People hate them because the internet tells them to.

Always listen to the interwebby and the folks that hang out there, always good advice, always nuggets of wisdom.

Ya, there are a few big acts that I tire of quickly.

Aerosmith. A few good early tunes. Later tunes terrible. Love in an elevator? Jamie's got a gun? Terrible.

LedZ. Creative and dynamic and stirring at something, I must say. But not great music that I can listen to repeatedly. Maybe my taste is too simple.

Rush. A few interesting tunes. A lot of disheveled noise. Must agree w/ WEZ about cat screaming.

But can there be anyone as overrated as fkn Dave Matthews Band? Jesus HC these losers are lame.

Some big names I have never tired of:
Boston. At least I and II. Never gets old, all good.
Fleetwood Mac. Almost all good, every day, all the time.
Jimmy Buffet. Timeless, peerless.
Honorable mention: Journey, Steve Perry.

Possibly weak music but almost always sounds good anyway:
Tom Petty
Motley Crue
Eagles
Much prefer these to having LedZ pushed onto me.

If you haven't much tried out Sade, try this. She was "Pop" in her day, I suppose, but her band is also very good.

Speaking of completely overrated, how about the Beatles? For the life of me, I cannot figure out why people are still crazy about them.

I cannot reach for the radio buttons fast enough when Rush comes on the radio. Just garbage with Alvin the Chipmunk singing it.

Agree. They were at the right place at the right time and with great marketing.

Same. Fingernails on a chalkboard.
