Music that everyone else loves but you just don't


Like the thread title says, there's some music that everyone else seems to love but I don't.
I don't have their albums, I switch stations if I hear it, my eyes glaze over when yet another thread starts up about how great the remaster of the remastered tapes begins...get a grip I wanna yell it's elevator muzak! :p

Who's on your list then?

Here's some of mine:

Eagles (Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh...run's a country mile to get away)
DSOTM
ACDC
Dianna Krall
The Boss (but if he's in a backing band then that's OK(think Warren Zevon) )
Madonna
All Boy Bands
All Girl Bands
ABBA
The Stones...basically everything
Nickleback
Fleetwood Mac (everything since P.Green left)
Adele
The twenty thousand clones of Aretha Franklin
Johnny Winter
Grateful Dead
Lots and lots of Neil Young
U2
Steely Dan all albums except CDTE
The Doors
Led Zep after Houses of the Holy

There's more but that's a start.

I think growing up listening to Grand Funk Railroad ruined me for heavy metal music....nothing compares I'm afraid to Mark, Don and Mel.

......

Yep, I know there's a lot of elevator muzak a lot of Mall muzak in there but ...hey that's where this stuff tends to end up or on baby boomer FM stations.

Now don't get angry, don't get cranky if your favourite music appears in someone's list...just chill and write your own. This is just a thread for people who mightn't like what everybody else likes. Some harmless fun if you like.

You could of course put an alternative to your disliked band/singer/musician in brackets. Even though I didn't, feel free to do so yourself.

Cheers :D

Blues as dance pop

Not a bad definition of rock n roll. Maybe not a perfect definition, but not a bad one.

I'm now officially without opinions on Kiss, but my failure to like them in middle school was a serious social handicap.

Another weird ZZ Top fact: Billy Gibbons guest starring on the TV show "Bones" as Angela's wayward father. I suspect him of lipsynching there, too!

Well I'm not up on a lot of those initials. There's some one hit wonders that clearly haven't come to terms with their limitations. Lots of bands I only like one or two tunes by. C+W is horrible but I like a few classic Hank Williams tunes. Johnny Cash did a couple of good ones. Don't get the dislike for Fleetwood mac, Neil Young and the Eagles. Grunge rock and rap are pure you know what. I guess disco has it's utilitarian purpose. What I dislike the most is pretty well anything new and original since probably the early 90s. Lets face it, we've been there, done that. The only original harmonies that remain are the ones scribbled down 30 years ago and tossed into the trash accompanied by an expletive on it's way in. I remember the talk about the "end of days" regarding music way back then already. It is after all a finite mathematical calculation. But there's no despair. If one were to attempt to listen to every tune ever written just once, a life time would not suffice. And they've been plagiarizing each others' since the beginning. So why not just keep mixing and matching?
