Let's see. I find these to be the most overrated:
1 Karn Evil 9 - I was forced to listen to it once. The longest half an hour so far in my life. 2 - ... nothing comes close, not even more ELP
Saperlipopette!]
im with you here, I think KE9 is overrated as a tune and ELP as a whole, I just don't get the attraction to this band I mean the musicians are good I just find the music tedious and soulless I don't even like lakes singing with KC and I'm a fan!

Now appeared twice here already.
Is there even anyone who takes this song seriously?
I think it's fun; that's probably as high a rating as it gets.

Same here.
Seamus is overrated! and More Fool Me! and Obladioblada! and Two Princes by Spin Doctors! Why? Because I don't like them very much!

OK, I like "The Musical Box", but am I the only one who prefers side A of "Foxtrot" (or at least "Watcher of the Skies", "Time Table" and "Get'em out by Friday"). Does it mean I also qualify "The Musical Box" as an overrated prog song?

Pink Floyd (except "Fearless") 90% of ELP (although I kinda like some stuff) approximately 50-60% of Jethro Tull
every thing by Genesis after Peter G. "Golf Girl" Caravan (I hate this f**kin' song!) Moody Blues

^Kidding or not, for something to be overrated it has to be rated highly first. A consensus that agrees to its greatness. PA rates Genesis songs such as The Cinema Show, Dancing With The Moonlit Knight, The Musical Box, Firth of Fifth & Supper’s Ready the highest. In Too Deep, No Son of Mine, I Can't Dance, Invisible Touch ect... are just well known songs because they were once hits - and actually rated low if anything.

I don't even think Judge Mick will save him... it isn't like he said Supper's Ready for heaven's sake. There is overrated.. and then there are those you don't like .... and proceed to call overrated. lock him up and throw away the key.... Unless he wants to revise his testimony..and vote for the true Genesis ovrrated song hahaha

All I like is prog related bands beginning late 60's/early 70's. Their music from 1968 - 83 has the composition and sound which will never be beaten. Perfect blend of jazz, classical, folk and rock.
