It's still one of my all-time favourite songs.

 

[Instinct Blues]

high today i was driving my mom to work after i dropped her off my ipod refused to work so i turned on my radio. when this came on <youtube=fLexgOxsZu0> and within the first few seconds i knew i would really like this song. so has this ever happened to you?

Thats funny I had the exact opposite reaction to that song.

OT: For me I have a few songs.

The Unicorns- Who Will Cut Our Hair When We're Gone? is one album where I can say without a doubt that I love every single song on it. Its just a whirlwind of catchy riffs and awesome lyrics that are fun to sing along too even if you have no idea what you're saying.

Also these songs

Spoiler: Cults- Go Outside

Spoiler: Coma Cinema- You (Your Fears)

Spoiler: The Strokes- Trying Your Luck

Theres plenty more where that came from, but I couldn't be bothered to post all of them.

 

[Laser Priest]

OP just so happens to have picked a song I hated within the first few seconds of hearing it.

This, I love.

 

[TeeBs]

99% of what I like. If I don't like it the first time I probably won't give it a second chance, the only band that broke this rule is Radiohead, but I hear that happens alot with that band.

 

[babinro]

We the Kings - Check Yes Juliet
Boston - More than a Feeling
Eminem - Till I Collapse
Knaan - ABC's
Oasis - Whatever
Sum 41 - Walking Disaster
Something Corporate - Konstantine
Relient K - Who I am Hates who I've Been
