It doesn’t have to though. A band like sugar Ray or smashmouth gets a hit and they adapt their whole sound to it. Other bands like the Beatles and Hum say screw it and use the success of their pop hit to expose fans to more music they would have never heard otherwise.
I agree certain bands end up known for one song and that's all people want to be listen too like oasis with wonder wall or warrant with cherry pie it must be really repetitive for the bands
I’ve noticed a pattern when artists hate their own song: it can be because it’s overplayed on the radio and overshadows the rest of their catalog, because of how it came out, or because of personal reasons.
There was this band Warrant who wrote Cherry Pie, which we know is a disgusting song through and through for it's context. But, there was an interview I had watched that went over this hated song by their artists subject. The vocalist went on to say that ever since they've made that song and album, that became their entire identity. And I understand that angle, because as a creative musician or artist, you want to create and project things that are very close to your vision to show the world. And yet when you put out something you don't like, but everyone else loves, it may come across almost demeaning and insulting to your vision that people expect more of what you don't like to be made.
My biggest example is beastie boys fight for your right. It was written to make fun of the exact people who latched onto it and wanted them to only play it.
As someone who has seen Nine Inch Nails perform "Perfect Drug" live I can confirm that everyone goes nuts. I can see where Trent is coming from with it, but I still get pumped whenever I hear that song.
I've agree with Joe Elliott of Def Leppard he said something to the effect of If you don't want to play the same song over and over, don't write the song.
So long as you're gonna mention Weird Al ... 1) Constipation only made up a third of the context of his parody; in fact, he comes up with numerous words and phrases that rhyme with "complicated" ... and it's awesome! 2) Weird Al himself could make a list like this, as he hated "Girls Just Wanna Have Lunch" so much that he didn't include it on a treasury collection consisting of nothing but food-based parodies.
Weird Al didn't like _The Food Album_ in general. It was just a compilation option in Weird Al's Scotti Brothers contract, 'cause I think by 1993 that was SB's only reliable cash cow.
Neil Fallon from Clutch has a story where he was getting tired of playing Electric Worry every night & mentioned it to Lemmy, his response was something like "Do you know how many times we've played Ace of Spades?"
I’m always interested in hearing about the complex relationship artists have with their own iconic songs. The dissonance between Paramore’s original intent with “Misery Business” and its evolving public reception is as compelling as the musical tension in Guns N’ Roses’ “Sweet Child of Mine.” Similarly, Billy Joel’s unique structure in “We Didn’t Start the Fire” and Pete Townshend’s acoustic departure in “Pinball Wizard” reveal the dichotomy between artist intent and audience interpretation. Even if the artists themselves aren’t fans of these hits, each song is a rich field for musical analysis, highlighting the ever-changing dynamic between creation and reception.
Blind Guardian has been introducing Majesty at live shows as something along the lines of "that song that you love, and we hate, but we're here because of you people" since at least the late 90s.

@@DaleHusband That checks out, given the trend this video pointed out. Still, when the song goes from the guitar solo to the heavy part at the end... chills, everytime.
The fact that Billy Joel originally envisioned WDSTF as a country song makes a whole lot of sense considering what modern country has been like for the last several years.
Modern country is classic rock with more a twang. Sure. But then, there's some classic punk which emulates country... looking at you, Social Destortion. 😅
NIN performed Perfect Drug at Riot Fest last year It was my third time seeing them, but first time hearing them play the song live (alongside others like 'Burn' and 'Heresy')
And the reason why it hadn't been played for years is not Reznor's dislike, it's that the drum break is so fucking hard only a monster like Ilan Rubin can nail it.
I saw Nine Inch Nails in Cleveland at the show where they reunited with the 90's lineup and they did Burn, Heresy and The Perfect Drug too. Super sick.
@@VuotoPneumaNN That was my understanding too. I can imagine the conversation backstage one day. "Why don't we ever play The Perfect Drug?" "Because it's too fucking hard, it was never made for live drums." "Let me try it." *BOOM*
I saw Marcy’s playground a couple years ago and ooooh boy the venom was dripping when it came time to play Sex and Candy. The most sarcastic “and this is the song you’ve all been waiting for” was uttered with an eye roll that was heard around the venue.
