I love all songs from 60’s 70’s, brings back happy memories of growing up and family fun……all seemed well back then. Compared to the time we are in today ???? I go back to those days in my mind all the time to run from the stuff going on now
I liked it...and still do...because I was spending the night at my friend's house and was in love with his older sister. She would walk around the house singing it, so it is intrenched in my mind.
this is all silly. Many old song lyrics are dated to the jargon, slang & expressions of that time, because they were created at that time.

Could'nt stand the 80s, but did like the 90s and 2000s as my son's were teens then so heard it played all the time. Radio stayed turned OFF in the 80s, worse decade for me but not for others. Can't force people to like everything. I was born in the 50s so grew up during 60s and 70s and listened to majority of it, some great, some not so. Preferred music from 1920s to the early 70s, with lots of classical thrown in. Everyone has their favourite decade that does'nt suit others. No point getting upset about it, just don't listen to stuff you don't like. Radios have and off switch, use it when something you hate comes on. I listen to Amazon radio stations as I can select decades I enjoy and avoid those I don't. With normal commercial radio its guaranteed that something will come on that you hate, but if you turn it off you may miss next one you do like. No win situation, that's why I stick to specialised radio stations for decades I love like Amazon's and BBC Sound of the 60s, 70s and 90s. Get to hear music you love without having to suffer music you don't like. There is a Sounds of the 80s channel on BBC Sounds for those who like that sort of thing, same on Amazon too. Check them out and happy listening.
I don't know whether to like this video for its lovely walk down memory lane with some of the most 'cherished' songs of my generation, or to dislike it for its disconnected, unjust, scathing commentary from someone hearing it without the appreciation of having been in the historical context of the culture that produced it.
@davidwiley4953 Johnny Burnette didn't write it. It was written by the Sherman Brothers, a couple years before they started writing songs for Disney. All the songs from Mary Poppins and all from the Jungle Book except the Bare Necessities were written by them.
Some I could do without. But my older brother (18 years older than me) actually had me listen to some of these songs and learn a few kinda his version of musical appreciation class. Study lyrics for some, guitar or piano for others.
The Monkees caught way too much flak for them not writing their songs or not playing their instruments, many groups did the same thing and since the Wrecking Crew was the group of musicians who played on the records, I don't see the problem
'Muskrat Love' was originally titled 'Muskrat Candlelight' by its composer and first performer, Willis Alan Ramsey. It was renamed 'Muskrat Love' when covered by America on their 'Hat Trick' album. Neither version was as offensive as C&T's take with all the synthesized burps and farts thrown in as an effort to be cute.
I don't "hate" any of these songs OR Bands. Who hated them? No one "deserves" hatred for making music. If I have to think of a song I "hate", it would be 'Who Let The Dogs Out'. I could go forever and never hear it again. 😅
It’s obvious you didn’t live in the 60’s and the 70’s. Many of those songs are favorites. Disco Duck was to make fun of disco because disco sucked so badly.
@@shakerman55 tell me about it, have absolutely no idea who any of them are except that they have weird nanes. Fragile little snowflakes of this generation.
Every Mexican i knew growing up, love the song speedy Gonzales. The current younger generations can't handle anything that points to the fact that there are stereotypes for reasons and just recognizing that is not hateful. Modern fragility will be the death of the free world.
The narrator saying that Speedy was a racist character is confusing. So, making a Mexican character a cool and likable good guy is somehow wrong? And then singing about him makes it worse? The narrator has a strange idea of what racist means. Don't despair though. A lot of kids from the newer generation are getting plenty tired of the world being offended. There is hope!
I’m Mexican American and I’ve always liked Soeedy Gonzales and his cousin SlowPoke Rodriguez. They are caricatures, and exaggerated ones at that. But they were funny to me as a kid. I’ve watched more recently and I still see the obvious humor.
Gabriel Iglesias has a great stand up routine talking about speedy Gonzales on CZcams. I wish white liberals would stop being offended for everyone else.
The Osmonds were the Jackson 5's top bubble-gum competition before MJ went solo. I remember them both having their best happening from '69 to the the earliest '70's.
I love most of these songs!!! I don’t understand why Young girl” is so maligned when he is telling the girl, who apparently fooled him regarding her age, to stay away but nobody worries about Neil Diamond’s “You’ll be a woman soon” or Oingo Boingo’s “I love little girls”, Stray Cats’ “Sexy and 17” or the Beatles’ “You’re 16” Also, there was/is NOTHING RACIST about Speedy Gonzalez and having been born and raised in Mexico I can tell you he was one of our favorites, and Pat Boone’s song was actually translated and covered by SEVERAL Mexican pop bands. I wish people who know nothing would stop speaking for us and erasing the things we love.
