This list topic is no more or less opinion-based than any other.
Interesting how a negative spin (ie: "over-rated") turns some people off.

I guess I just went for some picks who strike me as mediocre at best
despite voluminous critical praise or wide mainstream appeal.
Again...just an opinion.

P.S. Chuck...thanks for the addition of Ryan Adams. Good call!!

"overrated in the same way as The Killer and Lily Allen?  Just what do you
mean by "overrated"?
