Hey, what's wrong with that song?

It's one of my all-time favorites also. But I suspect that every
strong melody has a few enemies simply because it *is* strong, and we're
not all the same. For those who dislike a certain progression or
unresolved phrase or whatever, they will hate it even more because it
*is* strong and cannot be ignored.
