My mom loved “Love Will Keep Us Together.,” and I have it on my phone. I don’t recall her having enthusiasm for any other Sedaka work, but only years later did I realize that “Bad Blood” includes the word “b****” in the lyrics. Even then I put the word in the second category of profanity, but profanity it still was. So my opinion of him dropped ever after.

That was a duet with Elton John, and IIRC that was also right around the time Elton did “The B**** Is Back”, so apparently Elton really liked that word.
