Default Songs you hate but others love

I thought I'd start a thread about this because of my eternal hate for Stop Draggin' My Heart Around. IMO, it's her worst duet with Tom Petty, hell, I think it's her worst duet period. I'm not sure where my distaste for this song came from, but I'd rather listen to Welcome to the Room...Sara for 7 hours on repeat than listen to SDMHA once

Well now that my little rant is over, does anyone else have songs that are generally well-liked that they personally can not stand?

Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You

I don't accept it as a concept. Writing songs for people is uncommon, so the thought of some poor person who has no song written about them is not going to bring a tear to my eye.

"Greta"... most people seem to love this song or at least like it, but like most of Street Angel, i find it to be very boring and lackluster..

I don't like that one either I still don't know what she was thinking, letting Jon Bon Jovi write a song for her.... or maybe what he was thinking when he wrote: "Well I've run through rainbows and castles of candy..."

The killer for me is 'That Made Me Stronger' , not sure how many people like this one, but I guess Stevie is allowed to have a few duds every now and then but we still love her regardless!

I don't think she means just "a song", she means "anything", (a poem, a letter, a verse in a card, a sentence, anything, hense the title "Has Anyone Ever Written ANYTHING for You".

And when she say's:
Well, I have
I have given that to you
If it's all I ever do
This is your song

For Stevie, of course, it would be in a song, but I also think the word "song" is a metaphor for anything that is written.

At least that's what I take from it.

Well, I don't hate hate it, but in comparison to how much so many others love it, I'd have to say Sara.
