Default Most over-rated song?

Whilst listening to 'Born To Be My Baby acoustic '89', I thought it was very good but it gets over-rated IMO. Anyway, I got to thinking how many songs I believe are over-rated. This has probably been done before, but what do you think is very over-rated?

Mine are probably:

Have A Nice Day
Born To Be My Baby(Acoustic '89)
Any Other Day

Prayer, Born to Be My Baby, and It's My Life. Especially Prayer is WAAAAAAY overrated. Much better than the other two...still, it's not a very good song.

Any version of "Last Man Standing". What's so good with this song?

Edge Of A Broken Heart - I like it, and think it's okay, but I don't see why the fans like it SO much.

Love For Sale - Doesn't do anything special for me... Don't think it's a good song.

Diamond Ring - Don't like it!

Probably there's more, but I'm not remembering any more right now.

I agree on Edge and Love.

Edge is good but it's not great like people make it out to be, imo of course.

Love for sale does nothing for me either.

I hate it, too. With a passion.

Just for the record, Diamond Ring and Love For Sale, I love them.

Let's see..... I'm judging over rated by a song that almost everyone seems to love, but isn't that good for me. Most people don't like Any Other Day, I would've included it, but again, most people don't like it anyway.


I find most over rated songs are from the 80's/90's.

Here are some...

Social Disease, Born To Be My Baby, I'd Die For You, Bed Of Roses

The Most Over Rated Song (IMO) is Keep The Faith.... don't see the fuss about it.... sure it's good played live, but if it isn't played I couldn't care less.


and on another note, the most under rated songs:

Mystery Train, Lost Highway, I'll Be There For You (sung by Richie Sambora) and of course, Bang A Drum.

I'm in sheer shock. It's the best song the band have ever done(IMO)

I agree wth you about Mystery Train and IBTFY(Richie), though.
