Am I the only one who thinks buddy holly is insipid and insanely overrated?

American Pie is a crap song that could only appeal to teenage morons — ofall ages.

No.

I think Buddy Holly is great - for fast tempo. His geeky gooniness showed through in his slow, “romantic” songs, though.

I love his up tempo songs.

He is another example of an act that can do well in one or the other, but not both.

Everly Bros. were great on both counts, slow and fast. One of the few. Just brought it to mind.
