[Dixielandjazz] Songs one hates.

hi all

my input on this topic (for what its worth:)  is this.....

the songs that i "hate" are usually songs that I have been forced to play a 
million times.  no matter how good a song is, it gets tired after a while.

but sometimes, after a long break, i can enjoy that song again. so my list 
of "most hated " tunes does change with time.  and also my "favorites" list 
does vary over time.

there's my two cents :)