Songs hated by who exactly? This list does not seem to reflect any the opinion of any general group of people. It looks as if one person simply listed a bunch of stuff he doesn't like.
How can you fault the singer of Young Girl for singing that song. He is telling the young girl to stop acting grown up and be a kid. Musicians always have young girls after them and a song telling them to be a kid is how a musician communicates with their fans.
I honestly thank God I grew up LONG before everyone looked for utter feltergarb to be permanently insulted and offended by. The world before 2000 was so much better off.
Totally agree Kim. Gen Z have a lot to answer for. Totally intalented and clueless about making music worth listening too. All woke salad crap. Not memorable whatsoever.
@@trance9158talking about music of those decades, not what was going on politically. And btw, WE in the UK did'nt have no part of your war with Vietnam. We were kids enjoying the music of our time. We never looked at newspapers or watched the news, our parents shielded us from war, we lived in relative peace here. These such matters were only discussed by our parents when we were asleep in bed at night. All we cared about was if our favourite singer or band was No. 1 in the charts and watch them perform on Top Of The Pops in the 60s and 70s, great music.
Yeesh, you can taste the salt coming from here! I get it, we get it but c'mon now. I'm an 80s baby myself and I grew up around that kind of music, watched TV shows that were a LOT more exciting than whatever we got nowadays. You may not like it but you got masses that grew up listening to that and didn't need to understand it.
These songs of the 70’s , 80’s, & 90’s were pretty great, although some of the 90’s music 🎵 were not as great 😊. Most of the 70’s,80’s songs I really enjoyed because I am from the era of music 🎶 of the 60’s&70’s. The song called “Feelings “ is one that I really like!! 😅😊❤💜😎🖤☮️🌈🦄🦋🇺🇸🇹🇨🏴🇬🇧. Thanks for the memories of those years back then!! 😂 42:38
I loved every song you hate! I'm a baby boomer, yu have to come from that era to appreciate " maybe not so much the lyrics" but the music is very memorable!! Many were happy and fun!
Same here. Baby boomer who knew good music when she heard it. Today's garbage is far from satisfactory, in fact it is abysmal compared to the great music we had. My kids were born in 70s and 80s and now in late 30s and 40s, they had their own musical tastes that were rooted in the mid 90s and upwards. Britpop, rock, indie, grunge, dance, each lad had his favourites. They were'nt interested in rap from what I could make out, usually turned it off when that come on, their choice entirely. No one can force someone to listen to something they don't like?
Your most hated songs. I and many disagree. Lighten up and laugh a bit because your generation seem to sit around and wait to complain about the smallest things like a cartoon.
Those songs and groups are what my generation grew up with . They are better than todays music .Whom ever you are that did this video , most likely you were not even born yet.
i don't like your commentary the most hated songs we liked them a lot. You have to put a bad spin on them. i guess you are to young to understand, we were changing the world back then.
How were you "changing the world?" A pretty self serving thing to say, if you ask me. I think some of the songs weren't that bad, but certainly Feelings, Afternoon Delight, Muskrat Love , and Kokomo are horrible. Still, this Nick guy, the narrator, is an a-hole. Pretty mean spirited to call Toni Basil "Middle Aged".
These were good songs! So I guess you’re gonna defend the crap that’s out today. At least these songs were family, friendly, and the singers had talent. I’m sick and tired of this generation being so damn overly sensitive which I’m guessing the narrator is part of the generation.
Toni Basil is from Las Vegas. I met her in the 80's after her Mickey. Before her parents passed away she's been living in France since the 80's. She's been in Elvis Presley movies. And she is doing choreography still.
"Yummy Yummy Yummy" is about oral sex. Members of the band gave an interview, saying that they wanted to see if they could get it past the censors. They made it sound so cheesy that censors ignored it. 🤣🤣🤣
Obviously done by someone that didn’t experience that era. Agree with some but there were definitely worse. How about Here Comes the Judge.and My Ding a Ling? Or possibly D.O.A…or The Archie’s and The Cowsills?
@@SmokeyGoodness I have the Bloodrock albums too and and like them. Arguably unique and groundbreaking at the time, so based on whatever criteria was used to compile this list could have been included. I disagree with many of the songs on the list.
