I didn't mind their stuff pre-Rattle and Hum, but they really jumped the shark with Achtung Baby.

If I haven't mentioned my intense dislike for this band recently, I'm doing it now, just as a reminder

She's like a censored version of Peaches.

As much as I like Bryan Adams, he's got a couple of contenders...

Wonderwall definatly preferred champagne supernova.

I don't know if people rate Frank Zappa but my old many loved him, personally 10 seconds of any Frank song is far to much.

He's a bit like that, isn't he? Still talented, but.

Zappa is massively under rated.

As a kid I grew up on a diet of Frank Zappa, Pink floyd, Stevie RayVaughan, The Doors, Fleetwood Mac, the Who, Madness and Supertramp.

The only one I really enjoyed as a kid was pink floyd.

I disagree. While he was never one to really make commercial music, his influence on generations of musicians is well known.

According to Wikipedia:
Artists influenced by Zappa [edit]
A number of notable musicians, bands and orchestras from diverse genres have been influenced by Frank Zappa's music. Rock artists like Alice Cooper,[228] Primus,[229] Fee Waybill of The Tubes[230] all cite Zappa's influence, as do progressive rock artists like Henry Cow,[231] Trey Anastasio of Phish,[226] and John Frusciante.[232] Paul McCartney regarded Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band as The Beatles' Freak Out![233] Heavy rock and metal acts like Black Sabbath,[234] Mike Portnoy,[235] Warren DeMartini,[236] Steve Vai,[237] Strapping Young Lad,[238] System of a Down,[239] Clawfinger,[240] and Devin Townsend[241] acknowledge Zappa's inspiration. On the classical music scene, Tomas Ulrich,[242] Meridian Arts Ensemble,[243] Ensemble Ambrosius[244] and the Fireworks Ensemble[245] regularly perform Zappa's compositions and quote his influence. Contemporary jazz musicians and composers Bill Frisell[246] and John Zorn[247] are inspired by Zappa, as is funk legend George Clinton.[248] Other artists whose work is affected by Zappa include new age pianist George Winston,[249] electronic composer Bob Gluck,[250] parodist and novelty composer "Weird Al" Yankovic,[251] industrial music pioneer Genesis P-Orridge,[252] and noise music artist Masami Akita of Merzbow.[253]

I do like some of his stuff, and appreciate his work, I can see how some people would think he's a bit long-winded. Hell, I can't talk, I listen to Mr. Bungle.

Generic "paint by numbers" rock.

I agree with that. Only their first 2 albums did anything for me.

What is the difference between something being over-rated, and you just not liking it?

That's an interesting question.

I believe you can still like something, but still see it as overrated.
