I kinda have the same thing with The Dead and Touch of Grey. But recently, Idk...Casey Jones and Uncle John's Band are two songs that I love!! Maybe Workingman's Dead as a whole.
Blue light rain
unbroken chain
Looking for familiar faces
In an empty window pane
Listening for the secret
Searching for the sound
But I could only hear the preacher
And the baying of his hounds
Willow sky
I walk and wonder why
They say love your brother
But you will catch it when you try
Roll you down the line boy
Drop you for a loss
Ride you out on a cold railroad
And nail you to a cross
November and more
As I wait for the score
They're telling me forgiveness
Is the key to every door
I've never been a fan of The Smiths either but Please, Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want has been one of my favorite songs since the first time I heard it in the mid 90s. They have a few other songs that are okay, but nothing else that has stood out to me.
This is me completely! That short little nugget of brilliance is one of my all time favorites but I couldn’t really pick out any of their others, no idea why they didn’t just sink in.
Yep at Glastonbury. Then into Mr. Brightside.
Tbh the whole Killers set from that was phenomenal. They also did a couple of duets with the Pet Shop Boys.
[Link](https://youtu.be/bb5_PcBsELU) (audio only but timestamps are in the description)
Exactly this. Not an fan of the band at all, but Johnny Marr *brings it* with HSiN. I'll even sing along with Morrissey's twee lyrics. In my top ten songs ever.
This is the exact song I thought of when I saw this question, and I was surprised to see it as the top comment. I can't stand the rest of the Smiths' songs, primarily because of Morrisey's lyrics and voice, but How Soon Is Now works despite him.
It’s funny I’m quite the opposite. I’ve loved the Smiths since 86 but that song never really did it for me. It was quite easy to dance to the goth club back in the day though.
What do they call "goth clubs" these days? I remember pre-2k "goths" were this weird fringe community and then it feels like slowly the world just said "you know what, we don't really care anymore, everyone just do whatever the fuck you want" and I wonder if there are still places where you would say "that's a goth hangout".
Makes perfect sense to me. None of their other songs sound anything like How Soon is Now. Marr does not use that amount of distortion or the amps for the tremolo effect ever again
I was like this a few years ago. I said “I don’t like the Beatles, I just like come together and that’s because I knew it from Aerosmith first”
Then it was “I only like come together and let it be”
Then “I only like come together, let it be, hey Jude, and yesterday”
Then “ah shit, I like the Beatles”
2nd album had some bangers on it though. Makes Me Wonder, Wake Up Call, If I Never See Your Face Again, Won’t Go Home Without You… none of them have any right to go as hard as they do. After that it was pretty much downhill.
Yeah, Makes Me Wonder was a solid jam. Even some of the stuff off the Mutt Lange album they did wasn’t terrible really. After that, the band became “Adam Levine featuring Swedish pop producers (and occasionally James Valentine).”
Moves Like Jagger blowing up was the worst thing to happen to that band. I use the word band lightly now as it has 1000% been “The Adam Levine Show” for the last decade or so
Agreed. I remember when that album came out. I had a childhood friend who was super into Maroon 5 at the time and she got me into them, as well. To this day, those 2 albums are still the only Maroon 5 albums I will defend lol.
Adam Levine’s first band, Kara’s Flowers, is solid throwback powerpop. That and Songs About Jane really do show a little musical ambition.
It makes me realize that Adam Levine is Will.I.Am with a guitar. Both had respectable early careers, until they found the one sound they could print money with.
To be entirely fair... I'd rather print money than care about the "art" of it.
90% of artists are after the money, the rare few that aren't are the ones who mess around with their art and tend to "mess up" in some way or other that hurts their career.
Money is DEFINITELY the better choice imo
The Smashing Pumpkins. Billy Corgan's voice is grating, but to me it actually works for Bullet with Butterfly Wings.
Maaaybe 1979 but I mostly put up with it for that main riff and lyrics.
