Most underrated musician - Michael Head, brilliant songwriter and Noel G knows it!

Neil Finn also a genius songwriter although perhaps everyone knows it so isn't underrated.

Most Overrated Band: UB40 - Anyone who starts out with 'One in 10' and 'Earth Die Screaming', and allows themselves to degenerate to stuff like, 'There's a Rat in the Kitchen' and 'Red, Red Wine' are, in my humble, c..ts.

Most Overrated Solo Artist: Taylor Swift - And not only that love, you ain't a looker either!

Most Overrated Football Team: Spurs!

Could be argued that UB40 are very underrated, if they're remembered for the dross they released after they became a covers band, and their astonishing Signing Off is forgotten about. That's what they were capable of.

If I was to name overrated

For under-rated I would nominate the rock/blues singer PAUL RODGERS. The honey-and-gravel voice of Free and Bad Company, he spent many decades playing with, and being courted by, rock royalty. He finally succumbed to Queen, but sensibly insisted on being billed separately (lest people think he was trying to replace Freddy Mercury). He's durable too, having survived two strokes.

Elton John: surely the inspiration for Vic Reeves' singing in the club style.

Queen spoiled my enjoyment of winning the league more than Leeds did when that execrable song was played at full time.

Overrated Band: Muse. I just don't get it. They're seen as some sort of technical metal band but they aren't that technical and aren't that heavy. And that singer... f**king hell. What an awful voice. I can't believe people listen to him by choice. Absolute shit.

Overrated Solo Artist: Robbie Williams. Pop-rock dirge. Just shite. Can't sing. Has a personality but it's the personality of a w@nker. Shit songs. He's an entertainer but only for people who are entertained by nonsense. But he's not a legit musician.

Most Overrated Club: Newcastle. They get a lot of attention because their dickhead fans like to take their tops off. But they're really f**k all. The Spurs of the North. All those fans but basically no success. And whenever they go down, they get all the TV/media attention.

UB40 changed as they aged and their career progressed as did Queen, The Jam, Elton, so many artists.

As for Taylor Swift, I would!

Yeah, don't get why that guy is lauded as some kind of guitar god. Could probably learn an album of their tunes in a few hours if I wanted.

Over Rated
Good shout for Muse. Controversially, I was thinking of Stone Roses. One, albeit, great album then nothing of consequence.
Elton John for the individual. Can't sing but that can apply to MacCartney, Rod Stewart

Under Rated
Wolf Alice
Charli XCX

Football
Has to be Spurs. Still dining out on 61/62

I was a bit like that with Elton and then you look at the tunes he wrote and I was persuaded to see him at the O2 - it was excellent, he was great, and way better than I expected or hoped.

Red Hot Chili Peppers for me. One approach that they've wrung out for 40+ years. Flea's sound, John Frusciante is doing interesting EDM and Chad Smith is perfectly reasonable. But the songwriting is just so dated now, and Kiedis is an ar*e of the highest order.

As a single artist, Moby. One great album - I mean, REALLY great album, but the rest? Meh.

Overrated club is ManU. Haven't won the PL in 12+ years, and the CL in almost 20 years.

It's always noisiest at the shallow end

UB40 fell severely from grace.
Signing off is a great album (IMO), some early non album singles too. Even Present Arms was quite good. But from Labour of Love vol 1 (did they need vols 2, 3 & 4 ?), they pretty much remained a covers band. Until of course they had a family feud and became 2 covers bands.

Most overated band for me (Tin hat on) - Radiohead.

I would have the Monkees (the songs released under that name at least) as one of the most underrated brands...

I always thought Radiohead were shit and I maintain that all their popular albums were. But when they fked that all off and did Kid A they changed.

Musically they are unbelievably good. I'm not sure I actually like much of it but there is shit they do that is on a different level.

Not a band ii love but one I can respect.
