Sweet child of mine is played down here in Florida every 19 minutes. Here I go again, sweet home Alabama. Just the same tired songs that may have been good at one point just overplayed. When ever I hear the opening guitar part of sweet child I yell noooooo.’
Sweet Child O Mine was the weakest song on the Appetite For Destruction album. Mid 80’ hard rock marketing formula was to release a ballad as the second single off the album. I wish they chose a different song.
If you're looking for an argument, epic fail. Radio, in all it's forms, sucks. I'm an old fart, I have an ever expanding CD collection. Very eclectic. Peace out.
Very true, classic rock stations just rotate the same shit you got burned out on years or decades ago. Early FM radio was great because the DJs would play deep cuts or entire albums. The difference between then and now is although there is great music still being made it doesn’t get played. I’m to old for rap and pop is lightweight fluff and that is basically what you get as far as current music that gets FM airplay. I’m in Tampa Florida so I’m going to thank WMNF 88.5 for the broad spectrum of artists and music you play WUSF 89.7 is great Classical and Jazz. Those are the best radio stations in Tampa for my taste .
It doesn't help that the radio decides that every artist has only 3-4 songs that they need to play, and they're always the ones that were the most popular way back when, and they either sucked then or they suck now just from overplaying. And it bugs me because I've listened to every album Elton John, AC/DC, Aerosmith, Billy Joel, Queen, the Rolling Stones, and many others and there are lots of great songs that either weren't released as singles or were but tanked, so they never get played because people need to hear "Bohemian Rhapsody" or "Rocket Man" again.
A lot of them are overrated, but yes, I agree that a lot of it comes from overplaying. With how humour works now on the internet it's typical to see overplayed songs simply to be an ironic joke
I had an argument with a friend about Dylans Knocking on heavens door, which he can't stand. I mean it's not a bad song in any way, but it has been mangled and abused by so many not-so-talented people. Lots of songs have met that fate like you describe.
3 songs that are played every day that I can't stand to hear anymore. 1. Journey- Don't Stop Believin' 2. The Scorpions- Rock you like a Hurricane. 3. Toto- Africa

Radio didn't die from vicious competition, it died from constipation! Same thing with MTV! As my Daddy, before he left this cold, cruel world used to say, ''You can't force people to love something, but you can damn sure make them hate it.''
That was me with Star Wars '77. I finally did see it 7 months later and enjoyed the movie - but the media made me sick of the words Star Wars immediately after it released. Merchandising was at an all time excess. The fact I could go to a theater 7 months later and it was still playing should be a clue.
@@SANDSCORCHER: Actually, he tended not to say too much, unless he actually had something worth saying. Of course, if one asked his opinion, one was like to get it, both barrels. He seems wiser, as I get older.
There’s at least 30 Metallica songs that get played more than Hero of the Day. Bill got it right, Enter Sandman even gets played on roller coasters at Six Flags
was looking for this comment. I doubt he meant to say hero of the day, because hero was a very underrated song to me honestly, and in general. Most fans don’t even bring up that song I feel like imo lol I never came across that song until I was a lot older, and I was brought up on Metallica at a young age (Load or Reload were literally released my birth year).
Metallica is so sold out it ain't even funny. Master of Puppets is one of my all time fav albums, but they just turned into greedy, whiny, byotches lol. Six Flags! I heard it all now WOW 😮
So many talented writers out there, and what makes it to the mainstream is "Your love is like bad medicine, bad medicine is what I need." Never understood how Bon Jovi got a record contract, and it's only gotten worse since.
Bill, the Sabbath tune you were groping for was "Into the Void." Fun fact: Neil Diamond doesn't have Parkinson's -- he's just sick of singing "Sweet Caroline" to Red Sox fans.
I went to college in Boston in the early 90s and if I ever hear Brown Eyed Girl by Van Morrison or Sweet Caroline or Paradise by the dashboard light by Meatloaf again I'm going to jam an ice pick in my ears
Pink Floyd: "Another Brick in the wall prt.2" A great song in the context of the album and the story, but overplayed on the radio to the point of never wanting to hear it again unless I am listening to the album from start to finish.
Yeah, like, there are more great songs by Pink Floyd that deserve more play than Another Brick In The Wall (P.2), Like “Us And Them”, “Waiting For The Worms”, “Wish You Were Here”, etc.
100%. Song is overplayed to hell, can’t listen to it on the radio. But if you put the whole album on, you can’t skip it, it’s a fucking perfect ramp up leading into that and gives me chills every time.
In 2011, on the day of the 40 year anniversary of the Led Zeppelin IV album, our local radio station, which we listened to at work, talked about the album and that they're gonna play some of it. They played Stairway to Heaven freaking 14 times throughout the day. Yes, we counted it. Oh, and that was the only Led Zeppelin song the played that day.
