I think Stairway To Heaven by Led Zeppelin is the most overrated song of all time. It's not a bad song, but it's kinda long and it's mostly acoustic, so I can't see why it's so popular, especially since Led Zeppelin has so many better songs. I also don't think Smells Like Teen Spirit is one of Nirvana's best songs.

What do you think is the most overrated song of all time?

of all time, Anarchy in the U.K.

thats amazing, i knew for some reason that when the thread said "most overrated song of all time" you would say stairway to heaven.. why? because most people dont apreciate classic music that has more meaning, soul, and power than any punk rock or any other genre of song.

Yeah, that's true. And especially a lot of Offspring fans wouldn't like that type of music. I like Punk, Metal, Jazz, and some rap, but I don't like music like that too much.

I can't think of a specific song, but I'm willing to bet that most of the songs listed here will be by rockers who died young and thus have a cult following.

So yeah, perhaps something by Nirvana or The Doors (even though they both rock). Though Queen is a clear exception to that rule.

"YMCA".

The Village People had SO many better songs. :(

This isn't really of all time, but I'll say "Float On". I love the song, and Good News For People Who Love Bad News was one of the few good albums of 2004, but they've done so much better stuff in the past that doesn't get recognized.

Paradise by the dashboard lights, it's such an stupid and ugly song :mad: and everyone seems to like this song. The whole band is actually just rubbish..

I don't think it's overrated at all. It's awesome, and the only Zeppelin song I actually like.

But the most overrated song? Maybe Run to the hills by Iron Maiden.

There is no underrated and overrated songs on the world.
There is music you like and dislike.
so fuck this thread!

Screw you. That might be my favorite Guns N Roses song.
And I agree with Drummerguy123. I really can't believe people actually like that song.

That's the only Guns N' Roses song I actually like. Funny.

Back In Black is a good song too, but ACDC do have better songs.

November Rain is overrated, It`s on nr 1 on every top 2000. I have never liked that shitty song.

Trivium-Pull Harder On The Strings Of The Martyr

Thats the most overrated song/band that are around at the moment as for all time, I'd say Anarchy In The UK by Sex Pistols. But there are a lot more.