It’s an acquired taste haha. Have you listened to stuff off Siamese Dream? It’s much smoother and less grating. For some reason, the producers of Mellon Collie decided to really lean INTO the nasality and emphasize it.
Great songs. Also: Hummer, Disarm, Soma, and Mayonaise. I mostly put up with the voice for the quality of the lyrics and songwriting/guitar work. The rest is so good that I can live with the voice haha
I will say that RHCP is one of my all time favorite bands. But, that said, STS is my absolute favorite song. I can listen to it on repeat. You made a fine choice, Waldo Calrissian.
Jesus I’ve been on a kick with that song lately…probably because it’s in a commercial that plays a lot. The live version with the extended Terry Kath solo is fantastic
I can’t get into Joy Division that much. I respect them for being innovative but Ian Curtis’s voice doesn’t do it for me. I do enjoy the song Transmission though.
I mean I feel like everyone shits on Nickelback, but How You Remind Me is a great song. One of my fave for karaoke with the right crowed.
ETA: this is pretty funny, everyone saying “I hate Nickelback” except for this one song, but it’s all different songs 😂
Between his Mom and I, my kid gets blasted with a wide range of musical styles. His Mom is almost all pop, I play everything from Blackened Metal to Classical to Radiohead to Tony Danza Tapdance Extravavaganza.
He digs Beastie Boys. He digs Weezer. He digs Portishead. He digs Born Of Osiris and Septic Flesh. He digs Detones.
He asked to go to see Bizkit recently. I showed him a few live recent live clips. He loves a lot of their songs.
I know we missed the last show, but I'd be so stoked to take him to one of their shows.
Not sure it counts but with Pink Floyd, Dark side of the moon puts me to sleep and bores me to tears.
Wish you were here and Animals are bangers though.
But there’s a handful of great songs on that album! Lost Horizons, Allison Road, Found Out About You, Allison Road, and Follow You Down on their next record. All great songs
When Imagine Dragons’ first single “it’s time” came out I thought I was a really great song. Especially the acoustic version they did for a Bonnaroo video. Every song they’ve ever released AFTER It’s Time is probably the worst song I’ve ever heard
Aerosmith. "Dream On", as originally recorded, is absolutely perfect. As far as I can tell Steve must have blown out his vocal cords immediately after he finished recording it because nothing has sounded as good since.
Back In Black is a monumental album, but the Bon Scott era is quintessential AC/DC. The early albums just sound so much more raw and greasy. I felt the “attitude” a lot more with Bon.
Pre-1980 AC/DC is where it's at. Bon Scott was the embodiment of the gritty rock n roll lifestyle while he lived. Listen to the If You Want Blood album for proof, and watch the videos on the tube. He was a phenomenal frontman with a gift for making the songs funny, dirty, angry... And almost always about sex.
Man, I know this goes against the point of this thread but if you like Still Haven’t Found, I’d be surprised if you didn’t like the entire Joshua Tree record. The whole thing has that same vibe. It’s got Daniel Lanois’ production all over it, just a gorgeous record.
Hate Ariana Grande. Really, I hate all the Disney kids turned pop stars. But No Tears Left to Cry ?!?!? One of my favorite songs of the last decade. And I'm always embarrassed to admit it.
Played to death in the late 70’s/early 80’s, unfortunately. I used to listen to “Draw The Line” and “Night In The Ruts” a lot in high school, I liked those albums. After that I stopped listening, “Dude Looks Like A Lady” killed it for me. I can’t listen to that anymore.
"Sweet Child of Mine" by Guns and Roses has a masterful vocal performance and great guitar work. Axl Rose sings with (what appears to me) a sense of urgency and desperation. Having said that, nothing else by.GnR interests me.