That's so ridiculous.... In 2011 terrestrial radio was still this braindead. Digital music has been dominating for 7 years at that point and the podcast tsunami was about the crest and this is the mentality that radio stations had at the time.
1. For What It’s Worth - Buffalo Springfield 2. Don’t Stop Believing - Journey 3. All Star - Smashmouth 4. Spirit and the Sky - Norman Greenbaum 5. Tubthumping - Chumbawumba
Imagine by John Lennon I Wanna Know What Love Is by Foreigner Wind Of Change by Scorpions Final Countdown by Europe Jump by Van Halen Yellow Submarine & Ob-la-di, Ob-la-da by The Beatles These are all songs I hate from artists I like / love.
Heaven Can Wait by Maiden Escape by Metallica The Last Rose Of Summer by Judas Priest Bittersweet Symphony by The Verve Friday, I'm In Love by The Cure Money by Pink Floyd Are all songs I don't like by bands I love(d).
Def Leppard- Pour Some Sugar On Me Queen- We Are the Champions And in my area they ONLY play like 4 ACDC songs. ACDC literally has their first 3 albums filled entirely with good songs.
Id say every album before Flick Of The Switch was legendary but yeah: You Shook Me, Back In Black, Thunderstruck are three they have beaten to death.God forbid, you hear something from Powerage
Every track on there Bon Scott era is good, right up till Highway to Hell which is better than Back in Black. That's 5 album's, 1 EP, and a live album even.
It HAS to be said....Smoke on the Water lol ......Every other track on the album (Machine Head) is fantastic.Hendrix also falls into this realm for me.A true genius on the guitar(like Zappa), but people only know Purple Haze and Foxy Lady.It's a shame.
Holy Diver can never be overplayed. It rocks 100% every time. You throw me in a Guanatanamo Oubliett, with water boarding, sleep deprivation and HOLY DIVER playing full volume 24/7, and I'd still be dragged out of there throwing up the devil's horns. Also: the Stairway Solo is incredible. I always think stairway is a bit too much to listen to AGAIN, but by the time the solo lands I'm balls deep ready for it.
This is such an important topic. If you’re passionate about music the hate you have for bad or overplayed songs is equally as visceral. Like a Prayer and Holiday by Madonna can go away forever, while we’re at it.
Fortunate Son, Piano Man, Sweet Home Alabama, Brown Eyed Girl, Bad to The Bone, Copperhead Road, Old Time Rock & Roll, You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet, Maggie May, all overplayed on local FM radio. Working For The Weekend..
Hey, I'll trade ya my burnt out FM radio songs "Take on Me" and "Don't Stop Believing" (both played cyclically every day on every other classic rock station I'm dying heeeere!) for your burnt out "Maggie May" and "Fortunate Son"! You can keep the rest as I'm tormented with those here on a daily basis as well!
Love Brown Eyed Girl reminds me of my first true love so fuck you Bill ! Still love you though Bohemian Rhapsody sick of it Stairway all time hate that song gave away all my Zeppelin albums after hearing that song for the thousandth time
Incredible how lame and stale rock stations are, for me they are responsible of fueling this view of rock of something lame and repetitive "boomer" músic, it doesnt help when their playlist has been decades of the same 3 songs of the same 10 bands
Iron Maiden has a pile of legendary songs and yet, Run To The Hills is what everyone floods to. Its a fine song but it isn't shit against Hallowed Be Thy Name, The Trooper, Rime Of The Ancient Mariner, Phantom of The Opera, Fear of The Dark, The Wickerman, When The Wild Wind Blows, Wrathchild....i could literally name 50 better and the general public would go " huh?"
Just give me the whole Seventh Son of a Seventh Son album and I'm happy as far as maiden is concerned. Fear of the Dark is a monster, hallowed be thy name, etc. All way better than run to the hills
The album’s called Fair Warning freckles and it’s definitely the most underrated Van Halen album. Diver Down is barely even an album but the song The Full Bug rocks.
Women and Children First is my vote for worst Dave-era album...there are some absolute gems on Diver Down despite the covers (and the covers aren't as "bad" as folks are claiming).
I saw Queen in the 70s were so stoked to see how they pulled off the middle part of BR and they just left the stage And a recording played while the lights flashed on an empty stage. They came back out for the fast part. We were let down
Theres a Lot of bs that nostalgic fans tends to forget, specially with this whole "music now it's not real musi, love artist use autotine and blablabla" when before You have bs like these with one of the most famous and respected bands, theres a Lot of "live videos" of that era that are just basically playback and people eats them whole saying they sounded the same as the record, figures lol
7 nation army by the white stripes. Its overplayed and its so unlike the most of their songs. All their other songs are really bluesy and 7 nation army just sorta feels like catering to everyone instead of what they normally sound like
The real problem came when commercialism took over F.M. radio and DJs were *forced* to play the same 40 (Top 40) songs over and over again. I've been around long enough to hear and appreciate the deep cut stations that didn't cater to any conglomerate where it was Rory Gallagher instead of George Thorogood! Yeah I know, "who's Rory Gallagher???" You should look him up on here. Irish Tour '74, you can thank me later. Better example; Cream early Eric Clapton Disraeli Gears. Grungy guitar played through a fuzz box, killer. Jimi Hendrix anything but Purple Haze. You had to have been there.
5. Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen 4. Livin’ on a Prayer - Nirvana 3. Best Day of My Life - American Authors 2. It’s Tricky - Run DMC 1. The Star-Spangled Banner
Oh can we definitely ban the national anthem? It's a nice piece and it takes a semi talented singer but yeah you have a point. But that would probably lead to a new national anthem that was mumble rap and paid for by Coca-Cola.
Yeah but nobody and I mean nobody listens to the national anthem as music. It will never be on the radio or at parties. It can’t be mentioned with the others
I just love that they’re naming bar songs. I loved all these songs until I started working as a bouncer at a couple bars that also had karaoke every week. Same guys, same
Damn, you nailed a few of mine; 1. Bohemian Rhapsody 2. Stairway to Heaven 3. You Shook Me All Night Long I'll add; 4. Living on a Prayer 5. Don't Stop Believing 6. American Pie 7. One Bourbon, One Shot & One Beer 8. Signs Laughed at Iron Man, my gateway to Sabbath drug. & You meant Fair Warning by VH, my favorite album by them.
How u feel bout tha piece of dogshit Kid Rock song dat sampled "sweet home alabama" in its entirety? Word is bond, i think i hate it een more than tha original
@@awnaur0no919 ... Glad to say I've never heard Rock's remake but I can't imagine how I could hate it more than the original. PS STATION OWNERS Unless your radio tower is in Alabama soil DON'T EVER play that song again!!! 😁🤣
1. Sweet Caroline - Neil Diamond 2. Bennie and the Jets - Elton John 3. We’re not Gonna Take it - Twisted Sister 4. Livin on a Prayer - Bon Jovi 5. Rock and Roll All Night - Kiss Can’t stand these songs
I remember in the late 90s at the Foufoune Électrique in Montréal on Black Mondays, they'll put dance music until 11 pm. Then, they put Violent Femme's Blister In The Sun.......You immediately knew after that song, they'll be a string of mosh pit songs coming after (Pantera - Slayer - RATM - Offspring - Marilyn Manson - Korn.....Not the ballad type songs)...2$ a beer bottle.....Those were the days....
Cherry Pie has to be number 1. Interview with the guy where he literally sounds like he wants to end himself for being forever known as the Cherry Pie guy 😪
Jani Lane actually did kill himself. For years he had depression because his legacy was "the Cherry Pie guy". The best song by Warrant is Uncle Tom's Cabin. 10000000x better.
@@bradmacarthur3810 I kinda like that song. Like yeah, other Warrant songs are definitely better from a songwriting standpoint but Cherry Pie is a very fun, feel-good type of song
This topic is so near and dear to my heart. I despise an entire radio station. Rock 105.3 in San Diego. When I was stationed there in 2005-2008 it was my favorite. Having moved back into the area in 2015, to this day I hate them now always playing the same damn lineup. They made me hate Three Days Grace. Can't stand Bad Wolves. My favorite band is Slipknot, and the only song they ever play from them is my least favorite, Psychosocial. Hate listening to the same songs over and over from Metallica, AC/DC, Ozzy, Black Sabbath, Linkin Park, I know I'm missing many more, but yeah, screw you 105.3
Nice shout-out to "Electric Funeral," the coolest-ass Sabbath song ever. My high school metal band named ourselves after that song. Fun as hell to play, too.
Nickel back rockstar kills me go that fucking song.... An smashmouth... Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me... Idk the name of that one but shit the killed it on the radio...
@Patrick Whelpley yeah, good songs but not near their best and then too overplayed on top of that. Don’t look back in anger gets played maybe as much but is a far superior song
Wonderwall is overplayed but it probably also was their best song. I mean I love almost everything of theirs, but objectively Wonderwall is just the best-written song they have. Maybe Live Forever.
@@cisium1184 hmm I mean struggle to believe you’ve properly listened to The Masteprlan, Supersonic and Cast No Shadow then really, but each to their own
@@kJ922-h3j Out of concern for your "struggle," which I am sure has caused you much pain, I will be direct: my opinion is correct, while yours is not merely wrong but stupid. This is because I have listened to all Oasis songs many more times than you ever will - in fact have those three songs playing 24/7 in my house, so there is no way you will ever catch up with me. Also, I am smarter and better than you in every conceivable way. Superior judgment flows from me like piss from an infant, while your judgment is similar to that of a unicellular parasitic organism with a predilection for consuming its own excrement. I hereby declare your "struggle" ended.
stairway, freebird, dream on, old time rock and roll , turn the page all because they stuffed them all down our throats on fm radio in the late 70 thru 90s
Been caught stealing by Jane's addiction. Amazing band. Amazing album. The only song that gets played anymore and didn't reflect their sound in a similar way to faith no more and their from out of nowhere album.
