Songs You're Sick Of

[Dave (in MA)]

I still can't figure out how the Beatles managed to jam an hour of "na na na nah" into a 7 minute song.

[Lopez]

Any song that is played ad nauseam in commercials for drugs: currently "All Right Now" by Free and "Come and Get Your Love" by Redbone.

You aren't kidding. . The Ozempic commercial wore a groove in my brain. All these classic, hit songs from the 70s have been ruined.

[Jimmy Giant]

There's one far worse than Ozempic. I think its Jardiance. We literally scramble for the remote mute button as soon as it appears. God awful.

[IncogNeato]

F*ck all medication commercials. That is all.

I just recently read David Paton's new autobiography. He re-recorded the vocal for the Ozempic commercials and is making a mint off of it. Personally, I don't care if I ever hear that song again, but it is funding his retirement.

A few years ago I read or heard a David Coverdale interview where he said he was offered a nice chunk of change to permit a laxative company use "Here I Go Again".

He declined the offer. He said, imagine everytime I try to sing that song live. The crowd would be singing the chorus like it was Ozempic.

[Progbear]

The one song that I just can't stand is Brown-Eyed Girl.

I actually really like Van Morrison, but that song is the worst! UGH!

Can I add "Sweet Home Alabama," "Bad Moon Rising" and "Looking Out My Back Door" to the list?

Funny, although Coverdale did let Geico use the song. This thing was all over TV for a while:

[Vic2012]

^ Hilarious. Don't remember that commercial. Not a Whitesnake fan. But I like Coverdale with Deep Purple and that album he did with Jimmy Page.

I am blissfully unaware of both of these.
I hope I can remain so.

We often have the Today show on in the background when we get up and are playing around on our computers. Those two commercials are on non-stop.

[Klonk]

Songs in pubs that you can go the rest of your life without hearing. I'll start:

Sweet Caroline (Mr. Diamond). It's become a tired, irritating cliche.

I've always hated that song and I hate it even more now.

Surely mentioned already, but Garth Brooks - Friends in Low Places. When people start singing along to this in bars it makes me regret not carrying rat poison...

...and John Denver - Take Me Home Country Roads. When people start singing along to this it makes me regret not carrying anthrax.

[Camelogue]

God Bless America by Kate Smith

[SteveSly]

God Bless America by Kate Smith

Along similar lines, that Lee Greenwood song that they play at patriotic events. "Proud To Be An American" or something like that.

[Lopez]

God Bless America by Kate Smith

I went to college in Philly in the early 70s. For a while I thought it was fun her singing "God Bless America" at Flyers games, but then after a while it wore mighty thin (no pun intended; sorry, Kate).

[Vic2012]

Agree about the Garth Brooks song. I like some Country in pubs but it's cornball. Country Roads is cliche but I'll take it over Garth.

[Rarebird]

Songs I like, I never get tired of. But well, I don't listen that much to radio.

Stuff I don't like, I get tired of pretty quick and some things make me want to turn of the radio as soon as possible.
BZN
Frans Bauer and the likes really make me want to turn out the radio as soon as I hear the first note.

[Rajaz]

Crazy Train (Ozzy), We will rock you (Queen), anything from Dark side of the Moon and AC/DC...

Hey Lou! I want to hate that Redbone song, but I just can't My mom used to sing it to me when I was a kid and it always gives me that warm nostalgic glow.

[Rarebird]

That Redbone song is used in an energy commercial in The Netherlands.

It is in a commercial here in the U.S. that is on all the time too, but I don't remember the product.

You called it......

[mozo-pg]

[Johnkil]

Definitely very tired of Brown Eyed Girl. The Greenville (NY) Drive-In Theater is a great husband & wife operation. They have a happy hour in their small beer garden with one of the local bands (usually unplugged) playing before the Friday and Saturday shows. This sign is conspicuously posted in the beer garden and my wife and I both smiled when we saw it.

Apparently the wife of the team can't stand that song either.
