Songs I Don't Want To Like

For the past oh, 3 days or so, I have had the song "Red Solo Cup" by Toby Keith stuck in my head.  I attribute this to a cousin singing it at the family Christmas party this weekend.  Trouble is - I don't like country music and I really have something against Toby Keith because of a horrible incident at pub trivia a few years back.  So I have two solid reasons not to like this song, but damn it if it's everything I can do to not download it off iTunes.  So this got me thinking about all the songs I don't want to like but do.

1) Red Solo Cup - Toby Keith
It's a cardinal sin to shout an answer out loud at trivia, but I accidentally did this one night (after a few Black & Tans) and the answer was 'Toby Keith".  This indiscretion has haunted my for years.

2) Anything by Lady Gaga
I am not usually a pop music kinda person.  But damn that woman is talented - creepy outfits not standing.

3) All I Want For Christmas Is You - Mariah Carey
It's WAY too over played on all the holiday music stations but each time it comes on in the car, I find myself singing along.  Of course, this is only when I am alone in the car, as I would never subject anyone to my singing.

4) Anything by Kanye West
The dude is a huge douche but in along the same vein as Lady Gaga, I can't get past his talent when it comes to music.

5) Neutron Star Collision - Muse
Not so much because I don't like Muse (I think they are great) but because I inadvertently heard this song off an ad for a Twilight movie.  (((shudder)))

6) Milkshake by Kelis
Horrible song that I have ridiculously fond memories of from one time driving down the 405 with my mom and two of her coworkers.

7) Incomplete by The Backstreet Boys
I feel like I am cheating on NKOTB every time I listen to this song.

8) All The Things She Said by T.A.T.U.
You remember this song - I know you do.  It was by those faux Russian lesbians.  Enough said.

9) Du Hast by Rammstein
It's angry.  It's German.  And it reminds me of high school.

10) Goodbye Stranger by Supertramp
Because of this song I now have the entire "Best of Supertramp" on my computer.  Drinking and downloading is a dangerous thing.

And perhaps the most popular (I bet you all know it/have sung it/own it) song of all time:

11) I Will Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That)
The lyrics make no sense.  The music video is uber-confusing.  But when I die this is going on my funeral mix list.