I think Blues Traveler used to play, "Hook" as their 2nd or 3rd song, because they figured those who only came for that song would be bored with the rest of the set. Best to get them to go home so they could then perform for the real fans that liked the jams.
Gotta give Avril respect for that quote. I can understand hating a song that you wrote, but pushing through because the crowd enjoys it and you find gratification in that is awesome and shows great respect to the fans. Still hate her music though, the best thing was that Weird Al cover
Was at the Cuyahoga Falls show, in September, where NIN played Perfect Drug. It was the best concert I’ve ever seen. All members past and present played together
I seem to recall sometime around 2019 either Josh Farro (co writer/who the song is about) went on some new rants or old rants resurfaced that didn't show him in a good light. Hayley wasn't shy to shun him. That could've contributed to her not wanting to play Misery Buissness.
I remember once seeing Iron Maiden and they played mostly new songs and deep cuts. Bruce said "If you just want to hear the hits, go see a cover band". While I get what he was trying to say was that they were still making music and wanted to play those songs, I paid to hear "run to the Hills" and "The Trooper" which were absent from their set. Yet Dream Theater (opening band on that tour) basically just played their biggest songs ending with Pull Me Under which was sort of rare for them as they usually play a different set every night and try not to repeat the songs they played the last time in that city.
That’s unfortunate to hear, about Rainbow In The Dark. I’ve always loved that song. I’m really glad those master tapes weren’t destroyed. In fact, I was just listening to the Corey Taylor cover the other day.
Getting away from rock, several years ago on one of Barbra Streisand's live albums, she spoke to the audience about how bored she gets with some of her songs, having to sing them over and over again but she winds up doing it because of a personal experience she had back in the 1960s. She and some friends had gone to France and went to a Jacques Brel concert and she was so waiting to hear "Ne me quitte pas" (better known to the English-speaking world as "If You Go Away") because she loved the song. And he didn't sing it. And she said that stuck with her and it's the main reason she still sings "People" and "Evergreen" and "The Way We Were"--because she knows the people want to hear those songs. As an aside, I saw Heart in concert a couple of years ago and, yeah, I don't remember them playing "All I Wanna Do." I didn't mind it (it's an okay song but I don't even think it falls in my Top 30 favorite Heart songs--and considering they only had 20 Top 40 hits, that's saying something). I was so stoked they did play "Dog & Butterfly" (that's definitely one of my all-time favorite tracks).
This....made me feel so touched because I went to see my favorite band in 2022, and they didn't play any of my favorite songs (they don't have a lot of play, probably mostly only from me) and it made me feel a bit heartbroken waiting for any of my favorite songs to never play 😭
The Perfect Drug was a total shocker, that song is absolutely amazing. When an artist is pushed to create something expeditiously, you'll end up with something that's either really amazing or something that's so terrible they'll never want to speak of it ever again. In the studio you have as long as you want to create something you deem worthy of recording, though there are still deadlines to meet, they are much lengthier as making a good record takes time. During the writing process and extending into the recording process with music I think your project ends up in danger of losing the spark of creativity itself as your ideas tend to languish in your head or on paper for far too long and they're picked at and overanalyzed to death by yourself (primarily) and others until they no longer resemble the great idea you had in the first place. I think this has probably happened to every artist across the spectrum of the arts since the beginning of the arts themselves as it tends to be a pitfall that we all unwittingly trip into as it's human nature to seek perfection in one's endeavors. No musician, writer, painter or whoever wants to be known for a supposed magnum opus they constructed blindfolded which is what I think Trent is implying here with The Perfect Drug and I can see his point, but you can't deny that that song is a masterpiece which, I think, speaks volumes about Trent as a true talent.
There's another aspect to why Reznor hated The Perfect Drug. His original original vision for a follow up album to The Downward Spiral was going to go heavy into Drum and Bass. The Perfect Drug soured it for him so after his first stint in rehab, then the plot to kill himself fell through, he went back to the drawing board which led to what would eventually be The Fragile.
In addition to The Perfect Drug, Trent's not a big fan of The Fragile album---he was pretty much at a very low point during it (he had a very serious drug addiction and was close to suicidal) and he's said that listening to it brings back a lot of bad memories (and he doesn't feel it was his best work as a result of the demons he was fighting). I think it's pretty damn decent though overall! (Yeah, it's kind of hit and miss, but more the former).
