MindCrime Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 What are some bands that you like, but don't care much for their most popular / overplayed song? Some of mine: Rock & Roll All Night - KISS Welcome to the Jungle - Guns N' Roses Enter Sandman - Metallica Zeppelin's is Stairway, which I like, but I don't really see much in Whole Lotta Love which is probably their 2nd most played on the radio.

skybluesky Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 I really hate Hotel California. I know I'm going to get crap for that, but the classic rock station where I used to live played that song about ten times every day and now I can't even stomach it.

Jenny Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 I don't know if it's his most popular song, but I don't like "Uptown Girl" by Billy Joel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted March 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 I don't know if it's his most popular song, but I don't like "Uptown Girl" by Billy Joel. It was the most popular of 80's Joel, just don't know about it compared to Piano Man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JumboXL Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 I am very much a Rolling Stones fan, have been so since I heard "It's All Over Now" the first time on a transistor radio. And I have very much disliked, from the first time I ever heard it, one of the most favoured Stones ballads: "Angie". Still zapping away from it.

Carl Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 I love The Beatles and Elton John, but each have a massive hit anthem song that I find cloying and endless: Elton: Bennie and the Jets Beatles: Hey Jude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 (edited) I am very much a Rolling Stones fan, have been so since I heard "It's All Over Now" the first time on a transistor radio. And I have very much disliked, from the first time I ever heard it, one of the most favoured Stones ballads: "Angie". Still zapping away from it. thank you. I cannot abide that song. And, like rg, I really don't like Hotel California either. It's Joe Walsh's guitar that makes the song, the Eagles have much better songs. Edited March 5, 2010 by Guest and...

c_s_1987 Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 Genesis are the perfect example of this. They are one of my favourite bands, yet I don't particularly like any of their twenty or so hit singles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted March 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 Genesis are the perfect example of this. They are one of my favourite bands, yet I don't particularly like any of their twenty or so hit singles. The only hit of theirs I like is Land of Confusion. No Son of Mine is an okay song, but I don't like the rest (Phil Collins era) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MindCrime Posted March 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 I like REO Speedwagon okay, but not I Can't Fight This Feeling (if that is their most popular song) Same for Tom Sawyer by Rush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawna Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 I love me some Stevie-era Fleetwood Mac, but "Gypsy" has always caused me to change the radio station. And in the '70s I was a tight-pants-Euro-dude-Rod-Stewart fan, but "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?" Not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MindCrime Posted March 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 Gypsy isn't really one of their most popular though. Did you know Ms Nicks wrote that song for a friend who died of leukemia? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ombre Vivante Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 I don't really care for "Just Can't Get Enough" by Depeche Mode as well as "Situation" and "Don't Go" by Yazoo (all composed by Vince Clarke). It's not that I think they're bad songs, but they're waaaaay overplayed on 80s flashback hours. They killed the novelty of the songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinkstones Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 I don't care for it either. There's other songs on the album I like more, such as New Kid In Town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
