    ooh ooh ooh... I thought of another one... which one is the "Yodie Yodie! Knee Slap Knee Slap" song? Whoever wrote/sings that song should be brutally murdered.

    edit: after consulting wtih the blagonet it might be ron's suggestion- "The Jitterbug Stroll".... any confirmations guys?

    That song has a special place in my heart, as I was jamming to guru years before I started dancing. However, I definitely agree it's way overplayed.

    I also dont like most Rockabilly. If I hear a Rockabilly song come on I will choose to sit that one out. Also Elvis [Emoticon not found] Elvis makes me want to steal the strings off the nearest bass and hang myself!!!

    Wow. I had no idea everyone was so bitter about these songs.

    Songs that I do or don't like mostly depend on the day and my mood, personally. Although the Shim Sham song needs to die. Thank you for pointing that out, ElChuy. And Old MacDonald needs to be played much less often, since it's one value is the novelty of Old MacDonald being a swing song.

    But for the most part, if it's playing, I'll dance to anything.

    Whoo-hoooo!!!! I'm no longer a Newbie!!!! Thank you, Powers That Be!!!!!! Let all rejoice on this happy, happy day!

    Okay, I'll put in my two cents. Yes, I agree with most everyone's dislike of previously mentioned songs. To add to that, there is this swing-version medley of the Nutcracker Suite that I dread hearing every Christmas season. In fact, I hate all medleys!

    I hate fast music. Anything over 140bpm is way too fast. How could anybody call that dancing? It's more like just flailing around.

    If we're gonna say we 'hate' an entire genre, we better understand what we're hating a bit. I have a major connection with rockabilly. Swing was the punk rock for the 20-30-40s youngsters. The 50s kids needed something to call their own. The young Elvis Presley and others like Jerry Lee Lewis and Chuck Berry (Jerry Lee said Chuck was the true King of Rock 'n' Roll) were combining swing, country, and blues (all pure american sounds) to create high energy, danceable music. Roll Over Beethoven is one of my faves. [/hijack :p]

    The important thing to remember here is that I said "I hate rockabilly" not "everyone should hate rockibilly" Im allowed to hate what I want to and you are allowed to play music you like and try and get me to dance to it.

    Sixteen Tons. I used to enjoy it-- mainly on Joe vs. the Volcano-- but now I'm really sick of it.

    BTW, hepkat, I don't know who does the Nutcracker suite medley. I just know I hate it.
