redtodd 7 Posted June 17, 2011 Billie Jean is awesome. You have no soul. Some over-rated songs: Tom Sawyer - Rush Love Shack - B-52's Give it away - Red Hot Chili Peppers (AWFUL SONG) Faith - George Michael The Beatles Hotel California - Eagles Fire and Rain - James Taylor Losing My Religion - REM Most David Bowie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drizzay 723 Posted June 17, 2011 Smells Like Teen Spirit. I mean, it's alright...but when I think of the defining "grunge" song, 15-20 come to mind first. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745 Posted June 17, 2011 Def Leppard - Pour Some Sugar On Me I agree. Smells Like Teen Spirit. I mean, it's alright...but when I think of the defining "grunge" song, 15-20 come to mind first. I'll admit that back then, it kinda blew the doors off. In hindsight, it is not as "groundbreaking" or "visionary" as vh1 tries to make it out to be. I would also like to add... Anything by van halen. Most overrated band in the history of ever.

Tori Amos's version of "Smells Like Teen Spirit" is way better than Nirvanas. Van Halen overrated? "Everybody Wants Some" and "Running With The Devil" are crassic.

shovelheadt 71 Posted June 17, 2011 All but 1 or 2 songs by Led Zeppelin and all but 1 song by the Stones (Paint It Black). Seriously, every time I stumble across a station that's doing some 'Get The Led Out' program, I turn it immediately. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I absolutely love older/classic rock, but find both of these bands overrated. I agree to an extent. I am not a fan of Led Zeppelin at all. I like Over the Hill and Far Away and kind of like Stairway to Heaven, but the rest grate on me (can't stand Plant's voice). The Stones have grown on me over time, but I do not love them like others. I do like Paint It Black, Get Off of My Cloud and Sympathy for the Devil but that is about it. Well, I might like Start Me Up, only because I liked it when I was 8 years old.

JT 137 Posted June 17, 2011 In no particular order, as ranking them would actually contribute to their overrated status: Tom Sawyer - Rush (see below) Don't Stop Believing - Journey (ANYTHING by Rush or Journey is horribly overrated, unless it's rated as crap) Freebird- Lynrd Skynrd (Awful. Truly awful, on every level, from a band that was capable of better stuff) Stairway to Heaven - Led Zeppelin (That this is so often considered their masterpiece has always mystified me) Welcome to the Jungle - G&R (So bad it almost sounds like a parody of their good work) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
