SUCs of other bands?

[Oregoropa]

What are some examples of other artist's songs that try too hard and have cringeworthy lyrics.

Van Halen - Mine All Mine

Sammy sings

"You've got Allah in the East, Jesus in the West. Christ! What's a man to do?!"

I actually Like Mine All Mine (but for the music much more so than Sammy's lyrics)

 

[Oregoropa]

I like it too. Play it at the gym. Doesn't suck as much as SUC.

Its no Humans Being, but one of the more rocking Hagar era VH tunes. And miles better than SUC

 

[The_acrobat]

The Rolling Stones have several songs that make SUC seem like the greatest song ever. Seriously, they're one of the great bands, but I'd say 50% of their output is garbage at best.

Maybe you should come up with a better example than Mine All Mine. I don't cringe or any bullshit like that, but In 'n' Out from FUCK gets an eye roll.

Give me a fucking break

Couldn't resist the urge? Tsk. Tsk.

Humans Being rocks. Yeah I could have come up with a better example. Mine All Mine was just on my mind just cause the lyrics get a little preachy and have a Bono-esque moment in writing.

 

[Axver]

I think Muse wrote Neutron Star Collision and Psycho for this thread.

Killers - Human

Killers - Human

I will defend that song and album to the death.

Well that wasn't very nice!

The Stones have some moments that transcend time and space, don't get me wrong. But (IMO, of course) for every "Moonlight Mile" or "Can't you hear me knockin'" there's a "Sweet Neo Con" or "Harlem Shuffle".

Dear God yes!

 

[iron yuppie]

The Who: You Better You Bet. One of the worst ever songs made by a great band.

Also Bob Dylan: Wiggle Wiggle. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he was high out of his mind when he committed that to tape.

R.E.M. - Stand

Stand in the place where you are
oooh oooh yeah

 

[Axver]

R.E.M. - Stand

Stand in the place where you are
oooh oooh yeah

I'm pretty sure Stand is actually one of the best songs, as Tony Martin proved definitively:

I preferred the time they got Norman Yem in to perform 'Losing My Religion'.

 

[prbiker15]

Psycho

Definitely, I think it's worse than SUC.

 

[cobl04]

What's so bad about You Better You Bet?

There's 15 Muse songs that could count.

I'm pretty sure Stand is actually one of the best songs, as Tony Martin proved definitively:

The only thing that makes the song bearable.

 

[Vlad n U 2]

I'm pretty sure Stand is actually one of the best songs, as Tony Martin proved definitively:

This is incredible.

 

[DaveC]

as Tony Martin proved definitively

you mean this guy no doubt.

There certainly was much worse song in Drone(s) but can't remember. Dead Inside? Could be

 

[nbelcik]

Its no Humans Being

Easily the most underrated Van Halen song, I pretty much exclusively listen to David Lee Roth era Van Halen, but goddamn that song is amazing.

Every band has their fair share of clunkers... but to say that 50% of the Stones output is garbage is just silly

Springsteen - Queen of the Super Market

 

[nielsgov]

No mentions of Wild Honey Pie yet?

Its the best Hagar era song by a far, nothing else even a contender.

i think it's too short to count.

maxwell's silver hammer or run for your life are better candidates for the beatles.
