I went through a tough divorce when that song came out. It played at every club, I went to with my two buddies, who were also getting divorced. To this day, I can't listen to that song without hearing the chorus that we the made up. My roommate and my best friend, got me through a very heartbreaking time in my life. We shared long talks, a few tears, some really big laughs, good times, drinks, played music together and even traded dates a few times. Whoa! I'm half way there Whoa! I don't fucking care! Take my wife, I hate her, I swear Woah! I don't fucking care! RIP, Brian. You were like a brother to me. Cheers to the good times, bro.
This is like going to 5 consecutive weddings on a Saturday I would rather be watching a baseball game. By the time they got to the last song "One Less Lonely Person In The World" I was hoping it was a murder-suicide song. Nope, just another icky love song. Air Supply Greatest Hits album review. I memorized that back in the 1980's. Minneapolis Tribune.
I used to work for a company that put on weddings. It was the rare DJ that did not play "Don't Stop Believing". It happened so consistently, that we'd place bets on when the DJ would
I am a huge lifelong Journey fan. But, there are so many incredibly great tunes by them. Even pre- Steve Perry era. Go deep and play something like, LOOK INTO THE FUTURE. It is awesome!!
I know right, why is that the popular pink floyd song, I like it but there are about 30 other pink floyd songs I think is wayyyyyy better than another bick in the wall.
Pete you are brilliant! I was laughing myself silly with this rant. That phrase you consistently use: "enough already." Priceless. All those indignant phrases you use, fabulous. And finally, to hear the word "turds" was a real blast from the past. Keep up the rants and all the rest of your fantastic videos. Congratulations from a frequent British watcher!
WJ: I'm 55. When I was in high school and in my 20's the rock stations were "AOR"; Album Oriented Radio'. You heard album tracks, B sides, live recordings. It was a golden time for rock. Now the stations are assigned frequencies based on the # of songs in their play lists; 97.3 FM has 97 songs that they play over and OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER. 💥🔥(Me blowing up the radio.)
Agreed, I've always had this dream of starting a classic rock radio station that played nothing but forgotten gems and deep cuts. So many great songs that have been buried while we hear the same worn out boring songs over and over every day.
There's a reason I always listen to classic rock but just change to a different station when certain songs come on. It's not like classic rock songs are the only ones overplayed. Listen to any "Top 40" stations recently? lol
Classic Rock radio can be good if they are doing "vinyl sides," because then you get to hear stuff that isn't played to death or even played at all on the radio.
@@trainguy7276 They had a radio station here in Los Angeles that was doing that. 100.3 The Sound. They are no more, but I loved when they would do vinyl sides. You got to hear such good stuff and stuff that you never knew even existed.
Smoke on the water Paranoid You really got me Sailing Everything I do I do it for you My Generation Almost Ny Oasis song Another brick in the wall Now here are 2 done to death that I still love Dont fear the reaper and Carry on my wayward son .
The three songs I can do without ever hearing again: 1.Bohenian Rhapsody 2.Sweet Emotion 3.Sweet Home Alabama No need to mention the artists, you all know (or should know) who they are.
I like it only because all the hard corps MERICA! patriots rock it out when they play it at football games etc, but it is a very unpatriotic song. It makes them look stupid so I like it. It does sound like crap, but i'm a metal head and very biased
@Master nothing, I'm a Marine vet. It's just funny watching them feel the patriotism in that song when it isn't there . It's just funny. Probably shouldn't have worded it different, but they are the ones getting burned. If that makes sense
I just watched this sitting in a supermarket car park waiting for the wife . When I finished watching I put the radio on and Jump by Van Halen came on . How apt 😂😂😂
I know it's a great song, but if I hear "Imagine" by John Lennon, sung by John or any other fool who also recorded this overplayed weepy I will puke. And that also goes for "What a Wonderful World." UGH!!
Do yourself a favor and have a laugh m8, i suggest you look up 'red roses too' it's a spliced version of 'what a wonderful world' that revolves around the red roses line.
Couldn't agree more, I never understood what's so great about "Imagine". The melody is a very average Lennon song at best, and the lyrics are infantile, it's kindergarden stuff as far as I'm concerned. If you compare it to other Lennon solo stuff for example a truly great lyric such as "Isolation" which I love, "Imagine" is really a subpar song in every respect.
@SS88doubleturn Obviously, but whatever was on Lennons mind to me it still is an average song at best, both as far as the melody and the lyrics, that some might see as idealistic dreaming, but I consider to be just infantile fluff. I already mentioned Isolation, and I think I could easily come upp with a whole set of Lennon songs that are far superior to Imagine.
Oh, I forgot UB-40. How many times did we listen to "Red Red Wine", considering that it was actually a cover? Bear in mind that some UB-40 overplayed songs are actually covers.
Don't mind a bit of UB40, I'm sick of Red Red Wine but some of their original reggae stuff ain't too bad. Their version of Can't help falling in love is dope. Sure overplayed but I still enjoy it
Pour Some Sugar On Me is one of the better songs from Hysteria, but it is so overplayed and their first three albums and their EP from 1979 are much better
Re: 'Come On Eileen'. Picture me placing a five pound chunk of C-4 (plastic explosives) on top of the radio and leaving the room. Leaving the room in a hurry...
"We built this city" plays at my work, it's such a bland monotone track, all i can think of while i hear that song at work is 'yeah, you built the city on rock n roll, but that's not very structurally sound'.
"I'll Be There for You" from Bon Jovi. Some of the worst lyrics ever written ("When you breathe I want to be the air for you." "When you get drunk I'll be the wine." ).
I’m curious. Some of those songs you never need to hear again are attached to great albums. So if you want to hear “Hotel California” the album would you skip “Hotel California” the song? Wouldn’t feel right to me. Then again I still love that song. Perhaps because I don’t listen to radio much and tune music out when I’m at a social gathering I therefore don’t get sick of too many songs though sometimes overexposure to a song means it loses its magic for me.
Chris Pineo good point. I agree. There are songs I might not listen to on their own but will if I’m listening to the whole album. Iron man, war pigs and paranoid comes to mind. I might listen to them when then come on but i listen to the whole album then yes
Moneytalk - Ac/Dc Don't stop Believin - Journey Born In the Usa - Bruce Springsteen Crazy - Aerosmith Mony Mony - Billy Idol Bad Medicine - Bon Jovi More Than a Feeling - Boston Let's Dance - David Bowie Layla - Eric Clapton (original version...MTV Unplugged stills good to me) Learn To Fly - Foo Fighters Invisible Touch - Genesis Sad But True - Metallica Daughter - Pearl Jam Learning To Fly - Pink Floyd We Will Rock You - Queen Baba O Riley - The Who Jump - Van Halen Legs - ZZ Top
Sirius/ XM plays a great variety even on their 2 channels labeled 'Classic', but for greater variety they have their 'Deep Tracks ' channel. I lost my stomach for terrestrial radio after I started with XM. Even if they had a more imaginative playlist, the witless blathering of the DJ's insults my intelligence.
I lost my stomach for terrestrial rock radio after they stopped promoting new music and just became about nostalgia- somewhere around the mid 90s. I don’t have satellite radio either, but I rely on some fantastic music podcasts for my music fixes. I love Progzilla Radio and Music in Widescreen podcasts but there are loads of other excellent ones. As far as I am concerned, radio is dead.
Somebody destroyed "Stairway to Heaven" for me during my military service. He played it like twenty times every day for like three months.....and I hate him for it.
New subbie here! I discovered your channel with the recommended autobiographies list video and stayed for the rest! This video was so enjoyable. The one song I’m done with is “Don’t you forget about me,” by Simple Minds. Great lyrics, great message, beautiful production and nice vocal tone, but OVERPLAYED! I can’t enjoy it like I once did :/ Thanks for the videos you put out! ✌️
Those are good ones, except now the latter two are going through my head back and forth, which isn't good. "Sweet Caroline" might actually get it for a song I'd be tempted to even pay a decent sum foe the privilege of never having to hear it ever again.
From a UK perspective. Stairway to heaven, Bohemian rhapsody, Imagine. (The 1 2 3 of ANY poll of the bestest songs EVER ). Sweet child o...no please stop. Free bird. Freak off! Sweet home Alabama, Californication, Hotel..you know the one. Come on Eileen.....bah will end it there as there are so many. That's part of why I gave up on radio years ago. Thank god for smart phones and unlimited data plans.
Not forgetting; Layla All right now Paranoid Smoke on the water Jump American pie And many many more........ Put them all on a Ronco/K-tel best of album, then burn it🔥
Eagles "Hotel California" has to be up there. I once went to Amsterdam and stayed at a place called Hotel California. They played it morning, noon and night, back to back to the point that it just became white noise. The only good thing about that weekend was that when I checked out, I actually left.
i got XM cause I couldn't take it anymore. you still get a lot of the normal but they go way deeper in the track selection and variety of bands than the radio
I would like to be a Terminator to go back in time so that i could eliminate everyone involved that made the Kars for Kids jingle. It's a matter of national security.
I wholeheartedly endorse this sentiment. (It's even worse when you hear the organization was hit with a lawsuit b/c the "charity" wasn't benefitting children in general but was a scam to rake in cash for jewish-only groups)
...... Or "Sultans of Swing," by Dire Straits, "Black Dog," by Led Zeppelin, or, "Somebody To Love," by Queen. Now.... I'm a huge fan of Queen and love that song, but even Freddie Mercury, if he was still alive, would ask these classic rock stations, "you _do_ know I wrote other stuff, right?"
@@平和4 "Sultans of Swing" is one song that I could listen to multiple times every day. It has qualities the other songs you mentioned don't seem to have. The characterization and storytelling, sheer beauty of the music, Knopfler's taste and technique, the unsentimental nostalgia it conjures for a place and time, as a well as a tincture of je ne sais quoi. I love the song and feel as if I grow a bit as a person every time I hear it. What pisses me off about the song is that I only hear it at work these days and it always gets cut off by an in-house ad for glazed donuts or toilet paper.
Massive fan, that I am of Floyd, I have to agree. The saving grace is the solo. Another Floyd song I can do without is Comfortably numb. If I hear someone else, doing their version of this song, well I might not be responsible for my actions.
Then you have two classic rock stations in town with similar play lists...Now the oldies station is starting to play songs the other two play...It's madness I tell you.
"Let's Dance" by the mighty David Bowie, for god's sake play "Scary Monsters" " I'm Afraid of Americans" "Moonage Daydream" or ANYTHING. The Actor had MANY MANY much better songs.
@@waterglas21 "Let's Dance" is fantastic as a pop record for Bowie. I love it for that. "Scary Monsters" might be my fave. Or "Low".. So many great records. "Ziggy Stardust" in top 3. Such great work.
I've listened to every Bowie album, and please tell me I'm not alone in saying that "Let's Dance" is not even a great album in general. Let's Dance is my least favorite David Bowie hit, both song and album.