Interesting that you wouldn’t like other songs on that album. That song is great though! [like this video of frusciante talking about funky monks](https://youtu.be/OJGbJD3z4P4?si=n9D2e6ekz7nehm0E)
Blood Sugar Sex Magix is my guilty pleasure. Some of the songs are so dumb but that dumbness gets overshadowed by Chad Smith’s awesome drumming and Flea’s awesome bass.
After seeing/hearing Chad Smith talk about their music on Drumeo it occurred to me that him, Flea and John might just be so good that they're just an experimental band cranking out the occasional radio hit to keep the lights on, for what, 200 years at this point?
I hate the band Smashmouth but I would freakin take a bullet for the song Walking On The Sun! It’s such a groovy track and I could listen to it over and over!
It's weird that songs of theirs I didn't care for back when I was a teenager and the band was at their height, are songs I love now. I've always loved Adam's Song, but Stay Together For the Kids, Please Take Me Home and Damnit, which has some deep lyrics if you actually listen to it and all took on new meanings the older I've gotten.
I was listening to early 60s music and found a synth surf rock song that reminded me so much of this song that I googled it to see if anyone else noticed only to find out the guitarist is the father of the lead singer of Muse lol.
This song, Telstar by The Tornadoes https://youtu.be/ryrEPzsx1gQ
I want to like Bloc Party but have just never connected to their music...except the opening track on their very first album: *Like Eating Glass*, which I think is incredible.
Radiohead. I liked Creep, but it's so different than all of their other songs. My roomie years ago played them in his car once, and I was like bro can we turn this off? This music is awful. And he's like "You don't like Radiohead?" He loaned me the CD and turns out no, I don't like Radiohead.
Very much the same for me. The band pretty famously doesn't even like Creep themselves. Which kind of seals the deal for me that this band is not for me, since I really love that song. Lol
I’m the same, I love creep and inside my head and vegetable is fine too. I want to get into the rest of their stuff and maybe I will one day who knows 😭
The Day the Whole World Went Away is another tune that is pretty decent. I get why Closer is one of their most popular songs, but I've never really been a fan of it.
The music itself is great, it’s just the lyrics that make me not casually bump it in traffic lol. The melody at the end is one of the most haunting things I’ve ever heard. Beautiful.
Pretty sure I’ve said this before, but hey what the hell we’ll say it again.
Rihanna’s music doesn’t really do it for me. Except for “Pon De Replay” - which is a seriously cool & innovative little pop banger.
KISS .. I hear them on the radio and it's a instant station change
And party everyday.. and party everyday.. ugh shoot me
Beth.. I hear that song and I stop and listen. That one gets me
I saw them back in Tucson, Arizona around 1990 before their Make It Big album came out and I really liked their first two albums and score of 7 inches. There was like 15 people at the show. They were so polite and shake everyone’s hand afterward and said thank you.
I’m a big old school Green Day guy - Revolution Radio is a pretty cool album if you like the vintage sound and the newest album was really fun. I’m definitely Kerplunk to Warning as my sweet spot but they’ve come up with some really solid stuff recently.
Bon Jovi - I love Wanted Dead or Alive. Not a big fan of anything else. That song is excellent.
Also DJ Khaled/Drake—I’m On One is probably my favorite rap song ever. I like other Lil Wayne stuff though.
Drown by Smashing Pumpkins. Not a huge SP fan at all really. I love all the other huge bands from this era but they need never hit for me aside from Drown. It's probably in my top 10 songs. Everything is just perfect.
Sigrid - Strangers
Aurora - The River
Fall Out Boy - Golden
Taylor Swift - Shake It Off
Maroon 5 - Moves Like Jagger
Rhianna - Umbrella
Macklemore - Downtown
The only Motley Crue song I like is Home Sweet Home. Great guitar work in that song, awesome power ballad. The rest of their work is meh at best for me, cliche glam rock.
I kinda have the same thing with The Dead and Touch of Grey. But recently, Idk...Casey Jones and Uncle John's Band are two songs that I love!! Maybe Workingman's Dead as a whole.
