The big jar of over played songs

Same with me, I wish I could just stop - I have in fact, but it never lasts... get insomnaic etc. Wish I could smoke draw regularly again - then it's just a beer and a spliff or two and a good nights sleep, but prone to cancer so no smoking. Valium is clearly not an option either... so it's all down to willpower and I have no time for that so I sit up listening to stuff recomended by urban (Joy Division and Velvet underground+nico today) until I'm tired enough to fall asleep and... er.. I'll stop with the sob radiohead style whining now ;)
 
I agree with msot of those, Firky, except for 'Push It'. I heard that in, I think, 2001, at Reading Festival, and it was the first time I'd heard it since I was originally into Salt and Pepa in about 1989.

Hey you can't let your feelings get in the way here - you know full well the beatles' back catalogues is the most overplayed thing ever, if you don't put it in your list is VOID! :mad:

Just get fuckin 'Hey Jude' in. Then shit in the jar. Then fire away.
 
Teenage Kicks (especially whenever John Peel is mentioned :mad: )
Blue Monday
We are the champions
We will rock you
Simply the Best
I Will Survive

But take Groove is the Heart out because it really isn't.
 
I would have to add bloody London Calling. Especially when it's used in some lame American film when the hero/heroine visits London. Becoming a real cliche.

:mad:
 
Come on people, you're neglecting the worst offender of modern times:

James 'Blunt' - You're Beautiful

Do it for my sanity!

OHMYGOD yes! can we chuck him in as well?

I'm sure he has plenty more 'gems' to follow...
 
It's basically all the songs they play on local radio stations innit?

Where they have a playlist of like 20 tracks. Plus requests from the 'general public'. ie. people with no taste.. :rolleyes:

And every night where large quantities of women/gay men gather to imbibe alcoholic drinks, not to mention the fact that there's some shit joke email going round my work at the moment featuring a badly animated turkey singing it, so I've had to endure it about fifty thousand fucking times over the last few days.

Stop pissing about Firky and cram James Blunt in the pot!
 
I Will Survive should go in. Along with I Will Always Love You and that fucking stupid song from Titanic by Celine Dion because it comes out way, way too often at weddings.

And James Blunt too.

Aaahhh dear god! Email jokes... they're not funny! I worked in a really crap bar, Chiacago Rock Cafe, for about 4 weeks. I F'ing HATED it. I Swear we never got anyone in sobre, or who was under the age of 45. Mutton dressed as lamb. Horrible place. I had to endure the very worst of shit club songs. Handbag house, power ballads, and hairspray cock rock... was HORRIBLE!!!

Good tips though :)

James Clunt is in the jar, right at the bottom so he can suffer for his heinous crimes.

If you could also add Jocelyn whatsherface's shitey classic 'Somebody Else's Guy' to this infernal mix, I might give you a treat ;)

Hi Ho Silver Lining

and The Wind Beneath My Wings

the first was kind of ok until it was killed by overplay, the secind has always been tripe but overplaying has made it worse

I guess Come On Eileen should be in there too shouldn't it?
 
That new radicals song. "Hey ho we're 14 and gonna batter marylin Manson"

Not a patch on bran van 3000 in my opinion, yet played to death by local radios and in bad clubs at that horribe point when you realise you are in a bad club and you want to home, but taxis cost money :(

AHHH horrible horrible song, added some more. I'm afraid I can't put the Zenie's or Tangerine's in... they're just not too overplayed enough. ;)