I’ll still listen to anyone of them and love it if the mood is right. I can always listen to the Sweet Child of Mine solo. One of my favorites of all time. Don’t Stop Believing and Bohemian Rhapsody are two of my favorite drunk songs.
Honestly I wish classic rock stations would play more songs that deserve more play and attention like “Peace Of Mind” By Boston, “A Day In The Life” By The Beatles, “Teenage Lament’ 74” By Alice Cooper, “Open Arms” By Journey, “Undercover Angel” By Alan O’Day, etc. I don’t want to listen to Bohemian Rhapsody for the 1 millionth time in a row, because it does get tiring when songs like that gets played for days on repeat
the black album is good but the really good stuff from metallica is from rtl and master of puppets. i like enter sandman and the unforgiven but for once play something else like battery, creeping death even blackened, fits the current situation perfectly...
1) Eric Clapton - Cocaine. Been tired of that one for years. Never liked it to begin with. 2) Lynyrd Skynyrd - Freebird. Same as above. 3) Black Sabbath - One of my favorite bands but I don't think I can listen to Paranoid (the song) again. 4) Emerson Lake, and Palmer - Another of my faves but all they ever play on classic rock channels is Lucky Man or From the Beginning. They have so much better material that you never hear. 5) The Beatles - Hey Jude. See 1 and 2. Holy crap, over 50 years of this turd. 6) Queen - Another One Bites the Dust/We Are the Champions
There needs to be a vault that everybody can vote to lock up songs for like 25 years. And then stations won't have to play fuckin stairway, rhapsody, freebird, dream on, sandman, Jeremy, teen spirit, iron man. I think those are the major offenders. I know there's at least 30 more. Just lock them up. Can't play them until 2050. Then when the vaults unlocked you'd be like okay I can listen to this again without wanting to kill people.
What are some songs that everybody loves that you hate? 🤔👇
That punk ass hokey pokey
Happy birthday
Merry christmas
I hate my life
Hotel California
American Pie
Don't stop believing
Enter Sandman
As a British person I think maybe our overplayed songs differ. For instance if I ever hear wonderwall ever again I might kill someone.
i hated wonderwall even before it was constantly played but i love Oasis
Kill someone? I'm throwing myself off a cliff if I have to hear that piece of shit again.
Same oasis are one of my fav bands ever but that song is so overplayed I cant listen to it anymore, Don’t look back in anger as well
Exactly, I wish they would play Columbia or Bring it down more often than fucking Wonder wall!!
We heard it nonstop in the States when it came out, but it faded over time, thank fuck...
Sweet child of mine is played down here in Florida every 19 minutes. Here I go again, sweet home Alabama. Just the same tired songs that may have been good at one point just overplayed. When ever I hear the opening guitar part of sweet child I yell noooooo.’

Smoke on the Water: the first thing guitarists learned from it's release through the 80's, ugg...
Hendrix cover of Bob Dylans all along the watchtower is pretty damn great, despite it being overplayed.
Okay but Smoke on the Water has a sweet solo though
@@DoomWar1sadly the rest of the song it's fking boring
Holy Diver can never be overplayed. It rocks 100% every time. You throw me in a Guanatanamo Oubliett, with water boarding, sleep deprivation and HOLY DIVER playing full volume 24/7, and I'd still be dragged out of there throwing up the devil's horns.
Also: the Stairway Solo is incredible. I always think stairway is a bit too much to listen to AGAIN, but by the time the solo lands I'm balls deep ready for it.
Dio has many better songs that weren't played to death. Rainbow in the dark, Last In Line and We Rock are way better.
@@YachtsOnTheReg7 they are all THE GREATEST
i absolutely fuckin hate Don’t Stop Believin by Journey, i never have either
There are so many Beatles songs I like and the same with Lennon , but Hey Jude and Imagine drive me up the wall
Beatle fan here and I agree. I can't listen to Hey Jude either. It's one of the few Beatles songs I skip over.
Oh god Hey Jude has definitely gotta go on my list
I totally understand what you guys are saying, but I still love both those tunes. Sgt. Pepper's and Back in the U.S.S.R are the ones I have to skip.
More than a feeling. Do we really need to hear that again??
No wonder Brad Delp killed himself.
I love Nirvana, but if Smells Like Teen Spirit comes on, I'm not spending my 5 minutes on it.
Ugh to think of how much I loved it the first time I heard it and how unbearable it is now
I’m a Territorial Pissings man myself.
Smells Like Teen Spirit was never a good song. Nirvana sucks balls.
