Listening to this piece of crap has brought to mind the bands/singers I used to like but don't care for anymore. Since the OP says I can bitch about stuff like that, I feel I may as well do so.

AC/DC

I really loved "Thunderstruck" when I was a kid, so the idea that I liked AC/DC seeped into my brain and settled there for a long, only dislodging late in my teenage years when I came to the conclusion that their lyrics are almost never about anything other than partying and women and other pointless shit and that Brian Johnson sounds like a hoarse cat coughing up a hairball.

Van Halen

I don't care for Van Halen for one of the same reasons I don't care for AC/DC anymore -- shitty subject matter. I do still think David Lee Roth and Sammy Hagar are pretty good singers, though.

Bryan Adams

I love his stuff from the '80s and most probably always will, but I can't stand most of his '90s+ material anymore. '80s Bryan was obviously fueled by youthful energy in his early years and couldn't continue going that route forever, but instead of evolving when he got older -- becoming more introspective and exploratory -- he stagnanted, choosing to settle into a rut and churn out nothing but insipid, uninspired re-writes of "Kids Wanna Rock" and "Heaven" for the rest of his days.

Lenny Kravitz

Kravitz is the black Bryan Adams; awesome in the beginning, he proved to be a one trick pony incapable of any real progression. That he chooses to collaborate with talentless fucks like Dreck ... opps, I meant Drake ... certainly doesn't help any.
