Most Overrated Music Star?

[thesshhh]

Who do you think is the most overrated music star ever? For me it has to be Elton John

[nailit]

//you're too young Nailit//
I know, Im just a whipper snapper ;-)
Funny enough though I did like Paul McCartney with Wings and George Harrison solo. Could never stand John Lennon.

[Peter Pedant]

// He was only one of the main members of the biggest group of all time.// Beatle Paul

one of many arteestes who didnt realise that the sum was worth more than the parts ( or individual arteests) - altho I also blame Beatle John who when he was nt composing, was determined to hehave like a duck

Elton John - brilliant.

Kanye West - rubbish. Freddie Mercury thought so too.

[nailit]

LOL naomi. That ^ was great :-)

[Peter Pedant]

oh god blimey - I didnt realise Kanye cdnt sing ....
no wonder he (K) is so insecure

Seen Elton live twice,he was really good. One time Billy Joel , his co-star in the double bill had been taken ill & couldn't perform. So Elton just went on and did a double length act . A true professional.

Shows the difference, doesn't it? :-). In case anyone was ever in any doubt...

Why are people arguing over what is someones opinion?....an opinion is a personal thing and is therefore a correct answer for that individual. I hate the colour pink...there are plenty out there who love it..no one is right or wrong because it is an individuals opinion.

Great clip, Naomi. Kanye West's Bohemian Rhapsody was awful.
Some of his stuff is pretty good though- Golddigger, Touch the Sky (though best bits are the samples)- and this one is rather good (apart from the Jay Z raps)

[naomi24]

Does nothing for me. Nothing unique there and no particular talent. It could be anyone singing.

[fiction-factory]

That's fine. i like it. Millions do. Many more millions don't or don't care. Probably true of most artists. There's hundreds of other artists i think are far superior but I think it does no harm to listen to some stuff that you might assume you would dislike

[-Talbot-]

I've reported the answers that say Macca and Bowie are overrated.

I have used the 'Pure stupidity' option.

[Old_Geezer]

They're all overrated these days. I'm unsure how one would pick amost overrated one.

[Old_Geezer]

...a most...

[-SharonA-]

Lionel Richie!!
He is not very popular in the U.S.

[Togo]

Doesn't Leo Sayer make anyone else retch, and that dopey bird Pullin Her Face or whatever?

[Old_Geezer]

McCartney is definitely overrated. Since the Beatles split up it's difficult to see anything that was particularly good. Mull of Kintyre maybe.

[nailit]

Togo, I knew someone who had met Leo Sayer. They said he was a right arrogant little ***
