Songs you like from bands you hate

Postby Wedgie » Fri Jan 18, 2008 10:12 pm

Might have had this topic before but I'm constantly upset with myself when a band I hate puts out a song I really enjoy, Im sure others have this issue.
Powderfingers Lost and Running and Matchbox 20s How Fare We've Come are probably my two most recent.

I hope that one day concerts will have discounted tickets for people who only want to go in and listen to one song! :lol:

Yours?

Sunday Bloody Sunday by U2. Love the song, not the band in the slightest. Im sure there are more, that one just leaps out

I cant stand U@, and in particular the pompous self-righteous lead singer - but I really like several of their songs: With Or Without You, All I Want Is You, Beautiful Day.

Nor could I ever stand Joe Cocker - but You Can Leave Your Hat On is a song that brings me a perverse pleasure.

"Some Kind of Bliss' - Kylie Minogue.
Only a good song 'cos James Dean Bradfield helped her out.

This is the reason I try not to get too hooked on loving or hating artists on principle. Play each ball (I mean song) on its merits :wink:

You never know when your fav band will turn in a dog or one you hate finds some gold!

I used to hate Midnight Oil but as the 80s wore on I had to admit I liked some of their later stuff

I couldn't stand the Spice Girls :lol: but they did a slow number on the Diana Tribute CD which I thought was great.

Detest all of Guy Sebastion's stuff except for the film clip for "Elevator Love" due to the presence of the goddess that is Jennifer Hawkins, always watched the clip with the sound off.

The only Matchbox Twenty song I can stand is their first "Push". All down hill from then on.
