I always get the feeling that Lauryn has serious mental problems, which makes me cut her more slack than I do with some. Still, it's a shame how she's squandered her talent.

You can add Santana's Smooth to list of overrated songs and Supernatural one of the most overrated albums.

Wow, I love that song. It has a really catchy intro and the whole song is upbeat and something you can shake your head to and pretend to sing along.

I've always hated Stevie Nicks' voice (I find it creepy as hell) and have always wished that the good songs that she sang were sung by better singers.

All of Fleetwood Mac has pretty sub-par voices on their own, yet, they were all strangely magic together. They've just not been the same since Christine McVie left though, she was always my fav.

She was mine too.

I don't have all that much interest in their solo work though.

My favorite Fleetwood Mac era is the Bob Welch era. Bare Trees is my favorite, or close to favorite, album ever.

I love the Stevie/Lindsey stuff but the chill which set into their relationship (and the band as a whole) takes a toll...a lot of their 80's songs are very good, but also very remote.

While I understand the impact CCR had and I think some of their songs are very powerful (like Fortunate Son), I think John Fogerty's voice sounds like a dental drill, and I hate "Bad Moon on the Rise" and am annoyed by their "Proud Mary."

I can't stand listening to John Cougar Mellencamp. I turn the radio or TV if his voice comes on. I loathe "Hurts So Good" and "Ain't That America," and "Jack and Diane" is so empty and cutesy with the hand-clapping.

Someone once said that John Mellencamp was the poor man's Bruce Springsteen. (Un)fortunately, I've never been interested enough in either of them to figure out if such a statement were true.

Another UO:

As much as I appreciate the TV One series, Unsung, for providing a platform for the artists that VH1's Behind the Music wouldn't touch with a ten-foot pole (even though Unsung has since surpassed Behind the Music in quality), I am not a fan of their increasingly loose interpretation of what an 'unsung' artist/group is. For every criminally underrated talent that is Billy Preston (who peaked in the early-mid 70s), they feature the likes of Gerald Levert - who enjoyed a fruitful R&B career until his death. Either they stick to the definition of 'Unsung' or they ought to change the title to be justify their inclusion of all old-school R&B and hip hop artists.

I don't like falsetto. The only person I like it on is Roy Orbison and sometimes the Bee Gees.

I HATE falsetto. Hate Hate. It took me a long time to consider the BeeGees as talented simply because I couldn't get past their falsetto (and I still prefer often songs they have written and produced for others).

I don't like Rascal Flatts.

Wrong thread.

I love Roberta Flack's "Killing Me Softly," but I prefer the Fugees cover.

I agree, Carl!

Here are some UOs of mine:

While I admit that I still need to listen to the rest of both albums (damn iTunes cards, I'm young and poor, you know!) I prefer Guns N' Roses' Use Your Illusion I/II albums to Appetite for Destruction. So much so, that my TWoP screen name is UseYourIllusion.

I love ABBA, but I think I love Roxette just a little more.

I love Born in the USA ("My Hometown" in particular makes me tear up--especially now that I'm living away from home and starting my career--UO, that's my fave song from the album, probably, that or "Working on the Highway"), but my favorite song is from his Human Touch album: "I Wish Were Blind." Obscure? Yes, but a GREAT song.

That being said, I prefer John Mellencamp (the "Cougar" was gone forever after 1991--he never wanted it there, anyway) to Springsteen--and no matter how many of you here don't like him, I'll love him and his music forever--he's my Bloomington, Indiana boy! Of course I love him. That, and another UO: Some of his best songs are actually AFTER the album Scarecrow.

I would listen to Southern Rock over a lot of other music without complaint.

I love Duran Duran--the 80s, 93 comeback, 2004 comeback, it doesn't matter--I love them.

Some of Van Halen's best songs are from the Hagar era ("Love Walks In", anyone? "Feels So Good"?), and he deserves a lot of credit for the years he's been with the band.

I will listen to older rock music over most modern music any day, ESPECIALLY rap/R&B/hip hop. For the most part, that stuff's just not my taste of music.

I bought the Brady Bunch Greatest Hits CD when I was 9, and I..um...actually kind of sort of like some of the songs on there. Not in a serious way, but still, they're kind of cheesy and fun (even their version of "American Pie"...well, in an awkward way...that's unfortunately the first version of the song I ever heard...remember, I was a 9 year old obsessed Brady fan at the time).

Okay, now STOP laughing and pointing at me! Please .

I've yet to be sick of Gotye's Somebody I Used To Know even though they've run that song into the ground. Maybe because I think of it as The Human League's Don't You Want Me, version 2012, but I still bump that song as if came out a day ago.
