Tunes You Hate From Bands Ya Dig

Any of the 'Unforgiven' tracks from Metallica. The first one was tollerable at the time, but the other 2 were just ponderous and a waste of time. I'd skip all 3 now though.

I hear ya!!!!

Speaking of Metallica, I've always hated that song Fuel.

Plant's solo albums have some moments here and there, but I've yet to hear an entire album that I've enjoyed all the way through...unlike Zeppelin for example.

That Tall Cool One song SUCKS, though!!!!

I don't hate the song, but the opening lines always bothered me. "Gimme fuel, gimme fire, gimme that which I desire" Rhyming fire & desire is Bad Poetry 101 isn't it?

I never liked the studio version of "Fuel" but it's a kickass live track.

My thoughts exactly MG.

Just ran through it on youtube real fast to see if I missed anything. Meh, it's got some ok parts to it musically, but the vocals suck, and its pretty damn boring after the first minute and a half. This just isn't an era of Metallica I dig, some of the songs are pretty ok, but they're being done by the wrong band.

me so stupid & punk ass boyfriend -ZZ Top off of Mescalero, not big on this album in general.

Mescalero has some good moments although what is good is good and what isn't, isn't. There's no in between on that album. All 3 guys have killer tone and it's nice to see they added new things like an accordion (which they used perfectly) and singin' in ol' Espanol...but those two songs suck among others.

yeah for sure, but your right the title track, and Que Lastima and a few others are pretty good, the good ones need to be weeded out of the bad ones, like on a ZZ playlist.

I'll post my latter era ZZ Top playlist @ work tomorrow.

The Moody Blues-Ride My See-Saw & I'm Just A Singer (In A Rock & Roll Band).

yeah I never cared for "I'm just a singer...." either the other one I don't recall.

Kiss' cover of Then He Kissed Me. Ugh, maybe as a single, but it totally taints the record its on. At least it's the last track.

I don't mind it at all but I would've preferred an original over it.

Wishbone Ash-Warrior. The only track on Argus that I can't stand
Stump-Buffalo, which I think is intentionally bad, but still.
Traffic-Rock & Roll Stew. Once again, the only weak spot on a perfect album

It should just end with "Plaster Caster" it works well as a last track and keeps the album pretty solid. The cover I could really do without. I listened to it when I just spun Love Gun for the first time in about 8 years, and snapped down the volume almost to mute before it was halfway through. It doesn't sound terrible I suppose, but it's just a bad song.

It probably would have worked better if the lyrics where changed to "And then she blew me"

Really? That's the song that originally made me a fan of Wishbone Ash.

Yeah, Warrior is a great tune, prolly the one that got me into Wishbone Ash as well.

BTO-Takin' Care Of Business

That one was killed through use in advertising and sporting events. We Are The Champions suffered the same fate.

Totally agree, SD. I can remember a time when I liked both songs.

I love Twisted Sister to death but I've always hated "You're Not Alone (Suzette's Song)" on YOU CAN'T STOP ROCK N ROLL.
...yeah, it's a lovely ballad by Dee dedicated to his wife, and I hope it got him laid, but I can't stand that track!!

Even during my fanboy teenage "All Metallica All The Time" phase, I never really liked "Seek & Destroy" or "Escape" much.

Megadeth's "Moto Psycho" is fuckin' awful.

Much of the Ramones' PLEASANT DREAMS is pretty weak sauce, ditto for the bulk of Warrior Soul's CHILL PILL.
