I love this band usually but their biggest single is really annoying

You know how it is: a band spends years building up a following and releasing classic records. All of a sudden they release a jokey cod-rave drug song, a jaunty knees-up number about a national coach company or an overblown power-ballad available for subsequent murder at talent contests throughout the land and have their biggest hit yet. In case you didn't guess, I'm talking about:

The Shamen - Ebeneezer Goode
Divine Comedy - National Express
The Bangles - Eternal Flame

Prodigy - assuming 'Firestarter' is their biggest single (i did used to like it tho)

― stevem (blueski), Thursday, 24 April 2003 13:57 (twenty-two years ago)

and Daft Punk, with 'One More Time' being their biggest selling single (black-hearted heathen? moi?)

Ha ha, yes, "Time of the Season" is pretty annoying.

Suede and Pulp are so Godly that it's a shame that, although these are AWESOME songs, they are best known for Beautful Ones/ Trash (Suede) and Common People/ Disco 2000 (Pulp) instead of The Wild Ones/ Still Life (Suede) and The Fear/ Sunrise (Pulp)

But that's their best song...

― David Allen, Thursday, 24 April 2003 18:22 (twenty-two years ago)

goddamn! I love all these big hits! Except "Evenflow" which definitely isn't Pearl Jam's biggest song. If it's "Alive" than I agree they should be on here. If it's "Jeremy" or "Black" (even though "Black" wasn't a single it gets played on the radio a lot and won SPIN'S best song ever in a reader's poll in '93) then I like that one too. "Losing My Religion" and "Creep" I only despise in their live context. But the original recordings are great.

I'm going to try and think of somebody I like who I hate their biggest hit, but I don't think there is any.

― Carat Semen Urn, Thursday, 24 April 2003 18:31 (twenty-two years ago)

I think it's funny that you suggested "It's Oh So Quiet", which Bjork actually didn't write (it's a Gershwin tune).

I suggested "Evenflow" cuz it gets played on the radio in this area more than any other (much better) Pearl Jam song. For a brief moment in like 95 or 96 or something they played "Who You Are" on the radio; I LOVED THAT.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Thursday, 24 April 2003 18:33 (twenty-two years ago)

Mauro Picotto, known for his hard, pounding, minimalist techno DJ sets, suddeny has a hit with a rediculously cheesy trance mix of Komodo (well OK he did Cappella too but that wasn't under his real name).

― Siegbran (eofor), Thursday, 24 April 2003 18:38 (twenty-two years ago)

I missed the bjork one. Yeah, if that's her biggest hit (it may well be, though "Human Behaviour" got more MTV play in the U.S.) I am NOT happy about that.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Thursday, 24 April 2003 18:43 (twenty-two years ago)

I don't know if I'd quite call it "really annoying" (although its certainly become annoying over time) but "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen.

Simillarly "Stairway to Heaven" (not that it was ever a "single") by Led Zeppelin.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Thursday, 24 April 2003 19:09 (twenty-two years ago)

"Legal Man".

Not that I actually luv belle and sebastian to death that much, but I remember the magnificent outrage over this thing.

― Sterling Clover (s_clover), Thursday, 24 April 2003 19:12 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm 1,000,000% with Alex in "Stairway". Sure, Zep did big-and-bloated really well (although I think "Kashmir" tops "Stairway" in EVERY way imaginable), but I think what they were best at was straight-up-and-dirty raw nasty shit. "Four Sticks" fr'instance...YOW!

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Thursday, 24 April 2003 19:14 (twenty-two years ago)

"Stairway" actually makes me want to kill myself nowadays. I got in this huge fight with my dad once about it. I told him it was a terrible song and he should learn to play something else on the guitar, he told me I was a dumbass bitch who didn't know music from shit (his words). I think I ended up telling him to shove his guitar up his ass or something. That was like the only song he knew how to play for years! I hate that song! Oh my god. The teenage angst is boiling up in me all over again. I mean, how hard is it to learn another song? Obviously not that hard, because he eventually did. But 20 years of only knowing how to play the slow part of "Stairway"! Jesus.

"Kashmir" is 10000000000% a better song than "Stairway". I can't even be rational about that song.

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 24 April 2003 19:20 (twenty-two years ago)

Teach your dad "We're a Happy Family" by the Ramones.

― hstencil, Thursday, 24 April 2003 19:23 (twenty-two years ago)

You aren't fucking kidding me. Actually, he started learning some Clash songs which pleased me when I was 15. Last time I was back there, he was playing fucking "Stairway" again, so I guess his ambition died.

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 24 April 2003 19:27 (twenty-two years ago)

Still, that was nothing compared to the massive three-week-long Dan Marino fight, if not for the fact that it brought us the deathless nickname "Tan Marino". That's not a story for this thread though.