Rock and Roll All Nite gives me a gag reflex anymore... I'll add Takin' Care of Business by BTO, Foreigners I Want To KNow What Love Is, and Im at a crossroads with Don't Stop Believin' by Journey. Mercy Rule already!!!!
Scott Gabbert . . . Here in Australia it's I Was Made for Lovin' You. Rock and Roll ALL Nite wasn't played to any great capacity until after 1996. But man I Was Made for Lovin You, Sure Know Something and in 1980 . . . Shandi was played to death from June to November 1980.
"Hallelujah" by Leonard Cohen. Big Leonard Cohen fan here but I could live a quite happy life not hearing this (especially all the cover versions) again.
Another One Bites The Dust bit the dust the first time I heard it in 1980. Considering the body of work up to that point, the whole album "The Game" was a disappointment. I believe it's also their shortest album. Only 35 minutes.
LOL - Another One ... you would have to work hard to get sick of it? I know it got played at the skating rink a lot in 1980 but I don't know that I've heard it since . . .
@@xDannyRBNx I don't know about that Danny. But I certainly haven't since 1976-7. Having said that though, since that time, there have been the songs that I've heard on the radio and liked and then gone on to buy or acquire. The same goes though, for TV and friend's houses or cars. I've long welcomed having a measure of random in my life. Personally, I've never seen the fuss with Spotify. When all my friends, colleagues and my little brother were raving about it, I was just thinking "but I've been in control of my own musical listening destiny for most of my life !" Don't get me wrong, Spotify and its ilk serve an important function. But not for me.
Even FM radio? You sure missed a lot of good music. I stopped listening to the radio in the early 90s when the smaller stations were being bought up by corporations.
Overplayed songs I never get tired of hearing: "Somebody To Love," Jefferson Airplane "Margaritaville," Jimmy Buffett "Teach Your Children," Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young "Do It Again," Steely Dan "Refugee," Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers "NIght Moves," Bob Seger pretty much anything by Bad Company
Dude looks like a lady never ever again!....and everything you mentioned as well! Pete, with all of the mentions of weddings, I'm thinking you're a wedding crasher?
The Who is my favorite band and I completely agree with “Who Are You”, “Won’t Get Fooled Again” and “Baba O’ Riley” being overplayed. They all three hold a special place in my heart though because those are the songs that introduced me to the band. I feel like I could listen to the intro and the acoustic guitar solo in “Who Are You”, the synthesizer intro and violin outro on “Baba O’ Riley”, and the drum solo and the scream in “Won’t Get Fooled Again” and I’d be happy. But the songs in full, I could live without them.
Love the Who but I’ve never got on with Baba O’Reilly. Hate that piddling keyboard intro and Townshend’s Teenage Wasteland bit goes straight through me.
My heart will go on by Celine Dion, I will always love you by Whitney Houston, Total eclipse of the heart by Bonnie Tyler, Paradise by the dashboard light by Meatloaf
Tony C. . . . We in Australia are occasionally lucky. We missed out on some great bands like Van Halen pre 1983. Journey was a complete FAILURE outside the U.S. apart from the U.K. I loathed Journey and was stunned to hear how big they were in the U.S.. Styx too were total flops as were the bulk of the Eighties bands.
gage..omg yes..my husband worked for journey a few years he had to quit so he did not toss himself off a bridge to avoid hearing them pussy ass tunes one more time... t/y
Top 30 1) Journey - Don't Stop Believin 2) Boston - More Than A Feelin 3) Gary Glitter - Rock N Roll Pt.2 4) Van Halen - Why Can't This Be Love 5) Kiss - Rock n Roll All Nite 6) Doobie Brothers - China Grove 7) Sweet - Ballroom Blitz 8) Black Sabbath - War Pigs 9) Led Zeppelin - Rock n Roll 10) Lynyrd Skynyrd - Free Bird 11) 38 Special - Hold On Loosely 12) Heart - These Dreams 13) Billy Squier - Rock Me Tonight 14) Styx - Sail Away 15) Bob Seger - Old Time Rock N Roll 16) Judas Priest - Livin After Midnight 17) Pat Benetar - Hit Me WIth Your Best Shot 18) R.E.O SPEEDWAGON - Keep On Lovin You 19) Rush - Closer To The Heart 20) Queen - Crazy Little Thing Called Love 21) Supertramp - Logical Song 22) Eddie Money - Take Me Home Tonight 23) Ramones - Blitzkrieg Bop 24) Sex Pistols - Anarchy in the U.k 25) Prince - When Doves Cry 26) Metallica - Enter Sandman 27) Ram Jam - Black Betty 28) Foghat - Slowride 29) Alice Cooper - I'm Eighteen 30) Ratt - Round and Round Most of those are bands I like lol I can do a top 1000 or bands I hate.
"Smooth" by Santana. Love Carlos, great song. While working as a security guard in college I sat and listened to the radio for 12 hours a day. Loved it at first, then I couldn't escape it. There were four rock stations in town and they all managed to play it at the same time. No. where. to. run.
Stairway To Heaven, Smoke On The Water, Comfortably Numb, Bohemian Rhapsody, Hotel California, Imagine, Tom Sawyer & more such ... belong in the "once/year" category.
the Joker, Sweet Emotion, The Pina Colada Song, Sweet Home Alabama, Lyin Eyes, Take it Easy, Carry on my Wayward Son, Dont bring me down, Blinded by thr light.
@@rodsmolter5046 Nah Mr. Blue Sky is overplayed it’s one of the only two songs people known ELO for (Don’t Bring Me Down being the other). I could name like 5 or 6 songs from Out Of The Blue that’s better. I will admit Evil Woman is overrated too, but in the sense of a community and not being a radio song or at least I never heard it on the radio.
Satisfaction - Stones Anything from the Eagles, particularly "Hotel California" Life's Been Good - Joe Walsh Brown Eyed Girl- Van Morrison Dancing in the Dark - Springsteen Brandy - Looking Glass Renegade - Styx
Good one's. Agree with the Eagles. I used to like them but all of their biggest hits have been played to death and they don't have a whole lot of great deep cuts.
It did say songs Kiss have never done a song. why waste time writing songs when you could be better employed using make up to hide the fact you are really uninteresting ugly nerds. Remember their favourite song I was made for boring you. I hate the dead midget I would dig him up stick a pink Cadillac up his rectum and rebury him.
Final Countdown has a great guitar solo but I can't get through the whole thing because of that annoying repetitive synthesizer riff. Jack and Diane is a good pick - I hate that "little diddy". I still listen to Moving Pictures quite a bit but I always skip Tom Sawyer. Funny because that was the song that first got me hooked on Rush.
ANYTHING by Foreigner, or Kenny Loggins. If I hear 'Danger Zone' one more time I may lose my mind, grab my Model 39-2 and start blowing holes in the radio.
Paul: What makes 'Danger Zone' doubly appalling to me is, besides an insipid pop rocker trying to do hard rock, the song is from the 'Top Gun' soundtrack. I was assigned to a Navy fighter squadron a few years after that film came out and it was viewed as an absolute joke, especially by the pilots. We had a guy named 'Sontag' in the squadron. If that was you, then you are indeed my brother. (Strike Fighter Squadron 151, 1994-1997)
Tom: I grew up hearing the country stuff my dad liked - all the stuff from the 50', 60's and early 70's. I'm a rocker but I liked that stuff. Nowadays it's all crappy pop music with a country voice that sounds like one of those terrible fake accents in a bad movie. In terms of real country music... HANK, SR. IS GOD.
more than a feeling - boston since you been gone - rainbow living on a prayer - bon jovi boys are back in town - thin lizzy sweet child o mine - guns n roses
Nothing more frustrating than being a Rainbow fan and having to hear the worst song they ever recorded every day at work. As opposed to literally anything else! I sometimes wonder if anyone would complain if I swapped it out for Tarot Woman for the sake of my sanity
My top 5 never need to hear again ( or maybe once a year ) 1) Smoke On The Water - Deep Purple. Love Deep Purple and the song but...vastly over played. 2) Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen. Played to death 3) Here I go again - Whitesnake 4) Time After Time - Cyndi Lauper 5) Pretty Woman - Roy Orbison I love all these songs but have heard them way too many times. Good idea for a rant video Pete. Next...how about picking certain bands and doing a Deep Cuts video? There are lots of really good tunes on great albums that the casual fan hasn't heard.
All of these songs I can live with but Bohemian Rhapsody is where I put my foot down - No more! The uniqueness of the song has been destroyed by over-playing.
Man, you go hard on it. Once again, you got a lot of laughs from me. I really enjoy your authentic approaches. And it was perfectly clear that, once it became a hit, you will hate forever...
@Rock21 - Have you heard the fast heavy rocking version of "We will rock you" that opens Queen's "Live Killers" album ? It's almost a totally different track and blows the well known version to Pluto, Proxima B and Tatooine and back !
This is exactly why I love listening to Iron Maiden so much now. They virtually have no radio play. The thing with this list of songs, is they are all good songs, and good bands for the most part. And songs like this is what gave them much of their success. Unfortunately for us listeners, they became a daily repetative occurrance. I don't even bother with requests anymore because most of the time they either can't or won't play it because its not "commercially appealing" I could go to several different bars where live bands and DJ's play the same stuff every night. Kinda sad.
When it comes to Pink Floyd, I would rather sit through a playback of that entire miserable FINAL CUT album from beginning to end than listen to either "Money" or "Another Brick In The Wall Part 2."
That one I used to hear everytime I went to see a blues band. EVERYBODY and their mother, father, brother, sister, aunt, uncle, neice, nephew, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th cousins, and their mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, neices, nephews, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th cousins AND all their friends played that.
Glad u mentioned AC/ DC, GNR, Def Leppard, Lynard Skynard, the Who, Tom Petty, Queen, Aerosmith, Kiss, Rush, and thank heavens 4 bringing up the Let It Go from Frozen. But Is This Love? I guess it's not surprising since I'm not too old.
I don't want to hear...anything Sammy Hagar, Every Breath You Take, Don't Stop Believin', Open Arms, Bohemian Rhapsody, Nothing Else Matters, Enter Sandman, One, Take It Easy, Desperado, Life in the Fast Lane, Rock Star, Summer of '69, Born in the USA, Born to Run, Whip It, You Shook Me All Night Long, Love in an Elevator, Angel, Dude Looks Like a Lady, Rag Doll, Imagine (yes, I said it), Yesterday, (yes, I said that too), Kashmir, All of My Love, any Def Lep after Pyromania, Freebird, anything by Whitesnake, anything by Motley Crue, anything by Pink, anything by Beyonce, anything rap or hiphop.
I never need to hear "Livin' on a Prayer" ever again.
living on my hair
I don´t need to listen to anything from Bon Jovi, anymore.
Bon Jovi 🤢
And I never want to be "livin' on a prayer again."
I went through a tough divorce when that song came out. It played at every club, I went to with my two buddies, who were also getting divorced. To this day, I can't listen to that song without hearing the chorus that we the made up. My roommate and my best friend, got me through a very heartbreaking time in my life. We shared long talks, a few tears, some really big laughs, good times, drinks, played music together and even traded dates a few times.
Whoa! I'm half way there
Whoa! I don't fucking care!
Take my wife, I hate her, I swear
Woah! I don't fucking care!
RIP, Brian.
You were like a brother to me.
Cheers to the good times, bro.
What I've learned today: Pete goes to WAY TOO MANY weddings!
Everyone needs a hobby.
LOL that's exactly what I got out of it too
Something tells me he isn't going to any wedding soon...🤔
This is like going to 5 consecutive weddings on a Saturday I would rather be watching a baseball game.

