Friday night is music night: Songs you love by bands you can't stand...

[Fnaar]

I'm probably the antithesis of a 'rocker', but this is masterful

A great song from a 2/3 decent album, but other than that I can't stand them.

Kinda turning into a 'guilty pleasures' thread, but hey ...
Reminds me of when my kids were younger, and one particular really lovely summer holiday

Only know a couple of songs by them (though a friend has played with them in a recent incarnation). Never really investigated their stuff, but this and "The Only One I Know" are brill (eve if a bit 'sub-oasis')

This marks (no pun intended) the transition from a folksy Tyrannosaurus Rex to Glam rock band (unforgivable) but I did like some of the releases.

I know nothing bout these guys apart from this song ... but it is a great song!!!!

I'm a guitar picker, but could never get into this lot. Except this song. Which is just great. I remember when it was released - I saw them on TV (Rock Goes to College, maybe?) and this was the stand out track. It faded without trace until it was rereleased a few months later and the rest is history.

Never keen on Slade but this brings back some memories.

Following on from my Thin Lizzy post earlier, I really am not a rocker by any stretch of the imagination, but this is more punk than a lot of the punk I was into at the time
