Own songs the artist/band didn’t like

  1. The Goonies ‘R’ Good Enough - Cyndi Lauper

She hated it from the beginning. Originally titled just “Good Enough” the studio made her change the title for marketing purposes. She refused to play it live from 1987 until 2004 when she finally gave in to fan pressure.

“My least favorite is Material Girl. I never, ever want to hear it again!” From here:

  3. Tai Shan - RUSH

“In the past, Geddy described “Tai Shan” as “an error,” saying that the guys “should have known better.” Back in 2016, Alex Lifeson said the song is “easily” “one of the worst” songs the band has released.”

Quoth Michael Stipe: “It was a hit but none of us are particularly fond of it… It’s a song primarily written for children.”

  5. Sister Disco - Pete Townshend

"Sister Disco’ I hate even more than ‘Dreaming From The Waist’ because there is a point in which every time we’ve done it where Roger comes over to me, stands next to me and makes some kind of soppy smile, which is supposed to communicate some kind of Everly Brothers relationship we have…that will be the moment where I look him in the face and go ‘you fucking wanker’ and he gets angry when I do that”

  9. Strangers In The Night - Frank Sinatra

Apparently he called the song often a “piece of crap”. According to Joe Smith, from Warner-Reprise, he thought it was a song about “two fags in a bar”. But here’s old blue eyes himself talking about it:

“Yeah here’s a song that I can not stand. I just can not stand this song, but what the hell.” (1975-11-27, Jerusalem, Israel)

*“The worst fucking song I’ve ever heard.” *(29-08-1982, Dominican Republic)

“Here’s a song, the first time I heard Don Costa played it for me some years ago. I hated it! I hated this goddamn song the first I’ve heard it. And I still hate it! So sue me, shoot bullets through me. Shoot.” (New York Set, Cd 4)
