With or Without You - U2 - EVERYONE loves this song. I can't stand it. It's a snoozer. U2 is one of the greatest bands from the 80s, and this song is easily its most recognizable, but it's also completely dull and unlike most of U2's early catalog.

Imagine - John Lennon - Another one of those songs EVERYONE thinks is awesome. I don't hate it, but it's still a snoozer. There are some progressive (socialist) ideas expressed in this song, and the lyrics transcend time. But I can't listen to it more than once without falling asleep.

Wonderwall - Oasis - Oasis is one of the worst musical acts ever. People love them, and especially this song. I am perplexed.

Sweet Home Alabama - Lynyrd Skynyrd - Maybe it's because I not from the South, but I don't get the allure of this song. The opening jingle is catchy, but the rest of the song is ordinary.

Enter Sandman - Metallica - Metallica is easily my favorite band of all time, but that doesn't mean they don't have some clunkers. Not only is this song not nearly as good as much of the band's catalog up to that point, but its success pointed them down a path of mediocrity from which they have never completely recovered. The next song that followed Metallica's trademark song style and structure would not be released for another 17 years.

Good list here. I should have put Oasis on my list too...hate them so much...their music makes me want to rip my ears out.
