I have managed to avoid Boy Bands. Couldn't tell you anything by the Jonas Brothers, the Backsteet Boys, and others whose names I've gratefully forgotten. There does seem to be an abundance of Backstreet Boys in the CD bins in trift stores. They are to CDs what Barbara Streisand is to vinyl.

Radio in general makes me want to off myself, except CBC radio 2 :D

Most radio, I would agree. But since I picked up my 8080DB, and it can actually tune in FM stations properly, I've been listening to the local classical music station. I've never been especially into classical music, but hearing it with such clarity has opened up a whole new area of interest for me.
 
Just about anything by the Rolling Stones-the only thing that I ever liked from them was the a side of "Tattoo You". The b-side sucked.....25 minutes of my life I will never get back.

"Black Dog" from Led Zeppelin
"Sweet Home Alabama" by Lynyrd Skynyrd
"Money" by Pink Floyd
"That's The Way I Like It (Uh-Uh)" by KC & The Sunshine Band
ANYTHING BY KC & THE SUNSHINE BAND
ALL CRUNK RAP MUSIC (early hip-hop like Grandmaster Flash & Tone-Loc are cool. They had a reason to make the music-and it was music we could understand!)


NOSEFLUTE CONCERTOS FROM THE 70's!!!!

There are more, but I have the power to not let them play.....(insert evil cackle!!)

Here is someone that is great to listen to:

Madeleine Peyroux - Careless Love.

I just bought the MFSL half-speed master, and it sounds outstanding! She has the 30's sound, and it is so easy to melt into a chair and drift away when you listen to her music!
 
Anything by:

Johnny Cougar
Bob Seeger (especially "Turn the Page")
Eagles
Lou Christie
Tommy Roe
The Four Seasons

and last but not least

Joannie Summers - "Johnny Get Angry"
and
The Tokens - "The Lion Sleeps Tonight"

I used to hate "Sugar Shack" but now I just think it's funny.
 
Well, lessee.....

I know that if anyone were to bring "My Beautiful Balloon/Up Up and Away"
to the apartment in any media form, they would be physically evicted off our 9th floor balcony.....the sappy singing and the excruciating chord changes just gives me a Charles Manson moment when it comes on the car radio.

What was that abomination by the Carpenters? "Muskrat Love"? "Gerbil Love"?
(you know the one.) On my never-play list with a bullet. For me, in case it gets played.

Anything by Sade. The woman is beautiful, but she earns an unbeatable double award from me: she is BORING as hell as a singer, and to add to the misery, her "sophisticated" songs have chords and changes in them that make me want to rip my skin off in public. If Frank S. were still alive, he'd give her a good talkin' to.

There is waaaay too much new pap for me to list, but suffice to say, I am glad (much like TenToze) that I am the only one who puts anything on my stereo.

I want to thank whoever posted "Seasons in the Sun", that was the first song I thought of when I saw this thread, and I had no idea who "sang" it. I have to agree about Bungle in the Jungle- I hated it when it was new & still do, though I am a Tull fan. The classic rock stations have a way of overplaying so much drivel- it is hard to know where to begin! BTO- I can sing better than that & I most assuredly can't sing! Styx, Journey, Bad Co., the list goes on & on. Thank goodness I don't have a tuner in my main system.
