    ......will there be explanations for your choices here, or is this just a case of lazily listing off whatever comes into your head?

    If it's the latter, then I nominate whoever your favourite musician/group is. He/she/they is/are RUBBISH.

    Most overrated films is also on the front page.

    Seriously, let people like what they like without being all superior.

    Sure, you may think that Dylan has got undeserved praise or whatever but a hell of a lot of people find his music enjoyable, interesting and possibly more than that. Likewise with everything else that shows up in these threads.

    Bob couldn't sing to save his life. Brilliant songwriter though. I liked the Beatles in my teens (now 52) but that asshole John Lennon really put me off them (I still enjoy some of their songs) in much the same way Bono does with U2.

    Bob Marley (mostly because its caused white people to grow dreadlocks).
    Oasis (very average band).
    Fleetwood Mac (bland).
    Almost every singer-songwriter that has ever lived, especially modern Irish ones like Mundy (horrible, boring, self-indulgent, bollox).

    Yeah, you're right actually. The main thing with music is not to close your mind to it. I would have a wide variety of tastes, from ABBA to Led Zeppelin, but Dylan's voice really grates on me. And as for those Gallaghers.........:mad:

    Overrated is an overused word that overopinionated numpty's with an overinflated sense of their own opinion use over and over again to overstate how overly displeased they are with something. Over and out.

    Anyway, U2 are way overrated.

    Ah, come on. It would be like starting a most over rated football team with Man U and Barcelona etc. and waiting for the avalanche.

    Don't get me wrong though, it should certainly make for a good thread.
