overrated/underrated

[mate_spawn_die]

daft punk = overrated
they are cool and i love some of their music... but c'mon... it's not like they are electronic gods or anything.

the monkees = underrated
when most people think of the monkees it's "last train to clarksville" and shit... but they made some really great songs. this is a psych masterpiece (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdd5xI9l7Ns). i guess people just think they are some kinda talentless boy band who never played their instruments... which couldn't be further from the truth. fuck davy jones. mike, peter and mickey had tons of talent.

that's all i can think of for now...

your turn!

[Dorothy Wood]

arf! yeah, you just have to watch Head and you realize that the monkees were pretty cool. mike nesmith especially rules.

I think a shit ton of things are overrated, the only thing that comes to mind right now is LCD Soundsystem. I just don't get the appeal. I already made a thread about that though. also, the hold steady. don't get it. oh yeah, and amy winehouse

underrated: Rush!

cant agree with the daft punk comments. They are one of the greatest electronic dance acts of our time and their live show is way better than any of their contemparies

soooooo agree with the winehouse being overrated-she's headlining a festival i'm going to later this year and everyone i'm going with and me are totally wishing she'll drop out in time to get someone decent in!
also seriously overrated-anything along the lines of Neyo (or however the fuck you spell it) Usher, Rhianna etc etc etc. oh and Mariah Carey-i don't get how she's sells so many goddam records-pile of shite
And Mark Ronson-he good but not that good

underrated-shy child-but they are a personal favourite
elo!!

[jabumbo]

underrated: Rush!

i think the correct way to say this is...



underrated: the technical ability of rush


correctly rated: the singing talent of rush

I like Daft Punk tons - I just don't think they're as innovative as bands like Boys Noize (http://www.myspace.com/boysnoize). Often too poppy for me, not that I can't appreciate a good pop song.

Had a listen to that link- pretty good but i am intrigued why you think they are more innovative than the Punk. Do you think the Dafts arent innovative?

[Lyman Zerga]

overrated: the beatles (again), nirvana

underrated: the rest

[Guy Incognito]

the amount of times i have heard somebody say that the beatles are overrated is getting to such proportions is that i am starting to think they are actually underrated.

Look, i get that some people arent moved by all lot of their stuff but the fact the impact they had on many forms of music is why they could be "overrated". But as far as i am concerned they are the fucking nuts.

[Lyman Zerga]

too much words

[TurdBerglar]

the beatles had a lot of shitty songs(A LOT!). they had some good shit, but a whole lot of it was just plain shit. and the things they did that garnered much of their critical and commercial praise was being done by other bands(better bands). the only real thing i see that they did that was better than all of their contemporaries is the recording techniques they used.

of course i didn't grow up in the 60's so this is just all speculation based on the music i listen to from that time.

[Waus]

Had a listen to that link- pretty good but i am intrigued why you think they are more innovative than the Punk. Do you think the Dafts arent innovative?

I guess what I'm saying is they capitalized and put into "single-able" form music that had been pioneered by others. That by itself is admirable, and I really do like their music, I just don't think they are as original as people give them credit for.

[mate_spawn_die]

they are very good... but gods?

So, you're saying Chemical Brothers are better than Daft Punk live?

I saw them over summer, and it was underwhelming to say the least - I left a good 40 minutes before the end of their set, they lost a fair portion of the crowd. Daft Punk though - awesome.

Also, Boys Noize = great

no i was putting the dafts , the chemicals and orbital in the same bracket of being the best electronic dance around. I have seen the chems live more so i am a bit biased i was trying to say that they are one of the best dance acts around as are the chemicals

well just read what turd wrote cause thats how it is

[Guy Incognito]

Dont be such a fucking big head. I am "trying to have contact with you" because you dismissed what i originally posted and because you told me to fuck off and i didnt appreciate it when all i wanted was a discussion about the beatles. If you agreed with someone else then why didnt you just say that instead of pissing me off.
I actually havent had much contact with you and wont lose any sleep if that situation stays the same. I dont give a shit who or who doesnt speak to me.

Who needs to calm down now?

