Vitriolic Best Buds/Music

Examples of in  include:

"So don't be fooled if you see 'em fight When tempers fray on a summer's night, ''If you pick on one, you pick on two, The kiwi and the emu."
 * John Williamson's song "The Kiwi and the Emu" depicts the pair, symbolically representing the nations of Australia and New Zealand, as having this kind of relationship:

"You're gonna say I'm gay, when you hear me say That I really truly feel this way, Not that there's anything wrong with being gay, And sometimes we punch each other in the face, Like when I hit on your mom, and got to second base, Just trying to say I love you...in a heterosexual way!"
 * The Midnight Beast's Friends for never
 * Bowling For Soup's song "BFFF" from their album Sorry for Partyin describes the relationship to a T:


 * Gorillaz: Particularly in Phase 1, 2D never seemed to harbor any resentment towards Murdoc, who ran him over, put him in a coma and fractured his eyeball, ran him over again and fractured his other eyeball, knocked out his two front teeth at some point, regularly beats and insults him, and stole several of his possessions, at least one of his girlfriends, and (according to the website) most of his internal organs. 2D still once announced, "Aww, I love you, Murdoc!" in an interview, much to Murdoc's annoyance. He attempted to stand up for himself when the band re-formed, but evidently it hasn't gone very well, as he's currently being held captive by Murdoc on Plastic Beach. He did recently declare that he hates Murdoc, so he seems to be coming to his senses, either because of time spent away from Murdoc or because he's reduced his medication intake.
 * The Police. Despite catapulting each other to stardom, frontman Sting and founder Stewart Copeland could not agree on anything, even coming to blows during the recording of their last album, and their clashing egos severely alienated guitarist Andy Summers. However, after permanently disbanding in 1986, Sting invited the other two to his wedding in 1992 and they performed an impromptu gig for the other guests. The three came together one last time in 2007-08 to play 152 shows on a worldwide tour: on opening night, Copeland wrote a disparaging review of their performance, which finished by describing how they fell into each other's arms laughing backstage.
 * Steven Tyler and Joe Perry. They were actually called "The Toxic Twins" back in the day, though this may have had just as much to do with their Beyond the Impossible drug habits.
 * Simon and Garfunkel.
 * John Lennon always dished out his fair share of constructive criticism and potshots at Paul McCartney in the media post-Beatles breakup, but he truly loved and admired Paul and said he would not want to hear fans or journalists slag him off, thinking that that was what John wanted to hear. John very often defended his friend, and he greatly praised Band On The Run when it came out. Likewise, Paul greatly admired John, and downhearted stopped seesions for his Tug Of War album for several months after learning of John's murder (he wrote "Here Today" in tribute).