This list is making me think of back in 2000 when I went to go see the Christian pop punk band Ghoti Hook play a show. The band was only playing stuff off their newest album and kids in the crowd kept asking for the standout tracks from their first album, and about 2/3 of the way through the show the singer stopped a song and lectured the crowd about how frustrating it is to be demanded to play songs they can't stand anymore when they have new music they're excited about. It was really awkward and off-putting and they broke up within the year I think.
I thought it was common knowledge that Pete wrote Pinball Wizard in part to ensure that rock critic Nic Cohn, a pinball fanatic, would give Tommy a good review.
Honestly the only thing tripping me up here is the AI voices reading off the quotes. It's definitely funny but it doesn't quite have that punch when people like Crash Thompson were reading off the quotes.
I can't remember if it was mentioned in the other video, but Joakim Broden of Sabaton isn't a big fan of Swedish Pagans. Although it's a thing where fans constantly ask for the song at live shows and he's tired of performing it everywhere.
I actually kind of feel for these artists a little often they have way better songs but normally the most catchy end up been the most popular so then they are basically stuck on repeat
Songs like "rainbow in the dark" off Dio's Holy Diver - I can empathise with John's retelling and I don't know "record label politics" but for me as someone who has seen quite a few songs played before recordings or before an album is out - I would wait to put it on a different album, I would think - why couldn't a legendary/ temporary b-side not be a larger scale success?
Pete Townshend wrote "Pinball Wizard" specifically to appeal to Nik Cohn, a UK music writer who was a massive pinball fan. And when you pay close attention to the lyrics of "All I Wanna To Is Make Love To You"... *shudder*
Paramore doesn't just play MizBiz occasionally now, it's one of the staples of their shows still. It's really weird too, because they said in 2018 right before their hiatus that they would stop, and then at their first show back at Austin City Limits 2022. they played it and Hayley covers her mouth at "once a whore, you're nothing more. I'm sorry that'll never change" and lets the crowd sing it and then gives a teasing scolding look. Happened at ACL, happened a Bonaroo, happened at my show. I don't think she hates the song, at least for that reason, but she just has a lot of hindsight.
Heh. I just commented yesterday that Dio wasn't an underrated singer in any way and that people more or less deify him. Thanks for proving me right. :)
Billy Joel's answer makes perfect sense. I was in a Country band in the 90's and we had to cover "Shameless" by Garth Brooks. As I was playing it, I was like, "hmmm, this seems to be the same exact chords as 'We Didn't Start the Fire' by Billy Joel." Well, Billy Joel DID write Shameless, and it was on the same album as "We Didn't Start the Fire". And out of the three songs, Garth did in the best.
Does Trent Reznor even count? He hates everything. I think part of his love of Einstürzende Neubauten comes from the desire to hit things and yell. (I'm saying this as someone who loves both, btw. Being hateful is an act of love in their case.)

"Weird Al is a treasure" - wiser words have never been spoken.
As the saying goes: All great stories involve Weird Al. Or is that pirates? I always mix them up.
“Constipated” is legit one of the funniest parodies he’s ever made. 😅
Yeah, that song is wild. It goes so far out there, I think it's called "A Complicated Song"
I read this as "Weird A I is a treasure" both are true. If Bardy is any indication of that lol
Yep.
That's actually one of my biggest fears as a musician. Making a song that defines you so well, you can never let it rest from the live tracklist.
It doesn’t have to though. A band like sugar Ray or smashmouth gets a hit and they adapt their whole sound to it. Other bands like the Beatles and Hum say screw it and use the success of their pop hit to expose fans to more music they would have never heard otherwise.

I heard that regarding Bob Geldof and his single, "Do They Know It's Christmas?" The funny thing was he remade it 30 years later.
That Lord Of The Rings Comparison with Rainbow In The Dark is pure accuracy.
Can you imagine writing a hit song that you grow to hate, yet the fans expect to hear it live.

Makes me sad that gojira doesn't like flying whales. Back when I was in a band, we covered that song and it was a blast to play!

Well as the old saying goes, “we are our own worst critics.”
