'Classic' records you hate with passion

I don't know about you (crikey I've come all over Denis Norton there!) but there are some songs that everyone seems to love but I hate so much I can't stand to have it played near me.

My biggest hate is Band on the Run and in joint first place is Jet. Both are an aural version of finger nails on a chalk board.

I really have to turn the radio, or tv over when I hear these songs. I have no idea why!

And OK Computer aka Music to Slash Your Wrists To

innocuousnamechange · 20/08/2010 09:18

OK Computer is shite. But I was listenign to The Bends this week. WHat a great album. COnversely, the classic song I could listen to again and again and again is Singing it as loud as I can Grin

upahill · 20/08/2010 09:21

Now going back to Bohemian Rhapsody. I really hate the original BUT what about this

[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgbNymZ7vqY watch all of it!!]

Also Emily Autumn does a good version as well that certainly puts a twist on it especially if you see her playing it at a live gig (not for the faint hearted!!)

Nearly everything that is considered 'classic' makes me want to vomit -

Eric Sodding Clapton - Layla and that other big crap one of his.

Brick In The Wall

Loads of stuff by The Beatles

Bohemian Rhapsody

Anything by Bob Marley - sooooooooooo boring.

UB40 - Red Red Wine is hideous.

Anything by Simply Red.

Coldplay - god, I loathe Cold Play.

Earlybird · 20/08/2010 20:16

Lady In Red - Chris de Bleurgh......

cyteen · 20/08/2010 20:18

Black Box - Ride On Time
Jocelyn someone - Somebody Else's Guy

taffetacatski · 20/08/2010 20:19

Lionel Ritchie - Hello vomvomvom
Like a Virgin - Madonna
Any awful soft rock from the 80's
I do however adore Arctic Monkeys
And strangely even though I know its beyong naff have a fondness for ELO

moondog · 20/08/2010 20:19

Colplay are appalling aren't they.If they come on the radio I roar 'Fuck off!!!!@ ad switch over quickly before I hear a note more. Alarms passengers.

That Journey song has been a constant soundtrack of anything I do for the last 4 months (unfortunately).It's an old song isn't it?

How can you say that about Hendrix Makeup! Tis heresy.

TheDoodler · 20/08/2010 20:19

U2 i just don't get.

But for me it has to be 10CCs I'm not in lov - don't know why but the minute it comes on my ears start to bleed and i have to punch the person nearest to me....

moondog · 20/08/2010 20:20

God, I lbloody love ELO.
Not naff at all.
Brilliant songsters.
