"Love Song of the Year" --> There is no in-between.

But, of course, as with any music, there are infinite variables of reactions.

It's all a matter of taste!

When it comes to music, it's all about the cold hard facts, right, Doc?

No, but facts are absolutely essential to assessing what Elvis did, when he did it, and why it is still important.

Facts are absolutely essential to assessing what Elvis did and when he did it. They are definitely important.
But, in the end, it is taste -- not facts -- that sells records.

Chris Christian did a live album in 1986 titled "Chris Christian Live at Six Flags (With Whiteheart)" that features a pop medley on side 2. Looking at the back cover of the album, it would seem that there was even a video of the concert that was sold too through Home Sweet Home Records. The album was manufactured and distributed by A&M Records / Home Sweet Home Records.
Here's an ebay listing of the album I'm talking about:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/1986-CHRIS-CHRISTIAN-Live-At-Six-Flags-LP-WR-8330-NM-/370955387158
The pop medley consists of:
"Don't Worry Baby"
"I Go To Pieces"
"Ain't Nothing Like The Real Thing"
"When The World Runs Out Of Love"
"Telephone Lines"
"Love Song Of The Year"
"Back In My Life Again"
"I Want You, I Need You"
"Stouffers Jingle"
"Coca Cola Jingle"
Chris doesn't sing the entire "Love Song Of The Year" song. He only sings the last part in the medley.
I used to laugh when I should cry
I used to let these feelings passed me by
From now on I'll make it very clear cause I don't want to write
Another love song of the year

So, don't go there. Just because "you" hate it, doesn't mean someone
might find something in the lyric or melody that they relate to.
It doesn't mean you have great taste in music.
He choose to record it, and something in the song touched him to do so.
It wasn't as if he recorded anything they told him to, because
he was known for tossing demo's at the wall, and rejecting alot of stuff.
Of course making a movie and working on a song that fit a scene is another debate all together.

Great point. Unless one is an established recording artist, one cannot in any way make an assessment of a song.
He continues to offer substantive insight day after day.
