Songs that don't take very long to write
By this, I mean songs that repeat the same line, over and over, for an excessively long time. Some I like at first but am soon wishing for them to end, others I have an intense dislike of.


Link to original video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZGYYDvZnpg "Weird Al" Yankovic parodied this one, calling it "This Song is Just Six Words Long." Big Grin


Link to original video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vBecM3CQVD8 This is OK for about three minutes, but the rest is nothing but "woo-woo."

Kiss is bad for this.

Link to original video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWP_lqd_8M0 "Na na na na na na na na na na na hey Jude" nineteen times. Roll Eyes Hard to believe that this, A, came from the same band that came up with "A Day in the Life," and B, this was their biggest hit.

Feel free to add your own, agree with me or tell me "You're full of crap, those are the greatest songs/bands ever." Razz

ANY song by K.C. and the Sunshine Band.

"That's the way, uh-huh, uh-huh I like it..."

"Do A Little Dance, Make A Little Love, Get Down Tonight..."



When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own house, his possessions are undisturbed. Luke 11:21

Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists." -- George W. Bush

Sympathy has some of the best lyrics in rock n roll.

Someone knocking at the door
Somebody ringing the bell
Someone's knocking at the door
Somebody's ringing the bell
Do me a favour
Open the door
And let 'em in



Wow... that's deep. Like poetry man. Big Grin

"I'm So Glad" by Cream. Just awful. I want to shotgun my radio whenever I hear it.

Wins award for most attractive album cover as well. I think that song on a loud speaker system would solve the noisy wind chime problem another member reported.

Anything by Beyonce. Don't understand how come she's so successful.
