Yeah I know terrestrial radio (am/fm) is on the outs with a lot of folks, but what artists, songs--heck even commercials make you reach for the dial quicker than a cracked whip?
Songs that make you change the channel
- Thread starter BlueVelvetFog
- Start date
I'll start:
- Green Day. Never understood the hype.
- Black Crows. They had one hit --and it was a cover.
- 4 Non-Blondes. Should be obvious.

I like Green Day. The songs are simple, angsty and anthemic. Usually just a formulaic repeated power chord riff accompanying an outstanding rhythm section. They are definitely not for everyone, but good (not amazing) music.
It’s hard for me to say music I hate. I really define more what I like rather than what I don’t like.
Personally, I’m not very much into Billy Strings and jam bands. While I appreciate the technicality, the constant shredding and lack of refrain becomes tiring.

I’ll say Taylor Swift actually. Not a fan. Overplayed and overhyped.
Honestly I wouldn't recognize a note of anything she's done. There was a poster here who white knighted for her ad nauseum
Anything from the Beastie Boys. Always felt like it has to be some kind of joke that I missed out on.
I know this will be an extremely unpopular opinion, but I never liked Van Halen.

Bon Jovi. Gosh yes
Actually I have one.
And it might get me kicked off here.
Rolling Stones……overrated.

You have my support, and I’ll throw in the Beatles for good measure….never could listen to them.
Bruce Springsteen - boy George, they're basically the same guy
Anything grunge. Absolute death knell for rock sales . Depressing and can't even tap your toe too it. Yeah I'm really old.
“Waterfalls” by TLC is the worst song ever made.
“Fancy” by Reba is a close second….like wtf possessed you to write a song like that….and people liked it!

Wrong and I'm still disappointed they walked off after one song.
Hootie and the Blowflies or anything by Darius Rucker. Any version of Long Black Veil. Ricky Skaggs and almost all bluegrass. Anything by Reba Mcintyre. Mainstream country music. Lee Greenwood. But I never listen to channels that play those, anyway.
Oh yeah, Bob and Tom or their ilk.

Good choice. Rush is definitely not my thing.
Can’t say they’re underrated but i knew some people who would blare Rammstein and ICP. Garbage music. If you like it, I’m sorry, but to me that’s trash.
Mexican music or modern Rap - just me but it hits me like nails on a chalk board.
Springsteen is the only boss I listen to.
Van Halen is at the top of my list of most disliked musicians.
Can’t believe it’s not been mentioned yet- Rocky Top
I never listen to radio and haven't for MANY years, but I've enjoyed reading everyone's comments. Threads like this are cool ...
Just to weigh in ... Queen, Springsteen, Pink Floyd, Hair bands, most Jam bands, Rush and grunge bands never did it for me.
Generally-speaking, my favorite music is / was generated by British artists ...
Music is never worth arguing over ... that is why Baskin-Robbins has thirty-one (31) flavors.

As a general rule I don't like any rock from the 70s or 80s with rare exceptions like Pink Floyd. Journey, Rush, Kansas, Bob Seger, Van Halen, etc, all that is terrible to my ears. Don't care for hair metal either. No to Motley Crew, Def Leppard, Poison, Twisted Sister. My rock fandom is the 60s and stuff after 1989.

Who hates Cult of Personality?
I also think the song is overrated. It’s a very mid song. I think the tone of vocals clashes with the frequency of the guitars. Don’t understand why people love it so much. I definitely wouldn’t say it’s BAD per se, but it had some really odd engineering/production decisions. C+ song
I pretty much hate any song that repeats the same one to three words relentlessly
I am very tired of "Stairway to Heaven" and "Freebird" ... both great songs, but vastly overplayed.
Nowadays Morgan Wallen or Zach Bryan, except that revival song. I pay money to not hear their music.
To each their own. It's a classic to me.
We can all agree We Built This City is really everybody's number 1 I think.
