On That Note: (Don't) Touch That Dial

[pourcyne]

Every freaking song on the Barry Mannilow, II album (1974), but especially...

 

[MeanDean]

This is probably a very hot take. I have never liked this song. Not this version, not the Run DMC version. Great musicianship, I'll grant you. But I just hate it. The melody? Or the words? The vocals? When it comes on if I'm in a public place where I have no control, I just want it to be gone, or over.

Flame away!

Everything John Denver, he was such a puke. (Barf Me With A Spoon)

 

[pourcyne]

Or any artist who sings this.

It just seems to drag on to me.

But NOT Tommy James and the Shondells, you blasphemer!!

That may not be good but country roads is great.

[Fishhead]

I hate this song too. I could have wrote the lyrics

 

[Cupped]

Rod Stewart, Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?

Love Rod Stewart; hated this though...

Fingernails on a Chalkboard Hate...

 

[pourcyne]

Most everything Neil Sedaka.

 

[Gonzo]

Anything Katy Perry. Horrible, contrived singer. Worse human.

 

[pourcyne]

Always hated, still hate, will hate forever...The Beach Boys.

MeanDean’s primed the “Pump” (so to speak) with Aerosmith, here’s my choice.

Several others from the band’s catalog I could choose, but most don’t force urge for immediate channel-changing.

This is “where’s the knob?” line.

 

[BCClone]

Like kiss but not this one.

 

[pourcyne]

Horiffic.

 

[Gonzo]

Just, no.
