I absolutely hate "Bye Bye Miss American Pie". It has got to be one of the most depressing songs of all time. It sounds like a dying cow.

"You Light Up My Life" is another horrible one.

I like that song. Whitney Houston sang it on "Just Whitney", and it sounded rally good. I also like Jean Carn`s version nod

So far most of the songs listed I think were good, and they were very popular too.
I guess I will nominate "Trying To Get The Feeling Again" by Barry Manilow as a song from the 70s that sucks.
"Did u love somebody
But got no love in return?
Did u understand the real meaning of love?
That it just is and never yearns"

I really don't like that song I don't know who sings it or what the name is but you know that song

"I'm a joker
I'm a smoker
I'm a midnight toker..."

Uggh...that song really grates on my nerves. It makes me think of middle aged men sitting in a small town bar in Wisconson or something.

As far as Disco classics go, 'Boogie Wonderland' by Earth Wind & Fire has just been played TOO many times. I can't even stomach watching the video anymore.

The Eagles' 'Hotel California' is another supposed classic that makes me feel nauseous.

Ah yeah, 'The Joker'. Used in that damn Levis ad and criminally stopped Deee-Lite's 'Groove Is In The Heart' from reaching #1 in the UK in 1990 because they sold exactly the same number of copies, but that one had the biggest increase compared to the previous week so got to take the top spot mad

I love Don Henley's solo stuff - I'm ashamed to say I actually like Lisa Marie Presley's version of 'Dirty Laundry' too. But I really can't stomach The Eagles. They just remind me of long car journeys as a kid with my mum blasting it out against everyone's will.

i agree with you on these two--"boogie wonderland" works my absolute last nerve since it's been played to death on every radio disco program, and "hotel california" i still like, but in very small doses. i heard that song a lot as a kid because i used to listen to the local classic rock station all the time and they'd play the HELL outta "hotel california". ill

That song used to really depress me. In a good way though. lol I love that one song " I'm trying to get down, to the heart of the matter.....forgivness, forgivness...even if even if you don't love me anymore..." That is a GREAT song! biggrin
