Songs You Like By Bands You Don't Like
« on: 26 June, 2008, 02:12:56 am »

Every once in a while, there's an exception to the rule. For example...

I wouldn't be caught dead listening to Grand Funk Railroad, but just willingly paid for an MP3 of "I'm Your Captain (Closer to Home)."  :-[

I don't generally like the Rolling Stones, but Paint It Black is one of my favorite songs.

etc.

Anybody else?

Snow Patrol featuring Martha Wainwright - Set fire to the third bar.

Not keen on either of them but it's a cracking song.

All I Want To Do Is Rock - Travis.

Normally hideously dull, whiny, Coldplay-lite, but I this one I do quite like

Surely Coldplay should be Travis-heavy since Travis have been around a lot longer :)
I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that.
