"In 2005, Q magazine included "Batdance" in a list of "Ten Terrible Records by Great Artists", even though Q gave the whole album 5 stars when first reviewed."

I'm removing this because it's a silly, shallow criticize from an obviously inconsistent music magazine; I don't consider listing "Ten Terrible Records by Great Artists" to be good or interesting--or even notable or popular--music writing and it's definately not significant or objective enough to included here. Proclaiming records as "terrible" in little lists in magazines is ridiculous to begin with, but adding them to encyclopedias just annoys me intensely. Where is the relevance to the article? Some (bad) music critics think the song is "terrible"; what does this tell us about the song? Nothing.
