songs you HATE

but just to reiterate...

ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING by Lenard skinard. i will shoot you in the face if you request freebird.

anything by U2, Kid Rock, Hinder, Nickelback, anyone who sings through an auto-tuner, papa roach, and anyone who is supposed to be a boy but looks like a girl to include hair metal, stadium rock, and emo. (excluding David Bowie)

and "gangsta" rap. just suck on your "gat" and pull the trigger. please.
 
For me, almost any "music" (and I use the term music VERY loosely) in the charts at the present moment, that was made with no musical talent whatsoever. The majority of musical artists at the moment can barely sing, and I'm sure you could count the number of actual "Musicians" in todays Top 10 on the thumbs of one hand...
NOTE: I haven't checked, i may be wrong. I am from the UK though, so I highly doubt that...

I always say I will listen to any "music which takes talent to make." I wont always like it, but I will at least listen before drawing an opinion. I wouldn't say there's one proper genre (i.e. talent-taking) I can completely blanket as BS in my book, but there are some I like more than others.

Since the majority of posters here are from the States no mentions have previously been made of "Tinchy Stryder" "JLS" or "Chipmunk" (to name but a few) I hope and pray that these abominations are yet to reach your side of the pond. Believe me, your not missing much!

OK, that's the rant over now! I could go on for pages and pages........!
 
Call me narrow-minded,music-wise.But,I don't give a rat's ass.
Hmmm.....Let's see.Where shall we start??

(1)Cuntry,Cuntry & Western,Modern Cuntry,old-school cuntry.(I love life!!I DO NOT,I REPEAT(!!),I DO NOT need to cry in my beer,or whiskey,in my case,and slash my wrist,from getting depressed from all the sad songs.)Besides,cuntry music is boring to play,IMHO.Yes.I've tried just about every "challenging" country tune out there,at one time or another over the years.Our band plays cuntry.....Just....J-U-S-T enuff to shut the crowds pie-holes.IMO,It's a V-E-R-Y boring,repetitive style of music (IMHO) to play,for a bassist.(And,YES!!I've heard Keith Horn!!!)

(2)Rap!!!!!I CANNOT tolerate listening to rap.Now,"The Chronic",by Dr.Dre.Also,SOME stuff by Snoop.M&M??GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR!!!GREAT LYRICS!!!Also,he DOES NOT give a rat's ass about what he says with his!!That,my friends,is a Rock & Roll attitude.That's one of the reasons I dig his stuff.
O.K.I admit it.I simply LOVE "Rapper's DeLight".(Gee...Maybe it's because Doug Wimbish played on that track!!)G-R-E-A-T BASS LINE!!

(3)Techno!!Need I say more???

Basically,I DO NOT,WILL NOT,WILL NOT TOLERATE,CANNOT STAND THE FOLLOWING:

MUSIC THAT DOES NOT USE "REAL" MUSICIANS!!!

That just takes money out of a typical bar-band's (well,ANY musicians pockets!!!)
Yes!!That goes for you too,Karaoke clubs!!!!

There(!!!),music & clubs I despise.Stick that in your pipe & toke on it!!!

Since I never heard of the ones you mentioned here, I thought I would check them out. All three are awful with no talent. I would rather listen to Alvin & The Chipmunks. That Chipmunk guy can't even speak. He says Frwee for the word Three.
 
Ok, i've been biting my tongue on the whole rap issue but this is the fourth or fifth time. Come on, how can you just say you dont like any music from an entire genre of music? I do realize that most of the bs thats played on the radio and tv is utter nonsensicle shyte but if ya look you can find good stuff in the rap or hip hop genre. I only like a handfull of artists myself but its still one of my fave things to listen to. That said, I hate country but I havent said anything cuz I have gotten into a country track every once in a while in passing.

I can't stand any rap on the radio, but once in a while I'll find an awesome rap song, like this one, I love it:
So Awesome.
 
We Built This City (on Rock 'n Roll) - Starship (Grace Slick quit singing after that album, can't say I blame her, she HATED that song)

ANYTHING involving Sireeeeeen Dijon, Pariah Scarey or Whitney Houston We Have A Problem

Macarena

Chicken Dance

Electric Slide

Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer

Sorry folks, i just don't do corny very well.

ANY rap, period. To me, Rap is a form of crime, not of art.
 
any country made since 1985

Dream Weaver is the worst ever IMO.

also bad:

Beth, other songs by Kiss, Metallica after And Justice for all. Nickelback, new "alternative" bands that sound just like nickelback.

Patsy Cline - If i hear another karaoke version of crazy i'm going to stick a fork in my ear.
