OPHELIA.

Glory of the 80s.

Honestly, I think a lot of these choices are songs that people are neutral/lukewarm about rather than hated. Or maybe they just have one or two very vocal detractors, or they were hated at release but not anymore? Mary’s of the Seas is not hated. I don’t think Jamaica Inn or She’s Your Cocaine or Dragon are either? Or Snow Cherries? They’re definitely not comparable to the actual enduring hate people have for Strong Black Vine or Maybe California or Not Dying Today

@just owls I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone else profess love for DMMCTV! I’ve got a lot of love in my heart for that song.

I forgot to add Ireland, Ophelia and Maybe California. I don't mind them either. The Glory of the 80s hatred was always a head scratcher for me too.

People hate Heart of Gold / Raining Blood / I'm not in love / Happiness is a Warm Gun? !!! There's not a single bad track on SLG in my opinion.

my additions are Hoochie Woman and Witness. I can understand the hate, I just don't agree with it.

[Octopussy]

I forgot VEGAS!!! I love that one too!! I didn't even think of Scarlet era because it's generally adored, but my favorite song from there is Your Cloud which doesn't seem to have a lot of fans either.

I have always loved Heart of Gold, but I've heard people say it was noisy mess. It's the last time she ever committed crazy, panting Pele-style vocals to a record.

Heart of Gold owns my body

I also forgot to add Ophelia, FTYP and Sweet the sting.
The hate for Ophelia bothers me the Most I think because I never understood why people disliked it so much. The best description I got is that it sounds like I-feel-yah.
