Wild Honey Pie by the Beatles. Don't get me wrong, Revolution 9 is terrible, but it stands out as possibly the most widely known piece of avante-guard music. Wild Honey Pie doesn't even get a historical footnote in anything. Non-Beatles fans don't know it exists, most Beatles fans have forgotten about it, and those who haven't wish they had.

I consider myself a pretty big Beatles fan for someone born in the 80s, but they do have a few shitty songs and I actually quite like a few of their "bad" songs like Octopus's Garden and even Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da. Hell, I like Flying.

Wild Honey Pie is probably the most egregious.