Dont talk about either of my dads please. One is dead and i dont like to be reminded of that in jest by you or anyone else for that matter.
Seeing as you know i have two dads, i would guess that you have been spending your time researching before posting the above, i suggest you spend your time more constructively and try and get over your emotional/vagina disorder that has been mentioned above.
I wish i had said what i first thought, all i was trying to say is that in a thread such as this the beatles are a really easy target because they are so popular and ingrained in history. That is all.But i didnt and then it all got sweary.
I am over our little exchange yesterday and will admit that my behaviour wasnt great, you could do the same if you like, i wont hold a grudge. I'd just prefer to move on and if i speak to you again, i will be as civil as possible.

i noticed in the beatles songs they pronounce been as bean. do they still say that in the uk? like "how have you bean"? or is it just certain people or what? or is just how the beatles sing? do they only say "bean" when they sing or when they talk?

nope, that means my fingers got six packs by now and i got the same hometown like schwarzenegger so you better give up before you EVEN make a bigger assclown out of yourself

i was including the songs they both wrote for the beatles as well. I just think mcartney was more of a craftsman whereas lennon was a bit random and could be capable of writing summat genius like imagine but also knock out a fucking racket like revolution number 9 and be considered more influential etc but macca could do all sorts of styles and make them sound good. Some of his solo stuff is awful but i never thought he got the praise for that. He got lots of money tho so i guess he dont mind.

John had one great solo album, period. Everything else was mixed at best (Imagine, Double Fantasy) and downright limp at worst (Mind Games,
Rock and Roll).

Well, I think "Imagine" and "Gimme Some Truth" are okay songs that are wildly overrated. "Imagine" is actually pretty stupid, even.

"Jealous Guy" is pretty terrific, and "How Do You Sleep?" is good but kind of mean spirited. "Crippled Inside" is okay but feels kind of false
after JL/POB. "I Don't Wanna Be A Soldier" is a riff dressed up as a song. Etc.

i always thought that lennon tried to live up to his renegade revolutionary tag and when it worked it was awesome "working class hero" for example but when it didnt it was either a racket or sub standard rock and roll. Wheara mccartney just carried on writing good (but not always) songs. Apart from that thing with the fucking frog chorus. awful.

[abcdefz]

Frog chorus... frog chorus....

Yeah, Macca hit some real lows, but his best stuff is just fantastic. I'd put Band on the Run up against pretty much any album, any day.
And he's one of the great bass players.

I probably overpraise him a bit because so many people shit on him, and it's not right. And it's not like John was a saint; he was unfaithful
to two wives, pretty much abandoned a son, and admittedly hit a woman (or women).

Oh, but anyway -- yeah, I think that's a pretty good assessment.

McCartney is a workman, so he keeps cranking out. Sometimes he's more inspired than others, and it's magic. Sometimes he doesn't seem
inspired at all (or overreaches) and it's awful.

"Veronica" is pretty good.

A good compilation from his 90's and 00's albums could be pretty terrific.

There are a couple that I'm not familiar with. Or I've forgotten them. But that covers pretty much the same era; if All the Best had been
two discs instead of one.

Sgt. Pepper's is overrated.

Agreed, i always thought Sgt Pepper wasnt their best. When i was 13 my music teacher played us the whole album on the 20th anniversary and he just wnet on and on about each track and it was the longest lesson and thats always put me off.
White Album is best - i like it cos its so random.

I love the White Album too. If I could only listen to one Beatles album that would be it.

waay overrated: timbaland

Most of his old production is cool though.

I think we can all agree that they're overrated just because of how hyped music critics make them but that doesn't mean that they're not an amazing band.

i have never been a massive jay z fan - i am not even a massive hip hop fan, there are only a few acts i know well but i was just really impressed with his performance last night, didnt think it would be that exciting but it was surprisingly ace.

Jay-Z is definitely someone you should dig deeper into. He's knocked out two undisputed classics and a slew of other solid albums.

Wouldnt it be good if someone combined the beatles and Jay-z - that would be awesome;)

Be sure to give some feedback after you listen. I like to hear what people who don't listen to much rap think of certain albums.

As for your question, yes, yes it would be.

Ok will do, i have listened to lots of different hip hop but never got involved as deeply as i would have liked. Probably due to cost and lack of knowledge

overrated electric ladyland
underrated axis: bold as love


i noticed in the beatles songs they pronounce been as bean. do they still say that in the uk? like "how have you bean"? or is it just certain people or what? or is just how the beatles sing? do they only say "bean" when they sing or when they talk?

this was a serious question (seriously ignorant perhaps?) and i expect serious answers from you brits.

[thegoodmrbrodie!]

i just said it to myself and it sounded fine. then i said it like bin and that sounded fine too.

Could we have a definition of 'overrated/underrated', please?

Are we talking about it from a critical sense or is it based on your own opinion?

How can artists such as David Bowie, Interpol, Jay-Z etc be underrated when they continuously receive plaudits from media publications and the public?
