You forgot Alice Cooper's Hey Stoopid, stupid.

I agree with sisterseagull about "In the Court of the Crimson King"

Did Queen ever put out a 'bad' song on any album?

Being perhaps controversial, can you name the one song that stops an otherwise great album being "perfect"?

I'll start the ball rolling with:

1/ Led Zeppelin's "Houses of the Holy" ruined by "The Crunge"

2/ At the risk of being accused of heresy, "Abbey Road" ruined by "Octopus's Garden"

3/ Pink Floyd's "Final Cut" ruined by "Not now John" (and it's not the swearing, I just dislike the song)

I just heard The Clash's "London Calling" album for the first time (years late still counts though similar to horseshoes?)

I was impressed with every offering.

Seems I can't edit my original post, so I'll just quote my first post now that I've thought of some more.

The originals still stand:
"Sigh No More"- Mumford and Sons.
"Fleet Foxes"- Fleet Foxes.
"Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band"- The Beatles.
But to that list I add:
"Helplessness Blues" by Fleet Foxes
"The Dark Side of the Moon" by Pink Floyd
"Abbey Road" and "Revolver" by The Beatles
"Illinois" by Sufjan Stevens
"Ägætis byrjun", "( )" and "Takk..." by Sigur Rós
"Oh, Inverted World" and "Chutes Too Narrow" by The Shins
"For Emma, Forever Ago" and "Bon Iver" by Bon Iver
"I Want That You Are Always Happy" by The Middle East
"Picaresque" by The Decemberists
"Pet Sounds" by The Beach Boys
"Every Kingdom" by Ben Howard

I know I have at least one or two (or three) others, but the one that comes to mind is “Awake and Alive” by Skillet.