This is a stupid way to kill time…🙄….and I’ll never get this time back. Did I like all of these songs when they came out? No. But then I’m not a CZcamsr trying to make money while whining about the pathetic nature of past popular culture music. Note; you should take a look at some of the crap that comes out now. Definitely NOT subscribing.
Btw, people don't like a song based on the lyrics; they're barely aware of them. They like a song because of the music- the beat, melody, etc, or the harmonies or sound of a singer's voice. Most people couldn't give a sh-t about lyrics.
All I got out of this is how screwed up perceptions are today. With a raciest here and there added in. The 1960's and early 70's was really a different world. We didn't find hate everywhere like we do today. We didn't get all worked up over nothing like we do today. About the only thing we hated back then was the stupid War. We laughed at Tiny Tim and sure as hell didn't mind hearing it and there was a radio station called Dr. Demento that loved to play the crazy songs like "Their Coming to Take Me Away" and I'm looking over, my Dead dog Rover who I hit with a power mower" along with some Weird Al stuff. Maybe we were all too stoned to let anything bother us and just get a laugh out of it. In a way your reasons for bashing what was fun is part of what is going wrong with everything today and it's really sad.
They were obviously loved by millions, if not me, or we wouldn't know them and be discussing them now. I've grown to where I don't ask whether I like a song (especially an oldie hit), but rather why did it work on anyone?
Elvis once remarked if Harris had not recorded MacArthur Park, he would be in the studio recording the song. I think Elvis would have nailed the song (and I'm a Beatles guy.)
Carrie Fisher was 22 years old when she filmed the "You're Sixteen" video. Songwriters aren't necessarily writing about themselves, or writing about the present. There's nothing in the lyrics to suggest the guy is older than here. It's a lot more likely the song is about two high school sweethearts who are the same age. Was Sheb Wooley really concerned he'd be eaten by a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater, or do you think he thought it would be a catchy, successful song?
The only thing I hate here is YOU making this video. It started with the thumbnail: Lindsey Buckingham, Stevie Nicks and Deborah Harry representing a 'most hated' list??? So I clicked and watched, only to find that none of these actually were on the list. That is a good thing, 'cause they sure don't belong on one. So that was merely clickbait, and sure enough I fell for it. But neither of the others belong on this list either. YOU may not like them, but others do. In the end I even clicked a thumb down, and made this comment. So I guess you achieved all your goals with this one. Shame on you.
Where to start? 1) You had to be there. This sounds like a most hated list by someone who didn't live through these decades. Not surprising as it sounds like a copy of many similar CZcams videos with many of the same songs - also by people who didn't live through these decades. Yes some fans didn't like "Revolution #9" for example but many others, such as my friends and I, found it one of the most interesting songs on an album that was full of filler songs. Also we listened to it over and over as we had to wait for the next Beatle release. We did not have the luxury of sitting down and listening to the entire Beatles catalogue at one time. Also bitching about "We Built This City" now ignores the fact that the B side had empty space where the local DJ could adlib the sections about their own city. It was fun listening to local DJ's trying to fill in your city. Now we just hear the pop single version. 2) Popular yet hated? If a song sold hundreds of thousands of copies at the time then clearly it wasn't hated by many. The fact that decades later we don't want to hear Girl or Physical is a reflection of both our changing times and not a reflection on the song or band when it was popular. 3) Overplayed. The reason that many of the 60's-80's songs are disliked by the current generation is that we've overplayed them to death. If I never hear another song from those decades then I'd be okay for that. If Directors would just stop using music from the last century in movies and tv shows. 4) Pop v.s. Rock v.s. Novelty. When you make this type of video, if you jump through various music genera then you are going to get poor reactions. Placing innocuous music like the Carpenters with novelty songs like Disco Duck with attempts at avante garde like Revolution #9 is just an easy and sloppy way of throwing together a video. 5) Old Stories. Like other videos, it falls back on old stories that don't matter anymore like the Monkees being a manufactured band. Of course they were and they fully agree having sung "Hey, hey we are the Monkees, you know we like to please, we're a manufactured image, with no philosophies..... You say we're manufactured. To that we all agree. So make your choice and we'll rejoice and never be free. Hey Hey we are the Monkees, We've said it all before. The money's in. We're made of tin. We're here to give you more." Many groups were manufactured such as obvious ones such as The Partridge Family but even groups like the Sex Pistols and Culture Club. To create this type of list you need to stick within a category of music or select criteria that can be used across categories.
