I am not keen on Bohemian Rhapsody particularly, but I was around when it was released, and always thought it was supposed to be ironic and overblown from the start, I have never believed that Queen thought it was in any way serious music, but made at the time for pub/karaoke singers and air guitarists.
It is easy to hate for being an exploitative money spinner, but less easy to hate because Queen were trying to present it as great music, which it isn't, and they weren't.1 -
You Can Call Me Al.1

In the Middle Of The Night - Billy Joel0

Id never heard of it to be honest until the end of SopranosZaki said:Don't Stop Believin' - Journey.
I've never been able to understand why so many people seem to like it.
For that reason its in my fav songs playlist as it was the best programme id ever watched.
To be honest there are loads of songs in this thread in my Fav songs playlist, but its normally from memories at that point in my life rather than the actual song.0 -

The Fugees. Especially Killing me softly. Load of clap trap.
Amy Winehouse made my ears bleed.
Rod Stewart. Rubbish. Absolutely bloody awful in fact.

Nothing has me scrambling for the emergency off button faster than when "You're gorgeous" by Babybird comes on the radio.
Probably not a great... but seems popular.
That and Louis Armstrong with "We have all the time in the world".
And a few others have already been mentioned, like brown eyed girl and American pie0 -
Agree, compare anything that Jay-z or Kanye have done compared to Evidence of Dilated Peoples, Tech Nine, Phonte, some of Nas, Big K.R.I.T.cafctom said:I don't understand it when some people claim that the likes of Jay Z or Kanye West are 'geniuses'. And they do it in a way as if to say 'ah because you're not on the right wavelength to grasp what they're doing, that's why you don't see it'
I've never got the 'greatness' around those two, not one bit. And I don't hate rap music.
Big K.R.I.T - "The Vent" to me is the song I would use to introduce someone to the other side of hip hop. pure class

I'm not sure if I agree about Presley influencing James Brown. They liked each other a great deal, and Brown attended Presley's funeral. I can't hear the Presley influence on Brown. I can hear Brown's influence on Presley during Brown's funk era, just as you could hear the influence of the Stax sound on Presley (Presley would record at Stax, but bring his own entourage; the only Stax musician he used was the great Eddie Hinton on guitar). James Brown would be my Mastermind specialist subject, by the way.DA9 said:
God yeah, he only inspired John Lennon, James Brown, Bruce Springsteen, Paul McCartney, and countless others.25May98 said:Almost all Elvis. Just sounds like a comedy singing voice. Any voice that can be impersonated down the pub after a few is a shit singing voice.
You've lost that loving feeling. God awful song. Don't know (or care) who wrote or sang this but pure shite.
Agree with Bohemian Rhapsody. Massively over rated.
For the record (excuse the pun) It was Phil Spector

I prefer the Tom Waits version. (Add one of those smiley face things.)SuedeAdidas said:
Agree generally........but Earth Dies Screaming is a tune!Macronate said:Anything by UB40.
Whining, nasal, Brummie bollocks.

Run for the hills Ali, don't bloody sing about it.0 -
ALL Rod Stewart? OK, post 77 there was a lot of rubbish but the Faces and his early sole stuff is great.JohnBoyUK said:The Fugees. Especially Killing me softly. Load of clap trap.
Amy Winehouse made my ears bleed.
Rod Stewart. Rubbish. Absolutely bloody awful in fact.
Love Amy and Fugees are good too IMHO but Rod? Right up there with Van as best British male soul voice0 -

You know that Adele that you've got nowadays? Sounds like shouting to me. When she sings, it's shouting. You know that heartfelt soulful cresendo? Shouting.1

And his whole celtic thing as well. Your music's shit, p*** off, and I don't care that you've got a football pitch in your back garden. Can't stand his music1 -
Anything by The Boom Town Rats
Bob Geldoff done alright out of it though amassing a 150 million fortune out of it though0 -
But does anybody actually call this great? Popular, which it was at one time, is not the same as great.SuperCliveMendonca said:Macarena

Re Rod, I have to agree. An old raincoat... and Every picture... are two excellent albums. He had a great blues voice at the time.Henry Irving said:
