Haven't you been the one arguing that calling something
over or under rated is not objectifying taste? To me
calling a band the greatest ever is over rating them for
reasons that have nothing to do with taste.
I would accept your argument, Crowe, but let's say that
in the mid-90's Enya had become so popular that
after a while all popular music had a new-agey tint
and all of it was boring drivel. Now, if I said that
Enya is overrated because it's boring drivel would
you disagree with me on the basis that Enya is influential?
