Have the lyrics of an otherwise good song ever ruined the entire song for you?

You know, like you look up the lyrics and find out it’s a metal cover of a misogynistic pop song (couldn’t hear lyrics over the screaming).

Whenever I listen to any neofolk music, YouTube always leads me to some catchy yet racist stuff.

@MrMonnyPenny I looked up the lyrics of that song and I don’t understand it. Why is it racist?

@ShaythePanTransMan it's referencing Enoch Powell's Rivers of Blood speech. (A speech about black people taking over England and having the "whip hand" over the whites). And talking about the inflow ("invasion") of migrants replacing the native white population.

@MrMonnyPenny Ohh, I see. Interesting.
