@@eldorado852 OK then. Let's take a look at what we do know. We know that he settled one case out of court for $25million!! Now what does that tell you? Because it tells me that if someone had made those accusations against me, the vilest accusations imaginable, and I was paying a lawyer $50,000 a year, I could fight my case for *five* *hundred* years with the money he paid to just make it go away. Two musicians who were on tour with him took the stand and said that they quit the tour because they couldn't handle seeing boys going in and out of his hotel room all the time. His travel agent took the stand and said she was authorised to fly to other countries and bring boys back to America for him. He was even caught on tape saying "let's give them some Jesus juice", which we all know meant wine. Finally, you never heard a single female of any age, anywhere, claim to have had a physical relationship with him, ever. In fact, you never heard a grown man make that claim either - and someone with his profile wouldn't have been able to keep that quiet. If you're a celebrity, someone somewhere will come out and say "I sh@gged him", but that never happened with him. The only sexual references ever made about Michael Jackson came from kids, specifically boys between the ages of 10 and 14; never females that age or older and never mature men. He was a mega-rich pervert who bought his way out of prison.
His Jackson Five & pre Thriller stuff is ok if you like Motown 70s pop, a lot of his biggest hits from around that time were written by Rod Temperton from Cleethorpes
I’ll go you one further. A band I love and hate equally: Chicago….their early years, especially the first 5 albums, are some of the finest, most innovative rock (w/horns) with a singer who played like Hendrix and sang like Ray Charles…I speak of course of the criminally underrated Terry Kath. Of course after he died they sold out and became another dime a dozen pop ballad act, and practically abandoned the horn section. To be fair, several of the band members hated their 80s output too, but even still.

@@Stonecutter334 Well you could've fooled me.

