Toto

A rather strange case in the world of music: the only band that perfectly unites, that manages to be adored (not simply appreciated, but truly adored) and sung at the top of one's lungs both by the metalhead/musician/long-haired and by any Christian nostalgic for the '80s who spends their days listening to R101.

Pato

He's becoming the new Ronaldo, with all these physical problems! This fragility makes me wonder if PATO is a knockoff brand of LEGO! :) What a shame because he's a talented player!

The Smiths

I reassessed them; they knew how to create an extremely soft and light pop-rock while also managing to have a certain sophistication. However, they are a bit overrated and excessively praised.

All Saints

Yeah, come on, they were a useless little bunch!

Mike Portnoy

One of the wildest drummers, without a doubt. For his ability to engage the audience and for his grit, you could say he was practically the Gennaro Gattuso of Dream Theater. It's a shame that in recent times he didn't focus much on reinventing his style, and his departure from DT brought a breath of fresh air to the band.

Morgan

I'm not a huge fan of him, but I think he is one of those many misunderstood geniuses who will only be praised after death. A genius in lyrics and an outstanding musician... Plus, he was the only one on X-Factor who judged by making sensible arguments, assessing aspiring artists based on their artistic value and not on profitability like that silly Ventura!

Cesare Cremonini

He's someone who has managed to grow... He went from being a little singer for girls with Lunapop to becoming a fairly decent singer with a touch of genius both in his music and lyrics when he embarked on his solo career. However, I don't think it's worth overestimating him either. Let's say he has a minimum of dignity that he could perhaps make better use of.

AC/DC

Surely a good rock band, capable of bringing a good energy. But please... Don't dare to call them artists! The artist is the one who creates, who knows how to reinvent themselves! Who evolves, who experiments... They repeat the same chords for a lifetime! Let's say they are workers in their genre as far as they know how to do their job!
