General / Off-Topic (Humour) Songs I Hate And Reasons Why I Should Like Them Thread.

(Humour)

There are some songs I really hate, but they sold in their millions. So I must be wrong, right?

Put up the songs you hate, or counter someones hated song by pointing out why you think it's a good song, or do both.

This one really gets my back up. Over produced nothing. The I've got some cabbage stuck in my throat voice and the let's put lots of reverb on digital toms is a particular bugbear. Am I right? :

And this one, not my first choice of baby sitter:

I hate anything that isn't metal enough. But nothing is metal enough.

All modern RnB. Take it back to its roots and sure, we have a discussion. Modern day RnB is about as "blue" as a sheet of vantablack and as repetitive as 1-jump trading in ED.

Avago, if you don't like those two songs...never mind. I have no words.

*jasonbarron turns away from the forum and back to GTA V where his character has just boosted a Ferrari and is currently a blur of speed on the freeway with the top down and the wind whipping his mullet and In the Air Tonight hammering the speakers while the hubcaps seem to spin backward...*

Please enlighten me. Show me the error of my ways.

While I like most music I like there to BE music, and not noise. The group that has me reaching for the 'mute' button is The Arctic Monkeys.

Great... I now want to roll my sleeves up and take my socks off....

Nobody wants to see that.

 

[StiTch]

Nobody wants to see that.

As a wise man once said: "Don't speak for me please mate".

Now TJ, how far do those sleeves roll up...

I didn't know that was a kink. Carry on.

I remember once asking for something in a supermarket that I wanted and had been able to buy there before, but was no longer available. The assistant sneeringly said "Them? Nobody ever wants them!". I was unhappy with this response, and I floored him with "Nobody? Are you calling me a NOBODY?". The apology was profuse. What also helped was that somebody else nearby was also after the same item, and joined the conversation. This resulted in a section manager taking over. The end result was that they started stocking that item again.

I hate most modern music.

It all sounds the same, and autotuned.

Seriously, if you can't make music, or sing. Don't.

Most of the music I like is from before I was born, or when I was really young.

Unfortunately, some awful 90s music is very nostalgic for me, even though I hate it. Which in turn forces me to like it.

B*Witched is one of those. Curse you.... It oddly reminds me of I-War. Because I got them both for Christmas. I didn't ask for a B*Witched CD... Lol
But now every time I hear their songs, I want to play I-War.

Lol

I hate this cover:
[video=youtube;MH9FyLsfDzw]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MH9FyLsfDzw[/video]

I hate it because I've listened to it probably several thousand times in the last half a year and have it set as a alarm clock.
Can't stop listen to it, though, so I hate myself as well.

But wouldn't it be much better with this track underneath?

If we're going for 'chill nightdriving' at least get the production right. And get Phil out of the studio. And the city. And of the planet.

You have begun to hear one fraction of a tiny bit of a percentage of modern music. Such statements are just... yeah. FWIW: Level of musicianship is much, much higher now than it ever was. Not because current generations are better, but because more people than ever have access to decent instruments. In the 60s, only a tiny group of people could afford synths, and access to electric guitars, pianos and such was super limited as well. Nowadays anyone could basically pick an instrument and get a good quality model for a price most of us can easily afford.

It has resulted in unrivaled creativity, diversity and general awesomeness. The music industry is struggling with it, so you'll have to turn off the radio if you want to find them. Or just listen to the stuff you listened to when you were younger.

If I rep you and agree that this is a cool track will you stop smack talking my man Phil?

In my humble opinion, metal today is much, much better than it was twenty years ago.

Yes, I do enjoy metal from the eighties and nineties.

But I do prefer, in general, metal produced this millennium.

I don't know, there hasn't even been a Tool album this decade yet, I'm not convinced

Depends whether you mean older "metal" as actual older metal or "hard rock".

You won't catch me listening to AC/DC, but I challenge you to name any strictly "metal" modern acts that blow Pantera out the water.
