Doing a meme, which is super-late...

Straight from the coolness that is Music Memoirs, the webmistress asks readers to list:

"Top 5 Songs That You Wish You'd Never Hear Again"

1. "Flying Under Radar" by Jerry Harrison
This song has amazing power. It almost, ALMOST, invalidates his work with the Modern Lovers and Talking Heads. I also believe this song singlehandedly killed his solo career.

2. "Oh Diane" by Fleetwood Mac
Probably one of the worst songs Lindsey has ever written, the worst off of Mirage... and the worst by the band, period.

3. "Gift of Screws" by Lindsey Buckingham
Gotta step up your game, man, your bandmate did a better job singing a poem. Maybe Emily Dickinson just isn't singable...

4. "Someone Like You" by Adele
The high notes she hits in this song are like cheese graters against my nerves. It doesn't help that I'm also tired of her stuff being played over and over. The perils of working at a bookstore. /lulz

5. "Jar of Hearts" by Christina Perri
You know you are already on my s***-list when you write lyrics like "you're gonna catch a cold/from the ice inside your soul". Most ridiculous image ever.
