What are some songs that you started listening to ironically, but grew to genuinely enjoy? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I like The Man Behind The Slaughter by The Living Tombstone. I don't tend to enjoy fan-made music, but this one was too groovy to pass up.

When I first saw Gimme Chocolate as a share on Facebook, I thought BabyMetal were a one hit wonder meme band. Cool and fun but not a "real" band, I didn't think anymore about it.

A few years later I heard they were releasing a second album and I was like "these guys are actually serious?!". I checked out more of their stuff and got hooked.

At that time in my life I had been listening to metal for well over a decade and was wondering if I was actually getting bored of it. BabyMetal were a huge breath of fresh air to the scene.