"Party Hard" is not the best song on Andrew WK's album by a mile.

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 24 April 2003 19:28 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh, stop being so fucking precious, most of you. Particularly Calum - yeah, the 'should be remembered' songs you mentioned ARE great, but .. to say that 'Trash' and 'Beautiful Ones' are annoying ! And 'Common People' !

What most of you really mean is that you can't bear how the group you like has a song or two that the average Joe knows well. So fucking what. It's not that hard to avoid, is it ? I too loathe the idea of , f/ex, Jarvis' lyrical tour de force being wholly inappropriately belted out by the kind of people that would just as likely thumo him, me, you and all the other, ahem, misshapes, but.. so bloody what ! Just don't go to that 90s retro night or grubby karaoke evening then !

― darren (darren), Thursday, 24 April 2003 19:47 (twenty-two years ago)

"Common People" is like so much better than "Sunrise" that it's not even funny.

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 24 April 2003 19:49 (twenty-two years ago)

no, darren, it's that "Stand" really really really sucks.

― hstencil, Thursday, 24 April 2003 19:53 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah, at least "Shiny Happy People" has Kate Pierson on it as a Stipe-buffer.

― H (Heruy), Thursday, 24 April 2003 20:02 (twenty-two years ago)

Big singles almost invariably become albatrosses after while. While I adore the song, if Killing Joke decided to leave "Love Like Blood" (their most successful single to date) out of their live repetoire, I wouldn't weep. Likewise U2,.....if they retired "With or Without You" from their live set, I think they'd be doing both themselves and the song in question a favour (as they seem to cheapen the track every time they play it now). Also, no one --- and I mean NO ONE -- ever needs to hear "Pride (In the Name of Love)" again.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Thursday, 24 April 2003 20:06 (twenty-two years ago)

XTC

You don't like "Senses Working Overtime"?

― Geir Hongro (GeirHong), Thursday, 24 April 2003 20:07 (twenty-two years ago)

Shame on those who mentioned Boo Radleys and Blur. "Wake Up" and "Country House" are both among the best 10 singles released druing the 90s, and they sound exactly like all pop music should sound!

― Geir Hongro (GeirHong), Thursday, 24 April 2003 20:09 (twenty-two years ago)

Which is their biggest single (XTC) do ya think: "Senses Working Overtime" or "Dear God"?

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Thursday, 24 April 2003 20:10 (twenty-two years ago)

"Dear God," if only for the kid-holding-class-hostage incident.

― hstencil, Thursday, 24 April 2003 20:12 (twenty-two years ago)

"Dear God" in the US and "Senses Working Overtime" in the UK, I would say.

― Geir Hongro (GeirHong), Thursday, 24 April 2003 20:15 (twenty-two years ago)

― christoff (christoff), Thursday, 24 April 2003 20:22 (twenty-two years ago)

I truly can't stand "Another Brick in the Wall, Pt. 2."

Stairway rocks and Kashmir is a worthless shitstain of a song.

― My name is Kenny (My name is Kenny), Thursday, 24 April 2003 20:36 (twenty-two years ago)

I guess the problem with big singles is that, for the hardcore fan, it gets annoying to go to a gig and see like X amount of people singing along with the song in question and then nattering off the rest of the time. I personally wouldn't mind hearing the big hits (if they are good songs which honestly they generally are), but then you have the whole thing of wanting to hear all the OTHER songs too, and not really enjoying them because you got a bunch of other people who only want to hear "Wonderwall" or something.

Ahem.

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 24 April 2003 20:40 (twenty-two years ago)

Kashmir is a worthless shitstain of a song.

Far and away the most RIDICULOUS assertion I've ever read on ILM.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Thursday, 24 April 2003 20:44 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh, come on, you're exagerrating. He's clearly wrong, but ILM is home to someone who thinks James Brown is worthless, someone who thinks R. Kelly was in the right for pissing on a 14 year old, and someone who thinks "Sunrise" is a better song than "Common People"!

Re: XTC.. I actually meant "Mayor of Simpleton"! But I guess "Dear God" would qualify. ("Senses..", while certainly overrated IMHO, is not what I'd call really annoying at all)

― donut bitch (donut), Friday, 25 April 2003 01:34 (twenty-two years ago)

Has anyone heard Mandy Moore's cover of "Senses Working Overtime"? I shudder at the very concept and fear my skull would explode if I was exposed to it.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 25 April 2003 01:39 (twenty-two years ago)

It can't be any worse than Spacehog's version on the tribute CD.

I never said these songs by Pulp or Suede were annoying. And Sunrise has grown on me so bad since it came out and yes I like it better than Common People. My two fave Pulp albums are This is Hardcore and We Love Life.

