This is the reason oldies stations play so much Neil Diamond. He's very popular w/women and women are the demo most sponsors are trying to reach (they presumably do most of the household shopping)

Rush is not universally popular, in fact, I think 75%+ of the general population hates them.

I love them, but Rush doesn't fit this category.

Even songs off of Pyromania


I was neutral to it when it came out. Never was a big fan. I liked Photograph at first, but radio ruined that. Something about Elliott's voice gets on my nerves.

I like Dust in the Wind, but the rest of your list is good.

Not necessarily universal, but as an LSU fan, Callin Baton Rouge and Bitch I'm from Louisiana are both garbage fricking songs. Stop playing it in the stadium every 10 minutes.

Another thread just reminded me how much I dislike Heart.. So, I'll say Barracuda...

I could fill pages with the popular stuff I don't like, but I'll stop here..

I may be able to get on board with Bohemian Rhapsody or some Journey songs but, the other two are awesome.

Delp's vocals on More Than a Feeling are other worldly.

Sweet Caroline For the love of God please stop playing this song so much.
American Pie is pure crap. Sentimental pretentious name dropping pablum.

Someone mentioned We Built This City, which is terrible, but i feel like that is universally hated although it does get way too much air time.
