Are you wearing an asbestos suit? You do NOT want to tick off rabid Zepheads.

How about that gem "Ebony and Ivory". BTW some of the songs on that list aren't that bad.

I'd have to add a few (hundred):

"We Built This City (on Rock'n'Roll)" - Starship

"We Didn't Start the Fire" - Billy Joel

"Uptown Girl" - Billy Joel

"Wild Boys" - Duran Duran

I always hated that Sting song.. I don't know the name but it went, "doo doo doo doo da da da, that's all I want to say to you"

Blech!

You named it: "De Doo Doo Doo, De Da Da Da" is the title. It's the Police (pre-solo career).

I like that song. Other than the chorus, it has great lyrics:

Poets, priests and politicians
Have words to thank for their positions

I can't stand that song by Barry Manalow, "Cola Balunka", I think it was. "Lola?" Whatever. Half-blocked from the pained memories. Ar...rg!

And I got sick of "Achy-Breaky Heart".

Sax solos would be good torture in 'Abu Grab'

Stairway to Heavan is ok by me. I love that album. Battle of Evermore was great. And Kashmire is one of my favorites. FReegards....

The only Billy Joel song I like is the one where he sings "a bottle of red, a bottle of white, it all depends on your apetite..."

I'd agree.. if it's the Dolly Parton one.. and the one done with banjos and tuba is pretty bad..

Check out April Winchill's website for a ton of Stairway to Heaven covers. http://www.aprilwinchell.com/multimedia/ Then scroll down..

I like Stairway. It's not their best song. And it really wasn't a "hit" in the strictest sense of the word. I don't think it was ever a Top 40 single. It's now a standard on Classic Rock stations, of course.

Well, er, "Afternoon Delight" is a pleasant little ditty. You gotta love the underlying premis.

I'm not sure The Macerana constitutes as a "hit song" but I heard that stupid, stupid, stupid song at more weddings than I care to remember.

Not sure what's worse the song or that idiotic dance.
