Songs you can't stand by bands you love, and songs you love by bands you can't stand

oddly enough, when i was in school they were known for "wasted years" amongst the handful of people who had heard them.

That was when they may have gotten radio play, however. These days, they don't, and people only know the songs in Rock Band or Guitar Hero.

As much as I like "Run to the Hills" I wish Iron Maiden never made it, along with "The Number of the Beast". Both are ****ing amazing songs, but I hate that they are the only two songs by Maiden that people ever know and these people base their ENTIRE opinion of the band on that one song.

"Have you ever heard of Iron Maiden?"

"They do 'The Number of the Beast', right?"

"Yeah."

"Sorry, I don't listen to devil music."

sadly, Run to the Hills was the first Maiden song I ever heard, and its my favorite to this day (the beginning sounds like Rush almost)

Band I really dislike but a song I like:
My Chemical Romance-Dead(I give them credit for making such a catchy song that I don't dislike).

Bands I love but the songs I really dislike at times:

Rush-Tom Sawyer(I see this song in my honest opinion to be one of the weaker song ideas by Rush. The other singles I can understand getting popular but not this, I hate how people will judge this band by only this song).

Queen-We Will Rock You(I think the studio song is crap, the live version is ten times better).

[Runesmith]

In addition to the ones I mentioned before, I'd like to add...

Dislike the song, like the band:
Sweet Home Alabama - Lynyrd Skynyrd
Dancing in the Streets - Van Halen
I'll Be You - The Replacements (It's not a "bad" song, per se, but I believe it is by The Replacements' standards.)
Start Me Up - The Rolling Stones

Dislike the band, like the song:
Still can't think of any. I'm honestly having a difficult time coming up with any band I outright dislike. Well, except for Creed.

[SputnikDX]

Band I Hate, Song I Love:
Chop Suey - System of A Down
I really can't think of any more...

Song I hate, Band I Love:
When - Megadeth

I can't stand this song. The whole album was pretty bad, but this song is just flat out unbearable.

Band I Hate, Song I Like:
Time Is Running Out by Papa Roach. I hate hate HATE this band, but this song works for me for some reason.

Band I Love, Song I Hate:
Arcade Fire-In The Backseat. The singer sounds like she wants be Bjork. Its pretty distracting.

Eh. It's a great song and all, but doesn't even get in my top 50 Maiden songs.

The video rules too!!!!

Oh my! You said something positive about Maiden! High five!

(Not trying to be an ass, I'm just surprised by that comment)
