Overrated musicians, artists, bands? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Cokies · 06-06-2002, 03:05 AM

There are a lot of bands and the like that get way too much credit for what they've done musically. Like....

Nirvana: The biggie, since everyone gets really defensive when I mention this. People worship Kurt Cobain, which is absurd, since he was a depressed drud addict. You know, there are so many other people in this world who have way worse problems than he EVER had. Who cares if he destroyed hair metal, somebody else would of done it sooner or later. Deeper meaning within his songs? Yeah, "Smells Like Teen Spirit", is essentially about deodorant. Pearl Jam's "Jeremy" is much more powerful. End of Nirvana rant.

The Rolling Stones: I find them very uninteresting. I'd choose The Beatles over the Stones ANY day. Besides, Mick Jagger is surprisingly annoying.

Bob Dylan: Could any other person's voice be that bad? The man's a great song writer, but he can't do them for himself. Example: "All Along the Watchtower", a Dylan song given to Jimi Hendrix. Just think of Dylan doing that song. Ick.

Sting: Ack, pooh! reunite with Copeland and Summers and actually make good music again!

Other band, artists I think are overrated, but don't want to delve into....

Radiohead
Weezer
Pink Floyd
The Strokes ( I love em', but they ARE)

I'll of some more later...

If she retires from 'show business' and makes another dramatic comeback I'll lose it!

And what's with those silly faces while she's singing?

Britney...dang that girl has NO TALENT!!!!

Yeah, and I agree with Macy Gray too.

DarleneIllyria · 06-07-2002, 12:00 AM

Britney Spears- Yeah, but I have to admit she has a lot more talent than Macy Gray!!! At least Brit can half way carry a tune

Whitney Houston is very overrated.

Shania Twain- God, she was everywhere when she was doing the Come On Over cd. Looks like Faith took her spot for awhile.

AllIWantIsYourClutch · 06-07-2002, 12:14 AM

*Nsync-they got Chilis commercials and even Snapple bottles pretending to be them, but they sing like women

Dream Street. They sound like the Dixie Chicks.

Madonna- That woman has issues.
