What songs are on the jukebox in Hell?

[Yeagermeister]

Older country like George Jones isn't terrible but the Garth Brooks induced bubble gum country is gawdawful

I have never cared for older country. Too dang slow for me.

 

[BrAinPaiNt]

There are a handful of older country artist that I can listen to if I am forced.

But there are far and few between.

 

[ROMOSAPIEN9]

"Happy Birthday."

 

[Yeagermeister]

Anything played by Juke


Just kidding man :eekmouse:

 

[Hoov]

The only appeal country music has for is the many pretty women singers. Other than that I don't care about it.

I dont like country music much, But i make an exception for waylon jennings. Love his stuff, thats outlaw country music.

Aint livin long like this is a great song. and theres another one i love.... dont you think this outlaw business done got outta hand (i think thats the title).

Ashlee Simpson -- La La

I proudly booed her at the Orange Bowl.


One very popular song I can't stand... nails down a chalkboard for me... is Imagine. Listening to that over and over again would be sheer torture for me.

You talking about John Lennon's "Imagine"? If so, you're a communist.

I love Imagine. However, if you look at the lyrics, they could be interpreted as communist: no possessions, no religion, a brotherhood of man, etc. I'm not claiming Lennon was a communist per se, but it's an interesting example of how you can often read what you want to read in things. Hence the radically different interpretations of the bible, the Koran, etc.

That's ironic...considering the song and person who did it.

The tune is nice, but in my opinion, the lyrics are just a bland and over-simplified embodiment of that pop nihilism and moral relativism that was so typical of that era.


As for me being a communist, well I guess I beg to differ. If anything -- as BP and jem have pointed out -- the song itself is a sort of communist manifesto.

Lennon himself once described it as: "an anti-religious, anti-nationalistic, anti-conventional, anti-capitalistic song, but because it's sugar-coated, it's accepted."

I think that's really why I hate it so much. There are plenty of anti-establishment songs out there... but this one is the sappiest, most "sugar-coated" of the bunch. And in my opinion, the reason he made it so "sugar-coated" with such a pleasant little tune was so that he wouldn't threaten his commercial viability. It's fine to sing about having "no possessions" but tougher to live that way, eh John?


P.S. I'm glad SOMEBODY got mad about me naming that song, though. I couldn't believe that it was getting no reaction... I was starting to think everyone had me on "Ignore" or something.

Country music in general

Nu-Metal for the most part

Teeny Bopper bubble gum music.

I agree 100%

The only CDs that I own that are considered country belong to Johnny Cash.

Get all that Nu-Metal in there (although I will admit that I like and own Limp Bizkit's first album )

I think the only newer ones I got, and they may be old now, are the first 2 godsmack cds.

I'm with you 100% on this and many other songs from the so-called hero of the working class.

 

[Hostile]

I forgot to add that it was a duet by Hostile and Yoko Ono.

Oh, that would suck. I can't sing with a gun to my head.

 

[Yeagermeister]

I know what you mean. I couldn't carry a tune if it had handles. I make some of the American Idols freaks look like the best singer in the world.