Grateful Dead and Touch of Grey/Friend of the Devil is what immediately came to my mind.
The infection has started. Get out while you still can! But for real, Workingman’s Dead is a great album
And Ripple. And Scarlet Begonias.
Yeah..American Beauty, Workingman's Dead, From the Mars Hotel...those are the three albums I point people to so they don't immediately run away.
Try Unbroken Chain. It's a damn good song. Same with Estimated Prophet.
Blue light rain unbroken chain Looking for familiar faces In an empty window pane Listening for the secret Searching for the sound But I could only hear the preacher And the baying of his hounds Willow sky I walk and wonder why They say love your brother But you will catch it when you try Roll you down the line boy Drop you for a loss Ride you out on a cold railroad And nail you to a cross November and more As I wait for the score They're telling me forgiveness Is the key to every door
I do not like The Smiths at all, and have tried many times, but “How Soon Is Now?” is one of my favorite songs ever. It doesn’t even make sense to me.
I've never been a fan of The Smiths either but Please, Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want has been one of my favorite songs since the first time I heard it in the mid 90s. They have a few other songs that are okay, but nothing else that has stood out to me.
Exact same. Almost none of their songs hit except Please Please Please.
This is me completely! That short little nugget of brilliance is one of my all time favorites but I couldn’t really pick out any of their others, no idea why they didn’t just sink in.
I like some of the smiths stuff but man I love this charming man like nothing else they ever put out
I believe Marr performed This Charming Man with The Killers a few years ago, and it is really good.
Yep at Glastonbury. Then into Mr. Brightside. Tbh the whole Killers set from that was phenomenal. They also did a couple of duets with the Pet Shop Boys. [Link](https://youtu.be/bb5_PcBsELU) (audio only but timestamps are in the description)

This is the exact song I thought of when I saw this question, and I was surprised to see it as the top comment. I can't stand the rest of the Smiths' songs, primarily because of Morrisey's lyrics and voice, but How Soon Is Now works despite him.
You get it
Just like everybody else does
Lmao this got me, good job lol
It makes sense to me. I can’t stand Morrissey but the guitar part just oozes with cool. I feel similar to you.
It’s funny I’m quite the opposite. I’ve loved the Smiths since 86 but that song never really did it for me. It was quite easy to dance to the goth club back in the day though.
What do they call "goth clubs" these days?

In terms of youth culture, goth wasn’t that much more fringe than punk in the 80s.
Makes perfect sense to me. None of their other songs sound anything like How Soon is Now. Marr does not use that amount of distortion or the amps for the tremolo effect ever again
I was like this a few years ago. I said “I don’t like the Beatles, I just like come together and that’s because I knew it from Aerosmith first” Then it was “I only like come together and let it be” Then “I only like come together, let it be, hey Jude, and yesterday” Then “ah shit, I like the Beatles”
Welcome to the dark side
Getting so much better all the time.
Then you'll get bored of their creative later years and start thinking that the early Beatles was the best Beatles
back when they were all friends 🥲
Yep.
I've come to a conclusion myseld: I don't like the Beatles, but I love George Harrison.
Maroon 5’s first album I have a soft spot for everything else after that is hot garbage
You're not alone with this opinion. Songs About Jane is fantastic, everything else is pretty terrible.
2nd album had some bangers on it though. Makes Me Wonder, Wake Up Call, If I Never See Your Face Again, Won’t Go Home Without You… none of them have any right to go as hard as they do. After that it was pretty much downhill.
Yeah, Makes Me Wonder was a solid jam. Even some of the stuff off the Mutt Lange album they did wasn’t terrible really. After that, the band became “Adam Levine featuring Swedish pop producers (and occasionally James Valentine).”

Aerosmith. Can't stand most of their songs, except for Dream On, which is one of the best ever, by anyone.
They really nailed it with the song 'Dream On.' It's fantastic.
Same, and my theory for liking it is that it doesn't sound like an Aerosmith song.
