  • What are you listening to at the moment?..

LT42 depends if you think you can rate something by merit or not I guess.

If I can only rate George Michael by the amount of records he sold, then I’d have to admit he’s not overrated.

But I think it’s possible to rate something by merit. If you can’t, then I’d also have to rate Mark Rothko as an artist (which I don’t) on the fact that his painting are popular and sell for a premium.

Thought all art was subjective…

      alistair they divide opinion. Bands that have been around as long as them and are still active are few and far between, the body of their work speaks for itself. Are they underrated? Daft question.

        Of course it is. Maybe the use of overrated is the issue. A genuine singer/songwriter/performer as successful as George Michael was, being labelled overrated is ridiculous but everyone is entitled to their erroneous opinion, mate.

          Good to see Michael Evis on the triangle and bongos.

          Am seeing Atjazz on Friday night Christian.

          Which is nice.
