Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too?

@hickamore You beat me to it!

“James Taylor, who if not favored by family connections, an ingratiating personality, and lucky timing (a cultural moment of stunning vapidity -- "I'm OK, You're OK;" "Johnathan Livingston Seagull;" "Love Story" -- "Fire and Rain" was of a piece) would have become the summer camp music director he was born to be.”

Not specificall, but not a fan of mozart or most bluegrass.  

Also, Skyfall is Adele's worst song but everyone raves over it.  its barely even music.

These are a few more bands who would force me to change the station if I still listened to the radio. The list is a lot longer than I thought it would be, but there's a lot of bad music out there.

Pretty much all Heavy Metal

Kiss

Bon Jovi

Nirvana

Toto

Any band featuring David Lee Roth

Spin Doctors

Hootie and the Blowfish

All Boy Bands (New Kids, N'Sync, Jonas Bros etc)

Nickelback

Little River Band

Air Suppy

Michael Bolton

Nelson

Bobby Goldsboro

And of course, Kenny G

Love the Beatles but @thecarpathian "Hey Jude" brings back memories of my nephew who as a first child of one sister and brother in law was always 'the star of the show', every holiday the lights go up, entire family has to put up with little sh@@ singing this terrible, repetitive drivel, gag me with a fork.

Wonder how often associating some negative experience to a particular song or artist leads to our dislike? I have no doubt some of my aversion to early Bruce due to cult like following. I have general aversion to all artists/performers placed on pedestals, can't relate to the psychology of 'cults of personality." I actually admire Dylan's detachment/ambivalence towards his cult, wider perspectives often missing in those placed on pedestals.

Well now, I can certainly sleep better now knowing that you do not HATE the Beatles. Personally, I couldn't care less about anything you think about anything.

You are simply a word that rhymes with PONY.