― Calum, Friday, 25 April 2003 10:33 (twenty-two years ago)

How interesting.

I totally forgot about "Rock the Casbah". I don't actually find it particularly annoying all the time, like if I'm totally obliterated drunk, it's not annoying, but only then. Why do all 45-year-old moms like this song? Is "Rock the Casbah" a secret soccer mom code?

― Ally (mlescaut), Friday, 25 April 2003 12:37 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm also a bit befuddled why the Clash are always associated with "I Fought the Law".....I mean, sure, it's a fine song and all, but it's not like they wrote it (and they wrote plenty of fine ones of their own, so to identify them so often with this track seems like a bit of a disservice to them, no?)

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 25 April 2003 16:58 (twenty-two years ago)

Shame on those who mentioned Boo Radleys and Blur. "Wake Up" and "Country House" are both among the best 10 singles released druing the 90s, and they sound exactly like all pop music should sound!

This, I realise. I like both these songs, but it is very SHIT when some twat reckons you're a bit funny because you like these bands because he's only heard those songs.

― dog latin (dog latin), Friday, 25 April 2003 17:37 (twenty-two years ago)

Agreed about "I Fought The Law", though I guess it never occured to me how much they are associated with it. It's a great song, so maybe that's why it never occured to me, unlike "Rock the Casbah" which I find vaguely torturous, generally speaking.

Oddly, everyone I've ever discussed this with who was from Massachusetts would then tell me that "Lost in the Supermarket" was their favorite Clash tune. Is there anyone reading from Mass. who'd like to dispute my theory that everyone up there is in love with "Lost in the Supermarket"? In my head, it's become the state's anthem.

Has anyone mentioned the Ramones? Besides hstencil's recommendation to my dad, I mean. Because I can't even listen to "I Wanna Be Sedated" anymore, since it was on so many high school "cool mixtapes" created by my friends. Like, 80% of their other tunes are better. I'm listening to "Judy is a Punk" right now, and it's so much better than "I Wanna Be Sedated" that it really makes me want to cry that everyone put "Sedated" on their goddamned mix tapes.

― Ally (mlescaut), Friday, 25 April 2003 17:52 (twenty-two years ago)

"Lost in the Supermarket" = my least favorite, most-despised Clash tune.

"I Wanna Be Sedated" is a classic example of this thread! SOOOOOOOOOOOOO many superior songs to this, yet it is still their "signature" to many folks. Tragic.

On a simillar bent, while "Heart of Glass" is indeed a great track, it's not wildly indicative of Blondie's strengths.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 25 April 2003 18:39 (twenty-two years ago)

"Brick" by Ben Folds Five owns this thread so much it could put it on ebay.

Marmalade.

― the night has a 1000 ayes, Friday, 25 April 2003 18:46 (twenty-two years ago)

Ben Folds Five - "Brick"...FOR REAL. Fun-but-sincere band of instrumental/vocal prodigies who wrote some amazing Carole-King-meets-Queen big-bombastic-yet-sentimental-as-fuck songs, and of all of them, THIS last-song-I'd-choose gets the recognition! No love for "One Angry Dwarf", no love for "Underground", no love for "Song for the Dumped" (okay, maybe just a little love for that one).

Ween - "Push th' Little Daisies"...FOR REAL. Although it's hard to say it's not typical of their material, in that there really isn't anything particularly "typical" that runs across all their songs. Even their sense of humor isn't omnipresent in their work ("Sarah" or "She's My Baby" fr'instance). I like how over-the-top this song is (in a very similar way to the way I love ODB's "I Can't Wait"), but it's definitely among their most skippable tracks on any disk they've ever released.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Friday, 25 April 2003 18:57 (twenty-two years ago)

Hey, I said "Brick" in the 3rd post! Credit where credit is due, people!

Anyway, "Lost in the Supermarket" was my favorite Clash song back when I didn't really get the Clash. I'd listen to London Calling and think they all sounded like boring pub-rock sing-a-longs. But then "Supermarket" had a bit of disco in it, so it was better. ... All right, so I still kinda feel this way. But I know I'm wrong!

― jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 25 April 2003 18:58 (twenty-two years ago)

"Lost in the Supermarket" = my least favorite, most-despised Clash tune.

Interesting, expand on this topic please. It's far from my favorite, but it's also not anywhere near my least favorite. It's a nice enough song but not really "Clash" if you get my drift??? I'm not 100% sure what I'm trying to say, though I reckon jaymc's post is basically the direct opposite of what I just said.

"Heart of Glass" is a terrific song for the lyrics alone, but you're right--I know an inordinant amount of people who think of Blondie as a disco act simply because they're familiar with this and "Call Me" (which is kind of rocky anyway), and either dismiss/approve of the band on that basis. Some of these people also refer to Deborah Harry as Blondie, so take as you will.

