They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot/Music

• There is Saving Abel's "Addicted". It starts out with the lead singer singing about how much he loves sexing up his girlfriend. Midway through the song though, the lyrics change a bit, making it seem like the lead singer's anger problems would rend their relationship asunder... but that's just the chorus. Yep, they're just having sex again.
• Converge's When Eagles Become Vultures - not a particularly long song, but both lyrically and musically starts off a hard screaming thrash opus... and it's all over within a single minute and becomes meandering dreck. Did their hands get tired?
• Say Anything's song The Church Channel starts as an interesting, somewhat sarcastic look at mental illness but then it turns into a silly song about love when Hayley Williams shows up...
• Rascal Flatts has the song Here Comes Goodbye. Okay, his girlfriend shows up, and something's wrong. Then he spends the entire song bemoaning his loss, and never even opens his front door. Maybe she's breaking up with him. Maybe she's pregnant, and scared that he's going to run out on her because of it. Maybe her father's in the hospital, has two weeks to live, and wants to see his daughter married to that nice boy she's been dating, just so he can give the bride away. We never find out.
• A Soap Opera by The Kinks. A well known celebrity called The Starmaker wants to show the world that he can turn any average Joe like Norman Smith into a star. Instead of focusing on the experiment at hand or its results, Ray Davies shifts the story's focus on the Starmaker adjusting to normal life, filled with the psychological mumbo-jumbo that was popular with rock operas at the time and completely forgetting about Norman Smith outside of a Tomato in the Mirror plot.
• Weezer's infamous scrapped album "Songs From the Black Hole".
• Queensrÿche's "American Soldier" met alot of enthusiastic build-up when Geoff Tate explained that they put very much effort into it, especially by interviewing actual soldiers to bring the album's concept to life. A Progressive-Metal album about the soldiers' struggle, told partially BY soldiers, is a perfect combination- Right? Unfortunately, the album wound up being FAR from metal and FAR from progressive with awful rapping, bland ballads, and what's best described as a "neutered-guitar" sound.
• The first half of Dear Eloise by The Hollies is a funny Break Up Song where the singer gloats about the terrible guy that Eloise dumped him for. The second half turns into a less interesting "I want you back" song and Singing Simlish. If he wanted her back so badly, maybe he shouldn't have taunted her first?
• The last third of the title track from Rush's Hemispheres. Lyricist/drummer Neil Peart does a decent job at setting up the classic Apollonian and Dionysian argument (i.e. reason vs. emotion), but when it comes to presenting a conclusion that leads to a balance to these ideals, he opts for a Deus Ex Machina in the form of the wandering spaceman from "Cygnus X-1", who randomly stops the fight between Apollo and Dionysus and becomes Cygnus, the god of balance.
• Does anyone else think that the intro to Dreamweaver is awesome, and wish that the whole thing was that and not just what feels like a generic 60's pop song?
• There's a song about only having four minutes to save the world. Too bad it's four minutes long.
