Jun 04, 2008 - pobrien on Sheryl Crow
That review seems a bit harsh, Sheryl Crow was overplayed but no pop star gets their due without fans

She is a great songwriter and her music has been played by countless other artists before she decided to strike out on her own. I agree, I don't care for her voice and she got too much air time as far as I'm concerned but her talent can't be denied, a great pop song writer and lyricist worth catching if you have the chance.

Mar 12, 2008 - Bingo Book on Sheryl Crow
Not a fan...

I've always felt Crow was a bit overplayed and that she really didn't bring anything new to the scene. To that end, anything she ever did I found remotely good were covers of already successful bands. I actually had to struggle to remember who she was before writing this, and when I played myself something to remember, it was something akin to a vomit burp.
