From me, I have two to lay on you.

I hate Dust in the Wind. Nothing matters because we are all just dust in the wind. Yes, fine, dude but then why bother writing the fucking song? Just to depress the rest of us?

And that song about drinkin' whiskey from the bottle never thinking bout tomarra singin Sweet Home Alabama aaaallll summer long. It's in my husband's workout playlist and despite being vaguely hooky it's just such utter slop.

(I will say though that the same playlist convinced me AC DC are not nearly as bad as I remembered. Whole Lotta Rosie is a jam, and also It's a Long Way to the Top is pretty good)

That whiskey song is Kid Rock... gross. Anyways, Pat Finnerty did a great video on why that song is objectively shit. Worth a watch to get a little bit of that rage out through shared suffering.

There was a radio station Live 105 and this was early 90s, they played Dust in the Wind on repeat for an entire weekend, until someone called in to cancel it for the hour. At the start of the next hour more Dust in the Wind.
