I like some of her songs and she’s a good artist, but some are making her out to be this complete genius and revolutionary, which I am not sure if that is the case.
Is Kate Bush getting a little overrated?

Yes she is. And people always have to trash Tori Amos when mentioning her- when they could not be less alike as performers.
I dig them both very much, but Kate is more overrated.
Incredibly special and talented woman, regardless.

You take that back, OP or I’m gonna put on my best flowy skirt and go to a public park and perform a modern dance that I’ll create about how much I hate you!

Yes, completely overrated. She had two good songs and the rest are forgettable garbage.

Nah, she's fine. Her "rating" is about justified. Try to find a life, OP.

She was a unique artist of her time (late 70s - 80s).
OP should share who he thinks isn't overrated from that particular era.

She’s not quite as overrated as Tori Amos.

The term “overrated” is overrated. The Kardashians are overrated. Everyone and everything else is just rated or, in rare cases, underrated.

Her music was innovative, but her real talent has always been knowing when to leave the stage.

She is extremely eccentric British/English in nature, and as the link at r28 points out, way too literary for mainstream American rock music tastes. There was talk that she'd finally get inducted into the RnR HOF this year, although I'd personally love to see it (I'm a fan) I was like, nah not gonna happen.
R28 points to the success of the Smiths, Blue and Oasis over here as a point that "British" acts can make it in the American mainstream, but those are all rock/hard rock acts. They don't exhibit the extreme eccentricity that Bush does. Delightful eccentricity, but all the same.

I absolutely love her, and flew to London to see her in concert back in September of 2014, when she randomly made an appearance after 35 years away from the stage.

.... The Dreaming circa '83 was the one for me. As mentioned above... she never overstayed her welcome... always left her fans wanting more.

Absolutely love love love love Kate Bush. And frankly dig Tori Amos more.
Two utterly different beasts other than piano playing.
Kate really isn't overrated in the world. But I find her overrated here on DL.

Good grief, they’ve only been mentioning her for the past few days.
Give her her day in the sun this time around. 🙄