Neil Fallon from Clutch has a story where he was getting tired of playing Electric Worry every night & mentioned it to Lemmy, his response was something like "Do you know how many times we've played Ace of Spades?"
Reznor hating "The Perfect Drug" is so weird to me. It's my favorite Nine Inch Nails song.
I wasn't aware that it was written and recorded in such a short period of time either. I think Trent works pretty well under pressure.
It's that drum solo, man. Hits me every time.
Great song and video
If you haven't seen/heard the mashup with Taylor Swift, it's so wrong it's right

Hey, Alan Cumming covered "Complicated " great cover. Highly recommend.
Constipated is one of my favourite Weird Al songs. Total genius.
I can see some of them, but Whales and Rainbow are so much fun that they can never go away.
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaales
Wow.... what is wrong with me that I love Flying Whales so much? lol
Yo next time tell Bardy to rank worst 90’s bands I just want see how it get out hands.
There's another aspect to why Reznor hated The Perfect Drug. His original original vision for a follow up album to The Downward Spiral was going to go heavy into Drum and Bass. The Perfect Drug soured it for him so after his first stint in rehab, then the plot to kill himself fell through, he went back to the drawing board which led to what would eventually be The Fragile.
Weird Al's version of _Complicated_ is far better than the original.
The verse about the tattoo on the narrator's cousin's thigh is the high point.
In addition to The Perfect Drug, Trent's not a big fan of The Fragile album---he was pretty much at a very low point during it (he had a very serious drug addiction and was close to suicidal) and he's said that listening to it brings back a lot of bad memories (and he doesn't feel it was his best work as a result of the demons he was fighting).

9:35 I knew this song more for being in a video game then a movie. It was in Hi-Fi Rush as the final boss theme.
I thought it was common knowledge that Pete wrote Pinball Wizard in part to ensure that rock critic Nic Cohn, a pinball fanatic, would give Tommy a good review.
i heard somewhere that a perfect drug was just him trying out a jungle beat thing because he heard it somewhere and thought it was cool idkk
Props for the better lovers shirt. Make an ETID video
shut up
Honestly the only thing tripping me up here is the AI voices reading off the quotes. It's definitely funny but it doesn't quite have that punch when people like Crash Thompson were reading off the quotes.
I like 👍 this videos !
I hope we get to see you review the new Dog Eat Dog album Free Radicals coming out in October.
Avril Lavigne was my celebrity crush when I was a teenager. Complicated is one of her best songs.
Losing Grip and Nobody's Home also along with everything from Under My Skin
@@lethybridtheorygolucastheo2191 Two great songs as well.
I can't remember if it was mentioned in the other video, but Joakim Broden of Sabaton isn't a big fan of Swedish Pagans. Although it's a thing where fans constantly ask for the song at live shows and he's tired of performing it everywhere.
BMTH hates Pray for plagues, despite every one wanting them to play it live...
I actually kind of feel for these artists a little often they have way better songs but normally the most catchy end up been the most popular so then they are basically stuck on repeat
I saw them play The Perfect Drug live and it was killer, there's a video of the drum solo on my channel
I'm surprised nobody mentioned Hi-Fi Rush in the comments.
Songs like "rainbow in the dark" off Dio's Holy Diver - I can empathise with John's retelling and I don't know "record label politics" but for me as someone who has seen quite a few songs played before recordings or before an album is out - I would wait to put it on a different album, I would think - why couldn't a legendary/ temporary b-side not be a larger scale success?
Pete Townshend wrote "Pinball Wizard" specifically to appeal to Nik Cohn, a UK music writer who was a massive pinball fan.
And when you pay close attention to the lyrics of "All I Wanna To Is Make Love To You"... *shudder*
7:21 Damn right! 😁
Paramore doesn't just play MizBiz occasionally now, it's one of the staples of their shows still. It's really weird too, because they said in 2018 right before their hiatus that they would stop, and then at their first show back at Austin City Limits 2022. they played it and Hayley covers her mouth at "once a whore, you're nothing more. I'm sorry that'll never change" and lets the crowd sing it and then gives a teasing scolding look. Happened at ACL, happened a Bonaroo, happened at my show. I don't think she hates the song, at least for that reason, but she just has a lot of hindsight.