Fart Cobain was garbage. 😂😂
Yeah, “Come as you are” and “Heart-Shaped Box” were always the better songs
Lithium, Breed, Territorial Pissings, On A Plain and Rape Me were all much better
This is such an important topic. If you’re passionate about music the hate you have for bad or overplayed songs is equally as visceral. Like a Prayer and Holiday by Madonna can go away forever, while we’re at it.
🤣🤣🤣🤣!!
"Gotta keep 'em separated"
Do you think they played that at a Clan meeting!!
Lost My S**t!🤣🤣
That shit was gold🤣
i totally missed that, thats fucking hilarous
Sweet Home Alabama
Bohemian Rhapsody
The Joker - Steve Miller Band
Bill impersonating Metallica was what I needed today haha
I’ll take him doing Dio sounding like Beavis lol
Fortunate Son, Piano Man, Sweet Home Alabama, Brown Eyed Girl, Bad to The Bone, Copperhead Road, Old Time Rock & Roll, You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet, Maggie May, all overplayed on local FM radio. Working For The Weekend..
Hey, I'll trade ya my burnt out FM radio songs "Take on Me" and "Don't Stop Believing" (both played cyclically every day on every other classic rock station I'm dying heeeere!) for your burnt out "Maggie May" and "Fortunate Son"! You can keep the rest as I'm tormented with those here on a daily basis as well!
Van morrisson is amazing . Brown eyed girl was overplayed.
But songs like tupelo honey, into the mystic are just 2 of his masterpieces.
Sweet thing, everytime I hear a river, astral weeks. All brilliant.
Van is brilliant. And Van hates Brown Eyed Girl. So it’s no shade on him.
Agreed. I love Van Morrison but I have grown to hate Brown Eyed Girl.
Van's still turning out gems and crushing it live. Legend.
Love Brown Eyed Girl reminds me of my first true love so fuck you Bill ! Still love you though Bohemian Rhapsody sick of it Stairway all time hate that song gave away all my Zeppelin albums after hearing that song for the thousandth time
Estelle - American Boy
Owl City - Fireflies
Miley Cyrus - The Climb
Anything else they play in grocery stores ad nauseum
Every time I hear Owl City I immediately get the urge to listen to Darkthrone
Who the hell are these people?
Bill, that Sabbath song you sang is called “Into the Void.”
I thought he was doing "Symptom of the universe."
@@pazuzu7779 He's doing the verse part of "Into the Void." : "Rocket engines burning fuel so fast / Up into the night sky they blast."
You can basically put the tracklist of any "classic" rock station on here
100 percent
Incredible how lame and stale rock stations are, for me they are responsible of fueling this view of rock of something lame and repetitive "boomer" músic, it doesnt help when their playlist has been decades of the same 3 songs of the same 10 bands
The ultimate "love the band, but hate the song, and it's the only one anyone knows" HAS to be "More Than Words" by Extreme.
Iron Maiden has a pile of legendary songs and yet, Run To The Hills is what everyone floods to. Its a fine song but it isn't shit against Hallowed Be Thy Name, The Trooper, Rime Of The Ancient Mariner, Phantom of The Opera, Fear of The Dark, The Wickerman, When The Wild Wind Blows, Wrathchild....i could literally name 50 better and the general public would go " huh?"
Love Killers, that album doesn't get much love, thanks for mentioning Wrath Child.
Just give me the whole Seventh Son of a Seventh Son album and I'm happy as far as maiden is concerned. Fear of the Dark is a monster, hallowed be thy name, etc. All way better than run to the hills
@@chizoramaprodigal son is low key one of the best maiden songs.
@@xGOOFYJELLYFISH Yessir, one of my favorites.
Huh?
Don't Stop Believing, Blinded by the Light, Enter Sandman, Sweet Child O Mine
I wish I had four hands so I could give you four thumbs up lol
I absolutely detest those songs
Steppenwolf - Born to be Wild
Known from any movie with a car or bike ever
I love it cause it reminds me of the Tour of Duty intro, from the ‘80s. Loved that show.
Also played in every grocery store in an area with a lot of old white people
Easy Rider is literally the only thing I can think of whenever I hear that song lol
I love early Steppenwolf soo much that it overrides the fact that it's overplayed. Maybe the only song in the world that pulls that off.
For Ladies Only. Underrated Steppenwolf album.
Most overrated music? The playlist of every single classic rock station in America.
There, job done.
True
Yeah, if we could just put sanctions on classic rock stations. If you play one more single, America will sue you into the dirt.
It turns out that it’s actually better to be an ‘old man’ than to hear Neil Young sing about it.
Preach brother!
Ironically, old man being sung by a whiny, old lady named Young
@@TheJbhmetalBrilliant 🙄
@@terrra_2024 someone had to say it
1. Any Queen song, 2. Stairway to Heaven, 3. Sweet Home Alabama, 4. Love Shack, and 5. Proud Mary
Bill's "grunge singing" at 10:14 is amazing.
All Bill’s music impressions are amazing. His Dio right before the grunge was amazing. His vocalization of rhythms is very good.