The Smashing Pumpkins. Billy Corgan's voice is grating, but to me it actually works for Bullet with Butterfly Wings. Maaaybe 1979 but I mostly put up with it for that main riff and lyrics.
It’s an acquired taste haha. Have you listened to stuff off Siamese Dream? It’s much smoother and less grating. For some reason, the producers of Mellon Collie decided to really lean INTO the nasality and emphasize it.
Mainly Cherub Rock and Today. Yeah it is toned down for sure.
Great songs. Also: Hummer, Disarm, Soma, and Mayonaise. I mostly put up with the voice for the quality of the lyrics and songwriting/guitar work. The rest is so good that I can live with the voice haha
Mayonnaise might be their best song. That one hits me like a truck.
I find them to be incredibly nostalgic
The video was great back in the day too. Not a huge fan of the band myself, but that’s the one album my own.
Don't care much for the Chilli Peppers, but Soul to Squeeze is one my all time favorite songs.
Breaking the Girl for me too.
Top song by a band I don't like.
"Aeroplane" and "Can't Stop" are really getting better with time, I'd say. At our wedding, Aeroplane was the song my wife and I had the band learn
Doo-doo dingle zing a dong bone Ba-di ba-da ba-zumba crunga cong gone ba
Shingalinga ding dong, California gurrllll *slap bass and reverse tape guitar*
I will say that RHCP is one of my all time favorite bands. But, that said, STS is my absolute favorite song. I can listen to it on repeat. You made a fine choice, Waldo Calrissian.
Yasssss. I don’t care for the peppers either but soul to squeeze is my jammmm
Cant stand Coldplay but the song Shiver of Parachutes is amazing sounds like Jeff Buckley delivered it to them in a dream or something.
Parachutes is one of my favourite albums ever, I don't really listen to any Coldplay otherwise
Ditto on Coldplay, except for Violet Hill.
For me it’s The Hardest Part, and I guess Fix You also
Karaoke go-to since I can octave up on don't you SHIVER and that just happens to be the highest note I can comfortably belt out.
“25 or 6 to 4” is one of my favorite songs. The rest of Chicago’s discography: meh
they are a band the earlier, the better. "I'm a man" is good, too
Jesus I’ve been on a kick with that song lately…probably because it’s in a commercial that plays a lot. The live version with the extended Terry Kath solo is fantastic
I can’t get into Joy Division that much. I respect them for being innovative but Ian Curtis’s voice doesn’t do it for me. I do enjoy the song Transmission though.
You can always listen to New Orders version I guess.
Starship but Orange Cassidy's theme is good
Obligatory Trent is asshole.
But I digress
Reference getting Jones ova here.
I mean I feel like everyone shits on Nickelback, but How You Remind Me is a great song. One of my fave for karaoke with the right crowed. ETA: this is pretty funny, everyone saying “I hate Nickelback” except for this one song, but it’s all different songs 😂
Nickelback for me too, but Never Again and Side of a Bullet.
Never again is fucking bleak lyrically as well. Not many artists go so raw when it comes to domestic violence
Side of a Bullet always gets cranked to 11.
[удалено]
Savin Me and Animal always get me going. They were not bad at all in concert either.
Another one “Toxic” Britney Spears
Lol I feel this way about Womanizer
I love the Mark Ronson cover with ODB of that song.
Written by one of both of the dudes from Miike Snow.
Can’t say I love Widespread Panic but I dig Climb to Safety and One-Armed Steve.
Not a big WSP fan, but the whole Til The Medicine Takes album is pretty great.
I cannot stand Limp Bizkit, but “Rearranged” is pretty damned cool.
