Same here. And they were my #1 band for a while, but... eh. The last album I bought and still have complete was Achtung Baby. Since then, I've liked a couple songs here and there which I just bought as single downloads, but nothing very recent.

I once heard Henry Rollins asking what had happened to them, talking about one of their more recent albums... I think he referred to it as "music for people who have lost the will to live."

That said there are probably people who love it, but to me it's all "meh."

Just one word: Beiber

The horror.

Seriously as frau kaleun said even a fave song can get overexposed.

I remember a high school band trip to California sometime in the early 80s. Long bus ride. Silly things teeage boys and girls do. A boombox with loads of cassettes-not only "current" songs but some 70s classics. Two in particular I got heartly sick of, the aforementioned Hotel California and BTOs Taking Car of Business. Even our music teacher, Mr. Kowalenko a pretty hip dude (for a teacher-hell he had a fro and a mustache, kind of like a chunky Epstein from Welcom Back Kotter) got a bit fed up IIRC.

Anything by Morrisey/The Smiths

Break My Stride by Billy Wilder (My head is still in recovery from the last time it exploded)

Pretty much anything that passed for 80's Aquanet hair band heavy metal.

Just remember, Bieber is Canada's retribution on the US. You didn't think you could drop a nuke like Miley Cyrus on the world without a harsh response did ya?

I grew up hearing 'California here I come'.

or something a little more modern.

Funny, there are songs that I used to love that make me cringe now, and songs that used to make me cringe but I now love.

I stand corrected Steve. My apologies!

Songs you never want to hear again

" Peach's'" , ,by some retarded group called The presidents of the united states of America, or some BS name like that.

My god how i hated that song. I remember i was patching a roof leak and i damn near kicked the work radio off the roof every time that song was played, and it was played ALOT over the local radio.

I'd find a youtube link, but the fact of the matter is, I don't want to hear it again.

Highbury · 07-19-11, 10:24 AM

Ducimus, that one was stored in my grey matter and totally forgotten. Now that you have brought it back to the beige matter up front... you are correct. That may be the most awful song ever. Certainly the worst English language "pop" song IMO.

Usually I am ok to just ignore things I don't like, live and let live so to speak. However, the person who wrote that song does deserve alot of methodically inflicted pain.
