Bands you hate - Tracks you rate.

[Maurice Picarda]

Simon and Garfunkel - Scarborough Fair.

 

[Firky]

Coldplay - Fix You. Sung by:

fucking hell that is really quite good, hate to say it.

 

[Mr Retro]

fucking hell that is really quite good, hate to say it.

Isn't it? I was watching the docu on that Young@Heart group and that came on.

"Who the fuck sings that fantastic song?" I asked.
"Coldplay" said the wife.



To be fair, an old fat guy on oxygen makes a much better job of it than the the fucking "=" sign.

The Ramones - The KKK Took My Baby Away

Wasn't the whole point of The Ramones that all their songs sounded identical (and ace)?

Robbie Williams - "Let Me Entertain You"
Backstreet Boys - "Everybody (Backstreet's Back)"

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

Boo Radley's - Wake Up Boo

Wrong thread, mate. This is the thread for 'Good tracks by shit bands' not 'absolutely woeful tracks by otherwise decent bands'.

 

[futha]

'Sewn' by 'The Feeling'

same here

 

[bluestreak]

A few of my guilty secrets then...

Incubus - Version
The Killers - Mr Brightside
TaTu - All The Things She Said
Destiny's Child - Bootylicious

 

[Geri]

U2 - Stuck in a moment

 

[Chairman Meow]

That Shakira one where her hips don't lie.

 

[saucisson]

keep on moving - 5ive

 

[Meltingpot]

The Scorpions: "Wind of Change". I don't hate the Scorps exactly but that's the only track I've heard of theirs that does anything for me.

 

[Idaho]

There are a fair few songs by U2 that I like despite disliking them.

 

[May Kasahara]

I was very disappointed to have to admit that Mariah Carey's "Heartbreaker" is a cracking tune.

 

[stavros]

Is this "hatred" for the artists and their whole body of work, or the person/people? I think I've said before that James Blunt for example might be a thoroughly nice chap, I don't know, but it does remain the case that his vocal chords should be severed.

 

[jbob]

No stavros, this where you admit you like 'You're Beautiful' but hate him and the rest of his work.

 

[Dubversion]

Simply Red - Fairground.

so sue me.

Actually I was playing in Riley's a couple of weeks ago when just as I was about to take a shot, having played quite well up until then, that song started on the PA and it went totally tits up. Proof, if it were needed, that his work is evil, it even fucks up playing pool.

 

[Nixon]

The Foo Fighters have maybe 2 tunes that I am quite partial to..and I deeply despise them.

I have a thing for the new Britney Spears tune too..

 

[N_igma]

U2-Bloody Sunday

The Beatles-Eleanor Rigby

Spice Girls-Viva Forever

 

[Boris Sprinkler]

The Hardest Part - Coldplay.


sorry.

 

[yield]

Gwen Stefani – Hollaback Girl

I know. I know.

This Shit is bananas. B-A-N-A-N-A-S

 

[Idaho]

Toni Braxton - (called something like - Wasn't man enough for me)

 

[Mallard]

Glen Campbell - 'Witchita Lineman'

 

[bluestreak]

Simply Red - Fairground.

so sue me.

Nuke you from orbit more like.

 

[Dubversion]

Nuke you from orbit more like.

 

[Idaho]

Glen Campbell - 'Witchita Lineman'

That's a great song. No idea about his other ones.

 

[bluestreak]

*shrugs*

 

[Dubversion]

That's a great song. No idea about his other ones.

Glen's made lots of ace records..

 

[Idaho]

Not sure about Fairground btw, but I love Stars.

 

[rekil]

Simply Red - Fairground.

Me too. I like the drums and simple melody but it all goes horribly wrong at the chorus.

JJ72 - October Swimmer.