Ha ha that is funny "Do you really want to hurt me? Do you really want to make my cry?"
Don’t stop believin by Journey, all my friends know that the second that comes on I’m leaving
I used to work for a company that put on weddings. It was the rare DJ that did not play "Don't Stop Believing". It happened so consistently, that we'd place bets on when the DJ would
play it. I never need to hear it again, and I like Journey.
I am a huge lifelong Journey fan. But, there are so many incredibly great tunes by them. Even pre- Steve Perry era. Go deep and play something like,
LOOK INTO THE FUTURE.
It is awesome!!
The first song I thought of after reading the title of the video.
I love Journey but there are some many other great Journey songs that I’d rather hear.
"Another Brick in the Wall"..... not even close to being the best song off "The Wall"
Money drives me insane when I hear in on the radio and I am a mega Floyd fan.
Albee213 gotta love the solo though!
And Money ugh
I know right, why is that the popular pink floyd song, I like it but there are about 30 other pink floyd songs I think is wayyyyyy better than another bick in the wall.
Hari Wyn Griffith brain damage is my favourite
"Living On A Prayer" - Bon Jovi. I've just heard it too much.
How about "Bed of Roses"?
@@IvanHernandez-wm4jj much better, and isn't as overplayed, probably due to its almost seven minute length.
once was too much
I've just heard it too much after the first time.
"You give love a bad Name" also. Both songs suck and are way overplayed. Wanted Dead or Alive is way overplayed too but at least that's a good song.
Pete you are brilliant! I was laughing myself silly with this rant. That phrase you consistently use: "enough already." Priceless. All those indignant phrases you use, fabulous.