I like Green Day but, I prefer Ramones, Bad Brains, Misfits, Germs, Descendants, Sex Pistols, Op Ivy, Sublime, and Minor Threat. Nothing against Green Day. I like their first 4 records. I think Insomniac is underrated as is Kerplunk.
Time as not been kind to Springsteen -like a working-class hero when he first came on the air - someone for the average Joe to look-up to -should have quit while he was winning I say - leaving a legacy -now he is just a money-grabbing dud living off past glories.
He’s never been working class but he pretended to be long enough to make friends, and then tell you how to vote. Pretty much the same as the rest. “If you know the name, they’re in the game”
He got smacked in the head with a Woody Guthrie album. That caused him to stumble into a Bob Dylan concert and he came out thinking he was both of theirs illegitimate son. What really grates me is that no matter what he farts out, no matter how cringey, his "fans" will swear it is a masterpiece.
@@foreverpinkf.7603 In Rainbows, Kid A, Amnesiac, Moon Shaped Pool are all exceptional albums. Hail to the Thief is pretty good too but King of Limbs sucked
Biggest waste of talent in rock history. He's got the wall of sound down perfectly but what does he do? Uses it to make his depressing lyrics even more ominous. The result: music to kill yourself by. Five good songs on The River and maybe a couple others here and there show what he's capable of if he used his talent for real rock n' roll.
U2 is a band with a couple of classic records, Joshua Tree and Achtung Baby are extraordinary. If You can't stand bono i get it but those two albums are phenomenal.
@@tom4liberty Well, not quite all of them… Your starter for ten: name the members of U2. Easy! There’s Bono; The Edge; um, the drummer and the bass player. Yup, world famous band…
Aren't Nickelback hated mostly, because they were a "grunge sell out" kind of band ... so all the old Pearl Jam and Nirvana folks went ballistic on the a**
Never ever liked them or understood the appeal. I feel like they fall into that category of bands that you’re “supposed” to like, so people just do…but I always wonder, do they really?? 😂😂
Easy for me, i hate every rap/hip hop band, teen pop band, boy band/girl band, pop queens and princeses and every mainstreem crap that came out in the past 25 years
The singer's wife is in a better band, Nico Vega. During the Grammy Awards, Imagine Dragons hit a bunch of large drums that had colored chalk on them. That idea came from a Nico Vega video.
Ace of bass. You bastard, how dare you remind me of that dreadful shite. It took me years to get that dreadful song "all that she wants" out of my head, and now you have brought it back.
Mike & the Mechanics & Coldplay both fall into the category of music for people who don't really like music - it's just something bland to fill a hole.
The Kaiser Chiefs- that 'I predict a riot' garbage. Utter cak. You mentioned Spandau Ballet. I've always hated Duran Duran. I thought they were crap at the time and I've never changed my mind. Everyone should hate them for the chorus of Reflex alone- that 'why aye aye aye' thing in it, absolutely appalling.
I have to take exception with you saying that Michael Jackson transformed himself into 'a post-menopausal Diana Ross' - he was clearly going more for the Liz Taylor look.
It's well known that Michael and Latoya Jackson were one and the same person. You never saw them together, they were never on tour at the same time and she does not appear in any family photos from when the boys were young. Plus, "Latoya" is very nearly an anagram of "Taylor". I've been spreading this "theory" as a joke for decades, but I do wonder if there's any truth in it.... :)
@@sicksquid3258 It was basically the start of the loudness war and is a overproduced mess. Wonderwall has to be one of the most annoying pop songs ever shit out from the Inselaffen (as we call the brits here in Germany)
Saw 'em at a free concert on Brown's island in Richmond opening for the ocean blue in 92 or 93, even met their bassist at the airport (nice guy) ...thought they had a tight rhythm section, but never could figure out their appeal and why they got so huge a few years later.
I can’t argue with a single band/artist on this list. However, as an honorable mention, I would include Foo Fighters. Not quite a wet fart. More like an explosive shart.
I can't work out why the Foo Fighters are so popular. Just a mediocre guitarist, who is a poor singer with mundane songs. I had the misfortune of seeing them live back in June, and they lived up to my 'expectations'. They were everything live I knew they would be live in concert i.e. totally boring. I left before the end to get some chips with curry sauce as you do, and get the train home. How the hell they managed to sell out a 72,000 stadium is beyond me. Thank feck I didn't pay for my ticket. Fortunately I was on the guest list of the support band.
Completely agree Simply Red should be renamed Simply Shite and I never got the Pet Shop Boys. He's the dulkest voice known to man. Although you've missed a stand out one. I raise you a Lighthouse Family. The ultimate in beige dullness.😂
I'm a kid and I don't know much about DMB, I thought this was a joke and you meant that they a played a free concert or something. Then I looked it up on Wikipedia. That's wild, but I think the free concert would have been at least 10x worse.
