Neil Young realized he was much happier before the fame and said something like "it put me on the freeway to success but I was much happier trudging along in the ditch where I belonged."

Slash hated sweet child of mine from the moment he played that rift screwing around and the rest of the band demanded they make a song around it.

In most cases, it's because people ignored everything else the artist did and only recognized their most popular one.

I know in Lemmy's case, he was annoyed that Motrhead had been consistently recording new albums in the 30+ years since Ace of Spades and had a different line-up for most of it, but their early albums and the classic line-up got most of the attention.

I even did Halloween a few years as Lemmy and that was enough to annoy me with drunk people coming up to me and growling "THA ACES OF SPADES!" in my face.

The author of Mary Poppins (P. L. Travers) supposedly didn't like the film.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P._L._Travers#Disney_version

Travers was an adviser in the production, but she disapproved of the Poppins character in its Disney version, with harsher aspects diluted; she felt ambivalent about the music; and she so hated the use of animation that she ruled out any further adaptations of the series.[18] She received no invitation to the film's star-studded premire until she "embarrassed a Disney executive into extending one". At the after-party, she said loudly "We have a long way to go, Disney'." Disney replied, "Pamela, the ship has sailed", and walked away.[19]

Travers so disliked the Disney adaptation and the way she felt she had been treated during the production that when producer Cameron Mackintosh approached her years later about making the British stage musical she acquiesced only on conditions that English-born writers alone and no one from the original film production was to be directly involved.[20][21] This specifically excluded the Sherman Brothers from writing additional songs for the production. However, original songs and other aspects from the 1964 film were allowed to be incorporated into the production.[22] These points were even stipulated in her last will and testament.[23][24][25]

In a 1977 interview Travers remarked, "I've seen it once or twice, and I've learned to live with it. It's glamorous and it's a good film on its own level, but I don't think it is very like my books."[26]

You're probably only talking about music, but fuck it.

He was always proud of it, he just wasn't crazy about the counter-culture following it had in the 60s that took it out of context.

But his son does utterly hate the LotR movie trilogy.
