In your opinion, who is the most overrated singer/band/artist in modern music history and why?

And to make it a perfect menage a trois, there is Beyonce…

Milli Vanilli

Kid Rock

I feel so attached and in love with a dead celebrity. My love for anyone else is overshadowed by my love for him. What does this mean?

The early Beatles were overrated for pop-fizzy songs like “Love Me Do,” “Please Please Me,” “She Loves You” and “I Want to Hold Your Hand.”

Jefferson Airplane aka Jefferson Starship aka Starship had some good songs like “White Rabbit” and “Somebody to Love” but got pop-fizzy with songs like the unlistenable “We Built this City.”

Skrillex

Is it common for female doctors to examine male patients without another nurse present? Is there a difference in protocol for nurses and physician assistants?

Rebecca Black

Black Eyed Peas

I have a number of rappers in my “overrated” list. It’s not that I discriminate against the genre. My favorite rap acts include Tupac Shakur, Arrested Development, Public Enemy, Eminem, Nas and Outkast. But I’m a lyric man and I often find rap lyrics to be high on rhythm and rhyme but not all that compelling otherwise.

What is the degree of influence of Saudi Wahhabism on the modern Muslim world?

Garth Brooks did have good songs like “Shameless” and “The Thunder Rolls.”

These are artists sometimes called “overrated” for whom I do NOT agree: AC/DC, Aerosmith, Gary Barlow, Bon Jovi, Kurt Cobain, Celine Dion (I’m not crazy about all her songs but what an amazing voice!), Doors, Eminem, Jackie Evancho, Guns N' Roses, Journey, Led Zeppelin, Nirvana, Outkast, Steve Perry, Pink aka P!nk, Elvis Presley (in his better songs like “That’s All Right,” “Peace in the Valley,” “American Trilogy” and his amazing covers of “Blue Moon” and “Fever”), Prince, Queen, Rolling Stones, Axl Rose, U2, Neil Young

Kendrick Lamar

Is there any evidence to support the existence of people who have experienced "gangstalking"? Or is it a psychological phenomenon?

Beastie Boys

KISS is #9 on the Hated Band Index and the #10 worst band according to Ultimate Guitar.

Coldplay has had good songs like “Fix You,” “Viva La Vida,” “Clocks” and “Yellow” but they do seem overrated overall. Coldplay is #11 on the Hated Band Index and the #12 worst band according to Ultimate Guitar.

What do feminists mean when they say they want to ‘normalize’ menstruation and its discussion?

Barry Manilow heads my lists of concerts I’m not going to attend, and while I love some of his songs I’m not going to sit through a concert of Bob Dylan singing in that nasal monotone of his. Other concerts I’m not going to be attending include those of KISS, Maroon 5,

Insane Clown Posse

Taylor Swift is drop-dead gorgeous and I do like some of her songs, but still… how good can you be when you have to sing in your undies?

Do guys prefer big boobs or small boobs? Why?

On the brighter side for lingerie lovers, Madonna got the whole “singing in our undies” thing going.

Nirvana is #19 on the Hated Band Index.

Billie Eilish

THE MOST OVERRATED ACTS IN MODERN MUSIC HISTORY

Miley Cyrus

Megan Fox

Jonas Brothers

by Michael R. Burch

Barry Manilow

I’m a longtime music lover and I’m very liberal, loving the best hard rock, soft rock, pop, blues, R&B, soul, jazz, country, folk, classical and opera. I’m not a huge fan of rap, but I do have favorite rap songs as well. However there are singers, bands and other musical artists who seem overrated to me…

Ed Sheeran

Billy Ray Cyrus

Nicki Minaj

U2 is #4 on the Hated Band Index and the #7 worst band according to Ultimate Guitar. But I like a good number of their songs and disagree here.

Wilco

Piet Mondrian

NSYNC

Limp Bizkit is the second most-hated band of all time, with a 96.79 score on the Hated Band Index, and is also the #2 worst band of all time according to Ultimate Guitar.

Radiohead is #8 on the Hated Band Index.

Justin Bieber is a good-looking guy who can carry a tune. Does that make him a megastar?

Maroon 5 and Adam Levine

Roseanne Barr

Chris Brown

Weezer

Imagine Dragons

Creed is the #3 most-hated band of all time on the Hated Band Index and the #4 worst band of all time according to Ultimate Guitar.

Nickelback is the most hated band of all time, with a near-perfect 99.99 score on the Hated Band Index, and is also the #1 worst band of all time according to Ultimate Guitar. David Grohl said that if you play a Nickelback song backwards, you’ll hear the Devil, but if you play it forwards, even worse, you’ll hear Nickelback!

K.C. and the Sunshine Band don’t just play the same three chords over and over again, they sing the same three or four words over and over and over again.

Tiny Tim

Britney Spears

Kesha aka Ke$ha

Jenny McCarthy

Green Day is #12 on the Hated Band Index and the #13 worst band according to Ultimate Guitar. They are also the #2 worst band according to LA Weekly.

Grateful Dead

Mumford & Sons is the #5 on the Hated Band Index and the #17 most overrated artists according to Ranker.

Tool

The Osmonds

Katy Perry

Dr. Dre

Vanilla Ice

Bob Dylan is overrated as a vocalist, if anyone rates him as such, but he has written many good and great songs. Dylan said he’s more of a poet than a musician, and I agree. Dylan is the #6 most-hated band of all time on the Hated Band Index and he’s not even a band!

Spin Doctors are #20 on the Hated Band Index and also the #20 worst band according to LA Weekly.

Lady Gaga produced great songs like “Paparazzi,” “Poker Face,” “Bad Romance” and “Shallow.” But, as with Madonna, it often seems more about the spectacle than the music.

The Dave Matthews Band is #10 on the Hated Band Index and the #1 worst band according to LA Weekly. They made it a clean sweep by being the #16 worst band according to Ultimate Guitar and the #22 overrated artists according to Ranker.

Kanye West is best known for dissing Taylor Swift, no?

Lou Reed

Korn is #15 on the Hated Band Index and the #20 most overrated artists according to Ranker.

Nick Cannon

Jennifer Lopez

Madonna put out some great songs like “This Used to Be My Playground,” “Ray of Light,” “Justify My Love,” “Express Yourself,” “Like a Virgin,” “Like a Prayer” and “Papa Don’t Preach.” But somehow it became more about the spectacle than the music.

Pearl Jam is #17 on the Hated Band Index and the #7 worst band according to LA Weekly.

Ariana Grande has an amazing vocal range but her songs haven’t wowed me. I do like “Bang Bang” and “The Way.”

Sex Pistols

Rihanna has had good songs such as “Stay,” “Diamonds,” "We Found Love" with Calvin Harris, and "Love the Way You Lie" with Eminem.
