It took me 16 years to figure out why I hate a Journey song. What song did you hated until you figured out why?

I love Journey. But for some reason I hated, “Don’t Stop Believin” and I could not understand why I loathed that song until I recently rewatched The Sopranos for the second time after 16 years and the final episode had that song playing until the “blackout.” And now I know why…
Anyone else had a similar experience with a popular song that you couldn’t explain why it rubbed you the wrong way?

I kinda like don’t stop believin’, because for a pop song it has one extended chorus to end the song. I like unique song structures though especially when really popular songs do something interesting like that. Journey kinda played around with structure and phrasing, given their musical backgrounds. Arena rock with fusion roots.
That’s the thing. I always recognized it as an amazing song, but I actually got nauseous whenever it came on the radio and I just could not figure out why until now.
Damn the last episode of the Sopranos. Now I need to figure out why I hate “Fly me to the Moon” when i love Sinatra so much.
Have you seen Neon Genesis Evangelion? Fly me to the moon was the ending theme, and that might explain it if you saw all 26 episodes.
Holy shit… that’s it. It has to be. I haven’t watched Evangelion in like, 20 years or so, but I can hear the cover now and it’s like nails on a chalkboard.
