Someone please take this to another thread. Beach Boys so aren’t overrated!

An overrated band is Wham!. Very hyped but basically no real substance.

Reminds me of Beatlebug a few years ago. It was fun watching her fall into the strong grasp of Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin and Bowie and never escape.   

Haha yes! She liked nothing but Beatles and (I think) George Winston…now she’s moving on The Who and Hendrix and others…

If you like Here, There And Everywhere you will like Pet Sounds. Similar vibes.

I've been up on the mountain, and I've seen his wondrous grace,
I've sat there on the barstool and I've looked him in the face.
He seemed a little haggard, but it did not slow him down,
he was humming to the neon of the universal sound.

Do you have a streaming service, like Spotify or Apple Music? Not very ethical, but then again I don’t think the Beach Boys are in dire need of our financial support right now anyways ahdn_john_08_gif

Darn. I’m out of ideas.

Anyways, we should probably stay-on-topicso

I think Tame Impala are pretty overrated.

Yeah Tame Impala gets heavily overrated by people who compare it to Pink Floyd and The Beatles. I did see them one time and it was a really good show I must say. Still they are a highly overrated band.

A real and quick conversation I had yesterday with my good friend. Out Of The Blue they ask:

”Were Queen really that good?”

”Why do you ask?”

”What I see people saying on Facebook.”

”No, they’re the most overrated band of all time.”

(conversation ends)

I expect to suffer for this as you all jump to his defence……….But I reckon the most overrated act is Bruce Springsteen……..Born in the USA…….Yes! OK! but what else???

No one I spoke to today could think of a single song other that BITUSA……..And Santa Klaus is coming to town.

There is Born To Run which isn’t on the Born In The USA album but yeah, i agree with you 100%. In fact, i think John Mellencamp is overrated as well.

If you're reading this, you are looking for something to do.

Springsteen had a pretty great run of albums, but none of them strike me as incredible.

Yes! My history teacher is obsessed with him and made us listen to two of his songs and I can’t see why he likes him so much.

No no no Bruce Springsteen is UNDERRATED. The Wild The Innocent and the E-Street Shuffle? Darkness On The Edge Of Town? Nebraska? Not to mention Springsteen has a Dylanesqe way of seeing covers of his songs top the charts. Blinded By The Light? Atlantic City? Yep its all Bruce Springsteen. The fact that the only music yall seem to know is Born In The USA and Born To Run proves he is severely underrated.