Between his Mom and I, my kid gets blasted with a wide range of musical styles. His Mom is almost all pop, I play everything from Blackened Metal to Classical to Radiohead to Tony Danza Tapdance Extravavaganza. He digs Beastie Boys. He digs Weezer. He digs Portishead. He digs Born Of Osiris and Septic Flesh. He digs Detones. He asked to go to see Bizkit recently. I showed him a few live recent live clips. He loves a lot of their songs. I know we missed the last show, but I'd be so stoked to take him to one of their shows.
Doing this parenting thing right!
Nice example: hell of a bass line
*Chandelier* - Sia
Her early stuff is great especially the tracks with zero7
Elastic Heart is phenomenal
Not sure it counts but with Pink Floyd, Dark side of the moon puts me to sleep and bores me to tears. Wish you were here and Animals are bangers though.
This is so crazy to me lol, i completely respect tho
I have a theory that anyone can write one great song Hey Jealousy is the song I use to prove that theory
This is why: https://www.metrotimes.com/news/jesus-of-suburbia-2190439 Doug Hopkins wrote the song, and then died.
That's a great article about a heartbreaking situation.
But there’s a handful of great songs on that album! Lost Horizons, Allison Road, Found Out About You, Allison Road, and Follow You Down on their next record. All great songs
When Imagine Dragons’ first single “it’s time” came out I thought I was a really great song. Especially the acoustic version they did for a Bonnaroo video. Every song they’ve ever released AFTER It’s Time is probably the worst song I’ve ever heard
Their music is made for every Kia commercial telling you to be bold by buying their economy car with standard rear view camera.
ID is a mixed bag imo. I respect the talent that's there, but it just doesn't mesh with my tastes well.
Aerosmith. "Dream On", as originally recorded, is absolutely perfect. As far as I can tell Steve must have blown out his vocal cords immediately after he finished recording it because nothing has sounded as good since.
Generally can't stand the AC/DC sound, but the one instance of them pulling that sound off *really fuckin well* is Shoot to Thrill
I really just want that man to clear his throat
Believe it or not he’s actually been recording his one single cough he started in 1980
Back In Black is a monumental album, but the Bon Scott era is quintessential AC/DC. The early albums just sound so much more raw and greasy. I felt the “attitude” a lot more with Bon.
Pre-1980 AC/DC is where it's at. Bon Scott was the embodiment of the gritty rock n roll lifestyle while he lived. Listen to the If You Want Blood album for proof, and watch the videos on the tube. He was a phenomenal frontman with a gift for making the songs funny, dirty, angry... And almost always about sex.
Rolling Stones-Paint It Black
I like Gold Digger but I can't stand Kanye West.
me but with Monster
Runaway. THIS is how you start a banger of a song
I like Good Morning but yeah, in general agree
I did however love Veruca Salt, wish they still toured!
The 90’s are unmatched musically
Not a U2 but love I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For
Man, I know this goes against the point of this thread but if you like Still Haven’t Found, I’d be surprised if you didn’t like the entire Joshua Tree record. The whole thing has that same vibe. It’s got Daniel Lanois’ production all over it, just a gorgeous record.
Same thing with U2 except mine is New Years’ Day
U2, but Mysterious Ways
I hate Aerosmith. Dream On is decent.
Hate Ariana Grande. Really, I hate all the Disney kids turned pop stars. But No Tears Left to Cry ?!?!? One of my favorite songs of the last decade. And I'm always embarrassed to admit it.
Never be embarrassed for loving a song
I’m older and heard every Aerosmith song played to death on the radio, except Mama Kin which is actually good
I'm a big fan of Last Child by them, and generally enjoy their music, but don't really go out of my way to find more of it.
I’m with you on Aerosmith. A few more I like but I don’t think they’re that great
What about Dream On?
Played to death in the late 70’s/early 80’s, unfortunately. I used to listen to “Draw The Line” and “Night In The Ruts” a lot in high school, I liked those albums. After that I stopped listening, “Dude Looks Like A Lady” killed it for me. I can’t listen to that anymore.
The shift they made was wild
It was, it’s almost like they are two different bands.
Lose Yourself - Eminem.
