Songs you used to love, now can't stand.

Rebel4ever · 12-07-2012, 01:42 PM

Just a topic off the top of my head as I was driving down the road listening to SiriusXM. There are songs that most everybody just absolutely love. I'm talking about the ones that while still popular, you just can't tolerate anymore. I'll give you two of mine then probably add some later.

AC/DC You shook me all night long.
Aerosmith Dream On

Like I said just two quick ones. I used to love these songs but now, ugh, when I hear the first note, I'm like CHANGE IT! Anyway, interested to hear if you guys have any songs that are just played out, in your opinion, and can't stand anymore.

Old time rock and roll, love other Seeger songs

cockattorney2 · 12-07-2012, 03:02 PM

anything by Adele.... (not old, just completely overplayed nowadays)

cockinraleigh · 12-07-2012, 03:16 PM

Any song by Jason Aldean

catdaddy66 · 12-07-2012, 05:38 PM

Anything by Boston or Journey. Used to think they were the best but can hardly listen to them anymore.

chapincock · 12-07-2012, 06:50 PM

Pontoon was cool that one day on the lake when it came on. Now I'd rather bash my head thru the radio than here one second of that song. And tornado sounds just like pontoon.

Anything from nickelback.. Way back when I thought they was cool. Now I can't stand them

Don't Look Back is still the shit.

It is awesome. The slow part is almost spiritual. You had to be there I guess...

Dietz · 12-07-2012, 09:42 PM

anything by the Talking Heads, I used to geek out over them in college, but they just plain annoy the shit out of me now, it's David Byrne's weird voice and dorky synthesizers maybe...

I completely agree. Talking Heads 77 is one of the most annoying, cutesy, BULLSHIT snobby artsy-fartsy albums ever made.

The lyrics are SHIT.

There is too much singing... what was the reason why David Byrne could not shut his trap for like 10 seconds so we could listen to the music. He's yelping, shouting, growling, gurgling, STFU

I cant stand most of the first 3 albums, remain in light was OK, but after that, they REALLY started sucking.

The Talking Heads hold up decade after decade. I saw "Stop Making Sense" by Jonathan Demme and was BLOWN AWAY. I will admit his newer music hasn't grabbed me like the earlier stuff. And the lyrics? When I was taking a psychology class in college, the text referred to the Heads lyrics and I never forgot that. But that is why this world is great. We have so much to like and we don't have to like the same stuff!

Rolling Stones. Take your money and go buy an island or something. Just STFU.

Spurticus · 12-07-2012, 11:12 PM

Inna Gadda De Vitta - Iorn Butterfly

Light My Fire - The Doors

Anything new by the Rolling Stones. I use to love everything that they did up till the late 70's and after that they seem to try to go with whatever was in style at the time.

Bryan Adams songs are now a big turn off. Kind of like them back in the 80's but not anymore.

Not that I was ever a big U2 Fan, but I would just as soon be hit by a brick as to listen to their lead singer.

Michael Bolton songs make me sick to my stomach and he should be "banned from singing"!

Rod Stewart was always good to hear for many years, but he has also grown weary to listen to anymore or hell I might be getting old and grumpy!

RGHoskins · 12-08-2012, 12:14 AM

Barbara Ann. It was my favorite song when I was like 3. Now it makes me wanna punch babies.