― Ally (mlescaut), Friday, 25 April 2003 19:19 (twenty-two years ago)

You're right, Ally, it's not really "Clash." So that's why I like it, I guess. Cuz I freely admit I don't get the Clash. And maybe that's why Alex hates it -- cuz he TOTALLY gets the Clash and it's not Clash enough for him. But then again, if that was my POV, I'd hate "Rock the Casbah" more. So, Ally, you win.

― jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 25 April 2003 19:37 (twenty-two years ago)

Now I'm confused. What if you are ambivalent towards the Clash? Then what song do you like? "Should I Stay Or Should I Go"?

My mom was pretty convinced that "My Sharona", by the way, was a Clash song, for like 15 years.

― Ally (mlescaut), Friday, 25 April 2003 19:47 (twenty-two years ago)

Actually, the Ramones sig. song is Blitzkreig Bop, by far. That's also their most annoying song.

I thought Elvis Costello's biggest hit was Veronica. That's my favorite song of his.

― David Allen, Friday, 25 April 2003 20:31 (twenty-two years ago)

Interesting, expand on this topic please.

Alright, then. I prefer my Clash to be righteous, blistering, indignant and incendiary, not maudlin, self-effacing, weepy and mundane.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 25 April 2003 20:34 (twenty-two years ago)

Actually, the Ramones sig. song is Blitzkreig Bop, by far.

According to who???

Alex, I agree with you, it's like they went out to dinner with Morrissey or something, but I wouldn't go so far as to say it's a terrible song.

― Ally (mlescaut), Friday, 25 April 2003 20:35 (twenty-two years ago)

I would. If someone else wrote it, it'd be fine.....but coming from the Clash made it an extra affront for me.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 25 April 2003 20:39 (twenty-two years ago)

I can't believe it. I STILL like every song mentioned. Except for the Boo Radleys, whom I've never heard.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Friday, 25 April 2003 20:40 (twenty-two years ago)

See, that's my problem with the song, I reckon. It's just not really a Clash song. And yeah, that gets me in trouble when I say shit like that, because I get lectured by people around here about evolution and blah blah blah blah blah but if yr evolution is into wussbags then I can't be expected to be falling over happy about it. That being said, I still don't really mind the song (but admittedly that is more because when I was 14 I found out it was Richey Edwards's favorite song and decided in a weird delusional period that by forcing myself to listen to it like 800 times, he'd suddenly like me, despite not having met me. This is way too much info).

So, anyway, "The Locomotion" is Kylie Minogue's worst song.

― Ally (mlescaut), Friday, 25 April 2003 20:44 (twenty-two years ago)

Wait a sec, y'all think that the narrative voice in "Lost in the Supermarket" isn't from an ironic position?

― hstencil, Friday, 25 April 2003 20:46 (twenty-two years ago)

Even the execution of "Lost in the Supermarket" bugs me.....the guitars just sound anaemic and limp. Everything about it just waddles along as if having just birthed a massive, unweildly dump in its trousers.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 25 April 2003 20:47 (twenty-two years ago)

IRONY! I never would've thought of that, oh shit!

hstencil, I hate irony. Please don't use that word around me. I only like the obvious.

Alex, that post enters into the realm of "Things that I laugh too hard at to respond to." Your imagination never fails to amaze and somehow also repulse, that's great.

― Ally (mlescaut), Friday, 25 April 2003 20:51 (twenty-two years ago)

Dudes, "Lost in the Supermarket" is a ex pre facto 2000s-Gang-of-Four-clones parody. The fucking Clash were cool enough to be making fun of 2003 indie kids back in 1979. Awesome.

Oh, speaking of Gang of Four, can I just say "I Love A Man In A Uniform"? And for once, that's not just a statement of sartorial preference.

― Ally (mlescaut), Friday, 25 April 2003 21:16 (twenty-two years ago)

"Lost in the Supermarket" is a ex pre facto 2000s-Gang-of-Four-clones parody

Hmmmm....not so fast there, Stence my lad. I believe I read somewhere that "Lost in the Supermarket" was simply a simple song Joe wrote for Mick, not some middle-fingered tweak on the Gang's expense.

Moreover, it sounds NOTHING like Gang of Four.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 25 April 2003 21:19 (twenty-two years ago)

No, he was trying to infer that the Clash were taking part in time travel to visit the Gang of Four clones (??) and thus was trying to bait me into going into fits about the time-space continuum violations contained in Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure yet again, but I saw through it and instead pointed out how annoying "I Love A Man In A Uniform" is.

I wouldn't. "Lost In The Supermarket" is great (though admittedly the sound is a little wimpy IF you're desperate for the rawk - I take the song as '80s pop personally). I even like the Afghan Whigs version.
