for me most bands, cant call em bands really, are poop these days, cant sing ,cant play instruments, cant perform without trickery to make em sound in key etc Much prefer earlier rock ,punk and oi as a lot of those bands sound the same live as on record. Can't stand elton john one of the most talented waste of air ever. think elvis was very overated Theres an advert on tv atm, heard the music and though christ its like early ramones, raw and exciting so had to look it up Bass Drum of Death – Nerve Jamming I'm not adverse to other forms of music, buddy holly is brilliant Zappa? |

I can get into a bit of Frank, mainly because of a mate who is fanatical. Problem is, for every great track, there's 20 that aren't. |

Def Leppard (vastly overproduced with a very poor vocalist)
Iron Maiden (boring metal by numbers since Dickinson joined)
Bruno Mars (overrated beyond belief)
Adele (sounds like a disinterested pub singer)
Red Hot Chilli Peppers ( boring, pretentious and over hyped)
Ed Sheeran (can't write a good song to save his life)

I think he is brilliant. |

Red hot chilli peppers never understood everyone raving about em at the time, very weak both lyrically and vocally. As for the others i would personally rather be locked in a room and forced to listen to a loop of sigue sigue sputnik |

Eminem. Very poor lyricist and incredibly overrated. Have to disagree with that if only for one song - Stan - about a fan who gets so paranoid about the fact his idol won't reply to his letters that he drives his car off a bridge - taking his kidnapped girlfriend with him. Only too late does his hero finally reply to his letters. A great set of lyrics about someone who finds everything all too much and finally goes overboard. The song itself is really threatening as the fan builds from love to worry to hate to suicide and it's a classic. The penultimate verse, where he finally loses it, is especially brilliant. Dear Mister-I'm-Too-Good-To-Call-Or-Write-My-Fans, this'll be the last package I ever send your ass It's been six months and still no word - I don't deserve it? I know you got my last two letters; I wrote the addresses on 'em perfect So this is my cassette I'm sending you, I hope you hear it I'm in the car right now, I'm doing 90 on the freeway Hey Slim, I drank a fifth of vodka, you dare me to drive? You know the song by Phil Collins, "In the Air Tonight" about that guy who coulda saved that other guy from drowning but didn't, then Phil saw it all, then at a show he found him? That's kinda how this is, you coulda rescued me from drowning Now it's too late - I'm on a 1000 downers now, I'm drowsy and all I wanted was a lousy letter or a call I hope you know I ripped all of your pictures off the wall I love you Slim, we coulda been together, think about it You ruined it now, I hope you can't sleep and you dream about it And when you dream I hope you can't sleep and you SCREAM about it I hope your conscience EATS AT YOU and you can't BREATHE without me See Slim; [*screaming*] Shut up bitch! I'm trying to talk! Hey Slim, that's my girlfriend screaming in the trunk but I didn't slit her throat, I just tied her up, see I ain't like you cause if she suffocates she'll suffer more, and then she'll die too Well, gotta go, I'm almost at the bridge now Oh dung, I forgot, how'm I supposed to send this dung out? [car tires squeal] [CRASH] .. [brief silence] .. [LOUD splash] EDIT - for anyone who thinks rap is just about hoes and cars, and would like to maybe think again, listen to this and read the lyrics as the fan loses the plot. It's a mini-epic in six minutes. Maybe not one for the kids at bed time. |

Very average story teller compared to other rappers from the 90s era.

Ok. I've immediately pressed reply on the top right before reading because I'm going to say this and then see if anyone agrees...
The Beatles.
The Beatles are the most overrated band ever and with the exception of one or two songs (that were covered better by subsequent bands anyway), they are sh**e.
There. I said it.
