Apparently U2 are the greatest band in the world but i can barely tolerate them, besides a few songs. Same goes for The Beatles and Led Zep. I know their shit is good and maybe they are as good as everyone says but why? why the fuck do these bands deserve so much hype?

    I really want to like Radiohead but I just can't get into them for whatever reason. I give them a shot every few months but I can't seem to make it click for me. Same goes for Arcade Fire. U2 is good but I don't really dig them either.
    I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

    Johnny Cash... he's so boring, he has the same fucking songs over and over... yeah, I get it, there's a railroad coming... JUST FUCKING GET OUT OF THE WAY THEN, SHIT!!!!!!

    Bob Dylan... same thing... it's like I'm hearing the exact same C G C E chords over and over again... yeah, you're stories are pretty cool, but I need music to go with it to, otherwise, I'm just listening to some man read me a story.

    Radiohead... I used to love them, but recently, I just can't really get into them as much as I used to.
    If I could, think I would give in.

    Apparently Kings of Leon and My Morning Jacket.

    if you cant get into radiohead, then why is your location a radiohead song? or is that unintentional?

    Dunno if you know this song, but it might actually fit the bill, the music is wicked, well I think it is anyway:

    I suppose I should like Neil Young, but...I just don't.
    And I HATE the White Stripes. Everyone I know loves them, and I just can't stand them.
