The 10 Most Overrated Musical Artists of All Time
PJ Media ^ | 13 Feb 2019 | Chris Queen

Posted on 02/14/2019 2:04:22 PM PST by Rummyfan

Not long ago, I wrote about the most overrated hits songs of all time. I love compiling lists like those because they allow me to get in touch with my snarky side as well as rant a little. In that post four months ago, I mused about doing a list of overrated artists. Well, the time has come.

Here are the ten most overrated musical artists of all time. Don’t get me wrong: I like some of the music by some of these artists, and though there are only a few bands and solo performers I completely despise, you’ll find that I don’t hold back on how little I care for many of the folks on this list.

Believe me, I’m aware that I’m going to ruffle some feathers with this list. I’m fine with that, because taste in music is always subjective. But as you read the list, keep an open mind and see if you agree with me. And even if you don’t, just have fun reading it

Madonna is highly over-rated in my opinion.

Really? Check this out: Hanky Panky

Florida Georgia Line have always sucked. And now they’ve come out as anti Second Amendment. They can go to hell for that.

I caught a CCR concert in the late 60's or maybe 70-71, not sure when but I remember that they were an absolutely terrible show. They played and sounded great but there was NO show.

They stood on the stage and played for an hour or so and I really think that they said not one word to the audience.

They talked a bit amongst themselves but nothing for the concert goers.

But, the music was great.

This clown stands up and says "Oh yeah, the Doors, the Stones and CCR are way over rated.

Right!

Can't argue about any of the other seven, but he missed the boat (probably Proud Mary) on these three.

The only concert I ever walked out of was a Springsteen concert; I was given the tickets. He sucks, I don’t get the acclaim directed his way.

Eric Clapner, too. He is, IMO, the most overrated guitarist of all time. God, yeah, lol.

I always liked CCR, and thought Fogerty had great talent.

Most of them are overrated.

If it wasn’t for really good studio bands(Swampers, Wrecking Crew)and Phil Spector we probably wouldn’t be able to listen to them.

Programming.

I think Elton John early stuff was ok. It’s when he got into the ‘stay relevant’ jive that he became excruciating. Another negative to him is that he has a face you just wanna hit for some reason. The cheesy smirk I guess

“And now they’ve come out as anti Second Amendment. They can go to hell for that.”

Is that so? Dang, it’s hard to find any good new country music. It seems they’re mostly either hip hop or commies.
