Is Lemon Crush the song that P fans disagree about the most?

I´ve never seen any song appear so frequently on both "Best P songs"- and "Worst P songs"-lists on the org as Lemon Crush. Personally I love it and consider it to be one of his ten best songs ever.

What makes people disagree so completely about this particular song? What makes it so "controversial"? Do you love it or hate it?

Is there any other P song that people disagree about more? If so, why do you think that song is so controversial?

Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!

Really? So there are actually people who have that on their "best P songs"-lists? (because I´ve only seen it on "worst"-lists). If it´s true it´s not that surprising, IMO, since it is a very different kind of song (a capella, experimental style etc) that you would expect people to have different opinions about. That´s why I´m so confused about the disagreement over Lemon Crush. It doesn´t seem that "provocative" to me.

Lemon Crush is one funky ass song. One of my favs on the Batman soundtrack.

i personally havent seen lemon crush in any bad song lists but i think solo would beat it any time.

I love the cartoon stop/start production on this song, especially the last minute or so. Great stuff.

Highly overlooked and one of my favorites from this era.
