The Doors.

They are the most underrated by serious music fans and the most overrated by casual fans.

Haha, I think you're totally right!

I've actually been thinking lately that maybe I should give them more of a chance myself. I think I tend to underrate them simply because of Jim Morrison, but there's obviously a lot more to the band than just the frontman.

Admittedly I've never heard any of a-ha's other music, but I find it hard to consider that they're underrated, given my opinion that Cap'n Jazz massively improved on their only popular song.

wait what?

the fact that they didn't have other popular songs doesn't mean they weren't good songs.

That's true, and I was just basing my statement on the opinion that "Take On Me" is pretty crap.

They had another hit a couple of years ago:

Not too bad. Not my kind of music, but not too bad.