I'm glad you mentioned Paul Carrack. I saw Ace open for Yes on their Close to the Edge tour in the States. His voice is very good, but not amazing. However, he is amazing. The way he can deliver a song, unpretentious yet powerful, really appeals to me. I'm amazed at how few know he did all but one Verse on "Temped" by Squeeze. We're kind of in different places, I listen to a lot of classical, fair amount of jazz and then my old stuff. Having said that, I enjoy your channel. Used to be a rock guys mainly, a prog rock guy, then veered into jazz, somewhat following Bill Bruford's pas (Have you ever mention "If Summer Had it's Ghosts" by Bruford, Ralph Towner, and Eddie Gomez on bass. It was born here in Kansas City,. U.S. ). So much I've discovered, so much I've missed...
A rant against the insipid and uninspired... But, for inflicting Sylvia's Mother on the world, Dr Hook deserve to be up there on the roll call of shame.🤮
When that song came out me and my mates used to fall about laughing if it came on the jukebox in the pub, we all thought it was a comedy song and couldn't believe it when we found out it wasn't.
Foo Fighters, me. The worst thing I do for money is play Learn To Fly at a pub, it’s just a pointless bunch of notes stuck to each other with a really dumb ending.
The first album was pretty good, with some gritty numbers. You could tell Dave still had some Nirvana juice in him, but man, they went straight off the Rock cliff and into the Pop abyss on all their other records. Just nauseating music.
I didn't know anything about Hanson, so I went and checked what you were talking about when you said "recently the brothers were found to have fairly objectionable stuff on their computer to do with more extremist politics... which their fans couldn't forgive them for." Oh, wow, I thought, after such insinuating language, did they find nazi stuff on their hard drive, or what? It turned out to be social media posts about unnecessarily severe covid lockdowns, and gun rights. Hardly "more extremist politics".
I can’t believe people take offence, I disagree with a few on this list and couldn’t give a toss who likes or dislikes what I like. My choice that’s all that matters. I personally could name a hundred bands or artists worse than some on here but who cares….
_You_ care, apparently. That's why you wrote that comment. If your choice was all that mattered to you, you wouldn't try to invalidate the other tosspot's list with your claim of basically being able to make a list that's a hundred times more acurate.
Oh I don't know about that. Personally I am wounded by the flabbergasting stupidity of people that steadfastly refuse to adore the same music as me. What the hell's the matter with them, how could they they get it all so wrong?
If one doesn't like Radiohead that's fair enough - they are an acquired taste - but what makes them great to me is their constant innovating and experimenting with new sounds and compositional styles - and this can be quite scary for more conservative listeners
Many years ago, when I was happily married, the opening of any Simply Red song on the radio would send my wife and I scurrying though the house to turn it off. They should be number one, and worryingly I agree with the whole top ten, I just may have varied the order slightly. Nice work!
I once mad a mistake to do a favor to my former girlfriend and took her to see SR live. The worst concert I ever attended. Felt like an old demented aunt's tea and biscuit party.
The Proclaimers have the same effect; if I were forced to sit and listen, that 500 miles would turn into an endless, tortured oblivion of musical misery. No need for thumbscrews, they play that record and I'm admitting to anything and everything just for it to be turned off!
For the love of god, please spell it correctly (HansOn). I don’t want anyone confusing me with them on account of my surname (which is Danish and is spelled with an e)
Agreed; Fake Plastic Trees, The Bends, Iron Lung & Street Spirit are fantastic songs but the rest are mostly just decent 90’s rock songs. But this guy obviously hasn’t delved into the Radiohead discography because OK Computer, Kid A, In Rainbows & A Moon Shape Pool are absolutely fantastic albums & they have many more great ones too!
Agreed...if a Michael Jackson song comes on the radio, I don't just change the station... I turn it off I don't want to take the chance he's playing on another station.
Limp Bizkit and their absolute mouthbreather of a 'singer' Fred Durst are the worst band ever. A band exclusively liked by bullies, jocks and spoilt brats from affluent households in the suburbs, with their back-to-front red baseball caps and oversized three quarter length shorts with massive wallet chains attached to their belts going into their pockets (presumably to make sure nobody pickpocketed the bulging wallets mummy and daddy had filled for them on the demands of their darling child). The late '90s/early '00s nu-metal years were seriously dark days.
@@guybarritt8632agree 100% - if the recent HBO and Netflix documentaries on Woodstock ‘99 taught me anything, it’s that I can’t think of a single 20th century cultural event I would less rather attend.

