I HATE U2, but like "One"

Go figure.

Muppet Baby, I’m confused. My guess is you’re referring to a deleted post? Or did I miss something?
There’s a number of bands that I think I "hate" that I was going to list, but then realized I couldn’t name just ONE song I liked. Journey, for example. I was going to say "Seperate Ways" but then I remembered "Don’t Stop Believing" and "Any Way You Want It". And I can’t concur on Mariah Carey, either, since certain songs of hers carry sentimental teenage "dancing around like an idiot" memories.

Oh sweet merciful crap here we go.
1."Ride"- The Vines (That singers face wants me to smack him with a mallet but the song’s beginning is hella catchy)
2."Freak on a leash"- Korn,sorry I never really liked them and I laughed when the one guy went born again and left the band.

Oh, I will admit I like most of the Spice Girl songs. Something about them Brit tarts that made me happy…

What amazes me about Good Charolette is how everyone and their mother hates them but they still sell albums. Fuckin teeny boppers that don’t know any better.

I dunno, I don’t listen to much music aside from Weird Al, and I adore all his songs.

Anyway matt, kinda off topic, but you go tta do an article on this new toyline "Fistful of Power." Its made by the same company that gave the world Mighty Beanz (Moose) and seems to be a homage to the old MUSCLE and Monster in my Pocket toylines. The website is http://www.fistful.com so, go and check it out. And, as i reccomended do at lest a blog item on it.

I would have used to have an answer with Céline Dion, as I’m generally not into her stuff, but I like the song "The Power of Love" (the "Because I am your lady, and you are my man" one, not the Back to the Future one from Huey Lewis and the News), however I eventually found out that the Céline version of that song was one of a million cover versions of the Jennifer Rush original, and I like the cover version peformed by the recently departed (much too soon) Laura Branigan much better.

Oh, wait, I actually liked the New Kids on the Block song "Tonight", from Step By Step, their last popular album in North America, back when I was a teenager, but now that I’m 30, I find I’m getting somewhat nostalgic for NKOTB in general, so now I find myself listening to songs I used to hate and finding them not too bad.

Oh oh…I hate the music on the EA games like Madden and MVP Baseball, but can’t help singing them after playing the game for awhile…

Though MVP has me hating all Irish and the entire New England area with their damn Red Sox ode on the game.

Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!

I can’t believe this thread is still going! I realized I had something to contribute yesterday while driving in my car. That damn "On the Way Down" by Ryan Cabrera. Anyone ever see that flippin’ idiot on that new Ashley Simpson show? OMG…dude is a complete tool.

Freakin "Since you been gone" by Kelly Clarkson just gets stuck in my head (and I’m ashamed to say I dont totally hate it.)

Did anyone mention the safety dance by men without hats? I hate when that song gets stuck in my head!

Safety Dance was mentioned in my last post. I cant really say that i hate that band, what else did they sing. that and the fact that i was 4 when they were popular. Happy St. Patrick’s Day. incase you didnt know or care, St patrick was from Wales, not Ireland. God Bless the Irish and their booze, though, they will even drink for an Englishman.

primusboy: Personally, I think the greatest Men Without Hats song of all is the tender yet very intense http://www.lyricsfreak.com/m/men-without-hats/91775.html">"O Sole Mio" from Pop Goes the World, wherein you get the full brunt of Ivan Doroscuk’s hurricanish voice, but the only Men Without Hats song that hit it truly big south of the border (meaning south of the Canadian border) was "Safety Dance". The Pop Goes the World album just happened to be released when New Wave was on the wane in the States. "O Sole Mio" should have been a much greater hit.

I preferred their song Pepper

Livin’ La Vida Loca–Hated Ricky Martin and all that Latino Pop that was popular at the time (’99, right?)…but this song is very catchy…and reminds me of, well, let’s say it takes me back to my college days. :)

I Want it That Way–NSync (or was it the Backstreet Boys?)–I was working in a grocery store at the time this song came out…it was played ALL the time, and eventually grew on me.

Sometimes I Run–Britney Spears–See "I Want it THat Way"…plus it’s just an upbeat song.

This Love–Maroon 5…I don’t know…the song is easy to sing along to…and I like easy to sing songs.
