I think they are awesome, soulful, not that bad, awesome as hell, horrible, they have a few OK songs, don't really know much about him, satan himself, coolest name ever, tastey and practical, and overrated.

It should come as no surprise that people sometimes explain why they don't like things. Calling them idiots makes you look bad.

Mr. Till that was a valiant effort, but the corrct answers are as follows:
"Not sure, not my taste, done a lot for his genre, overrated, overrated, sorry to hear about that, loved him in Wonder Years, overrated, overrated, and pick a time and place".
I'm sure you thought your response would make the cut, but that's how it goes on "The Wonderful Wolrd of Subjectivity!!!"
Since this round is still developing, I'll just let the next contestant ring in.

I thought "Wow. Someone is even more eclectic than me." and then a moment later "There's a band called 'sex with animals'?!?!?!?" 
Good post.
