12. The Prodigy: 'Smack My Bitch Up' – To say the Braintree massive ruffled a few feathers with their 1997 single would be a massive understatement. Despite the band claiming the lyrics meant “doing anything intensely”, feminist groups including the National Organization For Women accused The Prodigy of misogyny and encouraging violence against women. Banned (somewhat predictably) by the BBC airwaves, the band also released a Jonas Akerlund directed video which was banned almost universally, creating massive publicity in the tabloid press. In 1998, The Beastie Boys even asked The Prodigy to refrain from performing it at Reading Festival because of its “offensive” lyrics.

- Reel around the fountain, dead skin mask are another two. You can do loads of these.

- lol..Kil slit her wrists....but did Eminem do such a gay thing when Kim was fuking another guy..NOPE...he was a man..he punched him like a normal loving husband would

- Bodycount played that track live at Leeds Festival a few years ago - don't agree with the lyrics but it's damn catchy :D

- surprised that there is no rammstein on this list!

Who the heck made this list. Are you telling me that Used to Love Her is more controversial than One in a Million? Used to Love Her wasn't taken seriously by anyone that matters but One in a Million (an awesome song) peed off the world. Although even those that disagree with itknow that it is one B.A. rockin' tune.
