magazine |