From an old man: 5. Bruce Springsteen - essence of New Jersey. 4. Patti Smith - horses and shit. 3. Queen - as a novelty act, better than The Chipmunks. 2. Aerosmith - 50 years and their best song is still a cover. 1. Billy Joel - the palpable contempt for his audience that was there on Day 1 shows that they deserve it.
The album is a great collection of musicians (Van Halen, Toto, McCartney, Rod Temperton) producing the absolute worst shit. The Girl is Mine is a song that makes me wish i could be deaf.
@ShadowAngel-lt8nw agree with you on The Girl Is Mine. There are only two good songs on that album : Wanna Be Starting Something and Billie Jean. The title track is nothing without its video, Beat It is just standard poodle rock and the less said about PYT (Pretty Young Thing) the better.....
Coldplay, Maroon 5, Black Eyed Peas are some that have me running for the fire exit. I’m also no fan of Neil Young despite most people singing his praises from the roof tops.
If you were around a few decades ago when MTV actually played music, you would've heard Dave Matthews every 5 minutes. Personally, I couldn't stand them.
My countdown of artists/bands i just can't stand! 10: Chicago 9: Beachboys 8: Village People 7: Creedence Clearwater Revival 6: David Bowie 5: David Guetta 4: Axwell/Ingrosso 3: Avicii 2: abba 1: Swedish House Maffia
I’m a massive Genesis fan but have to agree with you about Mike and the Mechanics. Awful music. Safe. Bland. So disappointing as Rutherfords first album Smallcreeps Day showed promise.
I have the same issue. Being a lifetime Genesis fan I find it hard to dislike M&M (while knowing I should). I can diagnose the problem, known in theories of aesthetics: too much liking of an artist (e.g. due to his other body of work) acts as a bias in evaluating his works. Mike is such a fine man, with such a fine past, that I struggle to admit the whole truth: M&M deliver some subtle chords and harmonies (indeed, more than trivial progressions of trivial chords the way Smokie did) and always good vocals, but in the end it mostly sums up to bland AOR/radio/corporate/pop good for a taxi ride.
Wind & Wuthering would be the best Genesis album for me if Mike Rutherfords song "You have your own special way" was NOT on this album. The song is a cheesy and pretentiuos love song, with same quality as later Mike and the Mechanics songs....
The Living Years has always given me cold shivers rather than warm tingles. Since I was a kid I've really not liked that song, despite it's honest subject matter.
I agree with just about all of your list but I am going to respectfully disagree about The Pet Shop Boys. I have been a fan since the beginning and they are still going strong. Here is my list of bands I cant stand 1 Guns N Roses 2 Great White 3 Bon Jovi 4 Red Hot Chili Peppers 5 Oasis 6 Green Day 7 Hootie And The Blowfish 8 The B-52s 9 Lynyrd Skynyrd 10 Imagine Dragons
10. Guns n' Roses. "Where do we go no-ow-ow-ow-ow...." to elocution lessons, mate. 9. Sigue Sigue Sputnik. Whose idea were they and have they apologised? 8. Debarge. The downward spiral of American soul music into smug, bland, overproduced musical sludge. The lead singer had nothing to look smug about. 7. S Club 7. Look, we had a good thing going with Britpop in the 1990s and they had to come along at the end and ruin everything. 6. Poison. "Every rose has a thow--ow-ow-ow-orn"...look, we've already got one American rock singer on this list who can't pronounce words properly, we don't need two. 5. The White Stripes. Even I'm a better drummer than Meg White and I'm a terrible drummer. 4. Gary Puckett and the Union Gap. I hate every song they made. Yes, she IS much too young and your love for her IS way out of line. Creepy. 3. Midnight Oil. I feel like I'm being lectured by a fresher politics student who is yelling at me through a loudhailer. 2. Racey. A symptom of the post-punk wasteland of the late 1970s and early 80s. 1. Culture Club. "War is stupid, and people are stupid"...OH PISS OFF!
Hahaha😅....spot on observation about Midnight Oil. Being bludgeoned with lefty politics and obvious platitudes ie white man guilt regarding aboriginal land rights for 40 mins makes you want to play Ted Nugent to realign your senses afterwards!😂
C'MON NOW!!!...Sigue Sigue Sputnik, while being ENTIRELY RUBBISH, they were only around for about FIVE MINUTES! There are MANY, MUCH more deserving targets of your Vitriol!
You could do a top ten bands to hate with just indie landfill bands. Razorlight, Keane, The Kooks, Stereophonics, Embrace, Kaiser Chiefs, Feeder, Snow Patrol etc. My God, what a montage of dreck.
Nickelback is a good hard rock band that have somehow become a target of critics like Grand Funk had been in the 1970’s. People vilified Grand Funk Railroad but in the 1990’s I saw Mark Farner play in a modest size venue and he played like he was at Shea Stadium with Grand Funk! Played his heart out and every fan stayed. He signed everything and could not have been more respectful to his fans that night in a small Pennsylvania town.
I am certainly biased toward Nickelback because they are from a small town near where I live. If you are looking for inventive, meaningful, lyrically driven sounds of wisdom, don't listen to Nickelback. But if you want good hard rock with a beat that you can dance to, Nickelback rules the world. Nickelhaters can kiss my ass...
Highly amusing stuff, thank you! There are a few bands that I love up to a certain point and then they turned yuk... for example Genesis... a highly original prog band up until Gabriel left and then...plastic singalong pop! Another fall from grace, imo, is Yes. An amazingly talented imaginative band that lost their way after Tormato and incidentally I do NOT recognise the later Steve Howe line up without Jon Anderson and Chris Squire, a poor Asia tribute band to my ears. One more... The Moody Blues... another wonderful band but when Mike Pinder lost interest so did I. 😊
The Genesis albums after Gabriel were pretty good, until after Duke, which was a bit more main-stream and Calling All Stations, which was a bit off. It's Steve Howe's Yes competing with Jon Anderson's Yes. I like them both. Moody Blues? You don't hear anything but their classic stuff, these days. It is what it is, I guess.

