Songs Everyone Seems To Like But You Hate

[rowanwitch]

there are songs it seems you are supposed to think are special etc after five different versions landed in my various mailboxes I was so p'd off I thought it can't just be me...
Apologies to the composer

A man was singing in the street
I thought his voice was pretty sweet
Until he started singing Hallelujah
Now this bloody song’s been done to death
It seems a total was of breath
And still the sound of it just goes right through ya,
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hall ay lu u u u jah
Now Leonard Cohen wrote the thing
It suits the way that Cohen sings
But every would be singer puts it to ya
On every talent show on TV
Someone thinks its good to be
The one who did another
Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hall ay lu u u u jah

Christmas songs like Slade get on my proverbials.

[jakep]

Really like Hallelujah
Don’t like Per upa pumpum (Christmas) or Love Shack (pop)

[rowanwitch]

At least its just at Christmas... not every pigging busker

[emmie]

true, but i do like Christmas carols, at least a you say only once a year.

[rowanwitch]

Another for me is stop the cavalry, bleuch!!!

[TheDevil]

[emmie]

come on Eileen drives me nuts.

[10ClarionSt]

I do Stop The Cavalry on karaoke! People ask always ask me to do it cos I know the words - and they like it. True!

[Mozz71]

I love John Cale's version of Hallelujah, but that's as far as it goes.

Stop the Cavalry is a great song, and one I don't hear much at Christmas.

Wonderwall. I can't stand Oasis.

[pixie374]

I hate Wonder wall too. The worst ever song has to be Get Lucky, Daft Punk. It so embarrassingly desperate, I can't understand how they could bring themselves to sing it, let alone release it. It really makes me cringe.

[ummmm]

Fields of Athenry.

[rockyracoon]

Brown Eyed Girl - Van Morrison

[hereIam]

Anything by Queen !

[Unsureme]

Hey Jude,Don't look back in Anger to name two.

[tiggerblue10]

I wanna dance with somebody, Whitney Houston and Last Christmas, Wham to name but a few songs that drive me nuts!

[woofgang]

Tears in Heaven. I always think Stop the Cavalry is a really odd choice for a Christmas song. Its about the trenches in WW1
