Songs You Love To Hate

[spookboy0]

What are the songs that, while you can't stand them, can't get enough of them?

[Song] - [Artist]

For me...

Dance, Dance - Fall Out Boy
Hollaback Girl - Gwen Stefani
Pop - N*SYNC

ANYTHING by Simple Plan and Blink-182

So what about you?

 

[Aqualung]

I love to hate all 90s music (except for the occaisional group) and all hip-hop/rap/R&B.

 

[Bishka]

Anything by N'Sync or Backstreet Boys

 

[ChrisP]

KISS. I hate them, honestly.

 

[SoliDeoGloria]

I still have yet to understand what people like so much about The Doors, Led Zeplin, Danzig, any rap that has been put out after the year 1993, any hip hop, etc. I'd probably better stop before I make a lot more enemies.

Sincerely,

Led Zep are still the best blues rock/blues metal and the Original Heavy Metal group. if you're not into that style I can understand it, they're pretty distinctive... heard any of their live stuff?

 

[Darkdale]

Anything by the Black Eyed Peas or the White Stripes.

 

[jeffrey]

Michel Jackson, Billie Jean and Thriller. I hate them because of who sung them, but I'll secretly listen to them when I'm alone..... As far as just sure hate, anything by Barry Manalow... And I hope I spelled his name wrong. UGH!

Led Zep rocks! :jam: I only heard one live album years ago and was not impressed.

 

[Smoke]

There are a lot of songs I hate, like anything by Bobby Goldsboro, and anything by Paul McCartney since the Beatles broke up. But when I think of songs I really hate, the very first one that springs to mind is "Last Kiss":

Oh, where oh where can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me
She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good
So I can see my baby when I leave this world.
​

Just when I had almost forgotten this maudlin drivel, those idiots in Pearl Jam released a cover of it. :banghead3 Look for their next album, Pearl Jam Performs the Songs of Bobby Goldsboro.

But I don't love to hate those songs, I just hate them. I hope I never hear them again.

 

[Mike182]

i love to hate anything by westlife, blin182, Garath Gates, and many others i can't think of right now

 

[Smoke]

What I actually love to hate -- that is, I think it's crap but I like listen to it anyway -- is practically anything by Garth Brooks.

 

[ayani]

i hate most contemporary pop- especially "chick pop".

that whiny, complaining, faux-soulful garbage that junks up the airwaves.

also- smooth jazz, british emo pop.... etc.

 

[SoliDeoGloria]

I've heard many state that Jimmy Hendrix was the originator of heavy metal, which is a statement I can actually agree with. As far as live stuff goes, I've found that live renditions are usually worse then the recorded renditions so I could really care less about hearing any of their live stuff. If it is any consolation, my parents have all of their original albums along with many others.

(edit) sometimes when I hear that song by Led Zeplin with the chorus "want a whole lotta love", I substitute the beginning lyrics with "You need koolaid, baby I got koolaid..."

Wow, The Doors, Led Zeppelin, and Danzig are three of my favorite bands!

I love to hate anything by Shakira and John Mayer. I really don't like that style of music at all, but I still find myself knowing all the words to their songs (yes, even Shakira's Spanish lyrics)...

 

[mrscardero]

Rap or anything with profanity. I don't need to hear music or lyrics with bad language in it. Ruins the music and the sound for me.

Don't worry Soli, I understand.

The Doors on vinyl are quite good, however in the latter part of their career they were notoriously poor in concert. Jimbo was a little too given to excess.

On the other hand, I simply did not overly like Robert Plants voice prior to seeing them Live. In all honesty, Led Zeppelin is perhaps the most stunning live act, original lineup, that any band ever attained. Even Pink Floyd didn't hit the sheer energy of the music.
(I have seen both bands twice, and Robert Plant again on his first solo tour with Phil Collins playing drums.)




What songs do I hate?

Anything by Hank Snow. (You may as well claw a blackboard or torture a cat.)
Anything by the Blackwatch Bagpipers.

I have unpleasant memories locked into both.

 

[cardero]

In the "nails on the blackboard but I would lick the blackboard aftrerwards" department.
Dale Bozzio of Missing Persons
Lene Lovich is very annoying, I cannot stop listening to her
Nina Hagen is someone who butcher's the human singing voice but I enjoy her style immensely.

 

[Aqualung]

What I actually love to hate -- that is, I think it's crap but I like listen to it anyway -- is practically anything by Garth Brooks.

I love hating all country, not just him.

Dude! You're making me too jealous!

Yeah, Led Zep LIVE! Ok so Robert plant is not so good to listen to recorded, but the rest of the band are hands down the best exponents of hard rock EVER.
