PLAYED OUT...

[Jimbo]

There are certain songs that are over-played. There are some that are exceptionally bad. But sometimes, when ill-fortune and lack of talent combine, a song can be over-played AND exceptionally bad. Here is a short list of those songs which I hope never to hear ever, ever again.

 

Ever.

 

We Built This City (crap on a stick)

 

If You Leave Me Now (eat the stick, crap it out, and put it on another stick)

 

Come On Eileen (possibly the most offensive title to make the top 40)

 

We Didn't Start the Fire (but we wish we had so we could toss every copy of this song into it)

 

You could disagree. But you would be wrong.

 

Next?

[Geoff]

Literally 99% of all songs I have ever heard on the radio - no joke.

[metalhead69]

KISS - ROCK & ROLL ALL NITE (I love KISS & all but I would like to grab FM radio programmers & scream "KISS RECORDED MORE THAN 1 F*CKING SONG, ASSH*LE!!!)

 

QUIET RIOT - CUM ON FEEL THE NOIZE (same as above)

 

OZZY OSBOURNE - CRAZY TRAIN (used to really love this song until it got run into the ground on classic rock radio & all sporting events)

 

POISON - UNSKINNY BOP ( )

 

BAHA MEN - WHO LET THE DOGS OUT (did this really win a grammy????)

 

BOBBY McFERRIN - DON'T WORRY BE HAPPY ( )

 

STYX - MR. ROBOTO (horrible! do I need say more?)

 

SOUNDGARDEN - BLACK HOLE SUN (I like most of their stuff but this song just grates on my last nerve. )

 

and anything by PEARL JAM, PUDDLE OF MUD or CREED..............

[Rockposer]

More Than Words - Extreme

[Blue Charvel]

You could disagree. But you would be wrong.

Haha, I say that all the time... and I agree with your picks.

[Fat Freddy]

Two that come to mind for me right away:

 

AC/DC - "You Shook Me All Night Long" - great band, it was once a great song but it has become SO overplayed that GOD DAMMIT I never ever want to hear this song again!! Last time I saw AC/DC on the "Ballbreaker" tour they actually opened the set with this one... at first I was like "Gack," but then reasoned "Well, at least they're getting it out of the way early..."

 

Metallica - "Enter Sandman" -- again, great song when it first came out, nearly twenty years later it's been abso-frickin-lutely run into the ground.

Backed. Especially since it's been taken over by every sports league in America.

[heaven&hell]

Bon Jovi - You Give Love a Bad Name & Livin on a Prayer.

 

Both are great songs but damn I have heard them way to many times.

[phaffas]

AC/DC - anything by them!