Dude, you want to show top hated songs but you don’t play any of them. Not even a little good. Play at least 15/20 seconds of them. That’s pathetic man. Get it right so you can get descent comments
Genesis surprised me a bit. "Batdance" was actually terrible, my wife hates it and she is a huge Prince fan. "Physical" was pretty cheesy, but ONJ will always be one of my faves; plus the video was pretty funny actually.
Say what you want about the music of the 1960s, but people were more open-minded about trying different kinds of music. On any given week, the Billboard charts were a mixed bag of rock, pop, instrumental, jazz, country, ballad, psychedelic, heavy metal, and on and on. What other decade had a Top 40 list that contained both Frank Sinatra and psychedelic band Iron Butterfly?
I had a Smart Mother. I'd just turned 22, when John Lennon said that the Beatles were more popular than Jesus Christ. I was shocked. We went to church every Sunday. My Mom said, "If the Beatles came to our town on Sunday, would you want to go to church? Or go see the Beatles??" I replied, "I'd rather go see the Beatles." I didn't worship the Beatles. It's just that, we went to church every Sunday, & we knew that God is with us every day. So yeah. I'd rather go see the Beatles. My Mom didn't get mad or scold me. She said, "That's all John Lennon meant,". 💗🕊️💗
I was almost 6 years old in early 1970 when Billboard announced that "Sugar, Sugar" was the number one song of 1969. My older brother threw a fit. Not even a mention, here? C'mon! At about the time "Feelings" was popular, "The Gong Show" had an episode where all the contestants sang the song. Only the first contestant was allowed to finish, so he won the episode. When the celebrity judges realized what was happening, they gonged all the remaining contestants on their first note.
I have a question. In the song "Brown Eyed Girl" by Van Morrison, he saw "you just the other day, my, how you have grown". Then he goes on with his memories of "making love behind the stadium to you, my BEG." But, she's GROWN since then?? How the he'll old WAS she back then if she's grown some. Creepy... Oh, and ZZ Top's "Francine just turned 13, she's my answer to a teenage queen!"
A song I despised in the 80’s was “on my own” by Patti Labelle and Micheal McDonald, two people I actually admire except this song. With lyrics like, “ Now we're up to talking divorce And we weren't even married” my husband I hated this stupid sappy ballad.
Why are people getting all bent out of shape about this video? These lists and rankings are all completely subjective. Some of his choices made me want to stand up and applaud, because I considered them pure crap when they came out, and still do today. Others I totally disagree with, because I like them. There's no arguing taste. Calling The Beatles one of the most hated music artists of the '60s is pretty much indefensible though.
"Cherish" by the Association is an okay song. "Spoiled Apple" by the Osmond Brothers was and still is a fun song. When you were listening to "Your Sixteen", it was aimed at young listeners who probably teenagers or twenty'somethings not thinking anything about the title and lyric "Your Sixteen". The melody kind of saves the song from the inappropriate topic of a 16-year old girl. "Video Killed the Radio Star" was also released by ex-Buggle member Bruce Woolley. It was actually a pretty good rendition. I was so enamoured with Olivia Newton-John that in my mind she could do no wrong. It took me the better part of a month to realize how bad "Physical" really was.
The three songs, “Video Killed the Radio Star”, “Mickey” and “Physical” made MTV, I wouldn’t place them as the worst of 80’s. The songs were cutting edge in the songs were successful in bridging music into video to create a whole new industry. The three songs were perfectly meshed into video, with one specifically written for such cutting edge crossover.
BTW, I watched the Looney tunes all the time and Speedy Gonzales wasn't even remotely racist,all you are doing is taking the lyrics out of context and putting your spin on it.
This sounds better than the shit somepeople call music to day. using the n word all the time and call women wh** just because they can and get others fired for just singing the along. Because they have the wrong color and are forbidden to sing it.
I remember 'Henry the VIII' by Herman's Hermits. drove me crazy. My sister played it over and over, I thought she was trying to torment me, but, no- it was just the only record she had
Every one of these songs are better than what the crap they're putting out nowadays especially rap and anything Taylor Swift puts out.

@@sammartinezduarte2639 I forgot about slow poke. Thanks for the reminder. 😁 I was pretty young when I watched them.
Gabriel Iglesias has a great stand up routine talking about speedy Gonzales on CZcams. I wish white liberals would stop being offended for everyone else.
I don't know who they polled for this list, but they aren't sources that I would respect.
I love the Osmonds. My aunt took my older sister and me to a concert at MTG in the early 70s…and it's a cherished memory! 💕
I meant MSG -- Madison Square Garden 😂
They're a Natural Icon! We owe a lot to them for helping our culture hold on to its innocence.
