Anyone be ok if they never heard “Sweet Home Alabama” again?


Some songs, no matter how much they appealed to you at one point, just get played WAY too much. There are many worse songs that are far more annoying, but I think I’ve literally heard this song hundreds of times.

Yep...and Sweet Child o' Mine, Paradise City, Pour Some Sugar On Me and Torn by that Natalie sort from Neighbours.

I was a teenager when Sweet Home Alabama first became a hit, so I've been hearing it for a long time. It doesn't annoy me, but I have heard it way too many times. If I never hear it again, that's fine with me.

On the other hand, there is one song I positively loathe, which also gets played too much. I hate it so much that I've started writing new lyrics for it ...

"A little ditty 'bout Jack and Diane
Two American kids I don't give a rat's ass about"

That's as far as I've got, because I can't stand to think about the song at all, much less listen to it. Maybe one day I'll finish it.

Hey Jude and Stairway to Heaven

Don't forget all of Queen's most famous well-known and massively overplayed and overused hits.

I could kick Bohemian Rhapsody to the moon and forget that dirge ever existed.

Oddly enough I just had my Alexa play this epic song 10 minutes ago...I love this song, please refrain from hating me😳!

I certainly don't hate you for having a different opinion than me! Life would be boring if we all thought the same. 🤣

The unfortunate thing is that the song is also used as a sample for "Werewolves of London" by Warren Zevon and "All Summer Long" by Kid Rock. They all sound identical.

reply

WARREN ZEVON IS A TRUE ROCK LEGEND...DONT LUMP HIM IN A SENTENCE WITH KID ROCK.WHILE WEREWOLVES WAS HIS MOST COMMERCIAL SINGLE,IT IS AN AMAZING SONG,AS ARE THE REST OF HIS CATALOG...R.I.P. WARREN YOU EXCITABLE BOY.
