My top, or rather bottom/bum notes are:

Richard Wagner - love opera, love classical, love ancient mythology...... Hate Wagner....!






U2......what the <expletive deleted> is the <expletive deleted> of this <expletive deleted> excuse for a rock band?






I don't much like Dire Straits too, apart from Sultans of Swing



or is it just me.... that has a hatred of what is otherwise amongst the most popular?

Back to the OP, I forget who once observed something like "Wagner has some great moments and some terrible half hours".
Someone suggested that Rossini said that - or something similar.

I wholeheartedly agree. Then I might have added that the popularity of some 20th Century classical composers can baffle me. Many of them don't seem to have a great moment...
