99% of music ends up getting worn out when you have had music on throughout your life. There would be very little to say in the Love category if I didn't think of more than just how I feel about it today a gazillion listenings later.

 

Instead of finding relevance to group them in 3's 10/10/10

 

The Eagles

 

Love: King of Hollywood

Love: Hotel California

Love: Too Many Hands

Love Already Gone

Love: Lyin' Eyes

Love: Wasted Days

Love: One Of These Nights

Love: I Can't Tell You Why

Love: Seven Bridges Road

Love: Witchy Woman

 

Like: Peaceful Easy Feeling

Like: On The Border

Like: Desperado

Like: Please Come Home For Christmas (even though it rips off The Beatles Oh Darling)

Like: Outlaw Man

Like: Tequila Sunrise

Like: Victim Of Love

Like: Those Shoes

Like: Take It To The Limit

Like: New Kid In Town

 

Hate: In The City

Hate: Take It Easy

Hate: Life In The Fast Lane

Hate: James Dean

Hate: Get Over It

Hate: Heartache Tonight

Hate: Saturday Night

Hate: The Long Run

Hate: In The City

Hate: All Night Long

The fact there's a Highway To Hell and only a Stairway To Heaven says a lot about anticipated traffic numbers

 

People only say "It's a free country" when they're doing something shitty-Demetri Martin

Oooh them's fightin' words as Out of the Blue is a desert island record for me :)  So are a couple others including Time.  J/K no fighting.  Ironically while I'd Time arguably my favorite album of maybe, well all time, the only song I don't really care for on it is the single Hold on Tight.  The rest of the album is a synth-fest.

Anyway, my contribution is from a gigging player's standpoint and not so much a listener.

Neil Diamond
Love - N/A
Like - N/A (I honestly can't recall hardly any of his tunes)
Hate with the heat of 1000 suns - Sweet Caroline    (but there's no doubt people go apeshit over it so we play it upon request)

Can you find some sympathy for Red Red Wine or I'm A Believer?

 

Cheers, Mike.

I absolutely loathe the singalong thing people do on this song - the song itself I could take or leave

America

Love - Ventura Highway

Like - Tin Man

Hate - Magic

 

 

I finally found one I would have listed the same way. The song You Can Do Magic is not that bad if you imagine Dewey Bunnell singing it instead of Gerry Beckley. Beckley's vocals always sound nasally to me but it works for backing vocal harmonies behind Bunnell.

 

Russ Ballard wrote Magic. Ballard also wrote what I feel is Three Dog Night's best song Liar.

 

 

Three Dog Night

 

Love: Liar

Like: One

Hate: Eli's Coming

Hate - Can't Fight This Feeling (I was going to pick something else for variety but I simply can't not list that song lol)

The Cars

Love: Moving In Stereo

Like: Dangerous Type

Hate: You Might Think (The sheer fact that Weezer covered this one completely killed it for me.  I suppose I could just ignore that mess and stick with the original, though.)
