Songs you just cannot listen to

Post by Hibsclaret » Thu Oct 24, 2019 11:18 pm

There are a few of these threads going about best and worst songs etc. However, this one is for ones you just cannot listen to for whatever reason.

Mine would be anything by the Verve (or Richard Ashcroft).

Used to like them in the late 90’s actually but every time I hear anything by them now i have to turn it off as I become immediately maudlin to the point of instant depression. It is really strange but I need to switch off....very quickly

Bryan Adams - (Everything I do) I do it for you.

Played at the funeral of a good mate of mine who died of melanoma at the tender age of 38.

I still have to turn it off or walk out of the building, even after 30 years.

Anything by Queen or the Bee Gees. It isn't pleasant to listen to.

That **** song where it just says West end girls about fifty times then he speaks a little bit to the same 4 bars of electro shite. Dogger.

Breakfast at Tiffany's. You ever read the lyrics? It's just some boring conversation between two dead beats.

Edit: oh, and 'Parklife' abysmal.

Happy Friday everyone!

Whitney Houston - I will always love you. Rather listen to a Pneumatic drill.
Dolly's original was ok though

I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing - Aerosmith, they'd played it at the funeral of one of my mate's mum. Him and his brother were 17 and 14 at the time. Still haunts me every time.

I quite like Oasis but for some reason I never got why Wonderwall and Don't Look Back In Anger were their go to songs, they're decent enough but they have much better.
