yes, totally i will agree with aerosmith. they're alright some of the time, but i can't understand why people love them so much. i feel the same way about the rolling stones, kiss, and AC/DC.

also while we are on the subject, two hugely popular singer/songwriters who in my opinion have written some decent songs but also in my opinion are two of the WORST SINGERS EVER and it makes me queasy to listen to them ... bob dylan and van morrison.
