Did Bob Seger ever put out a bad song?

Asked by Dutchess_III (47072points) August 17th, 2019

I started with “Come to Papa” and now it’s cycling through songs of his, some that I don’t remember having heard before…and they’re all just beautiful.
The older I get the more I appreciate the art.

I’m not a huge Bob Seger fan, but I went to his concert and he was great.

Yep, pretty much every song he recorded.

About as many as Gunter Gabriel.

Love him. Used to listen to him on the car with the kids.

Do you mean other than the ones he grunts and groans and “uh-huh“s through?
My philosophy is, if you don’t know the words, shut up.

Many times I wished I could drop something on his head, like a fucking rock.

I would have to say, all of them.

Can you give me a for instance @kritiper? Reading your answer the only thing that came to mind was Barry White.

“Against the Wind.”

The lyrics of that song are not hard to understand at all.
He wrote most of his own songs. What makes you think he doesn’t know the words?

@Dutchess_III

You’d be surprised at how many artists forget their own material.

Dutchess_III's avatar

Well, I can imagine if they were singing live and had a million songs stored in their brains, but I thought he was suggesting that Seger was forgetting the words on the official recorded version.
