Granted my knowledge of their catalogue is limited, but Hungry Like the Wolf is such a great song.

We were about to rattle off a dozen hugely popular singers and/or bands we consider somewhere between
overrated and outright awful, but there are already more than enough people here who think we're idiots.

Tried to listen to some country music a handful of times and it never gets any better.

Radiohead. I just don't get it.

Bruce Springsteen. Who decided he was "the boss" anyway? His songs sound better when other people sing them. Think "Blinded By The Light".

Hot Chip’s version of “Dancing in the Dark” is a case in point:

Have you listened to Eric Church? I know individuals who like his music, but not much else country. "Smoke a little smoke" is a song I would recommend, and "Drink in my hand," and possibly "Springsteen." He's supposed to be the best live country act in the business right now.

Personally, I'm more for Waylon Jennings, but he got his start in early rock n roll w/ Buddy Holly.

David Bowie was far more innovative and influential than the Beatles.
Alice Cooper is one of the greatest songwriters of all time.

Queen is the most overrated band of all time. There were never very popular. Then their singer dies and people start pushing them as a good band.