I've never understood classic rock radio, hundreds of great obscure songs out there and they play the same 200 for the last 30 years.
Great and right comment

@@mariot1374 Yeah and that song is pretty much a C-mmie marchin' anthem.
The three songs I can do without ever hearing again:
1.Bohenian Rhapsody
2.Sweet Emotion
3.Sweet Home Alabama
No need to mention the artists, you all know (or should know) who they are.
Reginald Smith ive hated bohemian rhapsody for about 30 years. Wouldny mind deleting the rest of their catalogue too.
Reginald Smith and please Freebird never again!!!!
Definitely Bohemian Rhapsody !! Fucking hated Queen & I can't even remember them being that popular until after Mercury died. 🏴🤨🎸
Free Bird
Gotta go with you on Bohemian Rhapsody. Cannot stand the damn thing .
Born to Be Wild by Steppenwolf. You’d think that was the only song they ever recorded. Play something else by them FFS!
Magic Carpet Ride has been equally overplayed in my neck of the woods !
It's one song I never tire of its pure pumping rock with probably the first reference to heavy metal in the lyrics.
Both songs are much better when you listen to them on "Steppenwolf" and "Steppenwolf The Second."
They have recorded
songs like " Power Play"
and "From Here To There Eventually"
You don't hear them as
much.
Bruce Springsteen - Born in the USA I never liked it at all tbh
Soooo overated
me either
I like it only because all the hard corps MERICA! patriots rock it out when they play it at football games etc, but it is a very unpatriotic song. It makes them look stupid so I like it. It does sound like crap, but i'm a metal head and very biased
I feel the same about most his stuff. Used to be a fan, doesn’t age well imo
@Master nothing, I'm a Marine vet. It's just funny watching them feel the patriotism in that song when it isn't there . It's just funny. Probably shouldn't have worded it different, but they are the ones getting burned. If that makes sense
"YMCA - for fuck's sake people"!! hahahaha....I nearly wet myself there. :)
Village People - gay disco music for women who have reached 40 years of life in misery.
More Than a Feeling plays on every station all day everyday
It’s a good song and it does get played a lot on classic rock stations. I still like it though and will still listen
I don't mind it. Long Time is Boston's best song
That one still really works for me.
I will forever love this song no matter how overplayed it gets
@@michaelmfwayne I love the acoustic guitar in that song! Peace of mind is still my favorite boston song tho
I just watched this sitting in a supermarket car park waiting for the wife . When I finished watching I put the radio on and Jump by Van Halen came on . How apt 😂😂😂
The Final Countdown by Europe. It's almost offensive to me by now as a Europe fan.
The irony of the super happy sounding keyboard melody always cracked me up
That whining vocal
I understand.
Europe had about 5 top 40 USA hits
I barely hear this song, but then again I don’t get to listen to the radio much as I don’t do much driving daily.
Anything bon Jovi.
Jim Bob + ya they suck
Livin' On A Prayer, You Give Love A Bad Name, Wanted Dead Or Alive or It's My Life, mostly those songs.
I was already saying this in 1987
YES!!!!
Best Comment Award...
I so agree about 'We Are The Champions.' Crowds still sing it like it's somehow original.
“Welcome to the Jungle”. Can we please stop already?
Sweet Child o' Mine is more overplayed imo. Welcome to the Jungle is fucking amazing to me.
I'll take wttj over Paradise City any day.
@@TheCOZ Me too but I still like both songs.
@@TheCOZ yes I totally agree
Jungle DEFINITELY over Paradise City. Every day every way. No question
I know it's a great song, but if I hear "Imagine" by John Lennon, sung by John or any other fool who also recorded this overplayed weepy I will puke. And that also goes for "What a Wonderful World." UGH!!
Do yourself a favor and have a laugh m8, i suggest you look up 'red roses too' it's a spliced version of 'what a wonderful world' that revolves around the red roses line.
Yes I'm ok without hearing Imagine again...or yesterday
Couldn't agree more, I never understood what's so great about "Imagine". The melody is a very average Lennon song at best, and the lyrics are infantile, it's kindergarden stuff as far as I'm concerned. If you compare it to other Lennon solo stuff for example a truly great lyric such as "Isolation" which I love, "Imagine" is really a subpar song in every respect.
AGREE!
@SS88doubleturn Obviously, but whatever was on Lennons mind to me it still is an average song at best, both as far as the melody and the lyrics, that some might see as idealistic dreaming, but I consider to be just infantile fluff. I already mentioned Isolation, and I think I could easily come upp with a whole set of Lennon songs that are far superior to Imagine.
Oh, I forgot UB-40. How many times did we listen to "Red Red Wine", considering that it was actually a cover? Bear in mind that some UB-40 overplayed songs are actually covers.
Aren't all of UB40's American hits covers?
Yeah that was an annoying overplayed song from the start. I actually don't mind hearing it now though because it has some nostalgia to it.
Red Red Wine really is a nightmare. Horrible song.
Don't mind a bit of UB40, I'm sick of Red Red Wine but some of their original reggae stuff ain't too bad. Their version of Can't help falling in love is dope. Sure overplayed but I still enjoy it
Yeah, You basically described every classic rock Station .
If I never had to hear ANY classic rock ever again I’d be just fine
I hate “Pour some sugar on me”!! I love Def Leppard’s first three albums.
I never liked that song
Pour Some Sugar On Me is one of the better songs from Hysteria, but it is so overplayed and their first three albums and their EP from 1979 are much better
It’s a terrible song. If I want a good Def Leppard song, I listen to “Satellite”
Russ DAngelo Now that’s a good song
I do think Pour some sugar on me is a decent song. I think the most over played Def Leppard song is 'Bringing on the heartbreak'
i think Enter Sandman is SUPER overplayed. it’s just ugh to me. like i love metallica but god so overplayed
Nothing Else Matters, Sad but True, basically that whole overrated Black album.
@@rodsmolter5046 it gets played so much that i can’t even enjoy it anymore
I wanna know what love is by Foreigner or any of those over produced 80's love ballads (see REO speed wagon, Journey etc..)
Ha yes. Drive, by The Cars also springs to mind, especially.
'C'mon Eileen' and 'We Built This City On Rock'n'Roll' - both musical crimes against humanity.
I despise *"Come On Eileen.* Ever since it came out in '83 I've hated that stupid song...
Re: 'Come On Eileen'. Picture me placing a five pound chunk of C-4 (plastic explosives) on top of the radio and leaving the room. Leaving the room in a hurry...
@@Deborahtunes "cum on Eileen"
"We built this city" plays at my work, it's such a bland monotone track, all i can think of while i hear that song at work is 'yeah, you built the city on rock n roll, but that's not very structurally sound'.
They did...alot
"I'll Be There for You" from Bon Jovi. Some of the worst lyrics ever written ("When you breathe I want to be the air for you." "When you get drunk I'll be the wine." ).
I agree with many of your dislikes but have to add these two - I Love Rock & Roll by Joan Jett and Born in the U.S.A. by Bruce Springsteen.
Joan Jett was overrated to begin with.
Bruce Springsteen didn't even write Born in the USA.
He stole it. Ask Steven Van Zandt.
Very good choices.
I HATE REPEATERS!!!
"Dancing In The Dark" is not far behind.
Funny you didn’t mention “smoke on the water”. Not even close to DP’s best song. Way over played.
Paul. I like SOTW. Maybe it's overplayed, but it's their most popular song!!
Indeed. "Smoke on the water" and "Paranoiid". Two great bands, two overplayed songs.
@@samisilander9305 I haven't heard them be overplayed
I’m curious. Some of those songs you never need to hear again are attached to great albums. So if you want to hear “Hotel California” the album would you skip “Hotel California” the song? Wouldn’t feel right to me.
Then again I still love that song. Perhaps because I don’t listen to radio much and tune music out when I’m at a social gathering I therefore don’t get sick of too many songs though sometimes overexposure to a song means it loses its magic for me.
Chris Pineo good point. I agree. There are songs I might not listen to on their own but will if I’m listening to the whole album. Iron man, war pigs and paranoid comes to mind. I might listen to them when then come on but i listen to the whole album then yes

