    Taylor Swift's songs are very well put together. She is definitely worthy of her pop star status.

    Matter fact, I was about to bench 575 for 15 reps when I heard "Style" playing through the gym's speakers. I immediately got up and started running around frantically asking "WHO DAT IZ... WHO DAT IZ???" when some pig-tailed gal on the elliptical blurted out "Taylor Swift!". That's when I knew she had undeniable talent and I've been taking her seriously ever since. I ask that you all re-assess with a good pair of headphones.

    Sorry to disappoint you, but that will never happen. I'd rather stick a fork in my ear. Although, I'd never run around a gym saying "who dat iz" either, so I'm just going to assume you and I are very different people.

    Taylor Swift is quite incredible though, she's got a new boyfriend now so let's wait for the next album when they break up.

    They just broke up actually. :p

    This thread has turned more into a guilty pleasure thread for me because I like most of the music listed. At least of who I've heard.

    I like a lot of Taylor Swift's music. I also want to punch her in the face when I hear certain songs. :)

    Did someone mention One Direction (probably)? I love a lot of their songs! The music is catchy, most of their lyrics are positive, and their voices sound really good together.

    And saying the Beatles are overrated physically hurt me.

    I can't really name any overrated bands or singers because I like what I like. I rarely liked anything Prince did so.... :)

    Eh, mostly agree.

    But I do wonder re:Beatles how old y'all are. Creeping up on 50 here and I don't find them to be overrated.

    I do think that there music may not all carry over so well because the style/technology has changed a lot. If you open to it you might check out the stuff from the Cirque show LOVE that was reworked.

    Some nice covers out there too.

    Better covers soundtrack...mellow one.

    Totally disagree with the Fleetwood Mac suggestion, I've been listening to The Chain on repeat for days.

    Agree with Beyonce. Bon Jovi. Aerosmith.

    I'm not the biggest Train fan, but they were on Howard Stern last week covering Led Zeppelin songs and man, they killed it. It was awesome (if you like Zeppelin).
