Symphony No. 9. Aka Ode to Joy by LVB


djseifer

It's weird seeing Beethoven's name abbreviated like that. Makes him sound like a member of the Wu-Tang Clan or something.


MyThermostat

I read it as Luth Vader Binsberg


SnakeHandlersHands

Nintendo Wii home screen background music.


GhostiiB00

This and the Kahoot Theme


CatsEatGrass

Duhh boop-boop, duhhhh boop-boop, duhhhh boop-boop da-ba-dut-dut. . .


elementzn30

I think you might mean the Wii Shop theme? The Home Screen theme isn’t too special, really. But the Wii Store song slaps.


gnomzy123

Nah. Wii Sports one is the real banger


Starscream_9190

That’s my ringtone!


glowybutterfly

You'll never get everyone to agree on something like this.


Rogang4thewin

I challenge that theory! Mr blue sky


brazil2112

Brilliant tune.... Took me way too many years to appreciate it


Angry_Maths_Guy

I would agree but it is used in a lottery tv ad that is so overplayed that I now hate the song


RaphaelSolo

I dunno, Bohemian Rhapsody might actually take this one.


WisconsinBadger414

Bohemian Rhapsody is one of the very few songs I cannot stand. Super annoying. Sorry man


HaydenSpargo

Not a bad song but I definitely think it’s overrated. I like Don’t Stop Me Now a lot better


dbx999

I found it overly cluttered, random, thematically a patchworky mess, and gratuitously long


Grand-Ad970

I hate that song so bad


WisconsinBadger414

Same


SilkyJohnson666

Words can’t express how much I hate hearing that song. Especially in public.

Proud to say that songs my birthday and damn do I enjoy it every time it comes on


StockingDummy

I'm a September baby myself. Unfortunately, my birthday is associated with a terrorist and a rich piece of shit (no connection between the two.)


the-Cheshire_Kat

This is every pet bird's favorite song. Mine loves it! You've got the parrot vote locked down.

ComplexPants

Never finish on debussy. Always finish on Bach.


Snowstick21

Ain’t no sunshine - Bill Withers


Gooch_Rogers

Stand By Me - Ben E. King


CyptidProductions

It's one of those songs that was so ahead of it's time in production, structure, and using a bass/percussion based instrumental in a dreamy way that most people would assume it was recorded in 1982 rather than 1962 It really is amazing as a piece of music because it's almost like proto-synthpop before synthesizers were really even a thing outside of early experimental machines


Alexr9les218

this one might actually be true, the rest are all just Queen songs


quitofilms

Does part of a song count? The opening to Under Pressure, the first two measures. In that moment, it is almost Schrodinger's Song. You have to wait that extra moment to either have good memories or bad memories. The chances of hating one song is reasonable but the chances of hating both songs? You have two measures of "Ah yeah!" and then....elation or sadness But for those two measures, I would say that yeah, everyone is on the same page


caseyh72

Same goes for Werewolves of London by Warren Zevon and All Summer Long by Kid Rock. If you’re in the mood for some beef chow mein, you might not want to hear about summertime in Detroit.


quitofilms

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y4lOlydXPGQ&ab_channel=RHINO https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5zBEdDgA_0k&ab_channel=bobsquatch Ooph, that would be heartbreaking to hear Kid Rock start singing


Gamecrazy721

No you see, theirs goes "du du du dudu du dut; du du du dudu du dut. du du du dudu du dut..." and ours goes "du du du dudu du dut; du du du dudu du dut; *du* du du du dudu du dut..." it's completely different


No-Sir-7962

I like both songs. 😌

mittens11111

If you are referring to the Gershwin masterpiece I'll upvote, been a favourite since childhood (my Dad had a Porgy and Bess LP). Probably non PC now.


KnotDealer

That song reminds me of a rather unpleasant experience I’ve had, effectively giving me a panic attack any time I hear it.


sixpackshaker

Well, he hated it.


SoulSearcher1311

This is my go to song in ketamine therapy and when I tell you I’ve been in the middle of New York City at Christmas time with Louis himself singing this to me … it’s my own private concert

“Somewhere over the Rainbow” by Israel Kamakawiwoʻole


Jonjoloe

I dislike this song, but I also live in Hawaii and this song has been so overplayed in touristy areas. I know people who also dislike this song and it’s because they don’t appreciate him changing the lyrics and are fans of the original. All this said, I acknowledge this is a very popular song and I don’t dislike Braddah Iz’s music as a whole.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Jonjoloe

He definitely is, and for good reason. He has several other very popular songs you’ll hear here. It’s also not *his fault* that some tourists have associated *Somewhere Over the Rainbow* with Hawaii and the ukulele. Most people here I imagine have positive attitudes toward that song. I just know several that don’t, myself included. Edit: I also don’t speak for everyone here, so maybe I’m wrong because I’m just going off anecdotal evidence.


greencloud7

This is the first song that came to mind

“Sitting on the dock of the bay”


pithster

I think this song might actually be perfect, if such a thing is possible. Wonder what it was like to hear Otis play it live.


weaselwhipper_26

He never performed it live. He died a couple of days after laying down the vocal tracks in the studio. [https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/inside-otis-reddings-final-masterpiece-sittin-on-the-dock-of-the-bay-122170/](https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/inside-otis-reddings-final-masterpiece-sittin-on-the-dock-of-the-bay-122170/)


Thorazine_Queen

In addition to this, the whistling at the end of the song was a place saver for what was suppose to be lyrics. He died before he finished the song. They left the whistling in it.


ResplendentShade

Only 26 when he died. He had such an incredible career ahead of him, what a tragedy. My favorite male singer of all time.

Steven King's the stand in the opening few minutes set that song in my head permanently...masterful use of it in my opinion..


tangentrification

The SNL skit is funny, but I kinda wish this song never became a meme, because it's genuinely so good but you can't ever talk about it without getting 50 replies about the damn cowbell.


pithster

But it needs more cowbell.


SnowBorn6339

I cannot imagine why ANYONE would hate these songs: -Don’t Dream it’s Over by Crowded House -Just the Two of Us by Grover Washington -Midnight Train to Georgia by Gladys Knight & The Pips


SkyCole123

just the two of us just hits different… and don’t get me STARTED on that steel drum solo

Don’t Dream It’s Over is my favorite song of all time.

Just the drum break and pick up tho. It's really a long build that I actually would not like if I didn't know it was coming. "But I remember, don't worry!"


smashy_smashy

Last summer a motorcycle rode by my house while I was outside doing some work BLASTING that song perfectly just as the drum break came on. I lost my fucking shit and got down so hard. As things settled down, my neighbor across the street saw the whole thing and has the biggest fucking smile as I turned bright red. Good times.

_Here Comes the Sun_ by the Beatles.


Doofzig

See, personal experiences can skew this answer. I used to like the Beatles and especially this song. Until 20 years ago a radio station was changing formats and name to sunny somrthing, and they played this song on repeat for like 3 days. So I listened until it ended. But now I despise this done. Is it my fault. Yes. Do I still hate the song? Yes.


anotherhawaiianshirt

This can be said by someone for probably any piece of music imaginable. In that case, it would likely be impossible to name any song that literally everyone can agree with. I would also argue that there's a difference between personally liking a song and agreeing it's a great song. There are songs out there that I recognize as great, but which I don't particularly care to listen to.
