What is a song you LOVE by an artist you DISLIKE?

[Tetris-Rock]

I’ve been back home in the countryside where I grew up for the last few days, and it has sent me on a bit of a Ed Sheeran - Castle On The Hill moment.

Obviously I am not ordinarily a stan of the wonky ginger one but I really think that song is the crowning jewel of his otherwise dreary discography.


So I got to thinking as I begin my long and boring journey back to London … what is a song you LOVE by an artist you HATE?

(Apols if this topic has been done before - a quick search suggested otherwise.)

Such a promising debut single, and the album wasn't bad either. I've never seen anyone's stock crash so fast. Her subsequent material doesn't even touch the sides on the way down.

I quite like Clown too, sorry not sorry.

Another upvote for Castle on the Hill here too.

 

[Saltwater]

Don't hate anyone it's just that some artists leave me kind of indifferent.
ie I love this song very much but otherwise am indifferent to him.

There is never an acceptable time to like Ed Sheeran

He’s one of the few artists in the world that has not ONE redeemable song.

Sometimes I've not minded a couple of his before he's opened his mouth.

I might have to hand in my Moopy membership card after this post, but I'm a sucker for Thinking Out Loud. It's really nice without being overly saccharine and transparent like the other songs of that ilk. E.g. that AWFUL John Legend song which I literally can't hear without wanting to murder someone.

I don't hate any artist but there's a few where I am totally indifferent to their work apart from one song, this being the best example

 

[Calico Moonchild]

Not a single Jessie J song yet? How disappointing Moopu

 

[Kate]

I like Shape of You actually So long as I don't listen to the lyrics and accidentally think about him having sex

 

[KindaCool]

Can't stand her but this slaps

 

[GNL]

Not a single Jessie J song yet? How disappointing Moopu

Still an unexpected BANGER

 

[KindaCool]

Yeah, I Want Love is an anomaly. I wish it had been earlier in her 'career'.

Bizarrely, this is the exact song I came to post. It’s uncharacteristically good for him, even if it does have that bit where he just slags off his school friends for being poor.

Also
Simply Red - Stars
Kanye West - Heartless

 

[Haiku Rewrites]

I'll forgive the Righteous Brothers and Bill's discography because of this one song:

 

[Vicky the Vole]

This is a jewel in his crown:

 

[Cerro de Casa]

 

[Cerro de Casa]

 

[GNL]

I actually can't think of an artist I HATE. I feel like I should invent a feud with a popstar now. I feel like I'm missing out.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Yeah maybe we can change the title to DISLIKE or something

[KindaCool]

Yeah I don't hate Justin Bieber, but him and his music could suddenly stop existing and I wouldn't flinch. But I like this.

 

[Ellie]

This is a jewel in his crown:

Always thought that was one of his most banal. I do however love

 

[straightorbroken]

Oh I do like Lip Service. The ultimate I'm blindfolded but the door is open anthem.

 

[GinAg (39)]

Pervesley I like Holloback Girl.

Still waiting on Taylor Swift.

And yeah Castle of the Hill is nice enough. Everything else fucking diabolical.

 

[jyxz]

More Robbie (Altho mostly because there is minimal input from it)

I'll take *d Sh**r*n and raise you this

 

[RJN]

Also I still like Ed Sheeran

 

[Pipo]

 

[Tisch]

She's awful, but I do like this. Thankfully it came just after shows like the X Factor would have absolutely rinsed it to death

 

[Pipo]

and this one
