Songs or acts you liked once, but can't stand now.

Lady Gaga for me. Wow, she had a lot of potential, didn't she? I was rooting for her, five years ago.

Now when her songs come up on my playlists set at random, man I can't wait to skip to the next song. Especially her last album. It's really stuff I never need hear again.

Peter Hook. Nice band name buddy, real original. You left New Order and now you see "The Light"; keep playing Joy Division songs because obviously those are the only songs that have real feeling.

Probably Maroon 5, although I still like them.

I don't like Michael Jackson after 1993-1994. Depeche Mode after Walking in my shoes. The Cure after Wish album. Phil Collins/Genesis after Both side of story. There are a lot of bands. Duran Duran sometimes make good songs, but not very often.

I honestly can't think of any just now. I guess I'm just too good a judge of music to like something that's not actually any good. ;)

I used to like Depeche Mode, but have lost complete interest in them since Precious - the last single I rated. Royksopp have also become distant to me over the years.

Dubstar had a really good debut, Disgraceful, and then lived up to the name.

As a child, I was obsessed with Gary Numan. Then he turned Tory - but not before he turned crap.

I quite liked some of the first Hurts album - trying to focus on the music rather than the image - but then they turned into a Muse pastiche for Hitler Youth.

On the flipside, Saint Etienne managed to rekindle my flagging admiration with a few tracks from their most recent albums.

I used to, and still love, David Sylvian/Japan (Life In Tokyo until their split), but his increasingly masturbatory doodlings after drove me away. None of the other solo offerings interested me enough to pursue them, so I don't know if they were any good - Rain Tree Crow bored me. I like pop, what can I say.

No matter how experimental David Bowie was he always returned to pop and he knew was made a fab pop single - not to be an excerpt from a larger piece. This is what I particularly like about the Pet Shop Boys; no matter where their artistic leanings go, they always return to pop in the end.

Easy one this, loved Madonna in the 80s most of the 90s, really can't stand her now, more on her that her music i suppose.

Queen.

Can't believe I used to listen to them when I was a teenager. Utter garbage.
