Oh, definitely; overexposure and inappropriate context can really kill a great song. That's one reason why I don't listen to the radio/watch TV, etc.

A song I always start to well up on, and yes I can admit this is Cats in the Cradle, the original version.

On a similar song, Bowling for Soup - When We Die, if I'm watching the video, its more so than if I'm just listening, and for some odd reason, Atreyu - The Theft, when I'm watching the video.
