Most overrated PSB song

[E-Mail Vampire]

Go West

[Shopper]

That remix of It's a sin, they played on every tour. It was exciting the first time..

How dare anyone call So Hard overrated. It's an underrated gem, which doesn't get played much along with heart

[Danny C]

Who is going to be the first person brave enough to nominate Being Boring?

Greetings,

Possibly "Heart". It shares the prestige of being a UK #1 along with West-End Girls, It's A Sin and Always In My Mind, but otherwise, it's not in the same league.

Retro.

Heart is one of those songs where the video clip greatly influences how your ears hear the song.

It's a top pop tune, but also an odd one which benefits from the visual explanation.

If they made the mix more epic, a longer intro, more latin, interpolation if I Will Survive, using the sounds of the extended mix and parts of the Miami mix etc, I think I'd go for it. But it would have to be a 10+ minute version, a pop opera.

Yes, Being Boring it is. When it comes to their cover versions, then Go West fits the bill for me.

I know BB is a fan favourite but far from my favourite and overplayed live. GW is also overplayed live.

Funnilly enough I would consider a PSB live show without West End girls, It’s a sin or Always on my mind seriously lacking, but I would not miss BB or GW at all.

My overrated list would be:
In Denial (bland and boring)
You Only You Tell Me You Love Me When You're Drunk (boring)
Was it Worth It? (Apparently not with that song)
Home and Dry (boring)
Did You See Me Coming (poor choice of single)
Together (god-awful!)
Memory of the Future (also god-awful)
Dreamland (worse than god-awful)

[misterme]

Deamland surely is overrated.
By PSB themselves at least ("A very good record" says Neil, "It's always great when you know that you've got a fantastic record up your sleeve" says Chris).
Average at best.

This is not a list of overrated songs, merely a list of songs you dont't like that much.

I find them overrated among fans, especially Drunk, Together, Memory of the Future and Dreamland. I don't dislike some of them, I just find fans overate them.

I'm not the first but I've an adversion to both Being Boring & Jealously.

Sadly, if it wasn't for the backing guitar, I wouldn't listen to BB at all... Sacrilege I know

[jules]

Memory of the future is overated next to the masterpiece that comes just after on elysium.

That song is indeed a masterpiece, albeit a little to fast for my taste

[Tentenlad]

Being Boring is overrated, as is Behaviour. If I had read about BB and never heard it, there would be disappointment upon first listening. It’s not some world changing event or even that catchy. It’s not a very PSB sounding track. It’s very wistful and light.
I really like BB, but I wouldn’t even suggest it as a track to listen to for a new fan.
