    Pretty much everything in the UK top 10 week in week out :)

    If you want something a little more specific Enter Sandman - Metallica. Love the band but this song never has done anything for me.

    Smells Like Teen Spirit. I really think Nirvana was a great band but I don't think this is one of their better songs.

    Listened to it the other day and i've always liked the baseline to that track.

    Nirvana...*Smells Like Teen Spirit*

    London Calling by the Clash is another one. Take that song at face value and it's really not that good.
