Incidentally Morten Harket feels the same.
Ooooooh Harket Morten.......Hunting High and Low for recognition is cheap and shabby  .

Aye, so many great albums yet all you hear on the radio is 3 little birds or Buffalo Soldiers.

Quite, both rubbish, Lively Up Yourself, Concrete Jungle, 4 O`Clock Roadblock etc were good.
Always loved The Beatles, but, Hey Jude, Yesterday, Let It Be get played to death, decent songs, but not their best.
Incidentally, why does Hey Jude get played before games now, everywhere from Palace to Kiddy Harriers ? Although, it is better than that abomination `Sweet Caroline` by Neil chuffing Diamond, a man way over rated , his only good songs were the ones he wrote for The Monkees.

Another Brick in the Wall.
Vienna although by the end of the first week of its release I had acquired a strong dislike for it.
Shiny Happy People I like REM but really dislike this, also dislike one I love by them, but I never liked that.

Used to think Lovely Day by Bill Withers was quite cheery and uplifting. And then I worked in a supermarket for a couple of years and got to listen to it on a fucking loop all day. Every fucking day.
Seemingly forever. And fucking ever. It became so teeth gratingly irritating I could have ripped them out with a pair of pliers. Got so bad I joined the army to get away from it all.

Wouldn't say I don't like it but, Bohemian Rhapsody doesn't have the same effect these days.
Struggle with Madonna or Prince despite liking both as a teenager.

For ages after it came out I used to think he was singing "Dominic" on repeat, not "Lovely Day". True story.

I wonder how many kids at school would sing "Hey, Teacher, leave those kids alone" during the early 80s? Seemed to happen quite often at ours.
Vienna was always a load of fuggin dirge.
