What Songs Surprised You?

Tue Aug 17, 2004 10:35 am

Seeing as we have one for movies that disappointed you, movies that surprised you, what about songs?

Songs that even though they were by singers/groups you don't like, have grown on you.


Usher - Burn
Britany Spears - Everytime
Anastacia - Left Outside Alone
Blue - Breathe Easy
Jamelia - See it in a boys eyes
Avril Lavigne - My Happy Ending (apart from the part where she goes all high, and all those oh-oh oh-ohhhhh things she does o_O)

Toxic - Britney Spears.

That song, and Stronger, are the only two songs by her that I can stand to hear. (And the video for Toxic isn't bad, either ;) )

I hated Ugly Casanova when I first heard them.

Now I'm buried in them like a boy in a boy's first book of the stars.

Let's see...

Breakaway-Kelly Clarkson (now I've begun liking her again)
Hey Ya-Outkast (then I started liking them. :P)
Burn-Usher (I still don't like this guy)
I Don't Wanna Know-Mario Winans

There's more, but I always forget when I want to post. So...pfft.

Everytime- Britney Spears
Evanescence (I hated them when they first came out with 'Bring Me To Life but now I love them and that song)
Maybe- Emma Bunton
Numb- Linkin Park
My Happy Ending- Avril Lavigne
Don't Tell Me- Avril Lavigne

Those are the artists which I wasn't very fond of but I began to like some of those songs.

The only songs I can think of that's grown on me (as in, not liking it before, now I love it) are:

Breakaway- Kelly Clarkson. Didn't like the soft vocals at first, now I love it.

Don't Cry Out Loud- Diana DeGarmo. Same thing as Breakaway.

Franz Ferdinad-Take Me Out*
Modest Mouse- Float On*
Linkin Park-Faint
The Clarks- Shimmy Low*

I'm really starting to dig some of these "underdog" bands.

*Noted"underdog" with one of these things* :P

Linkin park?

CRAWWWWLLLING IN MYYYY SKIIIIINNN....

</ANGST/10>

>.> I wrote a song for linkin park, but they just ripped it off tons of times. It was something like...

'Everyone really sucks in my life, and I can't stop feeling the pain, so I'll

SCREEEEAAM FOOOR A BITTTTT

And then rap, cause it's cool, and I like to do dis, man

and maybe sing now about what I screamed about, but a bit more softly, so you may be touched by my song!'

.. Seems they liked the format, if nothing else.

Faint-Linkin Park(I remember I hated this song when it first came out)
Everybodys Fool-Evancense

See It In a Boys Eyes by Jamelia ain't half bad for a pop song. I won't admit to liking that though. :P

I didn't like "Golden Touch" by Razorlight the first time I heard it, but then I listened to it again, and really liked it. Now I kinda love them. The album is amazingly great. :D

Admit you like it or there'll be some post editing magic.

Cum On Feel The Noize - Queit Riot
It's a pretty good song.

Cherie's whole CD surprised me. The band was very loud in her songs at Clay's concert. But I'm glad I gave her a chance because she rocks.
