With Don’t Stop Me Now, you’ve got to bear in mind that Freddie wrote the song during his most “out of control” period, which was likely the time which ultimately killed him. The song likely represents the death of their friend to the rest of Queen, so it’s understandable why they dislike it so much.

[@tinfoilhatmaninspace4944]

The songs from Queen in the mid - late 80's were a lot less Wreckless sounding and far more tender and emotional . I agree Don't stop me now is one of the worst Queen tracks and it's also one of their most overplayed and loved by the moronic general public . If you're unfortunate enough to have to sit through UK talent / reality shows you'll heat that it is one of the biggest most performed track by Queen , Hate it ,even worse than WWRY or WATC or CLTCL . Bohemian Rhapsody , Killer Queen and Somebody to love are played and performed a hell of a lot but that hasn't effected the quality of those tracks .

[@Saimeren]

Amy Lee also hates Bring me to life because the record label forced them to have a guy sing on the album. They wanted a rapper on the song, and Amy fought over it and they nearly cancelled the recording time they had with the label. They eventually decided to go through with it, but Amy wanted to have heavy input on what and how this guy is used on the track. They eventually settled on what we hear on the album, but Amy hates it to it's core. I guess she performs it live quite often without the male vocals at all, even though her guitarist performs that part from time to time. She refuses to do it the way the record label wanted her to, saying they were too pushy and it put a bad taste in her mouth when they tried to curb her creativity and writing talents. The only reason she even does the male vocals half the time is because she knows that's the version her fans know, and she doesn't want to disappoint them. It's a massive hit for them, and to leave out a key role in one of the fan's favourite songs doesn't do the fans justice. She also does a full piano version of the song live from time to time. (Without the heavy guitars)

[@MrStephen182]

The guy is called Paul from a band called 12 stones and he is not a rapper as he has never raped in this band 12 Stones. Did not Amy not know Paul before she was in Evanescence? I thought they they both meet sometime when they were younger due to both being Christians. Sure I read that. Anyway 12 Stones rock, go listen then if you have not.

[@Saimeren]

@@MrStephen182 Not according to the story she tells. The way she tells the whole story, is that it was some random dude assigned by the record label, and Amy almost quit because of it. She, and the band at the time then realized they were being stupid to just walk out on such a big contract, that they went for it, but Amy fought to have the guy's part be what it is. It was originally supposed to be a significantly larger role in the song. Amy got it down to what it is now. Just some dude going "Yeah!" "Wake me up!" "Ohh!"

[@aspenmontgomery409]

@@MrStephen182 She and Ben Moody first met at a Christian camp of some kind when they were teens which was the origin of what would become Evanescence... Moody wrote My Immortal. I've never heard that she knew Paul prior... just that when they told the label to shove it and went home refusing to hire a permanent male vocalist for the band which is what they initially mandated. Eventually they compromised agreeing to it for only the 1st song release.

[@trs5127]

Ehh. I disagree with that. The dynamic between whoever the guy is and Amy's voice, especially in the bridge, is one of the reasons it makes the song so good.

12 Stones isn't too terrible, not great, but listenable. But man, the delivery and composition of the male vocals on that track fucking sucks.

"Escape" is really not a bad song! Metallica has a lot of songs later in their career that are a lot worse than escape.

[@joelcastro-reyes1667]

Well Metallica barely plays anything from Load and Reload anymore apart from Fuel (which is by far the best song of that era). They never play St. Anger either cuz I'm sure they don't think it exists anymore (apart from that awesome All Within My Hands acoustic remake). So it says something that Escape is left out from their early discography

[@meboyotube]

Huge Radiohead fan. I like "creep" as a stand alone song but it doesn't match the entire body of work the band has created. I think the issue is: if you only know Creep it gives you a false idea of the kind of music you can expect from the band. So buying the album based on Creep would be disappointing. It's so different from the deeper and moody stuff they are known for (in spite of the lyrics). It's almost like a different band. Its still a good song though... but i get it.

[@chrismouton1985]

Lemmy hated playing the Ace of Spades, but he understood why it was expected at the shows. He mentioned in one interview that he would expect other bands to play their famous songs, so he understood why the audience wanted it. Guess that's the price of fame?

[@twinsuns957]

Apparently if I remember rightly, Radiohead's label basically forced them to re-record Creep cause the label wanted Pablo Honey to have a big hit single, instead of just letting Creep be the slow, thoughtful, stripped down song that the band originally intended it to be. Hence why Thom says the iconic line "You're so fuckin' special" on the original album version and hence why Jonny is literally thrashing the living shit out of his guitar, because they were basically venting their anger and frustration at being forced to release a hit when they didn't want to, little did they know that their frustration would make the track into the alt-rock classic that it is today. I mean occasionally I have gotten a bit bored of the song if I've heard it too many times and I'm not afraid to admit that it is very overplayed, but overall I do love Creep and it is one of the best songs of the 90s by far, however I can definitely understand why the band distanced themselves from it for seven years due to their label trying to push them to shift units instead of just writing experimental, genre blurring music that appeals more to the indie crowd than the casual listeners like they have done more and more in recent years.

Losing my Religion is written as an "unrequited love song" and not very religious at all, but try telling that to my dad or myself. He was having a crisis and that song was the soundtrack. Shiny Happy People, in this context, become a song about trying to be ok when you very much couldn't be. I still miss-sing the lyric as "...put her in the ground where the flowers grow" and change all the hims to her. "There's no time to cry. Happy, happy. Put her in your heart, where tomorrow shines."

