Might have had this topic before but I'm constantly upset with myself when a band I hate puts out a song I really enjoy, Im sure others have this issue.
Powderfingers Lost and Running and Matchbox 20s How Fare We've Come are probably my two most recent.
I hope that one day concerts will have discounted tickets for people who only want to go in and listen to one song!
Yours?

Sunday Bloody Sunday by U2. Love the song, not the band in the slightest. Im sure there are more, that one just leaps out

I cant stand U@, and in particular the pompous self-righteous lead singer - but I really like several of their songs: With Or Without You, All I Want Is You, Beautiful Day.
Nor could I ever stand Joe Cocker - but You Can Leave Your Hat On is a song that brings me a perverse pleasure.

"Some Kind of Bliss' - Kylie Minogue.
Only a good song 'cos James Dean Bradfield helped her out.

MOTLEY CRUE: Looks That Kill
U2 also have a lot of good songs... if only Bono wasn't such a knob!

This is the reason I try not to get too hooked on loving or hating artists on principle. Play each ball (I mean song) on its merits
You never know when your fav band will turn in a dog or one you hate finds some gold!
I used to hate Midnight Oil but as the 80s wore on I had to admit I liked some of their later stuff
I couldn't stand the Spice Girls
but they did a slow number on the Diana Tribute CD which I thought was great.

Nearly got thrown out the pub after a few beers with mates after I said I did not mind the new Shannon Noll song "In Pieces".
Probably deserved...as long as I dont get a ban here for admitting it!!!

I'm with you southee...I wanna hate the bloke, but I like some of his music (Lift)
Oasis are a mob of knobs, but I like their gear. Wonderwall always gets me singing....

Detest all of Guy Sebastion's stuff except for the film clip for "Elevator Love" due to the presence of the goddess that is Jennifer Hawkins, always watched the clip with the sound off.
The only Matchbox Twenty song I can stand is their first "Push". All down hill from then on.

and for all you Shannon Noll knockers - I don't give your family shit, so please refrain from doing the same to mine
