I've always liked hits that were progressive like death metal was twenty years ago.
Examples: "Surfing Bird" by the Trashmen, any song by Little Richard (my favourite lyrics by him is "you keep on knocking but you can't come in... maybe tomorrow you can try again" -this is repeated about 20 times in the song), and a big time favourite, "Loui, Loui", which is such a timeless classic as Beethoven's fifth... ta-ta-ta-taaa... ta-ta-ta-taaa is beethoven (the pre-historic first pioneer for death metal), and "taaa tatata... ta-taa tatata... ta-taa tatata... ta-taa tatata" is Loui Loui. Even the Monkees had a hit like that, "Randy Scouse Git", the meaning of which I have no clue of. Whatsoever.
These days I am into coutnry-RAP fusion.
And I was the only kid in the seventies that enjoyed both hard rock AND disco at the same time. True, I became schizophrenic and tried to kill myself in those days, quite an number of times, but hey, I loved music.
"If you allow this to happen, your children will be next." So true.

Edit:
If you think I'm bulling you with the Country-RAP fusion genre, then take note, that no, I am not. There are two songs so far on record that I know of in this genre: "Gangsta' Paradise" by Coolio and "F... It, F... You Hoe I Don't Want You Back (unedited)" by Eamon.