Pretty much any song played on ‘Classic Rock Radio’?
Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Eagles and Queen in particular
Sirius/ XM plays a great variety even on their 2 channels labeled 'Classic', but for greater variety they have their 'Deep Tracks ' channel. I lost my stomach for terrestrial radio after I started with XM. Even if they had a more imaginative playlist, the witless blathering of the DJ's insults my intelligence.
Lol
I lost my stomach for terrestrial rock radio after they stopped promoting new music and just became about nostalgia- somewhere around the mid 90s. I don’t have satellite radio either, but I rely on some fantastic music podcasts for my music fixes. I love Progzilla Radio and Music in Widescreen podcasts but there are loads of other excellent ones. As far as I am concerned, radio is dead.
i know... Carry On Wayward Son/Dust In The Wind by Kansas. you think those were the only 2 songs they recorded.
I live in Germany. They dont play rockmusik on the radio here .... ever. The good thing is that these songs are still great for me
Somebody destroyed "Stairway to Heaven" for me during my military service. He played it like twenty times every day for like three months.....and I hate him for it.
Check out the Heart version at the Kennedy honors it's incredible. Also the Frank Zappa live version is a great version!
@@ScottyKirk1 I agree very much.
You deserve respect for suffering through that. Thank you for your service!
I understand your pov but it’s still my favorite song of all time and has been since I first heard it back in the 70’s.
The Joker, Steve Miller Band.
Also love the Seconds Out shirt.
BryanX 64 Take the money & run too.
All of Steve Miller
@@santos764 I have become very nostalgic about Steve Miller's songs since I started dating someone with the same name.
YES!!!
The Joker is a really bad song, hated it from the first time I heard it.
New subbie here! I discovered your channel with the recommended autobiographies list video and stayed for the rest!
This video was so enjoyable. The one song I’m done with is “Don’t you forget about me,” by Simple Minds.
Great lyrics, great message, beautiful production and nice vocal tone, but OVERPLAYED! I can’t enjoy it like I once did :/
Thanks for the videos you put out! ✌️
Margaritaville by Jimmy Buffet
Sweet Caroline by Neil Diamond
Brown Eyed Girl by Van Morrisson
THANK YOU! Argh, I hate each of those so much.
It's unfortunate in Morrison's case because he's such a magnificent musician but he's remembered for that of all things
Those are good ones, except now the latter two are going through my head back and forth, which isn't good. "Sweet Caroline" might actually get it for a song I'd be tempted to even pay a decent sum foe the privilege of never having to hear it ever again.
#3 was on my list too
good call!
From a UK perspective.
Stairway to heaven, Bohemian rhapsody, Imagine. (The 1 2 3 of ANY poll of the bestest songs EVER ).
Sweet child o...no please stop. Free bird. Freak off!
Sweet home Alabama, Californication, Hotel..you know the one. Come on Eileen.....bah will end it there as there are so many.

