Eric Clapton - Blue Eyes Blue (love Clapton, but Diane Warren? - stop it, you don't need the cash.)
REM - The Monster LP, excepting "Kenneth", the rest sent them on a downhill spiral.
Rolling Stones - Brand New Car (The Stones not only wrote this nonsense, but played it twice at concerts I've seen. Why?)

Tori Amos - Me and a Gun
I know why she wrote it, and I appreciate that, but I certainly don't like listening to it, I don't think it's her best work, and I am SO tired of hearing it at every Tori concert I attend!

Anyway, I wish tori never would have done that cover of Happiness is a Warm Gun. It's one of my favorite Beatles songs, but her version really bugs me.

You're not the only one who feels this (however, I love the song, but I don't always feel like hearing it). If you went to any of the shows for Choirgirl or Venus than you wouldn't have heard it. I think it's important to her to play it so often and I think it probably means a lot to some people, especially if they have had similar experiences.

They're not my favorite, but one of them. A truly awful song.

DMB : Well, I like some of Everyday, but "I Did It" is truly dreadful and sounds like a mia culpa to boot!
Paul McCartney : Let Em In -- This is the same guy who wrote "Yesterday", right?
Billy Joel : We Didn't Start the Fire -- Dated and stupid at the same time. Also, a lesser-known song called 2000 years. A very clever music critic once wrote a review that went something like this "In the most amazing coincidence since Lou Gherig contracted Lou Gherig's disease, Billy Joel writes a song called 2000 Years, and it turns out to be the worst song written in the past 2000 years."
