Ok here goes.

Van Morrison; Can't stand his voice or music.
Beatles; Don't know what the big deal was.
Johnny Cash: Soooo depressing...
Any jazz or Blues just can't listen to either.
Ramones: Nope never liked them either.

That's all for now can't think of any more.

Are you a Slayer fan by any chance? ...Because a lot of Slayer fans say the exact same thing, probably because the band themselves gets labelled as generic and boring. I like Slayer, by the way.

My unpopular music opinion(s):

Adele is pure sh1te. Her voice is overrated as well, I hear a lot of people say she's the next Whitney Houston(vocally), pffft.

Nirvana are overrated.

Jamie t does not get anywhere near the plaudits he deserves. The man is brilliant!

I wouldn't necessarily say she's sh**e, overrated perhaps. Overrated in the way people go on about her, people treat Adele like she has brought something new to music and is some sort of innovator.

Her music in actuality is very derivative, she has a contralto-style vocal range. It was common in the area of non-classical music with the likes of Cher, Grace Slick, Mary Fahl, Lisa Gerrard and Stevie Nicks.

It does seem to be coming back into fashion now, Lana del Ray is a good example, heck even Lady GaGa uses contralto in her singing.

Adele is just one of many.

I don't think it's fair to call someone out because her voice is in the same range as other people. I'm a tenor. Does that mean, if I make it big tomorrow as a singer, you'll be saying I'm not really that good 'cause I'm just ripping off other tenors?

Speaking of Adele, I just heard this collaboration she did with Nigel Thornberry. It's really good, way better than the original recording.

No I completely agree, there is nothing wrong with the fact there are many artists who came before Adele that sounded much like her (hence why I said she's overrated, not sh**e).

I enjoy her music and I would neither write her off as an artist nor claim she is untalented in any way.

I'm just saying because I've spoken to a few of her fans who treated Adele like she was bringing something new to music and spoke as if there were no singers even today who sang as well as her. There are lots of artists with as good a singing voice as Adele, people just need to search them out, like how I searched out Mindy Smith.

Adele has a good voice, but she's not the greatest singer to ever live, like some people seem to think she is. Her live performances are very dull too, no variation in performances, just the same thing every time that sounds exactly like the record. The lyrics are muck too.

Eleanor Rigby is one of the worst songs on Revolver

Yeah, I agree. Lyrically, I think it's one of their best songs but the actual music just doesn't do a whole lot for me.

I love Eleanor Rigby, lyrically and musically, but you're entitled to dislike it

I agree with the opinions expressed about Adele - she depresses me, and a lot of people forget she's only 23 because of the rather heavy subject matter of her songs.... nevertheless, one helluva singer, but people greatly overrate her as an artist...

[AnimalCracker]

I think Adele is just terrible who everyone seems to love just because shes... dare I say it.. Overweight.

I never met anyone who loved Adele because she was overweight.

As I've said she's a great singer, but not the best as an artist because barr her singing she can't really do that much else. Most people I know love her because... dare I say it.. they are brainwashed by the mass media FM104 told them she was superb.

So many better pop artists out there when you look at Robbie Williams, Beyonce, Lady GaGa, Rihanna, Michael Jackson, etc etc.
