Overrated doesn't mean shit. Just there's an abyss between reputation and reality.

Cannot agree with you in the slightest, and I can think of far more bands that fit your "Possibly the most overrated band ever." Oh yes. Oh yes, indeed!!
You're right. That whole Britpop ''''''''''phenomenon'''''''''' was massively overrated. I always thought New Order never lived up to the hype either. In the early 90s I was a big fan but even I felt queasy at shit like https://imgur.com/fyZqmw3 I hereby promise to keep my stupid gob shut till I know what the f**k I'm talking about.

OMG! You turning into a Saint or summat!?
"You're right" - thank you, and I'll take that as a compliment.
In the meantime, here is one of my favourite Beach Boys numbers...................
Yeah, I'm doing a course to be more positive, stop swearing and find the good in everything. It is total and utter f**king shit.
I prefer the Bangles' cover https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04HSg0YZi9E
Worst cover ever has to be Russ Abbot with Joy Division's Atmosphere. Totally lost te pathos of the original.

You are the bees knees and not over rated at all.
Not over rated ,not rated much at all by many but very much rated by me.Holland by the BB's.
Electronic and, um, Electronic. The only band to START with a Best Of.
Saturday gigs by Mott the Hoople on Sounds of the Seventies.
Interesting to hear the line "Down to the Roundhouse on a Sunday Afternoon."
I was a bit young for that but can you imagine a venue doing regular Sunday afternoon gigs?
The Essential Phil Spector. Genuis.
+ Mott t Hoople
