La Fin de La Semaine Essay Question: Special "Insert Michael Jackson Joke Here" Edition

Okay, this seemed kind of prescient/timely in the era of President Inepstein.

That is, of course, the incomparable Something Fierce, who as long-time/attentive readers will recall, I have described as the greatest pop/rock band you've never heard of unless you're from Minneapolis.

Of the song itself, I famously opined (at the time of its release in 1996):

"One song [from A Sound for Sore Ears] deserves particular mention...specifically, 'Watergate,' in which [they] posit -- over a hilariously overdramatic instrumental bed -- that A Girlfriend From Hell is the metaphorical equivalent of the Nixon scandals and sustain the conceit for more than five fricking minutes. If nothing else, this must be the first song in history to contemplate rhyming 'spill the beans' with 'Haldeman, Mitchell and Dean,' and I would like to go on record, at this juncture, as saying that this song remains for my money the most audacious conceptual masterstroke on any '90s rock album by anybody. So there."

And I stand by every word.

Which leads us, subtly but inexorably, to the subject of today's thought experiment. To wit:

...and your favorite (or least favorite) song centering on a person or people who are at the very least not so nice (and at the worst really evil) in the title or lyrics is/are???

Discuss.

No arbitrary rules whatsoever, but bonus points if the song you pick actually has the actual word "bad" in it somewhere.

Oh, and in case you're wondering, my fave is this fabulous Larry Williams cover you might possibly have heard before. 😎

Alrighty then -- what would YOUR choices be?

And have a great weekend, everybody!!!