He got smacked in the head with a Woody Guthrie album. That caused him to stumble into a Bob Dylan concert and he came out thinking he was both of theirs illegitimate son. What really grates me is that no matter what he farts out, no matter how cringey, his "fans" will swear it is a masterpiece.

Is he a band? If so, yes. Number 1..I can’t stand born in the USA
Biggest waste of talent in rock history. He's got the wall of sound down perfectly but what does he do? Uses it to make his depressing lyrics even more ominous. The result: music to kill yourself by. Five good songs on The River and maybe a couple others here and there show what he's capable of if he used his talent for real rock n' roll.
One of the most overrated artists ever. His music is boring and just isn't stimulating in any way.

U2 is a band with a couple of classic records, Joshua Tree and Achtung Baby are extraordinary. If You can't stand bono i get it but those two albums are phenomenal.

I guess choosing Nickelback here is as about as sportsmanlike as fishing with dynamite
Hating Nickelback is pretty low-hanging fruit, sure, but I'd argue he's still a far more conscientious critic than most who use them as a punchline.
So True... It is getting to the stage where I have sympathy for Nickleback.
@robertlittle7314 their deep cuts are better than their bro-country ballads. But they are not a band I like to revisit.
I'm not even a fan, but I still challenge people to listen to Nickelback until a really bad song comes up and not having a night shift.
Aren't Nickelback hated mostly, because they were a "grunge sell out" kind of band ... so all the old Pearl Jam and Nirvana folks went ballistic on the a**

Everyone should hate them for the chorus of Reflex alone- that 'why aye aye aye' thing in it, absolutely appalling.
I have to take exception with you saying that Michael Jackson transformed himself into 'a post-menopausal Diana Ross' - he was clearly going more for the Liz Taylor look.
It's well known that Michael and Latoya Jackson were one and the same person. You never saw them together, they were never on tour at the same time and she does not appear in any family photos from when the boys were young. Plus, "Latoya" is very nearly an anagram of "Taylor".

True fact: Back in Virginia in the early 90s, I was the very first person to hate the Dave Matthews Band
Saw 'em at a free concert on Brown's island in Richmond opening for the ocean blue in 92 or 93, even met their bassist at the airport (nice guy) ...thought they had a tight rhythm section, but never could figure out their appeal and why they got so huge a few years later.

I can’t argue with a single band/artist on this list. However, as an honorable mention, I would include Foo Fighters. Not quite a wet fart. More like an explosive shart.
I can't work out why the Foo Fighters are so popular. Just a mediocre guitarist, who is a poor singer with mundane songs. I had the misfortune of seeing them live back in June, and they lived up to my 'expectations'. They were everything live I knew they would be live in concert i.e. totally boring. I left before the end to get some chips with curry sauce as you do, and get the train home. How the hell they managed to sell out a 72,000 stadium is beyond me. Thank feck I didn't pay for my ticket. Fortunately I was on the guest list of the support band.
"Wet Fart Explosive Shart" is the name of my Death Polka band! Are you a fan?
Completely agree Simply Red should be renamed Simply Shite and I never got the Pet Shop Boys. He's the dulkest voice known to man. Although you've missed a stand out one. I raise you a Lighthouse Family. The ultimate in beige dullness.😂

Who is Dave Matthews?!
I'm glad you mentioned Paul Carrack. I saw Ace open for Yes on their Close to the Edge tour in the States. His voice is very good, but not amazing. However, he is amazing. The way he can deliver a song, unpretentious yet powerful, really appeals to me. I'm amazed at how few know he did all but one Verse on "Temped" by Squeeze. We're kind of in different places, I listen to a lot of classical, fair amount of jazz and then my old stuff. Having said that, I enjoy your channel. Used to be a rock guys mainly, a prog rock guy, then veered into jazz, somewhat following Bill Bruford's pas (Have you ever mention "If Summer Had it's Ghosts" by Bruford, Ralph Towner, and Eddie Gomez on bass.

