You obviously don't know much about drumming old son. You can have any opinion you like about Phil Collins and his choice of songs, his singing etc, but believe me he is a f*****g great drummer.
As for the idea that The Beatles are overrated it's just too preposterous for words. They were the greatest innovators of popular music ever if you think their music simplistic try playing it or reporducing it almost impossible.
The first band that comes to mind when judging as overrated for me is Nirvana.
How they've dated might be up for discussion, but at the time? No frikkin way.
Cobain's mentality meant they would never have lasted until now, but had they recorded new stuff over the last 20 years their sound would have evolved. I'd love to know what they might have done.
Slaves. I like their cover of skepta but apart from the drummer being the singer, don't see anything too amazing about them
went to school with the guitar player, at a private school outside maidstone. Punk my ass. I remember me and my mates taking the piss out of a shit haircut he once had. That's the only reason why i remember him.

All that still don't mean that they weren't overrated though does it. Overrated by definition means that the artists in queastion have to be popular and well liked, else they'd be unpopular and underrated..
Why is it impossible to reproduce The Beatles' music? Can't understand that statement

Because John Lennon and George Harrison are dead. ;o)

The Beatles...overrated ??? - dont talk rubbish - next thing is you'll be saying One Direction are underrated.

Yeah, because I'm either a Beatles snob, or I'm a One Direction fan.

I can't speak for Laurie, but Isaac is a close friend and you couldn't hope to meet a nicer bloke. I don't think I've ever heard them claiming to be punk. Pretty sure that's a tag that's been given to them by Radio 1.
Slaves are ones of those bands that are stronger live than on the record, this is definitely where their strength lies. I'd recommend checking them out.

Look at the hairspray crap of the 80s. Grunge kill that off forever and bands like Nirvana deserve a lot of thanks for it! You can't say the same for Brit pop which never took off outside the UK.
How have they dated? I see kids born in this century wearing their iconic smily face t-shirt and noticed a massive Kurt Cobain mural when at Brighton train station.
I'm not even going to get into the Beatles which is the above times 1 million!

They used to support a mate of mine's pink band (they now support them) and played at various punk festivals. I guess that's where the tag came from but they aren't a punk band IMO, more rock.
The Grateful Dead. Absolute bollocks. If you want to waste 20 minutes of your life then listen to Dark Star live at Fillmore recorded in 1969. Their fans are OCD suffering condescending know all types too.All that Dicks Picks owning everything they ever recorded under the sun bore fest..Yawn yawn yawn Total Emperor's new clothes music .Move on there' s nothing here to see / hear.

You don't like them then?
I do have Workingman's Dead on the iPod but I've never got the rest of their stuff either.
Adele. Yeah, she's got a good voice and made some decent songs, I even like a couple and most of her stuff she writes, at least jointly,
However, the lemming population go mad for her and the exposure she gets is like having it shoved down your throat.
Came to mind when someone rang Radio 2 breakfast with things they thought the presenters wouldn't believe that they didn't like, one was Adele. And the presenters couldn't believe it (although it may have been tongue in cheek, hopefully).
Seems to be on hundreds of platters, almost all of them a bag of steaming sh*te. How does he spread himself so thin, and how on earth does he get away with it?

Agree. Good voice but there's just no melody to her songs. Usually the most basic drum beat or one note played on a piano.
Met her once at a gig (not hers). To think I could have pulled her and been living it up. Downside is I'd have to look at her everyday I guess.

No, you'd have been rolling in the deep, or at least in great mounds of fat.
I watched her Glastonbury act. The worst headliner I have ever seen, by a country mile. A short set, standard arrangement of the best known songs. But worst of all, punctuated by long rambling inane chat. Is this what she usually does, blather on to the audience for minutes on end as if its a group of chavs on a hen night? Shut up and sing, you silly cow.

Tbf I do that already, at least I'd be going out with a millionaire.
Adele is something rather special, without doubt the best living British female popular music singer of her generation.
I go to a lot of local gigs and although solo female artists are not particularly my cup of tea, I see them since these gigs tend to have 4 to 5 local acts. I'm not talking about down the pub either, this is £10-20 quid a ticket to see a show put together by music producers and dozens of people working behind the scenes to make it all come off. Anyway I must see at least one singer a month who is at least as good, if not better than Adele in terms of vocal ability. Adele's success is thanks to good marketing and luck to be the one picked by music producers, as opposed to her talent. I'm not knocking her as a singer but her voice really is not anything unique or special, there are thousands of other lasses who can emulate her or beat her but simply haven't had the break she has.

Yes she does. I took the wife to see Adele at the O2 in April & she did more chav chat than sing. Really annoying.

Same with Amy Winehouse, did not see the appeal.
If her fella hadn't fucked her about and then dumped her, then she wouldn't have had anything to write about. Adele is a good singer, thats it, but then again so are loads of birds, but because she writes as well as having a likeable personality I think people sling her on the greatness pedestal. For me the best current female vocalist is Beth Hart.

Compare her to beer Riv. She is like what the can of Fosters is to the draught pint of "Old Dairy".
Phil Collins - average drummer, poor singer
