Really? THESE artists hate their OWN songs? Do we hate this Billy Joel song as much as Billy does?

John Lennon hates a Beatles song? Which one?

Yes, it's true. While WE can't get enough of our favorite songs, the artists that created them have had enough.

Is it something called perfectionism?

Perfectionism

According to xientce.medium.com: Perfectionism can make us obsess over individual details in work, that make-up 1% of the design/project. It makes the flaws transparent, and the strengths opaque. We never see the ‘good’ parts. Most of the time we’d rather look at other people’s work.

Imposter Syndrome

Is that really a thing? According to Wikipedia, it is:

Impostor syndrome, also known as impostor phenomenon or impostorism, is a psychological occurrence in which people doubt their skills, talents, or accomplishments and have a persistent internalized fear of being exposed as frauds. Despite external evidence of their competence, those experiencing this phenomenon do not believe they deserve their success or luck. They may incorrectly attribute it to the Matthew effect or the Dunning–Kruger effect, or they may think that they are deceiving others because they feel as if they are not as intelligent as they outwardly portray themselves to be. Impostor syndrome can stem from and result in strained personal relationships and can hinder individuals from achieving their full potential in their fields of interest.

Sure, we all have doubts from time to time. The famous Jackie Gleason was known for his, imposter syndrome. At the beginning of each show, he'd say to his staff, let's go and fool 'em.' 

Lets' see what Billy Joel song, Billy himself isn't fond of!

Billy Joel-We Didn't Start The Fire

After messing up a verse during a LIVE show, Billy said: It's the same thing verse after verse. Just the words change. It's one of the worst melodies I ever wrote." Billy, we love it.

Robert Plant-Stairway To Heaven

"I'd break out in hives if I had to sing that song in every show."

John Lennon-Let It Be

Lennon said "I don't know what Paul's thinking when he writes "Let It Be."

Maybe because it was the final Beatles single before Paul announced he was leaving the band. Maybe John knew what was coming.

Madonna-Material Girl

She is tired of it. It's hit over 104 MILLION views on You Tube.

Liam Gallagher-Wonder Wall

The Oasis star says: "I want to gag every time I have to sing it!"

James Blunt-You're Beautiful

Blunt said he feels the song was force fed down our throats. He feels burnt out on the song. He may be right.
