Grrr. It's annoying when people say The Beatles are overrated. They're great musicians and songwriters and people fail to accept that. But, they weren't the only ones. Genesis is my second favourite band and they are also great. Tonnes of bands are as good as each other.
The thing people forget is: it wasn't just their music that made them famous. It was their story. The story of the Beatles is easily the most exciting tale that has ever emerged. So many interesting things happened to them. In fact, their story IS BETTER than their music. Their music is brilliant, but the tale of how everything came together is extremely fascinating.
To be honest, the only act I truly think is overrated is Elvis. He is not The King, he's not that perfect, although he was a top-notch showman.
TT454,, So your opinion is Elvis was overrated ? I have never heard of ANY OTHER group on your list that did things like what Elvis did. Elvis came back to his car one day, an elderly lady was in and admiring it. Elvis asked her if she liked it, she said yes, he took her down and bought her one that same day. Thats more than a KING of Rock and Roll, Thats a Truly Good person. Oh and I see you have the molester jackson, he sure as hell was not the king of anything except his own little world where he get kids drunk and do weird shit with them. and he was the "self proclaimed" king of pop,, yea right. Elvis was called The King by the millions of people that LOVED his music. molester jackson had to proclaim himself cause no one else would.
-_- I want to upvote you for what you said about Elvis because that's awesome, but I don't because of what you said about Michael Jackson.
The allegations were never proven. I don't usually get into this celebrity bollocks but I actually did some research into that case and I see no reason to believe he was anything more than a weird guy who wanted to give back to the community because he'd had his childhood stolen away from him, and he was thus feared and labled a child molester because he was so odd.
Most overrated band/artist of all time?
