No suggestion from me your motives were any other way.
Now back on topic again (my fault)
What is so irritating about REO Speedwagon?
Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too?
For me there is one that has always been top of the list.
Edith Piaf…..l just can’t think of anything worse.
Do not get me wrong and consider my choice is in any way racist….l love to listen to music with songs in any language… Italian, French, Spanish…..
Russian and German can however be extremely demanding, but Edith Piaf (if possible in any language) is a potential harrowing experience.
Do any others on here have a similar artist, or artists that can trigger the same physical reaction?

@mylogic A Philadelphia R&B group called The Top Notes originally recorded Twist and Shout in 1961. It was a hit for The Isley Brothers in 1962. This was the version that the Beatles emulated in 1963. In this case, emulate is a euphemism for murder. Don't ask a question if you don't want people to answer. |
@aewarren ”Don’t ask a question….” Far from it l do want answers. I love to learn from an informed answer. No problemo. In truth you caught me ever so much out and you are entitled to say The Beatles murdered the song. You also proved my theory right. They covered another artists song. Eureka moment for me, thank you ever so. lt was probably after Twist and Shout The Beatles started to write more of there own songs and certainly post Rubber Soul. So many Lennon McCartney songs and consecutive number ones (8 l believe in the UK until Ticket to Ride) make people believe they wrote everything themselves. I fell into this trap too, hands up. |
Not that you were addressing this to me, but I'll chime in anyway and offer a short answer: I used to listen to REO and Styx and Kansas and Boston and bands such as those in the late '70s and early '80s, and it is not so much that I am irritated by them now-a-days, but to me their music/lyrics no longer seems to have any depth. (I don't mean depth in a literal sense.) That would be my short answer. However, just because my tastes have changed with the passage of time, and although I have made some judgmental comments on this thread, I truly don't condemn anything that someone else appreciates just because I don't care for it. |
@immatthewj REO Speedwagon What an answer. You answered a question without saying anything that could possibly offend anyone. And in the end said nothing in any way. In that way l mean nothing controversial ….Ha That sort of thing makes a great politician. No insult intended. Footnote…l don’t want anyone on here suggesting l am falling in love with you. I know this has been implied about you and some others on here.
