Define Overrated and Underrated? We're just talking musically I suppose, but the topic name misled me.

Overrated:
! (This song sucks.....period. Nothing musically interesting, heck there's almost nothing that's actually musical.)
Cryosleep (Meh, nothing special)
Driving Force Classical (A lesson in repetition)

Underrated:
Infection (The best Inspector K song)
Utopia (Pure genius)
Robotix (Sure, it's not the best song, but most people seem to hate it)

I think the reason people don't really play this song is because the original July was fast, upbeat, and hard. This remix is only a 9 footer and isn't as fun as the original. Basically, because it blurs in comparison to its predecessor, it seems boring. The same thing can apply to Disconnected Disco.

I agree on Hispanic Panic and Perfect (Sammi Morelli is good frown.gif), but everyone on ITG Freak loves Kid Whatever.

I see tons of people playing that song whenever I go to my local ITG machine, and I'm shocked to see that it's mainly males playing it (it highly reminds me of Butterfly, although I actually like that song a lot). I think it's a cute song, but it's still overplayed where I come from.

I'm talking about just how much they are played or simply there popularity.

! is an amazing song. It's awsome musically and the steps are a blast. Mabey I just like it cause I'm a huge fan of hardcore trance

From what I heard other people say about ITG songs:

Underrated:
VerTex² - This song is actually quite fun and interesting to listen to.
Wake Up - Nice house song track that fits the title well.
Disconnected Disco - Great song with cool sound effects.
Lipstick Kiss - Nice upbeat tune to listen to on a sunny day.
Frozen Fire - Come on guys, the new version can't be THAT bad.

Overrated:
PA Theme - No melody and just basically ho-hum vocals and beats.
No Princess - OK, but not great. Some of the lyrics have got to go.
Bumble Bee - Great song, but certainly not among the best.
STOP! & Go - Good song, but average at best.
Pink Fuzzy Bunnies - Despite the hype, just a mediocre cheesy song.

Lipstick Kiss is awesome, although it sounds like Roxor picked it up off of the Katamari Damacy soundtrack cutting room floor. I'm also personally a big fan of Jason Creasey's songs on ITG, which everyone else seems to hate.

As for overrated... Queen of Light. The song's fun to play, but I'm just so tired of hearing it.

This song is probably one of the bigger inside jokes in the community..hence why it is both awesome and win.

I have to disagree with most of that.. ! is a really cool song. It's not amazing, but it's pretty cool to listen to. Tension is miles ahead of Infection. But that's subjective, so whatever.

However, what isn't subjective (at least around here) is that Utopia is NOT underrated. EVERYONE plays that damn song. I love it, but god, people play it nonstop. Anyway, for my own list:

Overrated:
Bubble Dancer (GOD STOP PLAYING THIS poopy)
Land of the Rising Sun (Ok song, but nothign special, its like 3rd in popularity or something like that.)
July - I really hate this song with a passion. Everything about it

Underrated:
Tension (frick awesome song, more people need to play it)
Kagami
Hand Of Time

Dude, Kagami is just boring. And Hand of Time is pretty bland too, but I'll admit, it is kinda fun...

Attn. person that listed all Hybrid as overrated... do you know what "overrated" means? last time I checked, most people didn't like Hybrid at all, and many despise their stuff, so if anything, they are underrated.

Underrated:
All Hybrid songs, especially Out of the Dark
Kagami is one of Kyle's best songs.
Vertex^2
We Know What To Do
On A Day Like Today
Cryosleep, or any Machinae
Mythology
Boogie Down

Overrated:
Most of Kyle's work. its good, but some people act like its the greatest shit they've ever heard... gimme a break... its like junk food, fun for a while, but gets old really fast. thats all. He really isn't on the same level as Taka or LED.
Most of Nina's songs
Bloodrush (reading some old thread on ITGfreak where people were saying this is the greatest song they've ever heard made me laugh.gif )
Energizer
Charlene (god I hate it when she croons "Charlene" at the beginning, makes me cringe)

I have just one for Underrated:

Not Worth the Paper. Yes, I'm dead ****ing serious.

I like the Crispy material (Save "Kiss Me Red") too, but I'll admit that I'm not really sure of the general reaction to it to say if it's underrated. But NWtP, geez, it seems like EVERYONE hates it.

I like Not Worth The Paper. I don't see why they decided to get rid of both Dax songs, yet all 3 Sammi Morelli songs remain. It would have made much more sense to get rid of Dreams of Passion and one of those 3. Not worth the paper could have had good expert steps too.

I liked Not Worth The Paper too, I just can't stand all of Dax's other songs.

Fixed.

Anyway, I believe more people should be playing Summer in Belize. That's a truly spendid trancelike techno song with incredibly fun steps. What do you expect from Digital Explosion? And speaking of them, Driving Force Classical should have more attention as well. Sure, it's one of the more repetitive ITG songs, but it sounds absolutely marvelous once it reaches the orchestral sections.
