Talk:I Hate Rock 'n' Roll

Not same song as "I Love Rock 'n' Roll"
It had been proposed to merge this article with "I Love Rock 'n' Roll (The Jesus and Mary Chain song)" postulating that these are the same song. However, the two songs are different by any measure:
 * Titles are similar but different
 * Lyrics are completely different:
 * http://www.lyricsdepot.com/jesus-and-mary-chain/i-hate-rocknroll.html
 * http://www.lyricsdepot.com/jesus-and-mary-chain/i-love-rock-n-roll.html
 * Harmonic (chord) structure is different:
 * F# - E - C# - B5 (https://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/t/the_jesus_and_mary_chain/i_hate_rock_and_roll_crd.htm)
 * Cm - Fm - E G (https://chordify.net/chords/the-jesus-and-mary-chain-i-love-rock-n-roll-genimas)
 * Arrangement is completely different:
 * https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=veb_3IWtiJM
 * https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mlu4F4SRjyk

The main similarity is the lyrical theme (i.e. opposite sides of same theme) and they are probably related (i.e. one was inspired by the other) since they are also on the same album (Munki), but that doesn't make them the same song, or covers as WP:COVERSONG.
