I was discussing this today at work. What songs are you truly tired of. Not necessarily songs you hate but songs that are played out and you think 'If i never heard that again i wouldn't miss it'. It can be a track by a band you love or dislike. Heres mine

Queen - Another One Bites The Dust(Its got to be the longest 4 minute song ever)
John Lennon - Imagine (Makes me want to puke really, even though i love its intentions)
REM - Losing My Religion - (Another song that seems to go on and on)
U2 - Pride (It sounded good back then but now with Bono's ego it has to go)
Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit (I hated grunge)

and songs because they're simply terrible and played to death.

Gloria Gaynor - I will Survive
ABBA - Gimme Gimme Gimme (i could pick several ABBA songs)
Slade - Merry Xmas Everybody - (had to pick one xmas song, its this one)

and one Prince song

Lets Go Crazy - No need to hear it again

Most of the stuff on the Hot 100 right now

That song "Wild Wild West" or something like that

These are songs that I really like,but I'm sick of hearing them:

"Between The Sheets" by the Isley Bros.
"Sexual Healing" by Marvin Gaye
"Very Special" by Debra Laws
"Always And Forever" by Heatwave
"Too Tight" by Con Funk Shun
"Brick House" by The Commodores
"You Are My Lady" by Freddie Jackson

Radio stations devoted to Old School songs drive me crazy They pick one or two songs by each artist and play these same songs over and over and over.There was a time when I could listen to the songs above,but now I have to switch the station when these songs come on.

Love Shack - the B-52s

the woo woo song makes me upset.

Anything by Shitney.

ALL Nirvana tracks. Can't stand 'em.
Any track by Fray/Hinder/Nickelback and any band in the same vein.

I never liked that song, either.

I'm sorry, people, but Hotel California by The Eagles is piloting this ship and heading it directly into the sun never to be seen or heard again. Love The Eagles, and I don't want to ever ever ever hear that one again. Ever. Seriously. Ever. I won't miss it one bit.

I'm not exactly sure how to take that?

TommyRoss said:

It's how I say Merry Christmas.

And that you can't get rid of Hotel California. It's worth it for the guitars. What the hell is that emoticon you used though? I can't figure it out.

Stairway. To. Heaven.


Please let it die.

npgmaverick said:

You get a double for that one.

I hardly ever hear Stairway on the classic rock stations anymore to be honest. I think they stopped playing it so much because of people like you complaining. (and Dan up there too. I know he hates it as well ) Although I personally feel that people think it's cool to make fun of it and complain that they hear it all the time when really, they stopped over-playing it long ago. It's become sort of like making fun of Kenny G. or something. EVERYONE has to do it.


Now here are some they play WAY too much:

Guns n Roses - Paradise City

Bruce Springsteen - Born in the U.S.A.

Santana - Black Magic Woman

Fleetwood Mac - Rhiannon

The Rolling Stones - Brown Sugar

Steve Miller Band - The Joker

The Clash - Rock the Casbah

and these that wildheartxxx already mentioned....

REM - Losing My Religion

U2 - Pride

Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit

It's a smiley who has packed his suitcase and is waving goodbye with a hankie.

TommyRoss said:

Oh I thought it was waving around a pair of underwear. There is one like that actually.

minneapolisgenius said:

Oh, that's a smiley? I thought it was you leaving the Cream reunion.

Storm said:

i am SO serious. that song causes me much woe woe!

TommyRoss said:

Either that or or the Robert Plant show last year. Or me next month at the Jarvis Cocker show.

Anx said:

That's just because you only heard the William Hung version.

minneapolisgenius said:

i'd probably like THAT version.

Anx said:

Oh no you wouldn't.

If you listened to the same Oldies R&B station that I listen to,you'd be sick of those songs too

That's the way they do down here also. If they play a jam like "Too Tight" in your area, at least it's a full-fledged R&B station. The one down here played mainly crossover R&B shit from the 60s and 70s over and over. Then, they started included 80s songs. Then they changed their format to include pop/rock songs from the 60s and 70s. Now, they have started included pop/rock songs from the 80s.

They started using a slogan...."You'll never hear the same song twice in a day". They just don't get it. It's not the format that people are getting sick of. It's hearing the same damn songs over and over from that era. They brag about not playing the same song twice in a day but with all those decades, they should have enough stuff to play without hearing the same song for at least a month.

I wish I could get sick of that. Bay area here I come.

Based on the past couple of weeks I'd have to say:

Wham! - 'Last Christmas'
Paul McCartney - 'Wonderful Christmastime'
Mariah Carey - 'All I Want for Christmas is You'


Any other time of year:
Queen - 'Bohemian Rhapsody'
Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder - 'Ebony and Ivory'
Billy Joel - 'Honesty'
Carpenters - 'Top of the World'
Carpenters - 'Close to You'
