What semigood says is:

He thinks that Memory is a better song then Walk Like A Man.
He thinks Walk Like A Man would be better as the first single.
He actually thinks that Memory is a masterpiece.
He has no desire to listen to Memory, usually.

None of the above statements contradict each other. The world is colorful and full of nuances. Let's embrace that

Aquaman from last year was a generally poor movie, I have seen it twice in less than 12 months. While I won't seek it out, I may leave Aquaman on if I am scanning cable one night in the future.



Regardless of that, I don't listen to Memory often because I don't like the song that much. What's liking something got to do with understanding whether that something is a masterpiece or not? Critical thinking should allow you to judge something beyond the bias of your own opinion. Otherwise anything you simply don't like would be deemed to lack merit.



And like Seb correctly pointed out, I said one of their few masterpieces (less than a handful for me) this century. I was not neccesarily comparing it to the myriad masterpieces the band put out pre-2000.