1. Mr Brightside
2. Sweet child of mine
3. Don't stop believing
The Slash solo saves sweet child of mine
The album’s called Fair Warning freckles and it’s definitely the most underrated Van Halen album. Diver Down is barely even an album but the song The Full Bug rocks.
little guitars is pretty great too.
Excellent starement, in fully agree.
Looks like an angel but she just talking trash. The Full Bug. Rawks.
Mean Streets and Unchained are amazing.
Women and Children First is my vote for worst Dave-era album...there are some absolute gems on Diver Down despite the covers (and the covers aren't as "bad" as folks are claiming).
I saw Queen in the 70s were so stoked to see how they pulled off the middle part of BR and they just left the stage
And a recording played while the lights flashed on an empty stage.
They came back out for the fast part. We were let down
How lame.
They dipped for some sugar and came back for the end lol
Theres a Lot of bs that nostalgic fans tends to forget, specially with this whole "music now it's not real musi, love artist use autotine and blablabla" when before You have bs like these with one of the most famous and respected bands, theres a Lot of "live videos" of that era that are just basically playback and people eats them whole saying they sounded the same as the record, figures lol
Cheap trick “want you to want me live”
BTO “Taking care of Business”
Skynrd “Sweet home Alabama”
Aerosmith “janies got a gun”
The list goes on and on
7 nation army by the white stripes. Its overplayed and its so unlike the most of their songs. All their other songs are really bluesy and 7 nation army just sorta feels like catering to everyone instead of what they normally sound like
Totally agree. The worst part is it's now the chanting anthem for every douche sports arena and stadium in the world.
@@mikeyneggs6873 couldn't agree more, when I see the drunken old farts do that at darts matches I cringe hard. Used to like that song aswell
How about "shut up and dance with me" heart radio hear in the UK plays it constantly makes my ears bleed
How in the hell is Seven Nation Army not bluesy?
@@Howitchewstofeel5gum go listen to torrential outpour blues or rag and bone and tell me they carry the same vibes as 7 nation army
Don’t Stop Believing
Bohemian Rhapsody
Hot Blooded
Sweet Child O Mine
Livin on a Prayer
Any ballpark shyt, agreed.
I fucking hate sweet child O mine
All 5 can be found on the same compilation album released with a different name every year,, advertised just before fathers day.
Hotel California
Freebird
Piano man (all Billy Joel really)
Paradise City
The Boys Are Back In Town
How can you dislike hot blooded?? I get the other songs but Jesus.
Panama, Brown Eyed Girl and every Bruce Springsteen song.
"Boooorn in the U S A!! Booorn in the U S A!!
🤮
@@aquatarkus2022 I cannot STAND that song! My brother used to amuse me with his Springsteen impression of that song. That was fun at least.
I also really hate the fact that ballads by otherwise loud rock or metal bands are usually the only songs the masses know in their discography
I also feel the same way about AC/DC's "You Shook Me All Night Long", it has been so overplayed on the radio that I also frequently skip it.
Ac dc are on cord wonders. They suck.
You take that back!
Same with Back In Black. I always skip it because it's so overplayed on the radio.
@@Jar0fMay0 That might be an American curse
@@СлаваССС-м4с Wrong
7:17 Bill Burr singing Blackened "Meshuggah-Style"!
Sounds more like Hardwired at the end lol
Over played: Bon Jovi dead or alive and the eagles hotel California
Definitely!
everything Bon Jovi. It's my liiiiiiiife, dude ur like 40
Big Eagles fan and couldn't agree more.
The real problem came when commercialism took over F.M. radio and DJs were *forced* to play the same 40 (Top 40) songs over and over again. I've been around long enough to hear and appreciate the deep cut stations that didn't cater to any conglomerate where it was Rory Gallagher instead of George Thorogood! Yeah I know, "who's Rory Gallagher???" You should look him up on here. Irish Tour '74, you can thank me later. Better example; Cream early Eric Clapton Disraeli Gears. Grungy guitar played through a fuzz box, killer. Jimi Hendrix anything but Purple Haze. You had to have been there.
5. Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen
4. Livin’ on a Prayer - Nirvana
3. Best Day of My Life - American Authors
2. It’s Tricky - Run DMC
1. The Star-Spangled Banner
I didn't know Nirvana covered a Bon Jovi song
That American Authors song was literally everywhere in 2013
It's not a bad song... but they play the national anthem at like every sporting event I've ever been to.
Oh can we definitely ban the national anthem? It's a nice piece and it takes a semi talented singer but yeah you have a point. But that would probably lead to a new national anthem that was mumble rap and paid for by Coca-Cola.
That's one of my favourite Radiohead songs
Yeah but nobody and I mean nobody listens to the national anthem as music. It will never be on the radio or at parties. It can’t be mentioned with the others
@@pushthetempo2 Radiohead!? I LUV Smells Like Teen Spirit!
