I'd say Springsteen is overrated. Altough I think he has one or two brilliant songs.
I love spirit in the night.

Underrated:

Bruce Haack... I seriously, especially after listening to the masterpiece 'The Electric Lucifer' have no idea why this guy isn't as well known as he is. One of the most innovative, and important electronic musicians of all time.

Ouch. Putting radiohead in between Linkin Park, Sum41 and Blink 182?
That's a bit harsh. I think you must have missed out on some really beautiful radiohead tracks there.
And Blink... Anyone who took blink serious kind of missed the point I guess .
