CLASSIC SONGS YOU TURN UP, OR TURN OFF.
Driving in my car I noticed, some old songs I still love, and some I don't ever need to hear again. Even tho I think they are great. C.C.R.S' Green River Turn up! THE EAGLES' Hotel California Turn off! Anybody else care to add to this?

Somehow I'm curious to listen to just about anything at some point or another. That doesn't mean I like it all, just I am curious about it all. But I can give a simple example or two of a couple bands I don't listen to unless they come up on the radio but will turn up with their first singer and off with their second most likely (unless I just feel curious): ACDC Van Halen

Disagree with Fleetwood Mac being run into the ground. They are one band that I still turn UP. Especially "The Chain" or "Never Going Back".

and the intensely annoying 'Shiny Happy People' Why do people love these irritating songs so?
3/14/2008, 4:09 AM
God Carl Losing My Religion-How annoying and intensely overplayed is that song ? I'd add End Of The World (and We Know it) and grrrrr Everybody Hurts to that list too..
3/14/2008, 3:18 AM
Anything by Bee Gees '74-'77 turn up! REM's "The One I Love" turn up! REM's "Losing My Religion" turn down any requests for clemency and execute it Anything off "A Bigger Bang" (and I love the Stones) - turn into skeet shooting disc Anything solo by Sting - turn into melted plastic and hope noxious gasses arrive at his villa in Tuscany and...ANYTHING by Aerosmith featuring scenes with "actresses" related to lead singer: turn out light, let meteor strike Earth in order to not hear song again

Oh cool John..LISTS!!! I love doing 'em.. Its weird with radio..Thinking about it,for me there's great songs that have withstood alot of playing and i still love (Born To Run,Superstition,Layla)..Then there's fundamentally great songs that have become really annoying from total overplaying (Hotel California,Bohemian Rhapsody,Dancing Queen) I've reserved special categories of contempt at the bottom,for dreadful,dreadful songs i hated when they came out-and STILL have to suffer them,'cos they're played so much..

"Crazy Love"---- by Van the Man---- turn up "Brown Eyed Girl "---also by Van ---enough already! -----still play it in our covers----

I agree with both of those! Harry Nilsson - Jump into the Fire Heard it the other day and cranked it. One of those songs that never got played a lot but still gets played once in a while. So simple but what a great groove. Herbie Flowers on bass and Chris Spedding on guitars. Old Time Rock & Roll by Bob Seger. Jeez, enough already.
