It's certainly OVERUSED!

It's also a fairly meaningless word used in the context of appraising music. It's been said before, but ones taste in music is purely personal. What one person considers 'overated' another may consider a masterpiece.

I would expect stupid music journos to use such lame expressions, but not hyper intelligent prog fans like us..

I'm sure we've had this poll before - and it was overrated that time as well!

Both Underrated and Overrated shoud be banned from English
