I like Springsteen, but I think you might have a point with that one.

Stairway to heaven
Wonderwall
Any Kings of Leon song (they're rather generic and have been well before they had mainstream success).
Living on a Prayer or any other cheesy bon jovi song.
Nothing else matters / the unforgiven I and II / Enter Sandman

I could go on, but lets face it most popular songs are shallow/rubbish, and if they aren't then radio overplay makes them appear that way.
