Worst songs by good artists

Howdy all,

Few reasons for this. You choose 40 on C4 is doing it, it was interesting last time, and we have had a few heavy topics in the last week or so.

So, as the thread title alludes; what are some terrible songs or albums by artists you generally consider to be good.

C4 has come up with Genesis, I can't Dance, Kylie Minogue Locomotion, along with a whole lot of other crap.

For me, I think probably most oof Eric Clapton's Pilgrim Album. Deep lyrics spoiled (ruined is too strong) by too much arrangement. The solos weren't great on the album but subsequently, he has done some of the songs live which were great

As an alternate (cos I just thought of it) what are some great songs by artists you normally can't stand.

Have at it.

Anything after "OK Computer" by Radiohead

Charlie Parker's `Just Friends', the famous version. Some people say it's one of his best performances, but I've always seen it is just a sell-out to the public. Strings?!?! What the hell are they doing on a Bird album. Where is Max Roach?!

'Your love alone something blahblah......' Stereophonics' lastest offering, with the singer from the Cardigans.
Some people like it, and I guess it's a passable tune, but in my opinion it's definitely a regression from their usual stuff.

Ahh Singstar, the bane of my life.

We sing "Sweet Home Henderson Valley" I think Pakuranga sounds better.

What the fuck was Jimmy Page thinking when he thought up this shit? An LSD flash back from the 70's maybe?

Anything by the Rolling Stones where Keith Richards takes lead vocals.

Baaaaad!

**Trudes** · 12th April 2008, 22:07

Yeah, yeah, bit of a thread dredge, but better than starting yet another thread full of shit..... so anyway,
U Choose 40 on C4 (yep, get a life!) is tonight doing Pop Royalty, Madonna VS Michael Jackson. So what do you think, who wins???

My money's on Madge, I can happily listen to her music without wanting to kill myself, can watch her music vids without feeling violated, and hey, when was the last time MJ put out a new song??

Heh, looked at the thread title and thought someone had pinched idea. Then saw "Started by Mully"

I cannot stand Madonna. She drives me mental. I think she's a talentless hack who had her time 20 years ago and yet wont just fuck off and age gracefully.

Mind you, I wish Michael Jackson would fuck off too. I think he's been trying to recently though, and for that I congratulate him.

But then, what do I know?
