    I am sure all of you have a favorite band or singer or whatever. Ever heard a song from them and you didn't like it? Name that song.

    I have a big Heart for Damon Albarn who was the lead singer of Blur and also the creator/voice of 2-D for the Gorillaz. Which is my favorite band by the way.

    Being a big Gorillaz fan I love every album and just about every song. Particuarly their first album Gorillaz and Gorillaz D-sides. Although Demon Days and G-sides were great too! Then Plastic Beach came out and nevertheless was a huge dissapointment. The only songs I can get into are Stylo, Broken, and Electric Shock. Although Electric shock never made the cut into the Album.

    There were just too many collaborations. The only feature that I was looking forward to was Lou Reed's, but I didn't care for it much in the end. ANYWAYS, a few songs I don't like are On Melancholy Hill, Sweepstakes, To Binge, etc.

    Linkin Park's New Divide. Too What I've Done - a sequel to a song to go with the sequel to the film the first one was in. Also The Catalyst jusy isn't doing it for me at this point.

    I like Linkin Park, but a song I don't like from them is Shadow of the Day. It's rather slow for my tastes.

    Speechless by Lady Gaga.
    It's a pretty powerful song when you hear from Gaga what it's really about, but it was the only song I've heard from her that didn't totally WOW me and blow me away. Obviously not my kind of song.

    Regardless it's still powerful and I can appreciate the though tshe put into it.

    Pretty much everything that isn't My Body is a Cage on The Arcade Fire's second album, Funeral. It's much too dark for me to properly enjoy it. Maybe I'll have a listen to it when I'm in a more depressed state of mind.

    If You Think There's Something by Madness. Although I do like the song, the only real part I don't like is that it is too... repetitive. A bit too much of one line, with hardly any change of melody, pitch or anything (as in, possible part copied and pasted again and again) makes me think it is too repetitive.

    I just heard some songs from David Bowie's very first album and they are awful. It might not be fair to judge someone by their first attempts, but I have to share this anyway.

    It's called The Laughing Gnome. I don't know how Bowie ever survived his album to become what he did.

    I was quite fond of Shadow of the Day, myself. I liked it because it was a bit more ballady. Still quite emo, though.

    And Scarf, that Laughing Gnome song is freaking hilarious. It's scarily addictive and I could actually see myself buying that.

    These songs are alright don't get me wrong, but they didn't stand out like all of his others. And they are "Dirty Diana" and "Give It To Me" by Michael Jackson. He was trying to be Rock and he really isn't. I like him singing R&B and Pop. But I know he tries to do another genre, but to me these two songs didn't get my attention like his other great songs.

    I'm a huuuuuge Green Day fan, I love, love, love, love them. But I only like a small handful of songs from their first two CD's. They're just... not as good as their other CD's. :/ I'd say from both CD's which added together have 35 songs, I only REALLY like about 6 of the songs. XD

    Really? Personally, I love "Shadow of the Day." Even with its slow tempo, the song fits Linkin Park perfectly well. They tried a new approach to a song of theirs, and it pulled off. It's even one of my favorite Linkin Park songs.

    I really like Lil' Wayne. Some of his verses are just so hilarious to listen to. However, sometimes he tries to outdo himself, which ruins the whole song. At other times, he just doesn't make sense.

    Favourite band would be Rammstein. Song, then... Seemann, it's fairly long and mostly awkwardly quiet then awkwardly loud then... yeah. Klavier is similar. I find it very harsh playing, and although I think that's the point of it, I still don't like it.

    It's a shame that I can say Sonic Youth has any bad songs at all, because they're such a great band, but some of the lyrics in Renegade Princess and Nevermind (What Was It Anyway) are really bad and actually ruin the entire song.

    That and a few of the songs off The Beatles' White Album are cringe-worthy.

    "Why Don't We Do It in the Road?" right?

    Favourite band: The Mars Volta, have no songs I dislike, thankfully.
    A few of my other favourites have some bad ones, actually entire albums that are bad.
    Most of The Final Cut by Pink Floyd is not very good, imo.
    Squeeze by The Velvet Underground is terrible, I don't even know how they can call themselves TVU without Lou Reed or John Cale so fake TVU probably doesn't count.
    Mythmaker by Skinny Puppy is absolutely awful, I don't know how they managed to go from being so good to being so bad.
