Title: "It's The Same Old Song" ~ SONGS YOU NEVER WANT TO HEAR AGAIN Post by: Allhallowsday on December 16, 2009, 07:00:24 PM This thread is for discussing records that you may have liked, but no longer can stand, or songs you have simply heard so many times, you don't ever need to hear them again...
Songs you may have always "hated" but aren't or weren't overplayed would be another topic. I really never need to again hear "Yesterday" or "Michelle" both by THE BEATLES, songs I may have imagined once having liked, but simply can't stomach now. The inspiration for this thread is the still-in-constant-rotation-on-oldies-radio FOUR TOPS 1965 hit, "It's The Same Old Song" which is the most appropriate and serendipitous song title of all time, which of course I heard today while listening to an oldies station: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=juqtcsHlKzs Don't get me wrong, THE FOUR TOPS are awesome, and this record is classic. I just don't want to hear it again. Ever. There's plenty of records I don't like, even 1 or 2 I may hate, but there are quite a few that are sure-fire station changers. What about you? WHAT SONGS DO YOU NEVER WANT TO HEAR AGAIN ?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okd3hLlvvLw I liked, at one point. But hearing it SO MANY TIMES on the radio recently, I kinda could live the rest of my life NEVER hearing it again.

Before He Cheats. Goodbye Earl.. or anything by the Dixie Chicks. F*** Her Gently. Killing Me Softly by the Fugees. What's Up. Suds In The Bucket. Strawberry Wine. Ode To My Car. I Kissed A Girl. Anything Alannis Morissette. Title: Re: "It's The Same Old Song" ~ SONGS YOU NEVER WANT TO HEAR AGAIN Post by: HappyGilmore on December 16, 2009, 11:15:52 PM Womanizer by Britney Spears.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LeoWolTRwJg Mind you, I like to think I'm pretty open to musical tastes. I mean, I'm a guy who likes a range of people from Dean Martin to Metallica, New Kids on the Block and Weird Al. I even had Britney's "Greatest Hits" at one point in my collection of cd's. HOWEVER. This song came along. I wanted to like it. I gave it chance. But in the span of one fateful 3 day weekend, I wanted to THROW my radio out the window. Mind you, I was out at the bar with some girl I was hanging with for a while and her friends. Not only was this song played about 10 times in 3 hours...but we also heard it 4 different times on the ride home. Then the next morning, it was played roughly 3 times an hour on the radio. On a consistent basis...All Saturday and all Sunday. Not just one station either...3 different stations. Again, this is comin from a guy who liked her music. Title: Re: "It's The Same Old Song" ~ SONGS YOU NEVER WANT TO HEAR AGAIN Post by: Mofo Rising on December 17, 2009, 02:38:27 AM I remember the old topic.
I'm pretty open to people enjoying the music they love, but I never, ever want to hear "The Joker" by the Steve Miller Band ever again. It's a hopeless dream of mine. The worst part is that whenever the song starts up, everybody around me gets really excited and insist on singing along, especially that "Maurice" line. I hate, hate this song. It makes me want to gouge out my own eardrums with my mother's brooches. Title: Re: "It's The Same Old Song" ~ SONGS YOU NEVER WANT TO HEAR AGAIN Post by: retrorussell on December 17, 2009, 03:16:49 AM "Sweet Caroline" and I hate when people go "BA BA BAAAA...." and "SO GOOD! SO GOOD! SO GOOD!"
Also, I'm sick of Margaritaville, and when people go "WHERE'S THE SALT! WHERE'S THE G**DAMN SALT!". Title: Re: "It's The Same Old Song" ~ SONGS YOU NEVER WANT TO HEAR AGAIN Post by: Joe the Destroyer on December 17, 2009, 03:17:41 AM Lady Gaga- Paparazzi
Linkin Park- Somewhere I Belong Adema- Freaking Out Anything Brittney Spears Anything Eminem I can't really think of anymore off hand. I'm sure I'll come up with some others later. Title: Re: "It's The Same Old Song" ~ SONGS YOU NEVER WANT TO HEAR AGAIN Post by: Mr. DS on December 17, 2009, 12:39:06 PM Joe mentioned Linkin Park. I'll give a nod to anything in their collection. They are probably one of the most overrated bands of all time. Oh and thank you Retro for mentioning Sweet Caroline. :thumbup:
Bon Jovi - Living On A Prayer, You Give Love A Bad Name Shania Twain - Man, I Feel Like A Woman Great White - Once Bitten, Twice Shy Abba - Dancing Queen (and 99% of their catalog...I have a soft spot for "Fernando") Jethro Tull - Thick As A Brick (And a good percentage of their catalog...I don't get Tull...I just don't...) The Fat Boys (with Chubby Checker) - The Twist Michael Jackson - You Are Not Alone Celine Dion - My Heart Will Go On (it always makes me think of that reprehensible Titanic movie...) Title: Re: "It's The Same Old Song" ~ SONGS YOU NEVER WANT TO HEAR AGAIN Post by: flackbait on December 17, 2009, 03:17:22 PM I'm surprised no ones mentioned this song yet:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhTRhAX_QBA As a child I was never allowed to play this song. My dad told me "I'll glady listen to an hour of that new rap crap before I hear this song again!". Oddly enough it was his album I'd use when I first heard this song. :teddyr: Also I kinda loath to admit it but I actually like most of the older songs that are mentioned here like the ones from KISS Bob Seger and Jethro tull to name a few. Although I could see how they could get annoying if I'd hear them enough times, or just didn't like the band general. As for what I hate, is pretty much all the new songs that come out these days. I just can't seem to like em, no matter how many times I give them a chance. It just sounds like the same old song thats been reworked.

