Great Bands...... Lousy Songs

[zebra03]

We all have favorite bands , but every once in a while they create a song that makes you cringe . I'll start .

Jethro Tull - 4WD ( Low Ratio )

 

[Permanent Waves]

Rush - I Think I'm Going Bald.

About the only Rush song I skip.

 

[spideyjack]

bungalow bill

 

[spideyjack]

nothing is as bad as American Dream by CSN&Y

 

[AMT3lover]

Nothing by Jethro Tull is lousy (Not!)

The Beatles - Besame Mucho
Edit : hummm that's no good, they did not write it.

ELP - Tiger in a spolight

 

[anytune]

Starship - We Built This City
Grand Funk - Locomotion
Elton John - Philadelphia Freedom

I love Todd Rundgren. Can't stand "Chant" and "Shine".

 

[rebellovw]

pearl jam - daughter - I hate that song - so repetitious and drowning and I like PJ - love the album 10.

 

[John C.]

Chicago - just about anything post 1973.

 

[UltraVintage]

Black Sabbath - It's Alright

 

[UltraVintage]

Led Zeppelin - Hot Dog

 

[avguytx]

Anything by Nirvana? Wait....they were neither.

 

[clydeselsor]

Genesis - everything after "Trick Of The Tail"...

 

[Blast]

Black Sabbath - It's Alright

Agreed. What a lousy album, as a whole. To BS's benefit, I think a lot has to do with just general poor sound quality.

Led Zeppelin - Hot Dog

Agreed. But, I blame THAT on the band, itself.

Jethro Tull - 4WD ( Low Ratio )

Yeah. They had a lot of "biters" starting with the 'A' album.

 

[jonman]

The Beatles, cant think of the title, but think it might be "I Know your name Look up the Number

 

[Hackster!]

Clapton- "Wonderful Tonight.":tears:

 

[Treshold]

Witchy Woman by the Eagles.:yuck:

 

[Jack Lord]

I will get flamed, but so be it.

I just cannot stand "Magic Bus" by the Who. Used to see Kids are Alright at the midnight movie and that is when I would make a restroom run. Live at Leeds version is even more of a nightmare. Most people love it. I don't know why, but I cringe.

The Beatles' "What Goes On" is one of the few pick up the needle/grab the CDP remote moments of their repertoire.

"West of the Fields" is a dull song on an otherwise stellar Murmer by REM.

Rush - I Think I'm Going Bald.

About the only Rush song I skip.

It may be more pertinent if you actually happen to be going bald.
Though I will agree not there best effort, but honestly I can thing of worst.

Gorky Park - Peace In Out Time. Even Alexey Belov phenomenal guitar work can't save this travesty, though unsurprisingly it was written and arranged by Bon Jovi yuck. Hell even the band hated the song, the only time they played it was when the recorded it for the album.
