I don't think that it's possible to not start singing Living On A Prayer when it comes on the radio! And is it really Christmas time without Last Christmas!
ReplyDeleteExactly! Thanks for stopping by!

And that is just the tip of a very large iceberg.
I think the songs that are most surprising to me on this list are the ones you "loathe"...Light My Fire? Lights? Like A Prayer? (I'm not much of a Madonna fan, but that's one of hers I actually enjoy quite a bit. I need to hear more of why you loathe these songs.
ReplyDeleteLOL! Ok, fair enough. 1) Lights. That song and Wheel in the Sky are the two Journey songs that I have never, ever liked. Lights just seems to drag, with Steve Perry moaning along. I just the get the overwhelming urge to snap my fingers and tell Steve and the fellas to pick up the pace or something. 2) Light My Fire. I dated a guy once who really loved The Doors. The Doors had never really been on my radar until I dated him. I knew who they were and knew their more popular songs, but never really listened to them with frequency or intentionality until I dated him. He used to utter the line, "C'mon, baby, light my fire..." to me. I am fairly certain that my loathing of that song comes from a negative association my brain has made between the song, that line, and him. LOL! 3) Like a Prayer. I used to like Madonna, not like a big, big fan or anything, but I liked her better than average. Over time, my musical listening experience (through regular radio programming, MTV viewing, and Sirius XM radio listening) became absolutely saturated by her. Too much Madonna! I wasn't the biggest fan of Like a Prayer even when it came out and now when I hear it, I immediately cringe.
DeleteI can relate most to your reason behind Light My Fire. One particularly difficult relationship of mine, One by U2 was our song. I can still recognize that it is a solid song, but I don't want to listen to it. Still. 20+ years later.