Yeah fuck that I know where I live
I just love that they’re naming bar songs.
I loved all these songs until I started working as a bouncer at a couple bars that also had karaoke every week.
Same guys, same
I'm 62 and I hear the same songs on the radio that I heard when I was 14. FM radio sucks.
Even someone that refuses to listen to any music at all knows about 15-20 Kinks songs. They just don't realize it.
Waterloo Sunset is one of the best songs ever written in any genre.
Damn, you nailed a few of mine;
1. Bohemian Rhapsody
2. Stairway to Heaven
3. You Shook Me All Night Long
I'll add;
4. Living on a Prayer
5. Don't Stop Believing
6. American Pie
7. One Bourbon, One Shot & One Beer
8. Signs
Laughed at Iron Man, my gateway to Sabbath drug. & You meant Fair Warning by VH, my favorite album by them.
*One scotch
Stairway is so boring and slow until it picks up mat the end, it's like listening to an audio book...
November Rain - GNR, Satisfaction - Rolling Stones, Thriller - Michael Jackson, Pinball Wizard - The Who, Mack the Knife - Bobby Darrin.
Who even plays Bobby Darin anymore???
Bill burrs offspring joke was so quick
No such thing as an over played Iron Maiden song 🤟 Turn that sh** up!!!
Hate .... Walk This Way!!! 🤮🤢... Hear SWEET HOME ALABAMA one more time and I'm goin postal somewhere!!
How u feel bout tha piece of dogshit Kid Rock song dat sampled "sweet home alabama" in its entirety? Word is bond, i think i hate it een more than tha original
@@awnaur0no919 ... Glad to say I've never heard Rock's remake but I can't imagine how I could hate it more than the original. PS STATION OWNERS Unless your radio tower is in Alabama soil DON'T EVER play that song again!!! 😁🤣
1. Sweet Caroline - Neil Diamond
2. Bennie and the Jets - Elton John
3. We’re not Gonna Take it - Twisted Sister
4. Livin on a Prayer - Bon Jovi
5. Rock and Roll All Night - Kiss
Can’t stand these songs
Anything by Springsteen especially born in the USA.
This conversation was like talking to my best friend over drinks. Too funny.
Journey - Don't Stop Believing - waaaaaaaay too many times I have heard that song
Worst karaoke song as well...
Oh god... yes. That's a song a single middle age women sings at some bar
I grew up around rap and pop music for most of my life, and recently discovered classic rock so these songs are still pretty new to me
Don’t let their opinion color your view of these songs.
Don't listen to classic rock radio because you'll hate them eventually.
Ace of Spades is Motorhead's most popular song but it never gets old if you like really raw 80s Rock. Run To the Hills by Iron Maiden is great too.
Too Hot to Handle by UFO is a great 70s classic rock song.
Wild Flower, Lil Devil, Love Removal Machine, and She Sells Sanctuary by The Cult are all classics
I remember in the late 90s at the Foufoune Électrique in Montréal on Black Mondays, they'll put dance music until 11 pm. Then, they put Violent Femme's Blister In The Sun.......You immediately knew after that song, they'll be a string of mosh pit songs coming after (Pantera - Slayer - RATM - Offspring - Marilyn Manson - Korn.....Not the ballad type songs)...2$ a beer bottle.....Those were the days....
The editing in this video is fantastic.
Jane's Addiction never need to hear been caught steeling ever again.
Fact
JUUUUSSSSTTTTTT BEEEECCCCAAAUUUUSEEE caused 10000 suicides in 2 summers in atlanta due to unavailability of decent rock in the market
If only there were an applause button
Cherry Pie has to be number 1. Interview with the guy where he literally sounds like he wants to end himself for being forever known as the Cherry Pie guy 😪
I laughed and laughed when Jani Lane said that.
The crazy thing is that he did end himself!
Jani Lane actually did kill himself. For years he had depression because his legacy was "the Cherry Pie guy". The best song by Warrant is Uncle Tom's Cabin. 10000000x better.
Not True. Nobody likes that song .
@@bradmacarthur3810 I kinda like that song. Like yeah, other Warrant songs are definitely better from a songwriting standpoint but Cherry Pie is a very fun, feel-good type of song
This topic is so near and dear to my heart. I despise an entire radio station. Rock 105.3 in San Diego. When I was stationed there in 2005-2008 it was my favorite. Having moved back into the area in 2015, to this day I hate them now always playing the same damn lineup. They made me hate Three Days Grace. Can't stand Bad Wolves. My favorite band is Slipknot, and the only song they ever play from them is my least favorite, Psychosocial. Hate listening to the same songs over and over from Metallica, AC/DC, Ozzy, Black Sabbath, Linkin Park, I know I'm missing many more, but yeah, screw you 105.3
“Blinded by the Light”. I hated that song 40 years ago and it’s still on the radio all the time
Nice shout-out to "Electric Funeral," the coolest-ass Sabbath song ever. My high school metal band named ourselves after that song. Fun as hell to play, too.