The Osmonds were not from the 60s. Get your information correct! They were actually from the 70s.
My 13 year old self loved them in the 70s.
The Osmonds were the Jackson 5's top bubble-gum competition before MJ went solo. I remember them both having their best happening from '69 to the the earliest '70's.
They both had Saturday morning cartoons on ABC (which worked well with the J5 song).
I love most of these songs!!! I don’t understand why Young girl” is so maligned when he is telling the girl, who apparently fooled him regarding her age, to stay away but nobody worries about Neil Diamond’s “You’ll be a woman soon” or Oingo Boingo’s “I love little girls”, Stray Cats’ “Sexy and 17” or the Beatles’ “You’re 16”
Also, there was/is NOTHING RACIST about Speedy Gonzalez and having been born and raised in Mexico I can tell you he was one of our favorites, and Pat Boone’s song was actually translated and covered by SEVERAL Mexican pop bands. I wish people who know nothing would stop speaking for us and erasing the things we love.
Songs hated by who exactly? This list does not seem to reflect any the opinion of any general group of people. It looks as if one person simply listed a bunch of stuff he doesn't like.
Likely a Gen Z 🤡 chose ones he hated because they were far better than the crap they inflict on OUR generation now.
Probably hated by Millenials and Gen Z.
How can you fault the singer of Young Girl for singing that song. He is telling the young girl to stop acting grown up and be a kid. Musicians always have young girls after them and a song telling them to be a kid is how a musician communicates with their fans.
I honestly thank God I grew up LONG before everyone looked for utter feltergarb to be permanently insulted and offended by. The world before 2000 was so much better off.
I do not agree with you on this topic. You should have done a poll before posting this one.
Each generation has their songs which weren’t meant for any other age group. Try comparing apples and oranges.
Things back then didn't mean the same thing they do now. They were innocent and not full of bad words and hate and stupid lyrics like we have now.
Innocent huh? Vietnam, race riots,... Yeah wonderful and innocent huh?
Totally agree Kim. Gen Z have a lot to answer for. Totally intalented and clueless about making music worth listening too. All woke salad crap. Not memorable whatsoever.
@@trance9158talking about music of those decades, not what was going on politically. And btw, WE in the UK did'nt have no part of your war with Vietnam. We were kids enjoying the music of our time. We never looked at newspapers or watched the news, our parents shielded us from war, we lived in relative peace here. These such matters were only discussed by our parents when we were asleep in bed at night. All we cared about was if our favourite singer or band was No. 1 in the charts and watch them perform on Top Of The Pops in the 60s and 70s, great music.
Enough of woke youtubers. Unsubscribing.
Yeesh, you can taste the salt coming from here! I get it, we get it but c'mon now. I'm an 80s baby myself and I grew up around that kind of music, watched TV shows that were a LOT more exciting than whatever we got nowadays. You may not like it but you got masses that grew up listening to that and didn't need to understand it.
These songs of the 70’s , 80’s, & 90’s were pretty great, although some of the 90’s music 🎵 were not as great 😊. Most of the 70’s,80’s songs I really enjoyed because I am from the era of music 🎶 of the 60’s&70’s. The song called “Feelings “ is one that I really like!! 😅😊❤💜😎🖤☮️🌈🦄🦋🇺🇸🇹🇨🏴🇬🇧. Thanks for the memories of those years back then!! 😂 42:38
I loved every song you hate! I'm a baby boomer, yu have to come from that era to appreciate " maybe not so much the lyrics" but the music is very memorable!! Many were happy and fun!
Same here. Baby boomer who knew good music when she heard it. Today's garbage is far from satisfactory, in fact it is abysmal compared to the great music we had. My kids were born in 70s and 80s and now in late 30s and 40s, they had their own musical tastes that were rooted in the mid 90s and upwards. Britpop, rock, indie, grunge, dance, each lad had his favourites. They were'nt interested in rap from what I could make out, usually turned it off when that come on, their choice entirely. No one can force someone to listen to something they don't like?
The ethos here is hatred. 😅
I love disco duck & still play it today lol Alot of these sings are good & my grandkids even like em today.
Your most hated songs. I and many disagree. Lighten up and laugh a bit because your generation seem to sit around and wait to complain about the smallest things like a cartoon.
I loved “Tip Toe Through the Tulips” when I was a toddler
Those songs and groups are what my generation grew up with . They are better than todays music .Whom ever you are that did this video , most likely you were not even born yet.
i don't like your commentary the most hated songs we liked them a lot. You have to put a bad spin on them. i guess you are to young to understand, we were changing the world back then.
