To avoid the likes of Barbie Girl.
Contenders for me would be a few songs off Be Here Now,
You're tender and you're tired.
and You stole the sun from my heart.
I wouldn't really be considering the early Beatles stuff so I'll go with Kokomo by the Beach Boys.
What were they thinking?
Ooh, I want to take ya. Come on pretty Moma.
anything written by u2 after 12pm, September 4th, 1995.
If i have to choose one, it'll be the bland and pathetically lyric'd Vertigo.
"Unos dos tres catorce!
Lights go down, it’s dark
The jungle is your head
Can’t rule your heart
A feeling is so much stronger than
A thought
Your eyes are wide
And though your soul
It can’t be bought
I can’t stand the beats
I’m asking for the cheque
The girl with crimson nails
Has Jesus round her neck
Swinging to the music
Swinging to the music
Oh oh oh oh"
Its fourth class stuff in fairness, and the "u2 by numbers" backing track is little better.
:eek: :eek:Quote:

Why then?
When they started writing Pop?
Just thought of another one that I'd probably be on my own on.
Fools Gold.
I just don't like to consider the Roses as a dance band.
Oasis - She is Love
Nirvana - Radio Friendly Unit Shifter
Strokes - Evening Shade
How Soon Is Now by The Smiths
Suedehead by Morrissey
Circlesquare by The Wonderstuff
Wherever I May Roam by Metallica
Praise You by Fat Boy Slim
Friends In Time by The Golden Horde
You're deffo on your own, Fools Gold is a classic.Quote:

Prince - Whole chunks of his slushy psuedo R&B rubbish, stick to the funk man.
The current single from the Manics (with Nina from The Cardigans).
I don't know what it is called, but i cringe when I hear it on the radio.
Pretty much everything from David Bowie between the mid-80s to the late 90s.
I like that one! I nominate William , it was really Nothing , never liked that tuneQuote:

The Cure-Love Cats or Friday (I'm in love).
Echo & the Bunnymen-Killing Moon-Dancing Horses
Killers-Somebody told me.
Killers - Midnight Show
Coldplay - Twisted Logic
Arctic Monkeys - Perhaps Vampires...
Eminem - Kim
Manic Street Preachers - Intense Humming of Evil
So basically anything that gets overplayed. All 4 are good songs IMOQuote:

Not really,The Cure & Bunnymen songs I quoted are too light-weight imo compared toQuote:

I suppose its a personal preference:) .
Well I'm not a fan of either band (maby the bunnymen a little) so I know they're totally out of sync with their other stuff... (And I wouldn't be a huge fan of those songs either)
Cut The Crap album from The Clash,how they could come up this after everything that went before.
To be fair it did contain D'ya know what i mean , Dont go Away , My Big Mouth , Stand by Me and even All Around the world , which imo were all good Oasis songs . probably could have done with tighter production and cutting at least 2-3 minutes from the first and last songs i mentioned.Quote:

No it was crap from start to finishQuote:
