Songs that remind you of a WET FLANNEL

[Ellie]

i don’t actually mind the bridge, but the chorus and the outro are too sickeningly twee

Can I down vote this more than once?

It’s like SUMMER

 

[funky]

The problem with most of these singers is that they stick to the pop scale as though one blue note would open up the ground and send them to hell.

I need just a little bit of the blues scale in there. It doesn’t need to be Stevie Wonder, just mix it up a bit loves!

That’s just my preference though. Melodies that bounce around the keyboard missing every blue note just sound like nursery rhymes to me.

The shittest summer since records began.

Funky am curious, how do you feel about this one?

I love this!! I actually bought the Cd single of it too.

 

[Marina Salty]

I love this!! I actually bought the Cd single of it too.

Me too, but also loved everything on the SHITE list

Some of the songs in this thread are only available in the UK on YouTube - not due to copyright but because they're considered torture under EU law.

Now we've had both Bunton and Nurding I have nothing to add. Possibly the one from Atomic Kitten who covered Woman In Love. They can all hold a tune, but have the most lifeless, dreary vocals.

 

[octophone]

I'll tell you who served up some suprisingly weak sauce a few times: George Harrison. This is the musical equivalent of airbrushing. Sold well in the US.

Clapton's Wonderful Tonight really grinds my gears in terms of tedious middle aged man rock.

 

[Diddy]

I have to Google what a blue note is now, I only know the black and white ones

Clapton's Wonderful Tonight really grinds my gears in terms of tedious middle aged man rock.

And the Damage version was even worse.

If you weren’t aware that existed or had wiped it from your memory, I sincerely apologise.

Just call me BEETHOVEN

[Kratz]

Scandalous!

I think this is evidence (if was needed) that she can actually sing

 

[Kratz]

Imagine THIS being your final single...oh wait

It’s still scandalous and you just know Bradford’s answer to Elaine Paige had a hand in it, considering the suspiciously large amount of lead vocal she has.

 

[Kratz]

At Christmaaaaaaassssss….zzzzzz

Siobhan clearly looking for the nearest toilet window to make her escape.

I quite like this one!

Not saying she can’t sing, saying the song is a wet flannel.

 

[ButterTart]

Every Beach Boys song falls into this category for me. Just so watery and insipid.

 

[Rita]

Scandalous!

I think you mean SCANDAL’US and don’t even GO THERE with this masterpiece.

#ASFM CLASSIC

 

[Tetris-Rock]

I've been doing a bunch of NOW! That's What I Call Music album clip quizzes on Sporcle while i've been ill and came across this again. Proper WET.

 

[vespertine]

 

[Marina Salty]

Amar Pelos Dois

 

[Pipo]

Unremarkable, DISREMEMBERED, unloved

This mild cheddar white bread sandwich (with no CRUSTS) is an OBVIOUS STARTING POINT

I mean, YES, but I raise you this



Basically a lot of what this bitch has done

 

[Kratz]

I mean, YES, but I raise you this



Basically a lot of what this bitch has done

Throw in ‘We’re Not Gonna Sleep Tonight’ where she tries to be baaaad

 

[funky]

Basically every Emma Bunton song is a wet flannel, let's be clear. Her voice is like boiled water gone cold.

 

[POP!]

Aka the worst Kylie song ever recorded ish

 

[Devil]

Basically every Emma Bunton song is a wet flannel, let's be clear. Her voice is like boiled water gone cold.

’Maybe’ begs to differ.

I was going to list a few more, but even the good ones good be accused of being a little wet

 

[Diddy]

Imagine THIS being your final single...oh wait

This doubly reminds me of a wet flannel. Firstly because it’s boring and rubbish, and secondly because of the bit about washing your face in a basin

 

[Marina Salty]

All i can think after listening to this is what words would rhyme with bidet

 

[Diddy]

Do you pronounce it like BEE DAY, or b’DAY?

 

[Marina Salty]

In greek I use none, so it's just bide, we don't add the ee sound in the end.
In english am adding the ee sound cause for some reason it's always there when words are french ie touché becomes too-shay, toupee becomes too-pay and so on.

 

[Dark Carnival]

Lorde’s new album.

I guess the only different is the start of the word. I’ll wait for someone to tell me anyway, I come from a family where my sister used to say TORLET instead of toilet until kids are school laughed at her

 

[Dark Carnival]

English speakers butchering the accent aigu should go down as a war crime.

 

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

Emma Bunton really is the queen of the WET FLANNEL isn't she?
We're Not Gonna Sleep Tonight is the whatsapp group anthem for a girls night out that NOBODY WANTS TO ATTEND!




"Spoons is a bit boring, wish I was on sofa in jimjams with you babe x"