@@padresteve619 cant hit the change button fast enough
"I Love Rock N Roll"
Paul Zenco omg yes! I can't stand that song😂
Paul Zenco yes!! And I can’t take anymore “I hate myself for loving you” and “hit me with your best shot”!! Please make it stop!!lol
My sister played that song to death in the early 80s .
ARGHHH! I NEVER need to hear that one again.
Eagles "Hotel California" has to be up there.
I once went to Amsterdam and stayed at a place called Hotel California.
They played it morning, noon and night, back to back to the point that it just became white noise.
The only good thing about that weekend was that when I checked out, I actually left.
Nearly every song played on FM rock stations, especially the "classic" stations.
I concur.
Yep. You'd think that every major rock band only had one or two hit songs.
Exactly and the fuckin idiots at those stations wonder why they are struggling. Too damn scared
i got XM cause I couldn't take it anymore. you still get a lot of the normal but they go way deeper in the track selection and variety of bands than the radio
Even XM is not as good as it once was. I personally refer to their "Deep Tracks" channel as "Shallow Ditch"...
Sweet Child O' Mine was the first song that came to mind before I even started watching this. Turn the station anytime I hear the opening notes.
I don´t need to listen to anything by Guns N´Roses, especially, Sweet Child O´Mine.
Ughh. That's a terrible song.
The guitar solo is incredible but other then that this song is just god awful.
@@ajp_3391 It's not terrible, It's HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! haha. The perfect song for casual rock fans.
I would like to be a Terminator to go back in time so that i could eliminate everyone involved that made the Kars for Kids jingle. It's a matter of national security.
I wholeheartedly endorse this sentiment. (It's even worse when you hear the organization was hit with a lawsuit b/c the "charity" wasn't benefitting children in general but was a scam to rake in cash for jewish-only groups)
@@concatinate exactly
That drives me crazy. Also, they spell Cars with a K for no good reason.
@pdfortune the real reason is the charity pays for some Jewish kids camp so it's k for kosher with a wink and a oy vey
Total Eclipse Of The Heart...ugh
Hotel California
Sweet Home Alabama
Stairway To Heaven
Smoke On The Water
Freebird
Eye of the Tiger.
I would keep Freebird.
2410 73691 That is a spot on list
We Will Rock You/We are the Champions
what song is it you wanna hear
Number 1 for me? Bad to the Bone. Never need to hear it again. You hear that intro in a movie you know a cringeworthy scene will follow.
The very first note of Another Brick in the Wall and I'm out of there.
...... Or "Sultans of Swing," by Dire Straits, "Black Dog," by Led Zeppelin, or, "Somebody To Love," by Queen. Now.... I'm a huge fan of Queen and love that song, but even Freddie Mercury, if he was still alive, would ask these classic rock stations, "you _do_ know I wrote other stuff, right?"
Amen sawdust
@@平和4 "Sultans of Swing" is one song that I could listen to multiple times every day. It has qualities the other songs you mentioned don't seem to have. The characterization and storytelling, sheer beauty of the music, Knopfler's taste and technique, the unsentimental nostalgia it conjures for a place and time, as a well as a tincture of je ne sais quoi. I love the song and feel as if I grow a bit as a person every time I hear it.
What pisses me off about the song is that I only hear it at work these days and it always gets cut off by an in-house ad for glazed donuts or toilet paper.
Massive fan, that I am of Floyd, I have to agree. The saving grace is the solo. Another Floyd song I can do without is Comfortably numb. If I hear someone else, doing their version of this song, well I might not be responsible for my actions.
@@TheRealJanKafkaYES!!!!
Anything by Journey and the Eagles is WAY OVERPLAYED on classic rock radio and I actually CHANGE the station when ANY of their songs come on.
well The last resort by the Eagles is great
Then you have two classic rock stations in town with similar play lists...Now the oldies station is starting to play songs the other two play...It's madness I tell you.
Journey was great till Perry turned it into a ballad machine
You should listen to Of A Lifetime. Awesome song
"Let's Dance" by the mighty David Bowie, for god's sake play "Scary Monsters" " I'm Afraid of Americans" "Moonage Daydream" or ANYTHING. The Actor had MANY MANY much better songs.
I'd like to hear "Young Americans."
Whattttttttttttt???? Just dance is amazingly groovy.
@@waterglas21 "Let's Dance" is fantastic as a pop record for Bowie. I love it for that. "Scary Monsters" might be my fave. Or "Low".. So many great records. "Ziggy Stardust" in top 3. Such great work.
P.s. - "I'm afraid of Americans". Such a great track. I love his "Earthling" era as well. And the touring with Trent Reznor!!
I've listened to every Bowie album, and please tell me I'm not alone in saying that "Let's Dance" is not even a great album in general. Let's Dance is my least favorite David Bowie hit, both song and album.
After watching this video, I never need to hear you say "ugh" again.
Nirvana: ”Another band I don’t have any use for” - lol. I’m ded