Limp Bizkit and their absolute mouthbreather of a 'singer' Fred Durst are the worst band ever.

Awful music. Safe. Bland.
So disappointing as Rutherfords first album Smallcreeps Day showed promise.
I thought Acting Very Strange had some great moments too, but it's overshadowed by it's atrocious cover art
Smallcreeps Day was excellent!
I have the same issue. Being a lifetime Genesis fan I find it hard to dislike M&M (while knowing I should). I can diagnose the problem, known in theories of aesthetics: too much liking of an artist (e.g. due to his other body of work) acts as a bias in evaluating his works. Mike is such a fine man, with such a fine past, that I struggle to admit the whole truth: M&M deliver some subtle chords and harmonies (indeed, more than trivial progressions of trivial chords the way Smokie did) and always good vocals, but in the end it mostly sums up to bland AOR/radio/corporate/pop good for a taxi ride.
Wind & Wuthering would be the best Genesis album for me if Mike Rutherfords song "You have your own special way" was NOT on this album. The song is a cheesy and pretentiuos love song, with same quality as later Mike and the Mechanics songs....

7. S Club 7. Look, we had a good thing going with Britpop in the 1990s and they had to come along at the end and ruin everything.
6. Poison. "Every rose has a thow--ow-ow-ow-orn"...look, we've already got one American rock singer on this list who can't pronounce words properly, we don't need two.
5. The White Stripes. Even I'm a better drummer than Meg White and I'm a terrible drummer.

C'MON NOW!!!...Sigue Sigue Sputnik, while being ENTIRELY RUBBISH, they were only around for about FIVE MINUTES!
There are MANY, MUCH more deserving targets of your Vitriol!
You could do a top ten bands to hate with just indie landfill bands. Razorlight, Keane, The Kooks, Stereophonics, Embrace, Kaiser Chiefs, Feeder, Snow Patrol etc. My God, what a montage of dreck.
I can’t believe Take That weren’t mentioned, absolutely dreadful
Poor man's New Kids On The Block.
I think their recent song "Windows" was excellent, very Crosby, Stills and Nash
Gary Kemp, who was in Spandau Ballet, is the lead singer and lead guitarist for Nick Mason's Saucerful of Secrets and is absolutely fantastic.
Interesting
Is he the brother that was on Eastenders?
@@samanthab1923No. That was Martin.
@@BigSky1 Thanks
@MichProgNerdRockonteurs is superb.
Nickelback is a good hard rock band that have somehow become a target of critics like Grand Funk had been in the 1970’s. People vilified Grand Funk Railroad but in the 1990’s I saw Mark Farner play in a modest size venue and he played like he was at Shea Stadium with Grand Funk! Played his heart out and every fan stayed. He signed everything and could not have been more respectful to his fans that night in a small Pennsylvania town.
What about Styx?
Nickelback is the sound of the human spirit giving up.
@@MykeLewisMusic That's R.E.M. and U2.
I am certainly biased toward Nickelback because they are from a small town near where I live. If you are looking for inventive, meaningful, lyrically driven sounds of wisdom, don't listen to Nickelback. But if you want good hard rock with a beat that you can dance to, Nickelback rules the world. Nickelhaters can kiss my ass...
@@kirk1147 I'm sad your parents allowed you to live.
Highly amusing stuff, thank you! There are a few bands that I love up to a certain point and then they turned yuk... for example Genesis... a highly original prog band up until Gabriel left and then...plastic singalong pop! Another fall from grace, imo, is Yes. An amazingly talented imaginative band that lost their way after Tormato and incidentally I do NOT recognise the later Steve Howe line up without Jon Anderson and Chris Squire, a poor Asia tribute band to my ears. One more... The Moody Blues... another wonderful band but when Mike Pinder lost interest so did I. 😊
The Genesis albums after Gabriel were pretty good, until after Duke, which was a bit more main-stream and Calling All Stations, which was a bit off. It's Steve Howe's Yes competing with Jon Anderson's Yes. I like them both. Moody Blues? You don't hear anything but their classic stuff, these days. It is what it is, I guess.
MB went to heck in a handbasket after the core 7.
