SUCs of other bands?

[Salome]

If you've seen R.E.M. live and you reckon Everybody Hurts and Losing My Religion (especially LMR) are meh, then there's no point in me yelling at you because you are obviously deaf.

 

[Joey788]

Arcade Fire's Windowsill is probably their SUC, with Win's preachiest and worst set of lyrics to date.

I don't care if the crowd loves Everybody Hurts, I still hate it.

#sorrynotsorry

I do still like Losing My Religion, though.

Everybody Hurts is a good song and great music video. It just got co-opted by the grief industry and overplayed when it first came out.

Yeah, I loved it when it first came out. And great video. I got tired of it really quickly, though, and it never bounced back.

 

[gareth brown]

No mentions of Wild Honey Pie yet?

No? Care to tell me why the FUCK there would be any?!

I lump in Everybody Hurts with Don't Give Up by Peter Gabriel: attempts at sad-but-uplifting music that just sound kind of boring on their exceptional respective albums.

The video was filmed in my hometown, they were building new highway but it hadn't opened yet. I was there, skipped school, but don't show up in the video. Another schoolmate of mine is actually visible in the video, he was 'vato #2' or something like that, lol

Yeah... Never quite thought of it that way but yes It's All Too Much yes could rank along side w LITSWD. Trippy, even more metaphysical.


While I don't love the song I'd take SUC over Miami any day!

yeah, wild honey pie is too short to hate on so much. i know a lot of people would go with revolution 9 but i do think it was a genuinely ambitious and ahead of its time attempt at building a song with no actual instruments.

Indeed revolution 9 it is. Somewhat bizzare given Lennon even in his most drugged up/Yoko induced "artist" late Beatles years was capable of so much better.

Also : interesting to see one of the most famous rock songs of the last 25 years get so much flack. When did we start to bash good music ?

I'm laughing at the excellent gif use, not your opinion, which I actually agree with.

My friends and family all know me as the gif guy. I have hundreds saved to my phone. Some people don't understand that it's not just a fun way of communicating, it's an art.

Perhaps you 2 should go on a gif inspired date.

Strange Currencies >>>>> Everybody Hurts

I don't get the Everybody Hurts hate though because I wasn't paying attention to mainstream radio until the late 90s. It's a decent enough song. Just like 8th or 9th best on Automatic.

I love Strange Currencies. Easily in my top 10 REM songs from the 90's.

absolutely nothing in this post makes any sense.

 

[Kieran McConville]

If Arcade Fire - per an earlier post - have a Stand Up Comedy, it's Here Comes The Night Time (not coincidentally one of Win Butler's most bonoism-laden moments).

That Windowsill song is more like their Crumbs From Your Table.

 

[Kieran McConville]

Which makes me think of a more fun game; other bands' 'Love And Peace Or Else''s.

 

[cobl04]

Consensus would say that Rococo is their SUC. I don't think they have any songs that bad. I get the pretentious argument but even at Win's worst the music is still good.

Ah yes. Where other artists try to channel their inner Bono and butcher an issue song.

I like Rococo. Does everyone hate it or something?
