You are young. You understand so little.

I don't know about young, but perhaps I understand so little.

Wow!!!



Can't argue with a lot of those. Particularly Bruce Springsteen..."Bored in the USA". The worst concert I've seen, and I've seen a few, was Bob Dylan. People were walking out after just a few songs.

True.



Woke crap, mostly.

Not the topic of this thread, but TV has  gone crazy woke .. every TV show including those that have been around a long time have changed drastically and are now chock full of the various areas of woke in every single show

Can you give an example.

Chicago PD, Bluebloods, SVU, Law & Order etc. etc. are all cow-towing to new softer on crime rules of the new road  .. and are adding more and more gay and even trans people

Some long time members coming out gay etc. etc.

New ones all have a married to gay co-star  the new Law & Order International a classic example

There is a recent further Law & Order (I forget the suffix as It came on so woke & usually after white supremacists  I don't watch it)

It's first year for example the entire show was in pursuit of "extremely obvious" islamic plots from a mosque .. only to end up at the last moment being a white supremacist made it look like islamics ... references to January 6 supremacists in many crime shows +++++++++++

Permeation of CRT creeping into many (white guy bad, all others good)



I have no comedy shows I watch at this point in time but peaking in quickly I'm seeing more blatant  woke that the others I mentioned



That's just skimming the top

Chicago PD I agree. If I see a woke episode of a show, I am done with it.

I cannot stand REM. One of the worst bands I have ever heard.

That entire list has merit for dullness.



Yet Radiohead, REM, Genesis and The Smiths are regarded as luminaries. Not a single album of any of those bands with the exception of Genesis pre-Collins is worth wasting time on.

I can listen to some Aerosmith when the mood strikes.

This thread is about overrated artists. I agree with most of old Jock's list. Especiallly REM. Did I mention I cannot stand that band.

Nirvana is really over-rated.



I think a lot of people are "fans" because its trendy.





Their songs get a shitload of views.

I agree. But, there are other bands more overrated than Nirvana.

Early Radiohead and REM were great...so were the Smith's.



The most overrated band of all time is the Beatles.

I´m fed up with Beatles songs but they must have sounded pretty great in the 60´s.

[Bricktop]

You weren't even born then, bozo.



So try to maintain your comments to things that are relevant to your life span.



There's a good little boy.

The Beatles were the spearhead of a social and cultural revolution that gave the youth of that era inspiration to break free from 50's dogma and conformity.



Their music challenged the status quo of society for all time and gave birth to the golden age of rock and roll.



There isn't a published song of theirs that is not known the world over. They still outsell many modern artists, and their songs are better and more listenable than most of the dross churned out by Britney, Taylor, Kanye and U2.
