Overrated Songwriters

[jjvikings08]

So has Mc Cartney for 40 years too.

I'm not gonna go through and point out every error, they're eassy enough to notice on your own.

 

[sport fan1]

That's a very clever use of homophones.

 

[CatherineVAMPIRE]

Bob Dylan
There I said it.

 

[bdkkevin02]

I read homophobe at first as well :laughing:

 

[ChefC]

Come on. Winding up Floyd fans is funny. Bite?

 

[asiudfhwie]

James Hetfield
Can't take any of his lyrics seriously and to think a lot of people dig to deep into them.

Ringo Starr
C'mon he's a drummer!

Phil Collins
I never got why so many people find his songs amazing.

 

[Whatof]

It's my favorite too assh*le.

I still find a "diehard Pink Floyd fan" who calls RABOTM "the beginning of the end" to be absolutely boggling to the mind.

 

[lillith25]

Actually I take it back Smith definitely >>>>>>>>>> Cave and Cohen.

Cave is a terrible singer. Not a good one like Phil Collins.

 

[Lucky Winner]

That's a very clever use of sarcasm, isn't it?

 

[bragor]

Jeff Lynne
Syd Barrett
Neil Peart

 

[Nitai]

Boring mathematical wankery. He was progressive for sure but the music lacks any real emotion imo.
And no, I'm not ****ing around.

 

[Harshu]

No one rates Ringo as a songwriter



I agree.

 

[periwinkle135]

Hmm. I dislike Corabichrist's lyrics, though it's probably better to treat them as a 'stealth parody'.
The Birthday Massacre are a bit boring for their apparent 'contemporary songwriting'.

 

[ReGgAe TiCo MaN]

Pwned.

But not pwned by you so much as by England's education system.

 

[Umm Zekiya]

He did apologise in advance:

 

[kingleo]

I agree with a lot of those. But the bolded ones? Pft, give me a break.

 

[princes]

Well I disagree, but aside from that this thread is about overrated songwriters not overrated singers and Cave is a way better songwriter than Collins.

 

[Lawrence D]

I'd agree with that one.

 

[praneetha]

That's what you'll never forgive him for?! He got off lightly.



Macca is comedy.
