I always felt I was the only one who would find it ... off-putting that the marching band would play music by a pedophile at every school sporting event I've been forced to witness.

You know, I like it.
Great drums, strange production (I love the way his vocals change from heavily reverbed to dry in the space of a line) and funny, wry lyrics.
As a disclaimer, I hate everything else he ever made.

Everybody gets one free pass. It's been documented that I like that Elton John/KiKi Dee song, so....

that song sucked balls, i remember everybody in 6th grade thought it was cool ('cept me, cuz i had a big sister to tell so)

I knew from a very early age that he sucked because my cousins who were the epitome of everything bad were in love with him.

Are we looking for rock and/or roll or rock and roll?

The one by the Who doesn't really fit the thread description, but it's a great song.

Someone attributed "God Gave Rock and Roll to You" to--shudder--kiss. They may have covered it but it was Rod Argent from the Zombies who wrote it and performed it originally.

AND...unless I missed it no one mentioned Velvet Underground's Rock and Roll?