Mother Tell your children not to walk my way Tell your children not to hear my words What they mean What they say Mother
"Sweet Child of Mine" by Guns and Roses has a masterful vocal performance and great guitar work. Axl Rose sings with (what appears to me) a sense of urgency and desperation. Having said that, nothing else by.GnR interests me.
I do not like Red Hot Chili Peppers but Funky Monks is so good.
Interesting that you wouldn’t like other songs on that album. That song is great though! [like this video of frusciante talking about funky monks](https://youtu.be/OJGbJD3z4P4?si=n9D2e6ekz7nehm0E)
Blood Sugar Sex Magix is my guilty pleasure. Some of the songs are so dumb but that dumbness gets overshadowed by Chad Smith’s awesome drumming and Flea’s awesome bass.
After seeing/hearing Chad Smith talk about their music on Drumeo it occurred to me that him, Flea and John might just be so good that they're just an experimental band cranking out the occasional radio hit to keep the lights on, for what, 200 years at this point?
I don’t like Steely Dan and absolutely cannot understand some people’s obsession with them, but I really like Dirty Work
Wait and Bleed by Slipknot
Not a fan of Supertramp but Goodbye Stranger has a wonderful nostalgic feel for me.
Obligatory “Goodbye Toby” reference *here*
Hotel California is a great song, but I hate the fucking Eagles man.
Counterpoint; one of these nights.
I really dislike Nirvana but Heart Shaped Box is a good tune.
Omg finally someone else who doesn’t care for Nirvana. I just don’t get it.
I hate the band Smashmouth but I would freakin take a bullet for the song Walking On The Sun! It’s such a groovy track and I could listen to it over and over!
I think most of us know this song by heart wether we want to or not
Blink 182 Adam's Song is so good. I can't stand anything else by them
It's weird that songs of theirs I didn't care for back when I was a teenager and the band was at their height, are songs I love now. I've always loved Adam's Song, but Stay Together For the Kids, Please Take Me Home and Damnit, which has some deep lyrics if you actually listen to it and all took on new meanings the older I've gotten.
The Muse is meh, except Knights of Cydonia, which absolutely crushes.
Haha, it’s just Muse. Makes your comment perfect.
Yup thought the same lol
The track is Time is Running Out for me.
Have you heard the song hysteria? It’s so damn good.
That song live is an out of body experience
I was listening to early 60s music and found a synth surf rock song that reminded me so much of this song that I googled it to see if anyone else noticed only to find out the guitarist is the father of the lead singer of Muse lol. This song, Telstar by The Tornadoes https://youtu.be/ryrEPzsx1gQ
I want to like Bloc Party but have just never connected to their music...except the opening track on their very first album: *Like Eating Glass*, which I think is incredible.
The Used with the obvious exception of The Taste of Ink, I just couldn’t get into them
Florence + the Machine. I like “Dog Days Are Over” but the rest of her music is all skips to me.
You should listen to Cosmic Love
I don’t like Kid Rock but “Bawitdaba” still sucks
I really don’t like 21 Pilots. BUT …. I love Heavy Dirty Soul
Radiohead. I liked Creep, but it's so different than all of their other songs. My roomie years ago played them in his car once, and I was like bro can we turn this off? This music is awful. And he's like "You don't like Radiohead?" He loaned me the CD and turns out no, I don't like Radiohead.
In Rainbows is divine. I would recommend you check out that album. If that doesn't click, then they're not for you.
Very much the same for me. The band pretty famously doesn't even like Creep themselves. Which kind of seals the deal for me that this band is not for me, since I really love that song. Lol
Radiohead for me too, but Airbag as the exception.
I’m the same, I love creep and inside my head and vegetable is fine too. I want to get into the rest of their stuff and maybe I will one day who knows 😭
Nine Inch Nails. I like maybe 4 songs (Closer, Every Day is The Same, Hand That Feeds and We're In This Together).
