Unpopular Music Opinions

[ronniehatesjazz]

Seem to be in agreement with most on here...

I'm 35 and Duran Duran is one of my favorite bands. Some cheesy 80's songs but most were great... Save a Prayer is one of the most underrated songs of all time in my opinion... Also, love Phil Collins and Huey Lewis from that era.

Classic Rock- Despise it all! So overrated and I'll probably be shouted down for some of this but The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Led Zepplin, et cetera tops my list for the worst of all time. Seems just so whiny and/or dorky.

90's rap- Meh, but it was the preferred genre for youngsters in my youth so I'm okay with some of it.

Country- Not a huge fan but do like quite a few songs from the 80's-90's... I don't think country music exists today

Early 2000's rock- Pretty bad but listened to it non stop in high school and still like some of it. Still enjoy hearing a Chevelle or Breaking Benjamin song occasionally.

2010- Present- All Genres- Pure Garbage Haha.

Classical (Concert?) Music- Really like the impressionists like Ravel, Debussy, and Satie. Oddly enough the music goes well when looking at tobacco cards.

Speaking of The Eagles, "Try And Love Again" is their best song by far. Randy Meisner kills it!

Again, I’ll counter with The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Strokes, TV on the Radio, The National.

2010 - the best album of the 2010s came out in 2010 LCD Soundsystem’s “This Is It”. Then, a few years later, Arcade Fire came out with a very sonic sounding “Reflektor”.

One love brother, but you gotta give the hipsters credit, their music holds up.

Huey Lewis defines everything that sucked about the 80's.

Metallica became just another shitty Pop-Metal band.

Patti Smith wasn't and will never be Punk.

Bob Dylan still sucks.

[Snapolit1]

If you think Dylan sucks on vinyl, you should pay a few hundred bucks and see him live some day. Will stand with his back to the audience and sing incomprehensible through his nose for a few hours. People around you will tell you how great the last song was, but honestly you'll have no effin' clue what he's mumbling about.

Springsteen I'll never understand, YUCk!
Clapton, I can't say he's bad, I just don't like his music
Eagles, I like a lot of their music but Hotel California has got to be one of if not the most over rated album of all time.

Count me as another Duran Duran fan.

Completely respect your opinion but if you are of a certain age and grew up or lived in California in the 1960s and 1970s you might better understand the appeal of the album beyond just the tunes.

Taylor Swift and Beyonce.......I just don't get it......Radio could be so much better without either of those clowns on there.

I spent most of the 60s and 70s in Southern California, and the Eagles' "Hotel California" always sounded to me like smooth jazz for the soft rock crowd. It came out during my sophomore year in high school, and I heard it nonstop through my senior year. At the time, I was into the Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin, two other bands that are high on some other "hate 'em" lists.
