Another thread with a title that doesn't really make sense. It should just be titled music you don't like. There are people who love basically any music you ever heard.

I won't bother making a list seeing how I can't about 90% of music I have ever heard.

Sir Mick Jagger solo work. An unlistenable stinking pile of garbage. Keith Richards summed it up best when he wrote "it was like Mein Kamph, everyone had a copy, nobody played it".

This thread needs a little Gazza going gonzo on Bon Jovi...!

I can't listen to the Police or anything Sting sings on. Stevie Nicks' whiney, nasal monotone is wildly annoying. And I just don't get Bon Jovi. (Gazza would have made that sentiment much more entertaining.)

UGGHHH.........

Queen

Journey

Toto

Whitney Houston

Peter Gabriel

Led Zep --AFTER Led Zep I & II.... those were brilliant, but I just couldn't take Plants voice on anything after that-- maybe Stairway, but his vocals and embarrassing lyrics made me cringe the rest of the way.......

Sting

Jefferson Starship

Elton John

I really couldn`t get Peter Gabriel`s "Sledgehammer" back in 1986. That was way beyond me. As if people couldn`t see through that. It was only a groove. Overstated.

What do you mean Get? You mean you didn't like it,

Did anyone ever say it was more then just a groove? I think people just liked that groove.

I didn`t like it, as this thread suggests. It was a blues groove. I expect more than a groove.

I think as much as anything it was the video that sold it.

Van Halen by a mile, never for the life of me could understand their popularity.

I won't touch this. I've always said to people who state "this band sucks" that they don't suck, you just don't get it. Usually that person only likes one genre and a handful of bands. Sad when there's so much good music to listen to.

Radiohead has had me puzzled...

it comes from listening to spirit of the radio too much

Not the karma police?

i think you may have that confused with the dream police that live inside of my head.

If there is one song that comes on, I fear I'll have a seizure if I keep listening....Love Shack by the B52s. Actually, all those wedding band dance songs rank on this list.

Although true, there's no doubt so much bad music as well.

Dude! London Calling, one of the best albums ever! And what about tracks like Police & Thieves & the brilliant Pressure Drop cover!

And as much as I don't go for most of '80s music, The Cars were always a band I liked. Very catchy songs, often with a tad of humor, and some pretty cool videos! I've never seen them live, I'll have to correct that. Most probably aren't aware, The Cars actually had a release with Todd Rundgren singing (I can't remember if it was a full album or more likely a couple of new songs on a compilation).
