Every Band Has at least One Redeemable Song

    My friend was dating this girl who pretty much irritated all of us, but she was fairly nice, so we put up with her. One day we were talking about the Beatles, and she said "Ugh, I hate the Beatles, They suck." There were many reactions---gasps, looks of horror, I believe someone almost spit their drink out, lol. It probably sounds shallow that this was the straw that broke the camel's back in his decision to break up with her, but come on, how weird is it that someone, especially someone in their 40's, hates the Beatles?

    I have to agree with this. After my music history class last year it gave me an even greater appreciation for the impact that the Beatles had on music.

    I had a friend recently who had a beatles music history class. my first thought was WEIRD.. college credit for listening to the beatles...

    as for Jimmy Buffet- we;ll have to agree to disagree.. for me I'd rather be pool-side with a local reggae band playing than in a concert venue listening to rum-soaked musings with drunken suburbanites
  • i LOVE Shinedown!! "Better Version", "45", their remake of "Simple Man", all wonderful songs!

    the world disagrees but Jimmy Buffet makes my skin crawl with his faux-caribbean schtick.

    I agree!

    So, the challenge is, think about a band that maybe doesn't have any redeemable music who is popular or well-known. I can't think of any really, other then what I said above.

    Nickleback. I rest my case.

    Lets be honest, Hanson has no redeemable songs. They were and still are a terrible band. Ugh, just saying it makes me cringe.

    Mmm bop is the best song that ever existed, you blasphemer!

    I think sometimes people jump on the bandwagon of "that band is not good" and then automatically hate every song they come out with just because they think they should. I know far too many closet Nickelback lovers. Come on, it's ok to like the uncool bands! (I love me some Foghat.)

    Agreed.




    Wait! Foghat isn't cool?

  • i like "Fix You" by coldplay

    and "Burn it to the ground" by nickelback :) - It's awesome to run to.

    *ducks for cover*

    *clears throat* Ahem! Ms Mirey, remember that Henry Rollins act about the woman who listened to Nickelcrap??? ;);)

    I hate the Biebs, but he has a song he did with Usher. I think it's called Somebody To Love and every time I hear it I wanna dance. I feel like a douche afterwards.

    Simple Man is good by virtue of the fact that it's someone else's awesome song. Original is still better.
  • One Direction. The only direction I can think of is away from that shizz.

    Amen to that!

    Ahem. Mr beast... Remember telling me you'd never throw me from the car EVEN if I liked Nickleback ? ;)

    Coldplay is beautiful. Yes, I am one of "those" people and I don't care haha

    Nickelback, though, really? Come on. Or like, Creed? Or Rebecca Black?

    Are you suggesting Creed is on the same level as Rebecca Black?

    You know I will test that theory... I may start singing "something in your mouth" the next time we're going for a drive... And then we'll see if you throw me out...

    well exactly, it's impossible to even have a conversation about it unless we set some definitions around 'good', vs just 'i like it', and that is really hard & annoying to do.

    I have not one good thing to say about any David Bowie song. I hate him.

    Sacrilege! Bowie is a genius!

    That is all.

    Can't stand Muse - histrionic rubbish. Crash Test Dummies made my skin crawl.

    That's why they're a band you've heard of - back in the day, they wrote one song that woke people up in bars and parties and got people excited to go see them over and over, and the rest is history.

    I seem to like Lil' Wayne songs better when other people do them, such as this cover of Lollipop by Framing Hanley -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbUR0SRceD0

    Does a cover song really count?!? my vote is no... its not like she made an original spin on it or anything

    And let me say this again, in case it got lost - Is there anyone that will disagree that REBECCA BLACK meets the ask of OP?
