There are a lot of lousy musicians that are a lot more popular than they deserve, but in you opinion, who are the three most over rated musicians (or groups) of all time?
LOL! That was one of the good things about him. Dexy.
Interesting... at least for the first 25 posts, there were no women. Hmm... statistical oddity? Surely Madonna would have been mentioned by now, no?
Jeff Beck
I think we got stuck on the term “musician”, I don’t consider singers as musicians.
...and Bette Midler. Every time I hear her, I wonder how long hearing loss will last if I shoot a 12 gauge right near my ear.
Bob Seger and Billy Joel.
I liked her in Ruthless People.
What, no votes for Beyoncé?
Them's fightin' words in Michigan.
OMG !!!! I’ve been having a fight on FB for months with the friend of a friend about Sinatra, and he and his friends are going beserk that I dared to criticize him. One of them even said, “Cite one authority who sys that Sinatra can’t sing” - and I answered that even if I had the names of twenty people who agreed with me, I wouldn’t list them because I don’t make my judgements based on consensus - I do it based on my hear - he has a harsh tone and sings flat. I call his his style “all delivery, no voice.”
Bzzzzzz! Billy Joel, Si, Bob Seger, No!
I’m thrilled to find that there’s someoneelse out there who doesn’t like them. I grew up at the height of the Beatles craze and I never liked them and never bought one of their albums.
I’m psychic, dude, I perdict that everyone’s favorite will show up here!
Hey, has the great discovery that “Dylan can’t sing” been made yet on the thread?
Feel free to cite me. LOL
And my nominee for worst rock band of the 70s ...... Styx...Gayest sounding band, ever.
I’m surprised no one has mentioned U2 yet.
disagree there. He just got better and better. His death marked the end of soul music.
God help you. He's a complete moron.
Because they are actually good.
