The two at the top of my list are Spin the Black Circle and Whipping. I will keep going to any show I can and never complain if I didn't hear either of these live again.
I love Mike, but the running/circling the whole stage during spin just seems kind of cheesy to me. And whipping, I dunno, I can't explain it - just completely "meh" for me now....

I love classic Spin The Black Circle - the versions from 1994-1995 just rip
But Ed sounds like shit on that one now

Whipping hasn't aged well on record or live at all - Ed can't sing that one live anymore, and Jeff's backing vocals are horrendous - He sound like a sheep

Whipping is played much too fast and I hate how Matt plays it. I can still listen to and love 93-94 versions of the tune.

Garden is probably the song that has aged worst for me. Was one of my favourites on Ten when the album first came out. Now I just find it really bland and stodgy.

Particularly disappointing when you think of some of the other tracks recorded during those sessions that could have been on Ten instead.

Evenflow is a good one to me. It's hard to say otherwise. Leash for sure, because of the subject matter.

I saw DTE mentioned earlier and I still think that song sounds fantastic.

I am entertained by the number of people answering instead the question, “on which songs has the band not aged so well?”

STBC is a good example. They slow it down, and ed´s just not good there. Also Blood if they choose to play it on the second encore.