I avoid this song and still cringe when I hear it. I know the lyrics, and, much like Cartman with the Styx song of his nightmares, it has to play through my head every time I hear it. I want it to go away. Please, make it stop. Title: Re: "It's The Same Old Song" ~ SONGS YOU NEVER WANT TO HEAR AGAIN Post by: Joe the Destroyer on December 18, 2009, 03:54:55 AM Lifehouse- Hanging by a Moment
The Carpenters- Sing Anything N Sync Weezer- Hash Pipe or Beverly Hills AC/DC- Touch Too Much In most of these cases on either post, these were songs I was indifferent towards until hearing them repeatedly. Then things got worse... Title: Re: "It's The Same Old Song" ~ SONGS YOU NEVER WANT TO HEAR AGAIN Post by: Allhallowsday on December 19, 2009, 08:16:17 PM I actually have in my possession LAURA BRANIGAN's Greatest Hits cd... no, it ain't mine (belongs to a friend's husband that she's divorcing - no wonder)! Yet, I have not uploaded it, though I always borrow everybody's cds to upload, and it's sitting right there, and I have 100s of albums up on my computer, many of which I don't really like... :thumbdown: :lookingup: :thumbdown:

Everything (Or should I say anything? Which one is correct?) from ABBA pokerface-lady gaga (Seriously. I have an urge to murder everyone when I hear it. Same with paparazzi.) Everything from John Lennon Sweet home, Alabama I kissed a girl I got a feeling-Black eyed peas that techno piece of...music, maybe it's called Riverside Christmas carols bulletproof and the 500 other songs that I'm forced to hear every day and I don't know their title.

Right on Circus. :thumbup: Popular music, in my opinon, is now at an all-time low, getting worse as the years go on. Just insipid, uninspired, cash driven horses**t. When I used to write for a local 'zine, I wrote an article about how popular music was going down the toilet - this was like 10 years ago when nu-metal and bands like Creed were popular. I couldn't fathom how much lower music could sink, but apparently it has - and I don't want to sound like I'm praising the music back then, which I am not - but music these days is just so plastic and, well, FAKE, that I'm left dumbfounded at the total lack of substance that is on display these days. I don't think anyone will look back at music over the past 15+ years from now and be nostalgic for it. It will only be an embarassment to those who follow the trends. I remember getting picked on for liking metal when NKOTB were hip, and a few years later, those same people were embarassed to admit that they listened to them. Things haven't really changed much....I don't know what the hell I'm trying to get at, but I do know what I like, and I'm proud to say that I've always had a disdain for anything remotely trendy. BAH!

No BECK Odelay...? No AMY WINEHOUSE? I agree, and often complain to my bored friends about how modern Pop is just homogenized sh!t. That doesn't mean that 1 in 100 or 1000 aren't worthwhile. And not to seem like I'm pickin' on these guys, THE FOUR TOPS are great, I've just heard this song more than amply (here's a great clip that is thoroughly enjoyable, I even liked the song again - not really): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aigRZ-1LjH0 Title: Re: "It's The Same Old Song" ~ SONGS YOU NEVER WANT TO HEAR AGAIN Post by: Mr. DS on December 21, 2009, 12:30:21 PM Quote No BECK Odelay I'm sorry Allhallows, I don't get Beck personally. but if it helps I like a lot of music done by people much less talented.

I'm not saying every artist is a bad artist, there are lots of decent musicians around - mainly ones that don't get enough credit. I'll easily admit the likes of Amy Winehouse and Beck are good, but they're not my cup of tea. Plus, the thread is titled "Songs you never want to hear again", not what artists do you wish would curl up and die. :teddyr: Title: Re: "It's The Same Old Song" ~ SONGS YOU NEVER WANT TO HEAR AGAIN Post by: Allhallowsday on December 21, 2009, 11:55:46 PM Quote No BECK Odelay I'm sorry Allhallows, I don't get Beck personally. but if it helps I like a lot of music done by people much less talented.

This is a strange one for me, I have a love/hate relationship with it... Title: Re: "It's The Same Old Song" ~ SONGS YOU NEVER WANT TO HEAR AGAIN Post by: InformationGeek on January 09, 2010, 10:31:46 PM Just about almost every rap song in existance. There a couple of them I like, but most of them I can't stand since I either don't like the lyrics or like the music.
Outside of that, I really don't have any song I never want to hear again. Surprisingly enough, if I don't listen to any song for a few years and then come back to again, I find that really like it again. Interesting. Title: Re: "It's The Same Old Song" ~ SONGS YOU NEVER WANT TO HEAR AGAIN Post by: Psycho Circus on January 10, 2010, 06:30:31 AM Run To The Hills by Iron Maiden. I must have heard this song about ten zillion times and they play it at every single concert. When I went to see Maiden 7 years ago (wow, that's flown by!) they played it during the main set and then as an encore! I mean, I could still listen to the guitar solo all day long, but jeez is this track overplayed...
