What are some of the most overrated songs you can think of?

>Beatles in general
Nah.

>>69652731

Yeah and everything related to them like NMH

>>69652780
Incorrect on both counts.

Losing My Religion and Sweet Child O' Mine.

Sweet Child O' Mine in particular I think actually has one of the worst riffs I've ever heard. It fucking pains my ears to listen to that song.

They're all phenomenal songs but still what the fuck makes them so much more popular

They're all hated at /mu/ thought.

FUcking Bohemian Rhapsody.

It's like Yes and the Cardiacs fucked and had a weirdo prog kid but the kid was all autistic and deformed and didn't live up to it's parents greatness.

I agree with Warpigs (and most of that list's metal songs) because to me: Metal is a genre that's supposed to get your blood rushing, metal songs should be exciting. Tempo has nothing to do with it. Holy diver for example has a relatively slow temple and its still pretty exciting, it feels epic to listen to it.

In the case of warpigs, it just feels dull, slow, same goes for hallowed be thy name. When you're used to crazy intense riffs and solos like the ones in NOTB, aces high or 2 minutes to midnight, it's kind of hard to swallow the pill of a slower, less intense song.

In the case of painkiller: I just believe it's a very "random" song, the kind of song that it's completed in 1 jamming session. It doesn't seem to be carefully planned, instead it sounds very random, this is the same reason why I dislike most of metallica stuff except for enter sandman and seek n destroy. Their riffs and solos sound like random jamming and I'm actually surprised they managed to write them down to be able to replicate them in concerts.
