Bad Songs by Good Artists

Well, let's turn the concept on its head and have a "Bad Songs by Good Artists" thread, shall we?

Run for Your Life, The Beatles (off the Rubber Soul album) Accidents Will Happen, Elvis Costello Bike, Pink Floyd (not so much "bad" as "weird") Shellshock, New Order :p

Everything by Yanni..... He is an absolutely brilliant artist, pity his songs suck

Oh! And RTS by NO:p

I'll get bashed for mentioning this band, but Dressing Up by The Cure has to be their worst song EVER if not the worst song by anyone.

You'll have to try again, those are all good songs! ;)

Liar - New Order The 13th - The C*** The Meaning of Love - D****** M*** Sliding - Ian McCulloch All Around - The Chameleons Work Is A Four Letter Word - The Smiths Sugardaddy - Billy Bragg Hey Jude - The Beatles and nothing at all by The Fall, cos they're all great in their way.

Jeff, speaking of presents, when can I get a copy of HATYM from you?

uhm...well...I guess I won't be sending you any presents...not that I really had anything worth sending in the first place...

no christmas cards either...not that I normally manage to send any of those out either...

I got it...I won't be listening to your vocals any longer!!!

that will teach you to slag RTS!!!:D

I take it back... Rock The Suck is a good song

No one likes a crawler. Say it like you mean it - Rock The Shack is a bit pants.

IMO, the Dandy Warhols are a very good band singles-wise. But the rest of their songs are...erm...bad .

This was The Crawler with another one of her eloquent comments

Accidents Will Happen as one of EC's worst? I'd put just about everything post-Blood & Chocolate, can't remember exactly what my last current purchase of his was, all I know it's been a long time.

Bombers Bay by Echo and the Bunnymen, or most of the eponymous grey album.

Apeman by the Kinks

1-2 Crush On You by the Clash

Maybe These Boys by the Church

Is It Love? by Gang Of Four

Here Comes The Weekend by the Jam

Don't forget Shitsville UK by the Clash!

Maria Gallante - O.M.D. Makes me wanna barf every damn time!!

Candy Everybody Wants - 10,000 Maniacs

Eleanor Rigby - The Beatles No excuse...

Just about ALL '95 Remixes - NO Sorry, but had to go there...

I just never took to "Accidents", it just seems like a less-than-stellar effort to my ears than "Oliver's Army" and "Party Girl" off Armed Forces. To each his/her own, I guess...

anyway, on with the list (sorry Jeff )

Hang Five - Rolling Stones New Age - Velvet Underground (brings "Loaded" to a screeching halt) The Laughing Gnome - David Bowie

Originally posted by Drunken Monkey oh great...here goes another thread bashing Rock the Shack...

You know, now that I think about it folks, I kinda like RTS...it's nice to hear NO not take themselves too seriously for a change...especially after REPUBLIC...which is getting into another thread all together

Oh yeah...

Pastichio Medley - Smashing Pumpkins. No Excuse for that!!

Originally posted by I've got a clock like the M1 oh...I'll do this one, just for my good friend ShugzV...World In Motion...he can't stand the song, even if it is by his second favorite band...the reason he ain't gonna be posting here very much is bacause he finally found an Erasure site!!!

Oh yeah, that song does get on my nerves at times.

There actually is an Erasure site?? Shouldn't you be there?;)

I'm listening to 'Yo-Yo' by Basement Jaxx at the moment...I have determined through careful listening and dilligent research that it in fact, qualifies for this list as it sucks ass.

OK...The Smiths on now...that's better.

No need to go see Erasure...just a funny high pitched fellow prancing about in a tutu and some feathery scarf...entertaining though!

Originally posted by I've got a clock like the M1 that's why you should be listening to Ferry Corsten doing Rock Your Body Rock...that one does not suck...and it's been stuck in my head for a while now...

I've settled on The Ventures - Surf Rock Anthologies (Japan) for the moment.

...I told you, I've been drinkiin'

I know it's to our own taste, that's what makes it so much fun

Yer killing me now with New Age, ya really really are. it's Lonesome Cowboy Bill that I reckon drags Loaded down. I rate New Age as simply divine, though not the best thing on that album, which'd be either Sweet Jane or Lou's hilarious bit at talking to himself, I Found A Reason.
