Shouldn't Redsox play "Sweet Emotion" by Boston's Aerosmith instead of "Sweet Caroline" by New York's Diamond????>> EXPLAINATION: A groundskeeper @ Fenway Park had a daughter named Caroline. He would have the sound crew play this song for her everynight!

I mean we got the beginnings of U2, Def Leppard and Bon Jovi. We got other great bands like Huey Lewis and the News. The 90's gave us.....Color Me Badd, Snow and Chumbawumba

Although Bermuda Schwartz would be a close second! I can't stand just about anything played on KIIS (Los Angeles Top 40). I can't listen long enough to tell you the names of the songs. Sorry. For whoever mentioned "Achy Breaky Heart"... two things... 1) there was a comedian who had this routine after Kurt Cobain killed himself, talking about how they radio stations kept playing three Nirvana hits over and over again, and how we were all going to be suffering when Billy Ray Cyrus dies; 2) Have you heard Weird Al's "Achy Breaky Song" - about how he can't stand "Achy Breaky Heart"? BRC was cool about it, and the song generated money for charity.

Originally Posted By SFH Oh, and I can't stand just about any song where the lead singer sounds like he is bored, half-asleep, or has something in his mouth. I want to scream, "HEY BUDDY! YOU ARE RECORDING A SONG! WAKE UP AND ENUNCIATE!!!" And while we're at it - I wish singers/rappers/vocalists would stop placing inappropriate punctuation in the middle of their names. And capitalize your name, initials, or whatever. You are a singer (and maybe a songwriter). Not a graphic artist.
