Having spent the last couple of days on t'tractor cutting hedges, I have listened to much radio...And I just wondered something...

Who, does everyone else think is (are) the most Overrated Music Legend™...

NO SLANGING MATCHES!!... biggrin.gif ...

One person's "I don't like" could be another's fave artist in the world ever...

So an "I hate blah-blah because he's c*ap." is not allowed...

The three I've wondered about, off the top of my head...

Stevie Wonder.

Van Morrison.

Bob Dylan.


I can listen to Stevie Wonder songs done by someone else. I just bought an old version of "Isn't She Lovely". But no, I don't get it...

Van Morrison...Nope...I got nothin...

Bob Dylan. I love him in the Travelling Wilburys...And without him there would be no Tom Petty...(Discuss)...But I really really can't see the fuss...

There are more, but these will do for now... tongue.gif ...

Anyone else?...

Wow...I wasn't starting a "Let's bash Stevie Wonder" thread, but it does seem like I hit a nerve... biggrin.gif ...

I have to say about the piano playing thing though...Yes, it's cool that he and Ray Charles can play the piano...

But...So can I...(Yes I know I'm not blind laugh.gif )...

It's not actually that hard...

And if you can touch type...Like I can tongue.gif ...Then they can play the piano...'Cause it's all about hand placement...Oo-er...



Trying to think of other "Legends" that I don't get...

Oooh!!...The Beatles...I love some of the songs, but really?...Not all that...

And Led Zepplin...Some good...Some bad...Don't think they deserve all the hype...But Trampled Under Foot is ace... biggrin.gif ...

I'll agree with you on the beatles, but not Zeppelin.
