8 Songs that have been ruined by overplaying

Posted on by Kip Hakes

3 – Valerie – Mark Ronson feat. Amy Winehouse

Valerie started life as a song on The Zuton’s fantastic album Tired of Hanging Around in 2006, in 2007 Mark Ronson rearranged it with a stonking vocal performance from Amy Winehouse and it flew to No. 2 in the UK charts. Where it was overplayed to death, over, and over again. I really do love this song, and the whole of Mark Ronson’s album ‘Version’, but I’ll always skip it now whenever it comes on a shuffle.

My penultimate song, ruined by overplaying, is on the next page.

    I’m so with you on the Clean Bandit track. I had it on a running playlist earlier in the year and eventually couldn’t listen to it without thinking about ready meals (kind of annoying when I was trying to exercise). The Toploader one makes me think of Jamie Oliver for some reason. Was it in an ad of his or a TV prog he did? All very annoying anyway.
