Sia is pretty underrated imo


To be fair I'm pretty sure that guy just listed every pop artist he could think of.
Coldplay

Ed Sheeran

Arctic Monkeys

Michael Jackson

Oh no you didn't

I live and breathe Queen :redface:


Honestly the main reason I wrote Queen is just because of this dumbass meme that I alluded to in my post.

Spoiler



I mean Queen are OK and I'm in favour of psychedelics, but I wouldn't call that passage an example of lyrical genius or anything.

I have actually listened to some songs by every individual artist/band I listed. I have read extensively on forums about most of these artists and how people rate them. I can say with some certainty that they are overrated.

OK so people who don't understand why Taylor Swift is so successful, it's because they don't understand the historical context or music


Yes, because a singer who debuted in 2008 has such a bounty of historical context.

And no, anyone capable of logical thought process has their reasons for disliking a certain band or artist, but you should at the very least appreciate why they are likeable by others.

I don't enjoy songs entirely comprised of screamed vocals, but that doesn't mean I can't understand why others might enjoy them. Broaden your mind a little.

There are bands that I don't like yet I can understand why others like them. Then there are other bands that I don't like and I don't understand why people like them either cause I don't think they're any good. Hence this thread. You can take your 'broaden you mind' BS elsewhere.

You've yet to provide reasons for why they are no good whatsoever.

And "overrated" does not mean "no good at all", FYI.

"Long preludes to their songs are boring" is not a justification founded in objective reason. Take two.

Take zero because I don't need another PMS-y little girls acting preachy. If you don't like the thread, don't post, simple as that. This isn't a musical theory class in here.
