I think they mean Steve Brookstein, DP.

Anything sung by a chantoosie, especially the new crop - Amy Winebox, Duff(y), etc.

Drippy boys with guitars. Whatever muso wankstains in NME or the grauniad tell me I'm supposed to like. Yawn.

oh him, ...i'd erased him from my memory....and now you've given me total recall.... you swines!

solidgold - it's Snow Patrol, and while I take your point entirely and want to execute people who use "lay" incorrectly, I have to break it to you that they are in fact not, on this occasion!

He sings "If I lay here, would you lie with me" - i.e. "If I lay" used as the past subjunctive of "lie". i.e. "if I were to do this, would you do this also?"

One for Pedants' Corner, I think!

TeenyTinyTorya · 28/12/2008 00:10

Techno/rave (ned music )
That awful warbly R&B hip hop stuff
Rap except for Eminem
Emo music
Thrash metal

I love-
50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, especially cheesy disco
Rock
Jazz
Musicals and show tunes
Nu-metal

thumbElf · 28/12/2008 00:14

some reggae, most rap, boring current R&B stuff (not the old stuff)
Trad jazz
anything that just repeats the same 2 lines over and over and over...

solidgoldstuffingballs · 28/12/2008 00:50

UQD Butbutbut (having had that farking song inflicted on me far too many times so have, er, contextally analysed the lyrics at extreme cost) it's conditional not subjunctive. So he still merits a good kick up the twinkle. And if Leona Haemorrage Lewis gets at that one next I will have to start carrying a sick bag for when I get taken by surprise by such 'songs' in Sainsburys.

Tinker · 28/12/2008 00:51

Jazz (expect this to be a very popular choice
RnB (as applied now, not as was)

harleyd · 28/12/2008 00:51

manufactured pop boy/girl band wank

Tinker · 28/12/2008 00:53

Anything on those Ministry of Sound albums (shows age)
Chill-out shite - teh type that plays on Property Ladder when the house is finished.

solidgoldstuffingballs · 28/12/2008 00:54

Ok come on that whole video is the tortured love triangle about him and Simon Coward and the fair-haired one - all those lingering looks and sobbing flounces....

SAmbiClaus · 28/12/2008 01:00

vile country and western
death metal
happy house, stupid bassline and whistles with some knob shouting "oranges", tis not music I'm afraid.

Though I love hip hop, rnb and rap, but totally agree with uqd about the nelly collab with Tim McGraw, it was awful why did they release it here since few of us knew of Tim except being Faith Hills husband.

UnquietDad · 28/12/2008 10:38

Apologies, it is conditional (sorry, I was half-asleep!) but he is still right! "If I lay here, would you lie with me?"

stillenacht · 28/12/2008 10:42

r 'n' b
emo
freeform jazz - yup totally agree southeastastra
country
crossover classical
rap
hip hop

pruners...i agree with you, i love swing...but robbie noooooooooooooooooo!

musicians amaze me sometimes though, i like richard thompson (folky/rocky)....but he did a version of britneys "oops i did it again"....wtf?

Parumpapumfumf · 28/12/2008 11:53

he did??? [boggles]
I expect it is wonderful though > Everything Richard Thompson does is wonderful!

SGB - thank you - I wondered if anyone had listened to my link! Th only problem is, that version catches me unawares sometimes when I am singing to myself round the house and realise that even if it sung in a Suzanne Vega stylee, I am still singing mothafuckA in front of my children

Ronaldinhio · 28/12/2008 11:58

acid jazz

paolosgirl · 28/12/2008 12:00

Rap
Hip hop
New warbly R n B - not true R n B, that's good

Anything that involves (usually black) boys in their bling with girls in bikinis dancing round flash cars. Great role models not.

daftpunk · 28/12/2008 12:09

parum....(sorry i'll stop there cos i'll never spell your name right)

yes..i love richard thompson..but he did a version of that song..it wasn't too bad actually and i forgive him...

paolosgirl · 28/12/2008 12:11

And choirs - esp. childrens choirs (not sure if it's a genre though)

I hate choirs more than any other form of music.

daftpunk · 28/12/2008 12:12

here

harleyd · 28/12/2008 12:14

Zebraa · 28/12/2008 12:15