Don't stop believin' by Journey. I stop believin' on that song a long time ago.
Bad to the Bone was over played and covered. I love me some George Thorogood, but that song is worn out.
Hehe...it's definitely overplayed,but for some reason i could listen to that slide guitar all day!
Heard that every day on Navy boot camp. Never could listen to it again. Not a very good song to begin with.
Rock and Roll All Nite gives me a gag reflex anymore... I'll add Takin' Care of Business by BTO, Foreigners I Want To KNow What Love Is, and Im at a crossroads with Don't Stop Believin' by Journey. Mercy Rule already!!!!
Scott Gabbert . . . Here in Australia it's I Was Made for Lovin' You. Rock and Roll ALL Nite wasn't played to any great capacity until after 1996.
But man I Was Made for Lovin You, Sure Know Something and in 1980 . . . Shandi was played to death from June to November 1980.
@@FrostedSeagull I'd love to hear Shandi over Rock and roll all night. Sure know something? Yes please, at least they are actual songs.
You can't find too many radio stations that won't play oldies these days.
I miss album oriented
rock music.
You don't hear 👂
too many Hendrix
songs like "Stepping Stone" or " Three Little Bears"
Smoke on the water- Deep Purple
Should I stay or should I go- The Clash
Come out and play- The Offspring
"Hallelujah" by Leonard Cohen. Big Leonard Cohen fan here but I could live a quite happy life not hearing this (especially all the cover versions) again.
I'm quite sure the man himself thought the same.
The last verse gets me every time, but I agree the covers get abit to much
I never liked that song regardless of any singer/band.
I love Jeff Buckley’s version though
The cover rendition by Jeff Buckley from 1995 has pretty much eclipsed Leonard's original as the all-time definitive version of the song.
Love Queen. I don't need to hear another one bites the dust again.
Bohemian Rhapsody can fk off!!
Another One Bites The Dust bit the dust the first time I heard it in 1980. Considering the body of work up to that point, the whole album "The Game" was a disappointment. I believe it's also their shortest album. Only 35 minutes.
Dragon Attack is so much better.
@@PaulFalcon I forgot about Dragon Attack. I just listened to it. Not bad for 1980.
LOL - Another One ... you would have to work hard to get sick of it? I know it got played at the skating rink a lot in 1980 but I don't know that I've heard it since . . .
I think "Stairway To Heaven" tops the list for anyone over 60.

Old Time Rock n Roll - Bob Segar

Yes. Lol
I stopped listening to radio in 1976 so I don't have this problem. I wouldn't recognize a Blink, Green Day or Aguilera song if you played it.
I stopped in 2001, when I had a DSL line. I listened to Shoutcast streams. Today Spotify is the thing. Nobody needs the radio anymore.
@@xDannyRBNx I don't know about that Danny. But I certainly haven't since 1976-7. Having said that though, since that time, there have been the songs that I've heard on the radio and liked and then gone on to buy or acquire. The same goes though, for TV and friend's houses or cars. I've long welcomed having a measure of random in my life.
Personally, I've never seen the fuss with Spotify. When all my friends, colleagues and my little brother were raving about it, I was just thinking "but I've been in control of my own musical listening destiny for most of my life !" Don't get me wrong, Spotify and its ilk serve an important function. But not for me.
You would definitely recognize a Green Day song
Haa..im with you
Even FM radio? You sure missed a lot of good music. I stopped listening to the radio in the early 90s when the smaller stations were being bought up by corporations.
Overplayed songs I never get tired of hearing:
"Somebody To Love," Jefferson Airplane
"Margaritaville," Jimmy Buffett
"Teach Your Children," Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young
"Do It Again," Steely Dan
"Refugee," Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
"NIght Moves," Bob Seger
pretty much anything by Bad Company
Dude looks like a lady never ever again!....and everything you mentioned as well!
Pete, with all of the mentions of weddings, I'm thinking you're a wedding crasher?
The Who is my favorite band and I completely agree with “Who Are You”, “Won’t Get Fooled Again” and “Baba O’ Riley” being overplayed. They all three hold a special place in my heart though because those are the songs that introduced me to the band.
I feel like I could listen to the intro and the acoustic guitar solo in “Who Are You”, the synthesizer intro and violin outro on “Baba O’ Riley”, and the drum solo and the scream in “Won’t Get Fooled Again” and I’d be happy. But the songs in full, I could live without them.
Love the Who but I’ve never got on with Baba O’Reilly. Hate that piddling keyboard intro and Townshend’s Teenage Wasteland bit goes straight through me.
Hysterical. Pete could do standup comedy. I cackled all through the video.....🤘🤪
My heart will go on by Celine Dion, I will always love you by Whitney Houston, Total eclipse of the heart by Bonnie Tyler, Paradise by the dashboard light by Meatloaf
Anything by Meathead.
Sweet home Alabama. Can't stand it anymore.

But man, if i hear whole lotta love again...
Stairway To Heaven needs to be put in a time capsule not to be opened for a hundred years.

The freak out part is so sick tho
@Anthony Marks It’s an incredible song, but is also played way too much.
Don’t stop believin’...
Right. Any well-known track by Journey (or the Eagles).
That tune was ALWAYS dreck!
Sucked from the beginning.
Tony C. . . . We in Australia are occasionally lucky. We missed out on some great bands like Van Halen pre 1983. Journey was a complete FAILURE outside the U.S. apart from the U.K. I loathed Journey and was stunned to hear how big they were in the U.S..
Styx too were total flops as were the bulk of the Eighties bands.

Not sure about your number 3 lol!! nobody plays GG any more it would be a hanging offence lol!!!!
"Smooth" by Santana. Love Carlos, great song. While working as a security guard in college I sat and listened to the radio for 12 hours a day. Loved it at first, then I couldn't escape it. There were four rock stations in town and they all managed to play it at the same time. No. where. to. run.
Stairway To Heaven, Smoke On The Water, Comfortably Numb, Bohemian Rhapsody, Hotel California, Imagine, Tom Sawyer & more such ... belong in the "once/year" category.

