Songs where I like only one part

Here is some songs where I only liked one part and the whole rest of the song is weird to me:

Whitney Houston - How Will I Know: I hate the last chorus because of the key switch and it ruine the song

The Police - So Lonely: Only the first half is good, the second half is weird and totally different, like 2 différents songs stuck together to make only one

Mike Oldfield ft. Maggie Reilly - Moonlight Shadow: Long bridge without last chorus

The Animals - Loose Change: Only the two first verses are good

Naive New Beaters - Love Good: Only the intro and the 2 first verses are good

Kombinaciya - Russian Girls: Only the intro and the outro are good

Delroy Wilson: Run Run: Only the intro and the outro are good. Thanks to Madcon who saved me with their song "Let It Be Known" which samples the intro of "Run Run" by Delroy Wilson and loops it the whole song

George Duke - I Love You More: Only the intro riff is good

Perry Como - Papa Loves Mambo: Only the cuivre intro is good

Slayer - Raining Blood: Only the riff intro is good + too long outro

Sparky Deathcap - September: Too random end

The Emotions - Best of My Love: Weird end

Gary Numan - M.E.: Only the intro is good

What are the instrumentals songs that you think wound be better with lyrics/singing ?

Are there any instrumental songs that you wish had lyrics/singing because, for example, there are parts that you find long and empty, or it sounds like there used to have lyrics/singing but they were replaced by an instrument that imitates them, and it sounds sweird ? For me, here are three instrumental tracks that I would have preferred to have lyrics (this is just my personal opinion, you may very well think they’re perfect as they are):

Harold Faltermeyer - Axel F: Too longs empty parts

Da Hool - Meet Her At The Love Parade (The original version): Too longs empty parts

Pigbag - Papa’s Got a Brand New Pigbag: sounds like it used to have lyrics/singing but they were replaced by an instrument that imitates them in my opinion

What are some songs that you've were wrong about when they were released your whole life and were shocked when you discovered their real release dates ?

Are there any songs where you’ve been wrong your whole life about when they were released and were shocked when you discovered their real release dates ? For example, songs you thought your whole life they were released in 2010s while they were released in ’90s ? For me, having been born in 2006, here are 5 songs I’ve been wrong about their release dates my whole life, and I was shocked to discover their actual release dates:

Robbie Williams - Supreme: I always thought it was a 2010's song while it was released in 2000

Beck - Loser: Sound so much like 2014 song while it was released in 1993. Even the music video looks like a 2010s video

George Thorogood & The Destroyers: I always thought it was a 50's Rock 'n' Roll song while it was released in 1982

The Animals - House of The Rising Sun: Sound so modern to the point to think that it's a post 2000 song while it was released in 1964

Harry Nillson - One: I always thought it was a 2010's pop song while it was released in 1968

[TOMT] [Song] Sax riff stuck in my head but I can't remember anything alse

I have a sax riff stuck in my head but impossible to figure out. I can't remember anything at all. It's impossible for me to tell when it came out, although I think it was released after 2010 but I'm not really sure. I can't remember what genre this song is, although I think it's electro or pop/dance pop but I'm not really sure. I can't remember if there is lyrics. I can only remember the sax riff and all I can do is to put a recording where I reproduced in comments below 👇👇👇

One hit wonders artists whose their only hit is a cover on a previous song

Today I want to talk about artists whose only major chart success came from performing a cover version of an earlier song.

What are some unrelated songs you've always confused together your whole life before to discover they were actually two different songs ?

Are there two or more songs that you’ve always confused together, as if they were one and the same song until one day you came across each of them separately and discovered they were two different songs, while you always thought your whole life that they were one and the same song ? Not songs where one samples the other (direct sample or interpolation (indirect sample)), or where one is a cover of the other or a case of plagiarism. I’m talking about songs that are truly unrelated but may have a very similar style or vibe or even share a common source of inspiration. For me, here 3 "vs" of 2 songs I always confused together before to discover one day they were 2 differents songs:

MGMT - Kids vs White Town - Your Woman

Foo Fighters - Everlong vs The Smashing Pumpkins - 1979

Eminem - Lose Yourself vs Led Zeppelin - Kashmir

[TOMT] [Song] Song with femalse singer who sing "Lalala", then transition on a cat doing "Meoweoweoweow"

Some yraes ago, I've seen a meme video at multiples times in which, we have a song in a similar style and vibe to "I Will Always Love You" by Whitney Houston. In the song, we have a few instrumental secondes and then, a female singer sing "Lalala" and right after that, there's a transition to a video of a cat doing "Meoweoweoweow". The "Meoweoweoweow" is similar to the "Meoweoweoweow" from the song "Please Go Away" by The Kiffness but without music behind it. If I'm here, it means that I want to find this song but sadly, today, I can't find the meme anymore. I can just make a vocaroo where I sing the "Lalala" and the "Meoweoweoweow". The vocaroo is in the comment below
