Is there a universally loved song?

[Slumbag]

Like, a song everyone likes?
I think Bohemian Rhapsody is a song that everyone will listen to, and enjoy.

I was thinking American Pie by Don McLean, too.

[TooLowBrow]

everyone sings along to the beatles 'hey jew'

[hedges]

the Jim Croce song about the Edmund Fitzgerald ship

[CruelCircus]

The universally loved Jim Croce song is "Bad, Bad Leroy Brown."

The Edmund Fitzgerald song is by Gordon Lightfoot.

Can't be.
My roomate hates every AC/DC song imagineable. We've been forcing him to listen to that shit for years, and he hates it.

For some reason, at 1:00 am in every bar I have ever been "Friends in Low Places" is pretty popular..but then again I have never been to a bar on Uranus, or any other planet in the universe for that matter.

He may be a terrorist.

Why not throw in Neil Diamond's Sweet Caroline for the "jukebox douchebag trifecta"?

When I was into my clubbing days long, long ago, the one song that would bring EVERYONE out dancing was Jump Around by House of Pain. No matter what race, age, the freaks and the "straights", that dance floor would be packed.

[CountryBob]

"Hey - Hey Baby" - cousin told me that over in Germany at Octoberfest they played this song every hour and everybody sang the hook. They also played alot of David Hasslehoff tunes. Uggghh!

[epo]

I've long thought that AC/DC's "Big Balls" is the perfect universal bar song....so I'll go with that one.

[styckx]

Always a classic in my book and universally liked.

I never met anyone who didn't like Prince's "Little Red Corvette."

And honestly, I wouldn't want to.

[kdubya]

When I was living in Northern Minnesota, anytime the Charlie Danniels song "The Devil went down to Georgia" came on people went nuts.

[hammersavage]

Everyone rolls their eyes when 'Don't Stop Believin' comes on but I defy you to not sing along.

[OGC]

Happy Birthday.

How could you not like a song that after you sing it, you get cake and ice cream ?

[drusilla]

Everyone rolls their eyes when 'Don't Stop Believin' comes on but I defy you to not sing along.

& the soprano's really helped bring it to other generations & those who may have not been so big on 80's rock anthems.

[hammersavage]

Exactly. Multiple generations have experienced that song as popular. And again, I defy you to fake hate/secretly enjoy it.

[Edwin]

"September" by Earth, Wind, and Fire or "Don't Stop Til You Get Enough" by Michael Jackson.

[lleeder]

I was thinking American Pie by Don McLean, too.

I hate both of those. So long and boring at this point.

[Gvac]

Agreed. They don't make enough booze to allow me to tolerate American Pie.

[Doogie]

I'm gonna go with the most covered song in history: "Yesterday"

And for more local reference I will say with much regret, "Piano Man."

[Jughead]

Yea... waiting for a girl like you..Ya know hello its me was special for me and the mrs...

[grlNIN]

I Wanna Be Sedated or Blitzkrieg Bop

Nope, hate the Ramones.

You're forgetting about Betty Davis Eyes.

[Slumbag]

I actually got the idea for the thread from this song. I thought everyone liked it, but some too cool for the room motherfuckers had to shoot it down.

[fezident]

Seriously.... "Stay" by Lisa Loeb.

I've done hundreds of acoustic shows over the years. Every single time I start that song, people react to it. I don't know why but, it's a constant.


Oh, and "My Girl".

Perfect, catchy, not too long. Rock but have a hook. Perfect.

[drusilla]

Blister in the Sun

[Coach]

The Happy Birthday Song?
Although I think the owners of the rights to the song are universally hated for demanding to be be paid for it being used in public presentations.

[drusilla]

Then get out of here
