songs you HATE

Oh, sorry...didn't want to do the Jonas Brothers and Miley wrong.

But seriously, at least the aformentioned artists started as the talentless twits they are today. Green Day actually had some talent before they sold out to the Man. It's depressing, really. What a slab of rotten meat their last two albums have been.

You try playing dookie and insomniac for 20 years....

At least these bands had (and still have) context in their music (juvenile as it may be). They were doing something other than rehashed preteen love songs.

I was just saying, Blink 182 and Green Day changed the scene. JoBros and Hannah are just pre-manufactured pop. Comparing Blink 182 and Green Day to Hannah Montana and the JoBros is like comparing the Kinks and The Rolling Stones to The Monkees and Sonny & Cher.

I like real punk too, and to me Blink 182 and Green Day are real pop punk. I think to truly enjoy punk, you need to appreciate all of it, folk punk, hardcore, ska, and skate punk.

That being said, anything Gwen Stefani post-No Doubt, IMO, blows.
 
That "Chicken Fried" song needs to go away right now. Unfortunately for me I`m stuck in country music`s second capital and everyone`s ring tone just happens to currently be that.
I started to learn that song on bass when it first came out..and got most of it but threw in the towel on that one....I seem to want fried chicken everytime I hear that song and gain 5 lbs each time I hear it too!
 
Is there another version?


For me, anything Carpenters. They wrote really sappy but very catchy music... ICK!!!
eleon....
OH lord! I have been told I sound like Karen Carpenter when I sing their songs...I grew up listening to her and used to sing a lot. I tend to get requests on karaoke nights to sing them! SO...advice: don't come see me sing or bring ear plugs when u do! hehe!
 
Anything by Metallica...
Where I live, every wannabe guitard in the city plays nothing but Metallica. I makes me wanna chew my own ears off...
*faints*
they r my favorite metal band! lol!

I love Man of Constant Sorrow, and thats one of my all time favorite movies.. :bawl:

Ill go with anything coming out these days that gets airtime.. I mean, I love some of it, dont get me wrong.. But if I have to hear one more song about "Slapping them hoezz," Im going to blow a gasket.

I am sorry! :bawl::bawl: I do agree with you on all those hip hop songs on slappin' hoez and shorty this and that...first of all I am NOT "shorty" lol!


Freebird.

Sorry, but I haaaaaaate that song. It was fine the first 27 billion times, but then it started getting a wee bit old.

I always hated that song too..then I dedicated it to my dad when he passed away last Dec..now I can't LISTEN to it cause I cry.:bawl: I remember a couple weeks after he passed, the band played it at the club..one of the guys in the band saw and knew why I was crying and I never heard them play it again! watch they do tonight! :hiding: now that I mentioned it
 
The Dobie Gray (cover by Uncle Kracker) song is actually called "Drift Away". We used to regularly add obscene lyrics to that song at my old work. So many things rhyme perfectly.
OH thank you! My mind went blank when trying to name the song...

other songs I hate:
American Woman
Kiss (Prince and Tom Jones)
Bare Footin'
Walking the Dog
Over the Rainbow
I HATE HATE HATE Sweet Escape by Gwen Stehani
folk music
 
This is going to eliminate a lot of songs but I can't stand any I-IV-V progression, with a shuffle rhythm and the bass playing a I-III-V-VI/bVII (you know who they are). I just can't get into it.
okay, been playing for two years now..self taught, but if I am not mistaken...you don't like what I play most of...country! I seem to remember my bf telling me I-IV-V's while I was playing country music.

that's okay..we all have our preferences! :) I just play country a lot cause the place I go to play country..but I know a few other genres too! I'd love to learn metal one day on bass!
