My girls played "What does the fox say" just because they knew it made my ears bleed.

We have a band in Finland called TCT and they have a song named On The Beach (Finnish version of course) I've heard that song the
whole summer, now I am sick and tired of it.

Weird Al's parody song is so good that anytime I hear Nirvana's version I find myself substituting the Weird Al lyrics.

Yeah, Weird Al is great. It's been a long time since I heard his parody version but I remember laughing my a$$ off.
Gotta keep some rap! Represent with some Beastie Boys, Run-DMC and Ice T!!
The early 80s weren't bad at all for music. I kind of liked some of the synthesiser-based pop of that time. Depeche Mode, Human League, Gary Numan and David Bowie knocked out some good stuff during the early 80s. We had The Thompson Twins and Howard Jones as well. U2 were still a decent band then... and where would we have been without Dexy's and Come On Eileen?!
I don't even know who performs this song but I'm sick of it - I hear it way too often and once you've heard it, it stays with you the rest of the day
C'mon Eileen
How dare you!!
This is one of my guilty pleasures. That, and early Madonna.
I'll throw in two awful covers. No, three. Metallica's redo of Bog Seger's "Turn the Page," and Kenny Rogers' redo of Seger's "We've Got Tonight." Both of them took an earthy, heartful, growly theme and turned it into a screechfest (Metallica) or a vanilla croon (Rogers). The third one is Faith Hill's redo of Janis Joplin's "Heartbreaker." My kids love all kinds of music, including rap and country (go figure), and they couldn't stand that lilty version of a carnal, raw classic. They thought it was outright sacrilege.
Aerosmith's Come Together cover.

The Scorpions playing with the Berlin Philharmonic is one of my very favorite collections. And their "Wind of Change" was just achingly evocative, given what was going on at the time.
Thoroughly enjoyed U2.
Aw nah, I like Metallica's cover of Turn the Page. (I like them both, actually)
...did you mean Faith's version of "Piece of My Heart"?....and regardless she looked good doing the opening for Sunday Night Football...
Apparently, when I first wrote that post, I had both song titles wrong. The Seger one bothered me, so I looked it up and corrected it. But the other one didn't bother me, so I didn't. Amd I was wrong. Yes, sir, I meant "Piece of My Heart."
I'm sure Ms. Hill looks great, is a wonderful entertainer, wife, and mother. There are undoubtedly fan clubs and churches built in veneration of her (and Bobby Sheman)(and Neal Diamond), and rightly so. But that song, that version? Ummmm..........
...you and I agree, I felt it was sacrilege that she tried to cover JJ's original....she just doesn't have that whiskey smooth, cigarette rough wail of pain voice...
There's a Chipmunks song that gets overplayed every December that makes me run from the room screaming.
Forgettable after first hearing...
I'll be a happy camper if I don't hear "Stayin' Alive" again...these cops who visited here from other places, winter...they did a great parody of that song...in snowshoes, fur caps, plaid jackets...and Red Ryder BB guns.
