Just because I've dismissed a band as being full of asshats, or sounding like a rusty metal ball being raked against a cheese grater, or being worth about as much to me as a used napkin, doesn't mean I don't occasionally find one song I actually like by them. Okay, maybe I'm being a little harsh. There are some groups I also respect musically, but just don't like. Usually then, I can find one song I actually like.

Yes, I'll admit to liking this song.
I like Billy Joels Allentown. It's the only song where he doesn't try to compensate for his soft rockedness by shouting

that's interesting you should pick 'angie', I don't actually like that tune but the one good song from a band I hate is 'Street Fighting Man' by the Stones. it's a really good song. everything else I've heard by them is more or less drivel, yet they have this reputation as one of the 'great' bands of our time. I would go as far as to say they are rubbish. not even 0.01% as good as the beatles.
Also, I was scratching my head to think of ONE decent song by The Doors so I could post it in here, but honestly there are none.

Sum 41 - We're All To Blame, same here Joe. :thumbup:
That's the tune from Godzilla Final Wars when Godzilla Japan fights Zilla USA.

Actually, that was "Mother's Little Helper," not "Angie." As much as I dislike the Stones, I actually think they are 1,000 times better than The Beatles, and I can't think of a single Beatles song that I like! :bouncegiggle: Oh well, we each have our own individual tastes. I hate The Doors also. Your comment about them made me laugh, so I'm giving you Karma. :thumbup: There is one song by The Doors that I do like a little bit though:

The Who should have called it quits after this one. Their only good song:

I like riders on the storm but in general they were little more than a very dull classic rock band
I hate his guts and can't stand the video but I kinda like this song:

'doh, thanks...not sure why I said Angie, it clearly says Mother's Little Helper on the vid.
I bought The Best Of Marmalade, 2 CDs and only found one track I liked. (and Jimi Hendrix called it his favourite song of 1967)

I'm not gonna link the video but I like "the sweetest thing" by U2, who I consider to be by far the most boring band on Earth
I was going to choose U2 as well. "The Wanderer" (because Johnny Cash does the vocals).
Funny thing about U2, I hate almost all their songs when Bono and crew perform them, but there are several cover versions of their tunes that I like quite a lot.

"The Wasp" is the first song I thought of when I read the title of this thread. I can't stand the doors, but like that song.
But, I'm in the same boat as you in regards to 'Chicago', can't think of anything from them I like.
I'm glad U2 came up, I love Bullet The Blue Sky but I have a rather "meh" reaction to most of their catalog.

I also hate U2, but I love "The Wire" by them from the "Unforgettable Fire" album.
Well, I like old school Def Leppard (ie High N' Dry), but the Hysteria album was complete horses**t. However, the title track is a little guilty pleasure of mine.

I find this one to be an awesome stripper song but I don't like the Eagles.

One more I thought of by a rather big band...

I don't like much of eminems stuff. I love hip hop but most of his stuff is sort of emo rap or just silly. this song kicked my ass though
yeah can't stand Eminem at all, except for his very first album The Infinite, which is great. hard to even believe it's the same guy. (before he invented 'slim shady' and went all cheesy)
