Unpopular Music Opinions

[Mutagen]

I own a "Best of Culture Club" CD, and I like it.

"Jane" by Jefferson Starship is one of my favorite songs.

I really dig some of the songs by the new Misfits. Not better than the real Misfits, but liking a Danzig-less Misfits is a big step. I'm still not down with the pro-wrestling, though.

I also think U2 is severely overrated, although apparently that's not such an unpopular opinion anymore.

I also hate Aerosmith, and I mostly find Eric Clapton boring (intellectually I know he's great, but like 95% of his output puts me to sleep). Also, Carlos Santana. I just dislike long meandering guitar solos that aren't titled "Maggotbrain."

Me three. And the two disc VH1 Storytellers CD. Long live Boy George.

I like Coldplay's newest album. I don't analyze the lyrics or anything; it's just good music to put on while I'm driving around.

While I fully acknowledge that Billy Corgan can be all kinds of annoying, The Smashing Pumpkins will always be my favorite band evah!

Must just be the philistines people I know, then!

ITA about the Smashing Pumpkins, I just broke out Siamese Dream the other day after letting it rest for several years. Still a quality album.

I love, love, love country music including Toby Keith AND the Dixie Chicks (in my little corner of the galaxy, that last part is enough to get you hung), and I love listening to Barbra Streisand, Barry Manilow and Bread.

Are you kidding? I used to work in a candy store, where I would play that album ALL THE TIME and call it "Boy George Appreciation Day".

Topic: I am almost completely uninterested in U2 at this point. Bono should unleash his plans for world domination or just shut the hell up.

Sheryl Crow is way overrated. Her music after Tuesday Night Music Club is so bland that I don't see how she gets so much airplay, and I don't see why some people still think she's "edgy" (quotes, because I hate the word "edgy").

I'm right there with you tinyshoes. I've hated every song she's ever released. Some of them I've learned to tolerate, but I never really enjoy them. However that craptacular "If it MAKES you HAPPY!" can rot in hell right now.

I shrieked with joy when I saw that Barbra Streisand and Barry Gibb are teaming up for their second album. LilB was sitting on my lap and staring at me with wonder- I don't think he had seen Borokat ever that happy in his one year.

THEY ARE?!?

Oh yeah! And hon, they -- not to mention you and I -- got nuthin' to feel guilty of... our love will climb any mountain!
