Music that everyone else loves but you just don't

Like the thread title says, there's some music that everyone else seems to love but I don't.
I don't have their albums, I switch stations if I hear it, my eyes glaze over when yet another thread starts up about how great the remaster of the remastered tapes begins...get a grip I wanna yell it's elevator muzak! :p

Who's on your list then?

Here's some of mine:

Eagles (Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh...run's a country mile to get away)
DSOTM
ACDC
Dianna Krall
The Boss (but if he's in a backing band then that's OK(think Warren Zevon) )
Madonna
All Boy Bands
All Girl Bands
ABBA
The Stones...basically everything
Nickleback
Fleetwood Mac (everything since P.Green left)
Adele
The twenty thousand clones of Aretha Franklin
Johnny Winter
Grateful Dead
Lots and lots of Neil Young
U2
Steely Dan all albums except CDTE
The Doors
Led Zep after Houses of the Holy

There's more but that's a start.

I think growing up listening to Grand Funk Railroad ruined me for heavy metal music....nothing compares I'm afraid to Mark, Don and Mel.

......

Yep, I know there's a lot of elevator muzak a lot of Mall muzak in there but ...hey that's where this stuff tends to end up or on baby boomer FM stations.

Now don't get angry, don't get cranky if your favourite music appears in someone's list...just chill and write your own. This is just a thread for people who mightn't like what everybody else likes. Some harmless fun if you like.

You could of course put an alternative to your disliked band/singer/musician in brackets. Even though I didn't, feel free to do so yourself.

Cheers :D

"I also don't care for all those melancholy, flat singing female Brazilian Jazz vocalists."

You may not care for some of them but have you really listened to all of them or is it just the melancholy ones you dislike? :) Yeah, there are a lot of gringos that don't like the Brazilian sound but truly there are some really great Brazilian female vocalists and it ain't all melancholy. But I hear you, and you aren't the first to complain. Most of the audiophile guys I know don't like it either.

Interesting comments about Chopin. I know several folks over the years that have told me they don't care for his music. I can't say I like EVERYTHING he composed but surely Yu, being a solo piano aficionado there must be something among his works that would appeal to you. Don't give up!
