1 Bad Song by your favorite New Wave Band

Postby empyrean » Sun Nov 26, 2006 5:07 pm

No matter how we love our favorite band, there is still this one song from them that doesnt fit right.

Just ignore this if theres already a similar thread.

1. The Smiths - Hand In Glove
2. OMD - Locomotion
3. Duran Duran - Notorious
4. China Crisis - Hannah Hannah
5. Stone Roses - Fools Gold
6. The Cure - Why Cant I Be You?
7. Pet Shop Boys - New York City Boy
8. New Order - World In Motion
9. Depeche Mode - I Feel You
10.Screaming Blue Messiahs - 55 The Law

This list are just my personal opinion.

<p align="justify">

- "Lovecats" by The Cure

- "Flexible" by Depeche Mode (always hated that song)

- "Wild Boys" by Duran Duran

- "Doot Doot" by Freur (just kidding![}:)] I LOVE THAT SONG!)

- "Obscure Alternatives" by Japan (also my least favourite album by them)

- "Music" by Madonna (although I hate anything that came after that album)

- "(Forever) Live And Die" by OMD (there's quite a few I don't like afterwards as well...)

- "The Main Thing" by Roxy Music (I sometimes skip this one. It's not bad per se, but it's my least favourite from my favourite album)

- "Hand In Glove" by The Smiths (ha! I also hate it... I think it's the annoying harmonica)

- "Hymn" by Ultravox

Sometimes "duets" just don't work no matter how much you love the main artist...

Bowie (& Jagger) - Dancin' in the Street
Costello (& Daryl Hall) - The Only Flame in Town
Kate Bush (& Prince) - Why Should I Love You
Too Much Joy (& KRS-One) - Good Kill

"Touch And Go" by The Cars. In fact, after their stellar debut album and the follow up "Candy-O", the whole Panorama album was a letdown.

Interesting. Several of the songs listed are my favorite tunes from the corresponding bands (Ultravox, Duran, Echo). Shows you how subjective it all really is.

Totally agree! [i]Very[/i] New Wave, after two great Power Pop albums; however, "Shake It Up" had a lot of stinkers.
