Bands that you can't stand
-
There's plenty of stuff that appeals to me. Plenty of stuff I don't like to listen to it all. Some that I absolutely love and some I can't stand.
I'm not necessarily right and they aren't necessarily wrong, just whatever strikes my fancy. For a lot of different reasons.
One side thought I've often had is that the person who claims 'well I like all kinds of music' probably really doesn't love any of it. Maybe?
My number one request of all time is brown eyed girl. I don't particularly find it foul but I'm puzzled that so many people find this to be the one song above any other to bring joy and meaning to their lives.

Maybe because 68% of American women have Brown eyes.
Someone should write a song called "right-handed woman" it should appeal to the masses too.

By that logic, Z, the most popular song in the world should be "Bitch" by The Rolling Stones.

Bands that I can't stand: Anything that came from the eighties.
I put the Sirius radio station on the 80s channel and I can't last one song.
I'm not talking acts from the 60' and 70's that had huge success in the 80s (Springsteen, MJ, Rolling Stones, Bowie).
I am talking actual 80's bands, acts that were born and made their bread in the 80's: (Madonna, INXS, Hair Bands, Flock of Seagulls, Bananarama, Culture Club, Thompson Twins, on and on and on) I hate all of them. OK, not all of them, I'm sure someone could name one that I like. But the sounds from the 80s sucks.
Pop was over synthesized, Rock went glam and produced dumb anthems produced by dickwads covered in hairspray.
U2 ... OK, they have some good stuff. And Prince, but he's really from the 70's. And I'm not really crazy about either of them either.

I actually like a lot of that stuff. (and Prince really is from the 80s....he may have put out one obscure record in the 70s...but all his know stuff was 80s)

Dedicated to Z because of what he want to do to us all:

I own Culture Club greatest hits and love almost every song on it.

Jeezus.
I loved the 80's. It was the greatest decade of my life. I was 15-26 years old, so those were some prime booze-hounding, skirt-chasing days. I even had a full head of hair. And the Browns were good!
But the music sucked. I am jealous of my older brothers and sister who had a 70s sound track to go along with their partying years ... not Tears for Fears and Wang Chung.

I really love new wave and the 80s music. Different strokes. Tears for fears and Wang chimg each had multiple songs I like and that's more than I can say for a lot of acts.

While I agree that "My era's" music was better...60s/70s.....I still liked a lot of the 80s...including TFF and Wang Chung.
Now....you get into 90s music....that is where I lost attention to much of the music except a bit here or there.

A lot of crap in the seventies boys.
I love, and hate, a pretty wide variety of stuff. I get shit from people for not loving what they love but there's probably more music on both sides I'm familiar with and have feelings one way or the other about.

I mean the 70s was the disco era.
And you had shit like "Honey"....a lot of syrupy crappy stuff. Roberta Flack, Maureen McGovern, "Seasons in the Sun" Minnie Riperton, Captain and Tenille. Convoy.
Boogie Oogie Oogie.
The Pina Colada song.
Hell, that's probably the shit that Zombo liked!

Ya there was gay shit in the the 70's too.
There is gay shit in every decade.
But 70's classic rock is awesome.

OK, but here is my case about the 1990s. Look at the top selling artists.
Hell 1970s holdover Aerosmith is the only real band in like the Top 20 unless you count Boyz II Men or TLC.
Hootie and the Blowfish, REM, U2 are down in the 40s.

Ya, you got a point there, pretty lame list overall.
I guess I just stopped paying attention in the 90's because I was already listening to classic rock on the radio and in my home.
In the 80's everybody my age heard the same music and was forcefed the same videos. but in the 90's you could kinda find your genre and go with it. And then the internet blew up. So easy to just find what you like now, and tune out the other stuff.

The thing is....the 90s must have been a totally chick dominated era. Celine Dion, Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, Madonna, Janet Jackson, Shania Twain.
You can hardly find a dude on this list.

I freakin hate the song "Rock Me Amadeus".
