Springsteen is incredibly talented, but unfortunately, many "fans" ignore those talents in favor of a perceived "patriotic good ol' boy" image. Forget about BTR and BITUSA (though they're good albums); listen to The River, Darkness On The Edge Of Town, and The Ghost Of Tom Joad and tell me the guy's overrated.
But yeah, most of the rest of the list is spot on, especially Nirvana, Radiohead (who should be around #5) and Coldplay.
