I think Cool Off is one of those records that doesn't make a lot of sense when you play it at home, but blasted out loud, at Wigan it sounded out of this world, absolutely brilliant North

Are we talking classics?

Holly St James - That's not love

Dee Clarke - That's my girl

Derek and Ray - Interplay

Not just 3 bobbins classics from way back that don't really get played anymore, but 3 classics that strangely still do the business at oldies nights :g:

So many, but here's 3 that spring to mind and for different reasons bring out the self-righteous and opinionated in me:

(1) Charles Sheffield - Voodoo Working (a decent enough record for a few plays back in the day - after that, forget it)

(2) That hideous, dreadful 'Tribute' thing - whoever first thought it would be a good idea to play that dreck-laden drivel when there are so many great records out there which don't get played for crying out loud?

(3) Jackie Wilson "Because Of You" - great when it was first spun, but I hear more adventurous records when I shop at Asda. Problem is, this is a great tune which deserved its day with the dancefloor having been known for many many years. Then, like so many other good records - number (1) above included - becomes ubiquitous and ruined by the constant demand for it and the avid willingness of the desperate (and unadventurous) DJ to oblige

Oh yes, totally agree with that so may as well throw in 2 others to make the numbers up.

Also hate Sister Sledge - Love Don't Go Through No Changes On Me. Terrible record & why oh why have such a long title, 8 bloody words for God's sake.

The third one & the Emperors new clothes record. Pyramid - Soul Brothers Inc. Now you know you all hate it but are afraid to admit it because it's fashionable to say you love it as you think everyone else loves it but I'll let you into a secret. They hate it too but are scared to admit it for exactly the same reason as you.

A lot of records we grow tired of hearing, if you discovered most of them tomorrow then i think we would be falling over ourselves to get a copy . There`s really only one record i have never liked & never will , Judy Street - What.

In context , most records have their time & place but over exposure kills them.

A lot of people seem to like it, I've always found it a bit if a downer - but that's just me.

Timebox - Beggin'. Hated it from the first time I heard it. Yet I have to buy a german Deram copy one day for my Krautsville collection.

Yes! That's a good one Benji. A classic pop record albeit with Northern connections which has now for some reason become a refuge for every desperate DJ. :sleep3:

Firm favourite with the 60's guys and girls over here for the last 15/20 odd years. I know Keb Darge started playing it when he reinvented himself as an oldies DJ, didn't he?

Whilst I'm all in favour of these lists type threads, are we sure that people are being honest about what they actually hate?

Being pissed off about an overplayed track is one thing but actually saying that something like "Queen of fools" is worthy of hate doesn't make sense to me.

Now I know it's all about opinions but surely there are a slew of tracks to hate before we descend into detesting some of tracks that are actually the bedrock of the scene.

I'm not being dewy eyed about this, just trying to understand what motivates an opinion.

Be gentle with me.

I don't know, I think it's interesting to hear what some people love others can't stand and vice versa.

Stuff like Nightwatch 'lips to your heart' , opinion doesn't even come into it, it's been scientifically proven to have 0% soul content and totally shit.

Natch, I presume the 3 candidates are actually #s 2-4 behind the de facto worst 'NS' record of all time - Love Bandit - 'music' to throw up to. Violently. On that basis:

Samantha Jones

The Cherry People

Sisters Love

I'm not a misogynist, btw :wink: & nor have I ever bought, or contemplated buying, any of the above, to the best of my knowledge & belief*

* although I do have a box in the garage that I've never dared open since about 81. I think there is probably a Lord Thunder in there, but such matters are best left to be resolved in one's Will, imco.

1) Dean Barlow -Third window from the left (or is it right?)

2) Lou Lawton - Knick knack paddy (f***in) wank

3) ? - Catch that teardrop

Also hate the following not on their musical merits but due to dull unimaginative so called DJ's playing them ad nauseum and turning something I love into a joke

1) Bobby Womack - Home is where..

2) Philip Mitchell - I'm So Happy pissed off with this

3) Ruby andrews - Just Loving You

I agree with Jaco think the thread should be renamed 3 tracks you hate due to over exposure. Just sit back imagine you hadn't heard them for 5 yrs and then say you hate them.

People keep knocking Ral Donner....i've heard a lot worse than that in my time!

Really.? Elvis went into hiding when this got released.And "released" being the optimum description. :lol: .

I heard it was a social experiment by the Government to gauge reaction to an audio onslaught.A bit like Staring at Goats.