Life's Been Good - Joe Walsh
Brown Eyed Girl- Van Morrison
Dancing in the Dark - Springsteen
Brandy - Looking Glass
Renegade - Styx

Anything by Kiss. Absolutely anything. Don't understand why you like them.
It did say songs Kiss have never done a song. why waste time writing songs when you could be better employed using make up to hide the fact you are really uninteresting ugly nerds. Remember their favourite song I was made for boring you. I hate the dead midget I would dig him up stick a pink Cadillac up his rectum and rebury him.
A real rock n Roll band cause they play 50s shite.

storeeteller1
Agree 1000%
You wanna hear torture? I used to work at the YMCA. And oh yes, they played that.....
Rush-Tom Sawyer, Europe-the Final Countdown, John Couger-jack & Diane.
I turn the station whenever these songs come on.
Final Countdown has a great guitar solo but I can't get through the whole thing because of that annoying repetitive synthesizer riff. Jack and Diane is a good pick - I hate that "little diddy". I still listen to Moving Pictures quite a bit but I always skip Tom Sawyer. Funny because that was the song that first got me hooked on Rush.
ANYTHING by Foreigner, or Kenny Loggins.
If I hear 'Danger Zone' one more time I may lose my mind, grab my Model 39-2 and start blowing holes in the radio.
Holy fuck! I hate Foreigner the worst ever and ‘Danger Zone’ makes my flesh crawl. You must be my brother!
Paul: What makes 'Danger Zone' doubly appalling to me is, besides an insipid pop rocker trying to do hard rock, the song is from the 'Top Gun' soundtrack.
I was assigned to a Navy fighter squadron a few years after that film came out and it was viewed as an absolute joke, especially by the pilots.
We had a guy named 'Sontag' in the squadron.
If that was you, then you are indeed my brother. (Strike Fighter Squadron 151, 1994-1997)

I don't hear the Roy version enough. THe VH version is not played out like some of their stuff is though.
All of these songs I can live with but Bohemian Rhapsody is where I put my foot down - No more! The uniqueness of the song has been destroyed by over-playing.
RIGHT, that's always been the case. The best songs are the ones that never made the charts.
Anything Pink Floyd
Man, you go hard on it. Once again, you got a lot of laughs from me.
I really enjoy your authentic approaches.
And it was perfectly clear that, once it became a hit, you will hate forever...
Here are some of mine:
.Don't Stop Believing
.Here I Go Again
.Pour Some Sugar on Me
.We Will Rock You
.Freefalling
@Rock21 - Have you heard the fast heavy rocking version of "We will rock you" that opens Queen's "Live Killers" album ? It's almost a totally different track and blows the well known version to Pluto, Proxima B and Tatooine and back !
Anything by Queen. *Smoke On The Water,* And *Stairway To Heaven.* Just don't want to hear them anymore...
Rock21 terrible, terrible songs
Hotel California
Andy Karn Yes yes YES THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!
I never even want to hear Henley sing ever again.
YOU SAID IT !
C'mon man, the Eagles? I've had a really bad day okay.
its overplayed, to be sure, but that outro solo, with the guitars harmonizing, makes is mandatory listening each & every millionth time it's played!!
I’ve probably watched 500+ SOT videos, but this might be my favorite. I laughed the whole time. Thank you, Mr. Pardo.
This is exactly why I love listening to Iron Maiden so much now. They virtually have no radio play. The thing with this list of songs, is they are all good songs, and good bands for the most part. And songs like this is what gave them much of their success. Unfortunately for us listeners, they became a daily repetative occurrance. I don't even bother with requests anymore because most of the time they either can't or won't play it because its not "commercially appealing" I could go to several different bars where live bands and DJ's play the same stuff every night. Kinda sad.
Other then run to the hill, way overplayed
Can I play with madness never gets old. They had lots of hits here.
I love Boston but I could go more than a month without hearing More “Than A Feeling” Jeeze!
Not me. Still is amazing to me
Long Time is overplayed, More than a feeling Rocks!
Honestly the album would a lot better without Long Time.
I really am sick of "money" by Pink Floyd. Every time I hear those cash registers ring, I dive for the off switch
I always thought it was the start of the British show “ Are you being served “😂😂😂
My favorite band, but I agree. Once a year would be fine.
When it comes to Pink Floyd, I would rather sit through a playback of that entire miserable FINAL CUT album from beginning to end than listen to either "Money" or "Another Brick In The Wall Part 2."
@@Daniel-415-Ponce Some very good songs on the Final Cut.
Another wedding ear killer “MUSTANG SALLY”
That one I used to hear everytime I went to see a blues band. EVERYBODY and their mother, father, brother, sister, aunt, uncle, neice, nephew, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th cousins, and their mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, neices, nephews, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th cousins AND all their friends played that.
@@fragotron LMAO!
@@ericramsell5947 EXACTLY! was on everyone's setlist!
When I first heard this song, I thought the guy was saying "MUSTANG SALAD!" and I was like...WTF kind of stupid song is this shit?!
some kind of wonderful
I always liked "Come as you are" better than "Smells like Teen Spirit>"
I would rather listen to anything else off Nevermind than SLTS. Lounge Act, Drain You, On A Plain, Breed etc are all better imo.
Glad u mentioned AC/ DC, GNR, Def Leppard, Lynard Skynard, the Who, Tom Petty, Queen, Aerosmith, Kiss, Rush, and thank heavens 4 bringing up the Let It Go from Frozen. But Is This Love? I guess it's not surprising since I'm not too old.
Smoke on the water. Living on a prayer.
I don't want to hear...anything Sammy Hagar, Every Breath You Take, Don't Stop Believin', Open Arms, Bohemian Rhapsody, Nothing Else Matters, Enter Sandman, One, Take It Easy, Desperado, Life in the Fast Lane, Rock Star, Summer of '69, Born in the USA, Born to Run, Whip It, You Shook Me All Night Long, Love in an Elevator, Angel, Dude Looks Like a Lady, Rag Doll, Imagine (yes, I said it), Yesterday, (yes, I said that too), Kashmir, All of My Love, any Def Lep after Pyromania, Freebird, anything by Whitesnake, anything by Motley Crue, anything by Pink, anything by Beyonce, anything rap or hiphop.
One million songs were made since the age of Rock n Roll, but they play only the songs in your above list on FM rock stations. Why is that?
Heavy Metal by Hagar is a great song.
If Stairway to Heaven isn't on this list it's a fail.
I was wiped out ....wiped out ......wiped out
stairway to heaven is my favorite song... it's legendary
That and Freebird!
Absolutely.
Or Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen.
Just about everything on syndicated radio stations.
WXHG. GREAT STATION OUT OF MINNESOTA. ON THE TUNEIN APP ALBUM ROCK. CHECK IT OUT
Oh yes, you are so correct!! Music radio has become a wast land.
Anything on commercial radio.
