I like "Message In A Bottle", "Invisible Sun" and "Spirits In The Material World", not much else by them.

Imagine and Let It Be always struck me as kitschy, phony and annoying. I love the Beatles and Lennon is my favorite Beatle but those two sucked.

Robin Thicke's When I Get You Alone has to be seen to be believed. It put me off MTV for good when it came out

Cream-sweet wine
Crazy Backwards Alabhabet- get to you
Depeche Mode-dreaming of me
Die Warzau-strike to the body

This is, quite possibly, the worst and most annoying song ever written.



And then there's Last Christmas by Wham! It might be OK if it weren't so repetitive, but it's so repetitive it's incredibly annoying.

Then you might enjoy "Rick" making fun of his own song:

I don't get why some people despise Last Christmas, IMO it's a fine pop tune

To me, it's one of those songs that has no staying power. It sounded OK to me the first couple of times I heard it but got progressively annoying the more I heard it. The song being overplayed during the holidays doesn't help.

As I said, it would be OK if it weren't so repetitive, but it's so incredibly repetitive it gets annoying.

The one verse they keep repeating over and over, I mean - c'mon! Surely they could have come up with some different lyrics for the other iterations of the verse.

It's like ....

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears, I'll give it to someone special.
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears, I'll give it to someone special.
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears, I'll give it to someone special.
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears, I'll give it to someone special.
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears, I'll give it to someone special.
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears, I'll give it to someone special.
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears, I'll give it to someone special.
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears, I'll give it to someone special.
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears, I'll give it to someone special.
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears, I'll give it to someone special.
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears, I'll give it to someone special.

Hmmm doesn't strike me as being significantly more repetitive than the average 80s song.

Not to mention, the best music of that era adopted repetitiveness as a key aesthetic principle (not least Joy Division, a band George Michael admired). You know the Three Rs? As in repetition, repetition, repetition? “We dig repetition, Chairman Mao digs repetition, President Carter digs repetition. We dig it. We dig it.”
