A few minutes ago, I was listening to the radio when a song came on, recorded by a band that I personally think is very overrated. Because one of my friends is a huge fan of this particular band, and because I don’t want to start a flame war here, I’ll leave the band’s name out of it. Suffice it to say that they are considered a “classic” rock band and have a lot of fans. I’ve never understood why that particular band is popular. Their lyrics aren’t bad, but nothing earth-shaking. Their instrumentals are OK as well, but I have to admit I think all their songs sound very similar (moreso than most bands). I figure if there are bands out there I don’t care for, but which are nonetheless quite popular, that’s probably a pretty common line of thinking. Are there bands or celebrities who are really popular, perhaps in an area of music you like, but you just don’t care for? Are they overrated in your opinion? Share.