Sweet Home Alabama
Enter Sandman
What If God Was One Of Us?
Soak Up The Sun
What If God Smoked Cannabis is really good though
Soak up the sun is such a fall from grace for Sheryl Crow. Her first album is a banger through and through, though.
Radiohead - Creep
Nickel back rockstar kills me go that fucking song.... An smashmouth... Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me... Idk the name of that one but shit the killed it on the radio...
Red, red wine. UB40.
.
Constant play on radio 1.
.
Bat out of hell, Meatloaf - someone had the tape - "let's play it over and over again.
All great picks from the boys!
I feel like in america they just play wonderwall by Oasis and it’s the same thing as bill said with AC/DC and the others
@Patrick Whelpley yeah, good songs but not near their best and then too overplayed on top of that. Don’t look back in anger gets played maybe as much but is a far superior song
I think that's the case everywhere outside of the UK. Here in Germany they also play 80% Wonderwall, 20% Don't Look Back in Anger.
Wonderwall is overplayed but it probably also was their best song. I mean I love almost everything of theirs, but objectively Wonderwall is just the best-written song they have. Maybe Live Forever.
@@cisium1184 hmm I mean struggle to believe you’ve properly listened to The Masteprlan, Supersonic and Cast No Shadow then really, but each to their own
@@kJ922-h3j Out of concern for your "struggle," which I am sure has caused you much pain, I will be direct: my opinion is correct, while yours is not merely wrong but stupid. This is because I have listened to all Oasis songs many more times than you ever will - in fact have those three songs playing 24/7 in my house, so there is no way you will ever catch up with me. Also, I am smarter and better than you in every conceivable way. Superior judgment flows from me like piss from an infant, while your judgment is similar to that of a unicellular parasitic organism with a predilection for consuming its own excrement. I hereby declare your "struggle" ended.
stairway, freebird, dream on, old time rock and roll , turn the page all because they stuffed them all down our throats on fm radio in the late 70 thru 90s
Old time rock and roll always reminds me of old people dancing at weddings.
Night Moves never disappoints.
Living on a Prayer, Walking on Sunshine, Joker (Steve Miller), Seven Nation Army (White Stripes), I Would Do Anything for Love (Meatloaf)
That was fun. I especially loved the Faith No More mention.
Been caught stealing by Jane's addiction. Amazing band. Amazing album. The only song that gets played anymore and didn't reflect their sound in a similar way to faith no more and their from out of nowhere album.
One of the worst songs from a great band.
Mountain Song way better.
Don’t stop believing
Sweet Child of mine
Stairway to heaven
Bohemian Rhapsody
Enter sandman
Can’t stand em
Bruh
I’ll still listen to anyone of them and love it if the mood is right. I can always listen to the Sweet Child of Mine solo. One of my favorites of all time. Don’t Stop Believing and Bohemian Rhapsody are two of my favorite drunk songs.
Honestly I wish classic rock stations would play more songs that deserve more play and attention like “Peace Of Mind” By Boston, “A Day In The Life” By The Beatles, “Teenage Lament’ 74” By Alice Cooper, “Open Arms” By Journey, “Undercover Angel” By Alan O’Day, etc. I don’t want to listen to Bohemian Rhapsody for the 1 millionth time in a row, because it does get tiring when songs like that gets played for days on repeat
Peace of mind by Boston is great
You forgot "More than a feeling" by Boston
the black album is good but the really good stuff from metallica is from rtl and master of puppets. i like enter sandman and the unforgiven but for once play something else like battery, creeping death even blackened, fits the current situation perfectly...
Breadfan is a great song
I am going with Dream On and Don't Fear The Reaper.... Also Freebird.
Ohhhhhhh...
You got a point.
Love in an elevator is the absolute worst Aerosmith song
1) Eric Clapton - Cocaine. Been tired of that one for years. Never liked it to begin with.
2) Lynyrd Skynyrd - Freebird. Same as above.
3) Black Sabbath - One of my favorite bands but I don't think I can listen to Paranoid (the song) again.
4) Emerson Lake, and Palmer - Another of my faves but all they ever play on classic rock channels is Lucky Man or From the Beginning. They have so much better material that you never hear.
5) The Beatles - Hey Jude. See 1 and 2. Holy crap, over 50 years of this turd.
6) Queen - Another One Bites the Dust/We Are the Champions
There needs to be a vault that everybody can vote to lock up songs for like 25 years. And then stations won't have to play fuckin stairway, rhapsody, freebird, dream on, sandman, Jeremy, teen spirit, iron man. I think those are the major offenders. I know there's at least 30 more. Just lock them up. Can't play them until 2050. Then when the vaults unlocked you'd be like okay I can listen to this again without wanting to kill people.
Lars killed "And Justice" in the mix. At least you could hear Jason's awesome bass playing on Black.