A lot of this is the radio and labels' faults. They see music as a product for making money but not as an artist expressing themselves or something they would like to keep as part of their portfolio. It also sucks that some of these songs are the only song of theirs that gets radio airplay because they know how weak it is compared to everything else the artist has done.

[@artry93]

Alex_flamer. I agree. In the UK I can't understand how much of the sellouts (advertising and paid sponsored) and self pretentious of UK radio called Capital FM (include their cringe/overblowing/ "Wannabe" Influencer hipster radio hosts) and I'm in their age group. And they used Spotify's repeated playlist technical and other long term UK radio's technical before the radio arrived in 2017 and their Justin Bieber hentai musics repeated (not just Bieber but other musicians included the same "popular" tracks from them) to death in January to February this year (2020) and pointless talking to each other about celebrities Instagram's announced attached to their news sometime. So that my workplace included my colleagues can listen to them in their area when they are making food preparation (I worked in the secondary school/sixth form's catering area as kitchen Porter since 2018) and also some local shops would played Capital FM or other UK radio. Despite, their music have been repeated in the past hours in a days, weeks and months. Thankfully, I don't need to listen to Radio (included their advertising) in my house.

I know that Metallica have always hated the song Escape, but I thought Enter Sandman would have been the song they hated the most. I remember back in the early 2000's before Jason Newstead left the band that the fans could vote for any Metallica song and Metallica would perform it on some VH1 awards show. James Hetfield went out of his way and told the fans to be creative and not to vote for Enter Sandman. Fade To Black ended up winning the vote which is a great Metallica MASTERPIECE. That was also the last time Jason Newstead performed with Metallica as a member of the band. He has said in an interview that he knew that was going to be the last time he would perform with Metallica as a band member and that is why he waved goodbye himself on the goodbye part of Fade To Black.

My two cents: being a teenager in the 80's was difficult for some. To live in that glorious decade and not be able to get some of the perks of it, could be very hurtful. For some, party properly was an almost impossible task, as well as having a decent social life. That's why "Fight for your rights..." and "Escape" are two songs with an actually meaningful insight. Maybe the Beastie Boys and Metallica members forgot they were teenagers once.

I've thought about this a lot. A lot of people dream of being a rock star or a star in another genre of music. It looks like such an ideal life. You get to be creative, make lots of money, have lots of sex, get a lot of respect, etc. You may or may not get those things. However, it doesn't matter how good your music is. If you're playing the same songs night after night month after month year after year, and sometimes decade after decade, it's got to get really monotonous. Plus, hopefully, as a human, you've grown in those years. Imagine being stuck playing something you created when you were like 19, but now you're 50. You're not that same person anymore. Your mind has moved on, yet you've got to keep on playing old stuff, further identifying yourself with all that old stuff. For every up, there's a down.

[@caifabe8050]

"My Immortal" has actually been re-recorded twice. The version on the album is the demo from Origin remixed with strings (the version Amy talks about in the interview clip). The recording in the music video is the version recorded during the Fallen sessions that the band WANTED on the album, but was declined by the label in favor of the demo (but later included as a hidden track after "Whisper" on later pressings of the album from 2004 onward). The Synthesis version was released in 2017 and the only original member left on the track is Amy.

"To Live is to Die" writer described "Escape" as a Bon Jovi-ish single. It didn't help James Hetfield despising the frontman. That was back in the 80s. Hopefully time heals all wounds, but I don't expect these two great bands sharing the same stage -- at least in my lifetime. (Cliff Burton might be laughing somewhere.) Sorry, Oasis. "Wonderwall" is my introduction song to your band. "My Immortal" has been associated as an alternate eulogy/grieving theme, especially in early 2000s. I remember a WWE vignette showing wrestling personalities who passed on in 2003 and the song was used as background track. Locally, singing "My Way" (Frank Sinatra) in a videoke shop could cost that intrepid singer's life. In guitar shops, playing "Stairway to Heaven" even in snippets is a taboo. Expect to be vehemently admonished by the owner or personnel. "Creep" was parodied by a local band. The tweaked lyrics was about a Chinese bun (called "siopao") with no filling. "Smells Like Teen Spirit" popularized Teen Spirit (I prefer "Old Spice"). Sorry Kurt, but it remains Nirvana's signature hit and grunge's ultimate anthem that crashes/assaulted musical norms at the time. To get out and not to be defined by one song (even it made members rich and famous in an instant) is understandable, though. As for the others, glad to learn. Those despised songs can be a flagship single by today's (lazy and no talent) artists. Pardon the litany.

Makes sense. They were forced to spitball that song because the label wanted another track and it wasn't part of their original vision for the album.

[@Romanticideitzcoatl]

Balance I suppose.

Nohrian Scum Yeah but I’d think he’d like it less since it had that song on it, he also criticized some aspects of the album like the use of reverb.

Grocery stores? I remember as a kid when my mom and I would ride elevators. She'd tell me when she recognized a song being piped in as one her dad's favorites. I always associated elevator music with being old. The last time I rode an elevator... They were playing The Offspring... I realized I was old. And my lord. All the radio stations playing music from the 70s, 80s, and 90s that call themselves Classic Rock or Oldies. QQ
