Band Most Well Known Songs That Are Also Their Worst
 

Lets see then...

REM - Everybody Hurts (Hate it)
Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody (7 mins of utter bollocks)
Pulp - Common People (Not a patch on the rest of their stuff)
Guns n Roses - November Rain (Hate hate hate overblown wank)
Black Sabbath - Paranoid (I think this song is average at best)

Exploited - Punks Not Dead (out of all their songs, i cant believe this the one most people mention)

Ramones - Blitzkrieg Bop (i dont care how cool it is its annoying and is the only thing every kid in a hot topic ramones shirt has heard)

I won't debate you on the songs I think are great (coughQueencough) but November Rain and Everybody Hurts? I mean, yeah those songs are trash, but I would nver say that is their most popular song.

How about Losing My Religeon and Welcome to the Jungle. I'd assign those.

Sabbath is a toss up, non-rock fans don't know it, but I'd bet they would have at least heard of Iron man.

ya, i think jungle is more popular than november rain, and Iron Man is probably more popular than paranoid ...

REM though...what about shiny happy people? that song gets on my nerves and for some reason is the song that comes to mind when i hear ppl mention REM.

Oasis - Wonderwall (*Uhrgh* I hate it)
Guns 'n Roses - Knocking On Heaven's Door
Deep Purple - Smoke On The Water

I`m mostly going by songs I hear on crappy local radio.

If they play guns n roses it`s ALWAYS November Rain , If they play REM it`s ALWAYS Everybody hurts ....and so on & so on

i agree with shiny happy people and bloody wonderwall!!!!! hate them both!

i like all those songs, 'specially the rem and queen ones

Prince- even if you've heard everything that has he has released on Sony records during the bulk of his career in the 80's and 90's you might still not have any idea who he actually is and what he's capable of.
