    100 songs that need to go away

    Don't think this has made it here, its being discussed on 700wlw now, but I know many don't listen or are out of the market.

    Its not the 100 worst songs, just the 100 songs they've heard way too much and need to go away for a while, if not ever. Are they missing any, or list a song you can't get enough of, even after 20 years?

    Anything by Journey should be stricken from our minds forever. I'm talking mindwipe here.

    You sir should be given one million rep points. I hate them with every fiber of my being. It's like ice picks to my ears. Anything in the media that has anything to do with them is devalued (Glee, Randy Jackson being a credible judge on AI...). I always had a fantasy that the Clash beat them to death in a concert.
    Where we gonna go?

    Yeah, the revival of Don't Stop Believin' was fun......now move on.

    Loosing My Religion - REM. When that came out, I'd hear three times a day without trying.

    REM used to be one of my favorite bands. Then the string of "Losing My Religion," "Shiny Happy People," and "Everybody Hurts" completely destroyed my interest in them. I loved everything through "Green" and hate everything from "Out of Time" on. I can't think of any other band (other than ones that had a major lineup change like Van Halen) where I've gone from loving them to hating them after in the span of one album.

    I agree on so many of them. Good list.

    "Crimson and Clover" by Tommy James was played over and over and over...

    Don't forget "Ramble On".

    Love LZ but not the biggest fan of that tune.

    I once was driving up to the engineerng building at UD to meet some friends and study. As I pulled into the market lot "hey now, you're an allstar" or whatever the title of that song was, was on the radio. I didn't car for it much then, so I turned the station, only to find it on the next, then subsequently 2 other stations. On 12 presets, in the Dayton/Cincy market, it was playing on 4 of them at the same moment. I know its not on nearly as often now adays, but if I never, ever hear that song again, well that would be OK by me.

    So happy that Lee Greenwood is on the list. That song is #1 to go in my book. Just awful, and people treat it like the national anthem.

    Re: 100 songs that need to go away

    "You 'aint seen Nothing Yet" Stereotypical AOR song from the 70's. What do people hear in that song?
    “Bohemian Rhapsody” 1000 times yes....enough already.
    “Bad to the Bone” Another song like Respect that is played over and over in movies.... just in case a new generation of 12 years old have not heard it.
    Is Smashmouth the equivalent of The Kingston Trio? Every frat guy has to know recite their lyrics and dress in the same uniform?

    The problem is you have old hippies in some stations (KLOS) and a machine in others (JACK FM) out here in LA....who play the standard songs and the DJ's try to be hip by throwing out some modern stuff but like it was a Top 40 set. None of their obscure good stuff..... No "One Tree Hill" from the U2...just the usual "In the Name of Love"....and for the last time BIlly Joel is not rock and roll... "Piano Man" is not rock. Just beacuse you like Billy Joel does not mean he should be played on a classic rock station.

    That machine from JACK will sit there and throw you some Allman Bothers followed by the Clash. Yeah that fits!

    I hardly ever tune into the radio. Download Itunes and what is left of my CD collection (More than half was stolen when my car was broken into and like a dummy i left about 100 CD's in there...going back to 1988 I had these)

    I just saw that Itunes in the IK has Black Sabbath Remastered albums. tried to buy them but I was told my account only works in the US. Can you create a new account in order to download music from the UK at 0.99 pounds?...which is about $1.50 US. Not that I really like Remastered things.... as they have ruined the first Generation X album that was one of the ones stolen and I tried to download from Itunes. First we get directors bastardizing their own movies and now this.

    I still love some of those songs but they are played out.
    When I see the 2016 Reds, I see a 100 loss team and no direction.
