"Domine Salvum Fac Pontificem Nostrum Leonem" - The Last Castrato

"Life in the Fast Lane" - The Eagles.

DeKay

the very most of R&R Hall of Fame will most-likely get me to lift up needle.

There are also albums with the inverse of that problem—the ones we buy for just one track, and really can't get into the remainder.

@dekay I've not heard of " The Last Castrato "  but a few minutes ( even seconds ) of listening on Spotify makes me want to never lower a tonearm on to that recording .

@czarivey  If so why would you buy the albums they award ?  The songs I will lift the tonearm are on otherwise grat albums .

@dogberry not getting into or liking is not the same as so bad or irritating that you have to get up an lift the tonearm . 

In that sense I'd say "Stairway To Heaven" is the lift-up song of the album.

Tears in Heaven is another song 

Not even close for me (although I don’t have it on vinyl)…..”Kiss” by Prince, makes my ear skin crawl. Whenever, and by whatever source it comes on, I’m reaching for something to remove it from my life. When he screams, “AINT NO PARTICULAR SIGN…”!!!!!!  it doesn’t get any worse than that.

"Within You Without You" on the Sgt. Pepper album.

But Eric, that’s the first song on side 2. Yeah, I know. Not having to hear the rest of the side is a free bonus. 😉

Ode To Billie Joe on Patricia Barber's Cafe Blue LP. Musical monotony, and skip-worthy.

"Angie"

"Wish You Were Here"

"Purple Haze"

An amazing artist and incredible album, but I loathe Jane's Addiction "Been Caught Stealing"  

Mother - Synchronicity 

Good hits on Angie and Purple Haze!

Wish you were here @willyht you should give another listen out of their live concert Live in Pompeii. You will hear best of their poorly recorded sound.

Definitely the Baby.

Didn't Lou Reed do an album that was nothing but distortion?

Trout. Mask. Replica.

Fiddle About on Tommy - bleah.
We saw the musical on Broadway last weekend and it was hard to sit through it but not as dire as the original or the movie versions.

To All

I'll agree that some songs ( like Angie ) are boring and or monotonous but to me they are not bad enough to get out of my chair and lift the tonearm .

I also agree with that songs covered by other artists can be off putting or at least hit or miss , like the Lou Reed tribute album from RSD , like like most but not of the renditions . 

As for " Fiddle About " , I don't see this as a stand alone song , to me it's just part of the story .  

The Lou Reed album is "Metal Machine Music". It's abstract electronic music.

I like "Purple Haze" and the second side of Sgt. Pepper. "Life in the Fast Lane" and "Wish You Were Here" and "Angie" and "Stairway to Heaven" don't bother me, though I wouldn't seek any of them out.

Word.

Pink Floyd, Mettle -- Seamus -- S1-T5. Have no idea why, but that dog howling (Seamus?) makes it unlistenable. Luckily it's the last track on S1, so an easy skip.

Interesting that Tracks 40-50 years old are a cause of irritation.

I bought a Album in the past few months, where the Pianist who is very talented, seemed to have a need to add words, and proved through doing so there song writing is very needy.

All songs were One Word only blended into the music, or one phrase used commonly in everyday talk. 'Brush Your Teeth'  😁on repeat.

Such a sabotage has taken away the want to listen to the younger musicians exceptional piano playing that is on offer.

Magical Mystery Tour - Flying and Blue Jay Way - luckily they are consecutive so I only have to lift the arm once.

Pat Metheny Group -Barcarole on Offramp which is otherwise an exceptional album Lucky there also since it is the first track.

Too many to mention on Springsteen's The River. It should have been a single record album and then would have been up there with his first four.

Steely Dan - Everything Must Go - last track on side one - Slang of Ages (Walter ( RIP) sings. Only song I ever skip on any of their or Fagen's 13 records I skip.

I personally really like Yoko Ono

but when I want people to leave, that’s what I play. 

@groovey 

I agree with you , I've gone so far as to put my JL and YO albums in storage and only listen to JL's Acoustic CD .