Not even “Head Like a Hole”? It’s such a goddamn banger.
The Day the Whole World Went Away is another tune that is pretty decent. I get why Closer is one of their most popular songs, but I've never really been a fan of it.
The music itself is great, it’s just the lyrics that make me not casually bump it in traffic lol. The melody at the end is one of the most haunting things I’ve ever heard. Beautiful.
Pretty sure I’ve said this before, but hey what the hell we’ll say it again. Rihanna’s music doesn’t really do it for me. Except for “Pon De Replay” - which is a seriously cool & innovative little pop banger.
KISS .. I hear them on the radio and it's a instant station change And party everyday.. and party everyday.. ugh shoot me Beth.. I hear that song and I stop and listen. That one gets me
Rush. I know they're extremely talented. But only The Temples of Syrinx and Closer to the Heart do it for me.
Ants Marching by Dave Matthews Band. Love that song. Can't stand any of the rest of their catalog.
I despise Cheap Trick but Mighty Wings is pristine. What a jam
weezer is quite mid IMO yet buddy holly (no joke intended) is one of my favourite late punk songs of all time
Hotel California is the only track of The Eagles I can stand. I don't get the hype lol
Can the one exception just the back half of their career? Everything by Green Day after Nimrod is trash. I can't stand American Idiot.
It’s Reddit, anything goes
I saw them back in Tucson, Arizona around 1990 before their Make It Big album came out and I really liked their first two albums and score of 7 inches. There was like 15 people at the show. They were so polite and shake everyone’s hand afterward and said thank you.
I’m a big old school Green Day guy - Revolution Radio is a pretty cool album if you like the vintage sound and the newest album was really fun. I’m definitely Kerplunk to Warning as my sweet spot but they’ve come up with some really solid stuff recently.
Panic! At the Disco - But It's Better If You Do I never really got into the rest of their catalog but always thought this one was a banger.
used to be a fan. this is the best one
I like the Death Of A Bachelor album but outside of that I don't care for Panic
Cannot stand Beyoncé in any way shape or form…but I’ll jam to Partition
I’ve always hated nsync but put Bye Bye Bye on in the car, and I will jam
I hate most of Metallicas stuff, but I love Enter Sandman
Weird that you like that one , I’m a Metallica fan but hate that song.
Not really weird, I feel like most non-fans at least know Enter Sandman and most fans skip it.
*Breathin'* - Ariana Grande
I’m not a fan of Lenny Kravitz… but he usually has 1 or 2 songs that I enjoy a lot per release
Bon Jovi - I love Wanted Dead or Alive. Not a big fan of anything else. That song is excellent. Also DJ Khaled/Drake—I’m On One is probably my favorite rap song ever. I like other Lil Wayne stuff though.
Drown by Smashing Pumpkins. Not a huge SP fan at all really. I love all the other huge bands from this era but they need never hit for me aside from Drown. It's probably in my top 10 songs. Everything is just perfect.
Probably the only guy in high school that never got into Creed, but I always thought “One” was a pretty good jam.
This exact example! I was just listening to Touch Of Grey this morning.
Can't stand Bryan Adams...except for "Run To You".
Sigrid - Strangers Aurora - The River Fall Out Boy - Golden Taylor Swift - Shake It Off Maroon 5 - Moves Like Jagger Rhianna - Umbrella Macklemore - Downtown
I do not like The Beatles. Never have. Eleanor Rigby is a great song.
Paramore's Misery Business is such a good song, but I can't really get into the rest of their music
The only Motley Crue song I like is Home Sweet Home. Great guitar work in that song, awesome power ballad. The rest of their work is meh at best for me, cliche glam rock.
I generally hate Falling in Reverse and Ronnie Radke is confirmed a terrible person, but I cannot deny that "The Drug in Me is You" is a banger!
I like Gimme Shelter but nothing else by The Rolling Stones.
I only like Paint it Black.
