Costanza Posted July 30 7 hours ago, Marvin said: With working from home since March (and hospitalisation) I have been listening to Radio 6. However at least 3 or 4 times in my working day I've noticed they insist on playing Televised Mind by Fontaine DC. I've heard it that often, I now switch off when it is played. Hate it even, it's not even that good a song. I quite like that song in comparison to their earlier stuff, which was just typical Steve Lamacq approved Indie. My most hated song of all time is Dancing In The Moonlight by Toploader but then that is just clearly sh1te. American Pie by Don McLean also grinds my gears, possibly from having mates who played it loads when I was younger and it being seen as an accepted classic, when it's just an irritating extended piece of absolute w*nk. Also, the Grease mega mix as a nadir of school discos (even worse than Black Lace). I don't completely hate this as they're my favourite band but Jetstream by New Order is awful, was embarrassing watching them hawk that around TV shows as a single and I still find it pretty much unlistenable.

It doesn't help that people down here assume that, being Scottish, "500 miles" must be my favourite song. Then they say... but what about the harmonies? Screw that... if I want harmonies, I'll listen to the Evs. As far as I'm concerned, there's only one pair of Reid siblings worth bothering about. Don't actually mind The Proclaimers that much: there are and have been a lot worse than them kicking around. (That doesn't mean they're not ugly, speccy, dwarf-shaggin', h1b5 erseholes though!)

Cruyff Posted July 31 (edited) Sweet Child of Mine by Guns n Roses makes me want to punch myself in the face. It just seems to have that effect on me. Pretty much anything by Coldplay is awful. If you wanted to torture someone, I think playing Dancing in the Moonlight by Toploader, maybe 3 times, would be enough for them to break. Everything is changing by that wank band Keane? 🤔 Horrible. Pretty much anything played on Heart Radio. Edited July 31 by Cruyff Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thommo414 Posted July 31 Working in a supermarket, all I hear every day is a constant mix of vanilla, beige, namby pamby, shite that appeals to either, hipster wankfaces or people born before 1960. So here’s a selection... Perfect by Ed Sheeran, weepy shite that actually sends me into a deep, hateful ****ing rage. If it wasn’t bad enough to hear it once, there’s a duet with Beyoncé (double rage) that gives the ****ers the right to think they can play it again as it’s a different song. If both versions are out the way early enough into my 8 hour shift, I can get lucky enough to have yet another listen. Save Tonight by Eagle Eye Cherry Wow by Kylie Minogue Senorita by Shawn Mendes and Camilla Cabello The rest of Shawn Mendes’ discography Anything by the Beach Boys with a special mention for Good Vibrations Luckily the evil overlords don’t seem to have discovered Coldplay, so that’s something. Apart from that: most Calvin Harris songs, anything by the Beatles as a band or collective that isn’t Hey Jude, anything by ABBA, Mr ****ing Blue Sky and I’m sure many more that I’ve tried to block out. Oh and someone mentioned Mr Brightside by the Killers, that one can gtf as well Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

frankblack Posted August 1 +1 for any of these so called "singer songwriters" who are glorified buskers with songs that all sound the same. I used to think these people got booked as support acts at gigs because they only had to plug in their acoustic guitar. The only conclusion I have is that these people have no mates and can't form a proper band. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