Love your Better Lovers shirt! Sooo good!!
Love God Made Me An Animal!
Dio is not "metal royalty" he is a metal deity. IJS
No argument here.
Heh. I just commented yesterday that Dio wasn't an underrated singer in any way and that people more or less deify him. Thanks for proving me right. :)
Wow, Ronnie hated more Dio songs than I do. He'd legitimately be my desert island artist
Mmm! Love Hello Fresh 😊
It's funny that you mention Weird Al, because he hates "Girls Just Wanna Have Lunch".
Appetite For Destruction is one of my favorite albums of all time. But I do skip Sweet child all the time. I don’t like it either.
I’m SO suprised Corey Taylor dislikes wait and bleed.
Mostly because of overplay (it’s in many cases their most popular song) or just personal reasons
Oh man that quote from Corey Taylor was an absolute treat XDXDXDXDXDXDXDXD
Noel Gallagher hates Sunday Morning Call from oasis’ 2000 album Standing on The Shoulder of Giants. I think is ok
@@christopherbingham5092 no that's Liam
About to see Gojira live at Azura amphitheater. Always loved Flying Whales so im curious now if they will play it or not.
They are great live!
@RockedNet saw them live when they were touring with Metallica and lamb of God no argument there gojira is really good live
I've seen Gojira 4 times over the last 15 years and they played it every single time.
Seen them in Prague two months back and they are still playing it. They don't even skip the intro.
Overall, fantastic show!
JUST SAW GOJIRA, THEY PLAYED FLYING WHALES AND IT WAS GREAT
Rainbow In The Dark is one of my favorite songs, so hearing that Dio hates it is really shocking to me
Dio has been dead for over 13 years.
Should of had Nirvana on here, Kurt Cobain didn't like Smells Like Teen Spirit
That was on the first video.
Townsend wrote it because an executive loved pinball.
Paramore choosing to not play Misery Business made me really not like them as a band for a while.
I wonder if you'll do albums that bands aren't really proud of, next. There is probably a few videos to get from that.
Did that a few years ago.
That hurt my soul knowing Slash hated Sweet child of mine!! That’s my fave song to sing at karaoke! Kinda can’t blame em tho.
Correct me if I’m wrong but didn’t Fat Mike from NOFX hate Linoleum?
They did retire it a couple years ago so i wonder if they're playing it on their farewell tour now
Billy Joel's answer makes perfect sense. I was in a Country band in the 90's and we had to cover "Shameless" by Garth Brooks. As I was playing it, I was like, "hmmm, this seems to be the same exact chords as 'We Didn't Start the Fire' by Billy Joel." Well, Billy Joel DID write Shameless, and it was on the same album as "We Didn't Start the Fire". And out of the three songs, Garth did in the best.
Wait and Bleed reminds my of that era where a lot certain bands had to have "radio clean songs" to air. What a bullshit concept 🤣
Joakim Brodén of Sabaton doesn't like Swedish Pagans
Not digging the AI readings. If you don't want to do it, there's plenty of voice actors out there who would do it in a heartbeat.
Looks delicious 😋
❤😂🎉🎉🎉
GO NAVY SEALS 🇺🇲 NOSTROVIA ☦️🌎🌠
I agree with Heart and Billy Joel, never liked either of those songs, especially the Heart song.
Korn-All in the Family, Daddy
I've heard that Blink-182, Tom DeLonge in particular, doesn't like All The Small Things or First Date. Can't say I blame him honestly.
Will Bardy return?
I've always had a theory that GnR hated Sweet Child O' Mine because they know damn well they didn't write it. Then it became their biggest hit.
I've never heard that theory, elaborate.
@@colerieger7300 Look up the song “Unpublished Critics” by Australian Crawl. It was released in 1981.
They did write it. Aexl said he wrote it as a poem to his then girlfriend Erin Everly.
Does Trent Reznor even count? He hates everything. I think part of his love of Einstürzende Neubauten comes from the desire to hit things and yell. (I'm saying this as someone who loves both, btw. Being hateful is an act of love in their case.)
You know me, I hate EVERYONE
I don’t know is holy diver really that deep? It’s a power metal album. Rainbow in the dark isn’t poppier than anything else on that record.
