Until Fred's remake, I couldn't STAND 'This is the day'.  >:(

Now, I ONLY like Fred's version. 8)

"The Old Rugged Cross"

When I was young I attended a church that would sing this every week...all versus...and they drug it out so terrible, that I would be nodding off while standing by the end of the song...lol

When I was little, I'd occasionally be forced to go with my grandma to church.  She went to one of those ol' Baptist churches like the ones the comedians make fun of, with Dr. Rev'um DoRight.  Dude had a Jeri Curl too I think.

Anyway, it seemed like everytime I went there some old dude would fire up this hymn that sounded like some sort of death march...

He'd be like "HH-IIIIIIIAAAAAAAYA KNOW DA LAWW'T, HE WEELLL AN'SA PRAYYAYAYAYAYAAAAAAA" and the rest of the congregation would join in moaning a slow-motion version of what he just said, one syllable at a time, each syllable lasting like a full 10 seconds at least...

HHiiiiiii-IIIIIIIIIIIIIII-AAAAAHHHHYAAAAAHHH...
(deep breath)
NNN-KNOOOOUUUUUUUUUUU-uw-WUUUUUUUHAAAAA
(deep breath)
Da'AAAAAHHHHHHHHH
(deep breath)
LA-HAAAAAAaaaAAAaaaAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWD
(deep breath)
WEEEEEEEEEE-uuuuuuuuuhhh-EEEEUHYUHHHHHHHHHHHLLLL...

...and so on and so on.  And there were MULTIPLE "verses" of this "song".  Good LORD that was ETERNITY for a kid.  They all sounded like the dead unearthed itself.  And I just sat there like "WHAT THE HAM SAMMICH?!?"

Well, that's how it played out in my young mind anyway.  I know someone in here knows exactly what I'm talkin' about.

I also got tired of that Shirley Caesar track (I say track cuz it wasn't really a song) about Shoutin' John... well, not so much that I was sick of the track, but moreso that I was sick of every ninja that ever listened to it talkin' about "HOL' MAH MULE!! HOL' MAH MULE!!"  Made me wanna tell them to shaddap and saddown.

I can't stand a lot of Quartet songs because they all sound the same. Same progressions, same words, same everything!

I have a few exceptions myself, the Mighty Clouds being one. But MANY of them are annoying at times. Maybe it's because I live in the south...home of the DEEP Baptist Church and therefore home of every Quartet known (and some unknown) to man.  :-\

"Rough Side Of The Mountain"

"Struggling & Strainin"

"Because Of Who You Are" (only cuz it was being oversung)

"I Will Trust In The Lord" (again cuz of oversinging)

Most of Keith "Wonderboy" songs

That's all I can think of right now.