He was being jerk on this one!
Too young to understand... (TOO!)
How were you "changing the world?" A pretty self serving thing to say, if you ask me.
I think some of the songs weren't that bad, but certainly Feelings, Afternoon Delight, Muskrat Love , and Kokomo are horrible.
Still, this Nick guy, the narrator, is an a-hole. Pretty mean spirited to call Toni Basil "Middle Aged".
@@danielmaher7108 we were young and thought we were
Ditto! At least our generation could sing and play music and sound the same in live. Way too negative . Still better than crap today.
They're Coming to Take Me Away HA HA...i loved that when i was a kid, knew all the words and i still have the album.😂
K-Tel Looney Tunes --24 of the greatest songs I ever heard when I was 10yrs old :)
Dr. Demento, anyone? 😂 👍 💯
@@suryadas6987YES!!
@@corinnepmorrison1854 Ma'am! (Tips hat) 🤠
These were good songs! So I guess you’re gonna defend the crap that’s out today. At least these songs were family, friendly, and the singers had talent. I’m sick and tired of this generation being so damn overly sensitive which I’m guessing the narrator is part of the generation.
It was about his DOG and for his DOG, hahaa
I think the words hate and hated mean something different these days.
Um… They’re Coming To Take Me Away is actually about a dog. Not a lover.
That’s what makes it comedy gold.
No, it's not. The obviously unhappy singer is calling his ex-lover a "mangy mutt" as he spirals into madness. Google it!
I agree!!
Toni Basil is from Las Vegas. I met her in the 80's after her Mickey. Before her parents passed away she's been living in France since the 80's. She's been in Elvis Presley movies. And she is doing choreography still.
@@constipatedinsincity4424 who is Toni Basil please?
@@kimgrattage6049
She is an amazing entertainer.
She danced with Davy Jones on 'Daddy's Song' in the Monkees' HEAD movie.
Yeah safe spaces didn't exist back then thus making an uptight-free time.
Is Pat Boone still alive?
Yep...90. Debby is 67.
"Yummy Yummy Yummy" is about oral sex. Members of the band gave an interview, saying that they wanted to see if they could get it past the censors. They made it sound so cheesy that censors ignored it. 🤣🤣🤣
Obviously done by someone that didn’t experience that era. Agree with some but there were definitely worse. How about Here Comes the Judge.and My Ding a Ling? Or possibly D.O.A…or The Archie’s and The Cowsills?
I did NOT like My Ding a Ling. They way overplayed that song when it came out
I still (to this very day) have Bloodrock 2, and everything else they recorded. There were 2 separate versions of the band, and both were great.
@@SmokeyGoodness I have the Bloodrock albums too and and like them. Arguably unique and groundbreaking at the time, so based on whatever criteria was used to compile this list could have been included. I disagree with many of the songs on the list.
Opinions are like A-Holes…everyone has one.
I disagree with almost all of this lol
This is a stupid way to kill time…🙄….and I’ll never get this time back.
Did I like all of these songs when they came out? No.
But then I’m not a CZcamsr trying to make money while whining about the pathetic nature of past popular culture music.
Note; you should take a look at some of the crap that comes out now.
Definitely NOT subscribing.
"Feelings" will always remind me of the Carol Burnett show. LOL
Hispanic or mexican not a race.
I loved most of these lol. C’mon, do u REALLY remember?? Bring back the 70’s and 80’s PLEASE! Some i wasn’t crazy about but one can’t like EVERYTHING.
I love Kokomo
Btw, people don't like a song based on the lyrics; they're barely aware of them.
They like a song because of the music- the beat, melody, etc, or the harmonies or sound of a singer's voice. Most people couldn't give a sh-t about lyrics.
Apparently your aim was to piss off as many viewers as possible. Obviously you were not born in the 60’s and didn’t research beyond the surface.
I can’t give a thumbs up and I gotta get rid of the video with only 1/4 of it played.
As a Jewish American and as Israeli as well. I love America and its people. Israel will give it's life for America.
Free Palestine
Thank you!! ❤️🇺🇸💝
Been there done that liked it
I don’t agree with your opinions !!!😡
All I got out of this is how screwed up perceptions are today. With a raciest here and there added in.
The 1960's and early 70's was really a different world. We didn't find hate everywhere like we do today. We didn't get all worked up over nothing like we do today. About the only thing we hated back then was the stupid War. We laughed at Tiny Tim and sure as hell didn't mind hearing it and there was a radio station called Dr. Demento that loved to play the crazy songs like "Their Coming to Take Me Away" and I'm looking over, my Dead dog Rover who I hit with a power mower" along with some Weird Al stuff.
