• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

Songs you like by bands you hate

"talk" - coldplay. they borrowed the melody from "computer love" and made it work to tremendous effect. if coldplay wrote more songs like this, i probably wouldn't dismiss them like i do.
 
I GOT THAT BOOM BOOM POW

THEY TRYIN' TA COPY MY SWAGGER
I'M ON THAT NEXT SHIT NOW
I'M SO 3008
YOU'RE SO TWO-THOUSAND AND LATE
I GOT THAT BOOM BOOM BOOM
THAT FUTURE BOOM BOOM BOOM

~_~
 
Probably Animals by Nickelback. I hate Nickelback.
 
if i like a band's songs, then why would I hate them in the first place?
 
Because some bands are shit, but happen to write one incredibly catchy tune. i.e. their discography is crap but they have one song you like
 
"Nobody's Home" by Avril Lavigne; I hate most of her songs but this one always gets me.
"Krwling" by Linkin Park, mainly just because I lovelovelove "Crawling"'s hook but hate Linkin Park's general obnoxiousness, and this has less of that
 
None that I can think of. For me to really hate a band, every last one of their songs has to be somewhere between total crap and "ehhh," and that doesn't really happen often. Probably because I'm not nearly as picky as a lot of people on the Internet.

And usually, if I hear a handful of songs from someone on the radio and I can't stand any of them, I don't go looking for more music from that band/singer/etc...

So I guess there might be a few "songs I like from bands/singers/etc. I hate" out there, but I haven't found any of them yet.
 
Eh, I'd say "Sk8ter Boi" by Avril Lavigne is at least better than mediocre, whereas the rest I've heard from her isn't. Though that may be because I used to karaoke it with my friend and we had tons of fun, so yeah.
 
I like that Boom Boom Pow, but I find a few other songs by BEP catchy and am generally indifferent to them, so I don't think it counts.

"If Everyone Cared" by Nickelback is also good. Also "Numb" by Linkin Park, probably because I relate to it in a very unfortunately emo way. I've also enjoyed some techno remixes of Korn songs.

...And "Toxic" by Britney Spears.

Thisssss. Owning Singstar (especially Popworld) has made me totally love so many songs I should hate with a passion because the band's awful, but just hearing the specific song makes me grin like a nutter (I'm looking at you, McBusted's Obviously).

Similarly, I can stand Sk8er Boi, because of Elite Beat Agents.

guilty as charged.

see also: Pussycat Doll's Don't Cha, Soulja Boy's Crank That and 50 Cent's In da Club, amongst others. seriously, their stuff is normally shit and I absolutely hate them in every other respect... but these songs are so ridiculously catchy and just stick in the mind until you break down and cry in shame.
