    90s songs that were OK the first time, but gave you cancer after they were played nonstop for months

    This Oasis song was huge in Great Britain. Had a Brit tell me once it was everyone's high school class song when they graduated, comparing it to the way Green Day's "Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)" was everyone in the US's high school class song.

    90s songs that were OK the first time, but gave you cancer after they were played nonstop for months

    Also hey, how many times collectively do you guys think we've heard Stone Temple Pilots' "Interstate Love Song," "Plush," "Wicked Garden," "Creep," "Vasoline," "Dead & Bloated," "Big Empty," "Sex Type Thing," or "Trippin' On a Hole in a Paper Heart"? And not single one of us grumpy old fucks...

    90s songs that were OK the first time, but gave you cancer after they were played nonstop for months

    Not a bad song and not overplayed but I love it so I'm sharing it anyway The descending Bm -> Bb -> A (Bm fall Bb Head over A feet) in the chorus is really fun to sing along to despite being "wrong" in the sense of traditional Western music theory. Awesome songwriting. Also not at all an...

    90s songs that were OK the first time, but gave you cancer after they were played nonstop for months

    I mostly have been posting songs I genuinely enjoy and never got sick of, but that's one that truly was played to death for me despite initially digging it. Doesn't help that Radiohead has so many better songs but normies focus on that first single from that first album...

    90s songs that were OK the first time, but gave you cancer after they were played nonstop for months

    When I was a kid I was into Weird Al, and always thought he should do a parody of "Save Tonight." I think it came out around the time I had to start shaving during puberty, so it went... Shave tonight And fight the facial hair Come tomorrow Tomorrow you'll be bare ("Cool story pharmakos" --...

    90s songs that were OK the first time, but gave you cancer after they were played nonstop for months

    "Creep" was (and still is) absolutely overplayed, I think it's just one of those ones that's been played so much that we are numb to it. Like turning nose blind to a bad smell.

    90s songs that were OK the first time, but gave you cancer after they were played nonstop for months

    This thread has sort of just turned into a "songs they played a lot in the 90s but we are grumpy old fucks so we need to pretend they annoyed us" thread. "Shine" is indeed a banger, I even can play it on guitar.

    I always thought the guitar and string parts in "Iris" were a direct ripoff of "World I Know" by Collective Soul.

    You recognize it as being a parody of the old "to be fair you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty" copypasta, right...?

    Chat GPT AI

    In the ever-expanding lexicon of human enterprise, the terms "inventor" and "artificer" reside within the corridors of creation and ingenuity. They share a kinship, a fraternity of the mind if you will, but they diverge in their fundamental essence and existential import. The inventor, you see...

    Barbie (2023)

    To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand the Barbie movie. The humor is extremely nuanced, and without a solid understanding of societal gender norms and the complex history of Barbie, most of the satire will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Barbie's nuanced...