Maybe we were all too stoned to let anything bother us and just get a laugh out of it.
In a way your reasons for bashing what was fun is part of what is going wrong with everything today and it's really sad.
They were obviously loved by millions, if not me, or we wouldn't know them and be discussing them now. I've grown to where I don't ask whether I like a song (especially an oldie hit), but rather why did it work on anyone?
Elvis once remarked if Harris had not recorded MacArthur Park, he would be in the studio recording the song.
I think Elvis would have nailed the song (and I'm a Beatles guy.)
Carrie Fisher was 22 years old when she filmed the "You're Sixteen" video. Songwriters aren't necessarily writing about themselves, or writing about the present. There's nothing in the lyrics to suggest the guy is older than here. It's a lot more likely the song is about two high school sweethearts who are the same age.
Was Sheb Wooley really concerned he'd be eaten by a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater, or do you think he thought it would be a catchy, successful song?
Toni Basil was THIRTY-EIGHT when she did "Hey Mickey"????
Criticize her all you want but wow I wish I could do a split like that at that age!!
Sorry, I’m Mexican and I do not find anything racist about Speedy Gonzales?
I hate this program I loved most of the bands and songs
We all have opinions and should respect them. Even when they are used to get views on CZcams. Lol
No
You did Tiny Tim twice in this video. Also, I can't stand to look at Captain from "Captain and Tennille". His eyes are disturbing.
The only thing I hate here is YOU making this video. It started with the thumbnail: Lindsey Buckingham, Stevie Nicks and Deborah Harry representing a 'most hated' list??? So I clicked and watched, only to find that none of these actually were on the list. That is a good thing, 'cause they sure don't belong on one. So that was merely clickbait, and sure enough I fell for it. But neither of the others belong on this list either. YOU may not like them, but others do. In the end I even clicked a thumb down, and made this comment. So I guess you achieved all your goals with this one. Shame on you.
Rupert Holmes also had a song titled answering machine, where he's playing phone tag with his girlfriend, he leaves her a message proposing.
Where to start? 1) You had to be there. This sounds like a most hated list by someone who didn't live through these decades. Not surprising as it sounds like a copy of many similar CZcams videos with many of the same songs - also by people who didn't live through these decades. Yes some fans didn't like "Revolution #9" for example but many others, such as my friends and I, found it one of the most interesting songs on an album that was full of filler songs. Also we listened to it over and over as we had to wait for the next Beatle release. We did not have the luxury of sitting down and listening to the entire Beatles catalogue at one time. Also bitching about "We Built This City" now ignores the fact that the B side had empty space where the local DJ could adlib the sections about their own city. It was fun listening to local DJ's trying to fill in your city. Now we just hear the pop single version. 2) Popular yet hated? If a song sold hundreds of thousands of copies at the time then clearly it wasn't hated by many. The fact that decades later we don't want to hear Girl or Physical is a reflection of both our changing times and not a reflection on the song or band when it was popular. 3) Overplayed. The reason that many of the 60's-80's songs are disliked by the current generation is that we've overplayed them to death. If I never hear another song from those decades then I'd be okay for that. If Directors would just stop using music from the last century in movies and tv shows. 4) Pop v.s. Rock v.s. Novelty. When you make this type of video, if you jump through various music genera then you are going to get poor reactions. Placing innocuous music like the Carpenters with novelty songs like Disco Duck with attempts at avante garde like Revolution #9 is just an easy and sloppy way of throwing together a video. 5) Old Stories. Like other videos, it falls back on old stories that don't matter anymore like the Monkees being a manufactured band. Of course they were and they fully agree having sung "Hey, hey we are the Monkees, you know we like to please, we're a manufactured image, with no philosophies..... You say we're manufactured. To that we all agree. So make your choice and we'll rejoice and never be free. Hey Hey we are the Monkees, We've said it all before. The money's in. We're made of tin. We're here to give you more." Many groups were manufactured such as obvious ones such as The Partridge Family but even groups like the Sex Pistols and Culture Club. To create this type of list you need to stick within a category of music or select criteria that can be used across categories.
Dude, you want to show top hated songs but you don’t play any of them. Not even a little good. Play at least 15/20 seconds of them. That’s pathetic man. Get it right so you can get descent comments
Those I agree with Totally
The script for this video may go down in history as the most absurd this ever written in the English language.
