Bands/musicians that everybody loves but you can't get into (1 Viewer)

You gotta admit everyone liked these at some stage:

Spice Girls
Steps
Aaron Carter (it was a girl thing I suppose)
28 Days
Ja Rule
Ashanti
Coldplay
PJ Jarvey
Powderfinger (until Vulture Street came out)
Limp Bizkit OMGODDDTHANKGODTHEYDIEDORWHATEVER
Korn
D12 (i hung around the wrong crowd)
Silverchair (when they changed their sound... sounded more mellow and thus got popular :/ )
The Dissociatives
Hilltop Hoods
James Blunt
Rihanna (that ballad she sings currently is so painstakingly bad, she's straining her voice by singing the simplest notes, you can hear it)

Still waiting for 50 cent to die.

hahahaha ive never seen a list with PJ Harvey surrounded by 'fantastic" acts such as Ja Rule, Ashanti and LIMP BIZKIT

as for the spice girls..god..the best pop band of the 90s!!

 

[bazookajoe]

Linkin Park

Worst band ever

 

[katietheskatie]

i'm pretty sure the vast majority of the population despise linkin park (and rightfully so)

too true. I'm so glad the whole heavily distorted guitar and need for a rapper and DJ sound is gone. It was so lame and generic. Hey i wonder where all those limp bizkit fans are now. PJ Harvey was one of the worst acts i've seen. Of course, Ryan Adams at splendour last year is still the worse and i don't think anything i see will top that. Silverchair were great untill Daniel Johns started with all his Paul Mac crap and went all soft and happy-like, give me a bucket. I wish they would go back to the frog stomp days. Neon Ballroon was one of the great albums, then followed up by popular crap. I hope their appearances on video hits and interviews with smash hits was worth it. As for 50 cent, well he is a true sell out. Enough said about that.

[jebbie]

Also Evanescence. What was with that?

Dont like Madonna but some of her songs are catchy I guess. But generally no.

Never liked Eminem.

I hate/d the Black Eyed Peas. I think its jsut Fergie annoys the heck out of me.

Never liked Sum 41 either, or Danni Minogue, or Holly Valance.

Don't liek the Pussycat Dolls either.

I don't like Pink and

I HATE HATE HATE Shakira!! Gross. And same for Avril Lavigne.

I'm sure there are still even more.

 

[jebbie]

Oh yeh I forgot about Toxic.

But I hate all her stuff. When she first came out I was so suprised at everyone who liked her. And I remember one fo my aunts I hardly ever see got me her album and I threw it in the bin haha.

Yeh Britney is craps.





Apart from Toxic.


and yeh I've danced to alot of her songs, but thats cos it was either

a) Dance Routine - no choice
b) School Dance - not going to stand around jsut cos I dont personally like an artist. I will dance to almost anything when I'm out.

i tried though!

 

[katietheskatie]

i like conor's lyrics, but the actual music makes me yawn

 

[RUB!X]

recently the presets and arctic monkeys, oh and anything pop

 

[Mr Lovepony]

I like conor's music but his lyrics make me cringe. I could have liked that song if it wasn't for the lyrics.

 

[Sarah168]

Madonna

Any thug/RnB/hip hop artist (though I can't resist the Promiscuous Girl song)
Elvis (am a Beatles devotee )

Rogue Traders (CANNOT STAND Natalie's voice! )

PussyCat Dolls (My God, they suck...)

Rihanna (she sounds worse than James Blunt in "Unfaithful"...both sound like dying cats but James has some good music behind it though)
