5 Songs I really never need to hear again
1. The Temptations- "My Girl" If there's a song that's ever been more overplayed on the radio, I can't think of it. Not that it's a bad song, because obviously it isn't, but after about the 300-fucking-000th time, well, it gets a bit old. It can only be worse for those of you who were alive when it first came out.
2. R.E.M.- "Losing My Religion" About 5 or 6 years ago, I briefly allowed my contempt for this song to abate. R.E.M. had just performed it on VH1's Storytellers, and Michael Stipe finally explained that the song was not about religion, but about being at the end of one's rope, and not knowing what to do. I think he also said it had something to do with a girl, but who cares. Stop playing it already.
3. Jimmy Buffett- "Cheeseburger In Paradise" I'm annoyed just typing those words. What a dickbird. The kicker? It's actually about cheeseburgers. Sample lyrics: "Cheeseburger in paradise/ Makin’ the best of every virtue and vice/ Worth every damn bit of sacrifice/ To get a cheeseburger in paradise/ To be a cheeseburger in paradise/ I’m just a cheeseburger in paradise. "
4. George Thorogood- "Bad To the Bone" I seriously don't know what the auto industry would do had this song never been written. Really, the entire advertising industry would be in the shitter. Does driving a Cadillac and/or eating a Pizza Hut Stuffed Crust Pizza really make you bad to the bone? This song is either the best beer commercial ever, or the worst real song ever written. Either way, get it the fuck off my tv.
5. Fucking Anything by Phil Collins- But, seriously. Anything he's ever written or sung. If I were a disgruntled military general in a crumbling Communist country, Phil Collins would be the first up against the wall come the Revolution.
No, Phil, you're the man.
