Your most controversial music opinions

Bit late to the Chems party but Electrobank is their best tune.

And Born Slippy is the greatest piece of dance music ever created.

I don't have a strong opinion on best Chems  song, but Born Slippy is a shit song that got more airplay than it deserved due to being in Trainspotting

Definitely their best video, and as a tune it's up there too.

Dancing Queen is jaw-dropping.  You could make arguments for things like The Winner Takes It All or Mama Mia being ABBA's best song (or Angel Eyes which I'm extraordinarily fond of) - but when it comes down to it it's the most popular for a reason.

The Visitors is Abba's best song.

Hard agree with the airplay not so much the shit song bit - I quite like it as tunes go, in full not the shitty half length radio edit.

But Underwood milk the life out if it, last time I saw them they looped it for what felt a frickin hour before actually dropping it - I get it, to the casual listener it probably made their night & you can't help but dance when it finally frickin drops - all that said I'd much rather be dancing to 2 Months Off, Jumbo or Rez because they are by far better tunes.

Going for a shite > ABBA > Chemical Brothers

It's maybe their most underrated album......but One Of Us is probably my favourite song on it.

Nah man, those chords are euphoric when they finally drop. The longer they loop it the better.

Pfft! 

There with your can of Special Brew chanting 'Larger, larger, larger....'

Said very tongue in cheek btw 😁

As stated I do actually like it, it's on a few of my running playlists & I always pick up the pace & have a massive grin when it shuffles in - I've just been in far too many environments when it's being enjoyed then as the build starts more & more muppets pile on chanting & singing the incorrect offensive lyrics.  Underworld could loop it as much as they like if they could make the asshats stay in their caves.

The actual lyrics read well as a poem - bar the chorus, that can get in the frickin sea!

Though to be fair they don't go as far as to add in a rap that goes

'I get around, with my big boner'

Doesn't scan. Try "I get around her, with my big boner".

I'd missed that. Now I'm an influencer, it's hard to keep up. I get while people like them to be fair, they have some tunes that I could listen to for almost a minute before getting bored.

Managed to play both clips at the same time, just now, creating an infinite Born Slippy time loop - stuck in build up loop forever - where the drop never happens!

Born Slippy is the anthem of a generation.

But @DirtyLurkeris right, Two Months Off is better. As is Scribble, Rez, Jumbo, Cowgirl, King of Snake..

Love em.

Another Beach Boys opinion, which is probably too niche to be controversial - Breakaway is their most underrated song.

[Alex DeLarge]

The Dark Side of the Moon is overrated, Animals is the best 70s Floyd album.

Your not the first person I've heard with that opinion, alot of people seem to think Animals or Meddle is the best Floyd album.

Personally I love Dark Side of the Moon and the first few times I hear people say Animals or Meddle was better I excitedly went to listen to them. For my tastes I struggle to comprehend how anyone could prefer either of those albums to DSotM. I wouldn't even rate them as Floyd's 2nd or 3rd best albums
