I would hardly call Billy Joe brilliant. He is about on par with Kurt Cobain. First songs you learn on guitar and Nirvana and Green Day, because they are so simplistic. Sure, they are fun to play, and it has a nice poppy sound to them, but ultimately there are tons more brilliant.
Billy Joe is good at writing simple, catchy riffs, but I would hardly call them brilliant by any stretch.