Genesis surprised me a bit. "Batdance" was actually terrible, my wife hates it and she is a huge Prince fan. "Physical" was pretty cheesy, but ONJ will always be one of my faves; plus the video was pretty funny actually.
Say what you want about the music of the 1960s, but people were more open-minded about trying different kinds of music.
On any given week, the Billboard charts were a mixed bag of rock, pop, instrumental, jazz, country, ballad, psychedelic, heavy metal, and on and on.
What other decade had a Top 40 list that contained both Frank Sinatra and psychedelic band Iron Butterfly?
Didn't get a lot of trim in High School, did we there Booboo?
I had a Smart Mother. I'd just turned 22, when John Lennon said that the Beatles were more popular than Jesus Christ. I was shocked. We went to church every Sunday.
My Mom said, "If the Beatles came to our town on Sunday, would you want to go to church? Or go see the Beatles??" I replied, "I'd rather go see the Beatles." I didn't worship the Beatles. It's just that, we went to church every Sunday, & we knew that God is with us every day. So yeah. I'd rather go see the Beatles.
My Mom didn't get mad or scold me. She said, "That's all John Lennon meant,". 💗🕊️💗
I was 12, not 22! (My Mother was only 30.)
I was twelve, Not 22. (My mother was 30)
I was almost 6 years old in early 1970 when Billboard announced that "Sugar, Sugar" was the number one song of 1969. My older brother threw a fit. Not even a mention, here? C'mon!
At about the time "Feelings" was popular, "The Gong Show" had an episode where all the contestants sang the song. Only the first contestant was allowed to finish, so he won the episode. When the celebrity judges realized what was happening, they gonged all the remaining contestants on their first note.
I loved the monkeys.🎉
Tip toe through the acid ! Tiny Tim!!
I have a question. In the song "Brown Eyed Girl" by Van Morrison, he saw "you just the other day, my, how you have grown". Then he goes on with his memories of "making love behind the stadium to you, my BEG." But, she's GROWN since then?? How the he'll old WAS she back then if she's grown some. Creepy...
Oh, and ZZ Top's "Francine just turned 13, she's my answer to a teenage queen!"
Aww, leave the Captain and Tenille alone. It was a sweet little song.
Dead Man's Curve song... Herman's Hermits group..
A song I despised in the 80’s was “on my own” by Patti Labelle and Micheal McDonald, two people I actually admire except this song. With lyrics like, “ Now we're up to talking divorce And we weren't even married” my husband I hated this stupid sappy ballad.
Why are people getting all bent out of shape about this video? These lists and rankings are all completely subjective. Some of his choices made me want to stand up and applaud, because I considered them pure crap when they came out, and still do today. Others I totally disagree with, because I like them. There's no arguing taste. Calling The Beatles one of the most hated music artists of the '60s is pretty much indefensible though.
"Cherish" by the Association is an okay song.
"Spoiled Apple" by the Osmond Brothers was and still is a fun song.
When you were listening to "Your Sixteen", it was aimed at young listeners who probably teenagers or twenty'somethings not thinking anything about the title and lyric "Your Sixteen". The melody kind of saves the song from the inappropriate topic of a 16-year old girl.
"Video Killed the Radio Star" was also released by ex-Buggle member Bruce Woolley. It was actually a pretty good rendition.
I was so enamoured with Olivia Newton-John that in my mind she could do no wrong. It took me the better part of a month to realize how bad "Physical" really was.
The three songs, “Video Killed the Radio Star”, “Mickey” and “Physical” made MTV, I wouldn’t place them as the worst of 80’s. The songs were cutting edge in the songs were successful in bridging music into video to create a whole new industry. The three songs were perfectly meshed into video, with one specifically written for such cutting edge crossover.
Better than all the trash being sung today
BTW, I watched the Looney tunes all the time and Speedy Gonzales wasn't even remotely racist,all you are doing is taking the lyrics out of context and putting your spin on it.
This sounds better than the shit somepeople call music to day. using the n word all the time and call women wh** just because they can and get others fired for just singing the along. Because they have the wrong color and are forbidden to sing it.
lot of personal hate from yourself about those songs.Some of them maybe diskutable about other times morals. But most are fine.
If anything, this was a friendly reminder of "Ey, remember that when you were young?" to revisit lots of songs.
I beg your pardon but wasn't even born in that era, and I actually love those songs ( except for of course the young girl) .
I remember 'Henry the VIII' by Herman's Hermits. drove me crazy. My sister played it over and over, I thought she was trying to torment me, but, no- it was just the only record she had
