Kiss

The most overrated band in rock and roll history whose only claim to fame was their affinity for outlandish costumes, highlighted by face make-up and shocking antics. Most famous for two particular songs: the lyrically shallow "Rock n' Roll All Nite," and the musically unmemorable"Detroit Rock City." Originally made up of vocalist and bassist Gene Simmons, vocalist and rhythm guitarist Paul Stanley, lead guitarist Ace Frehley, and drummer Peter Criss. Frehley and Criss have long since left the band, likely after realizing that the band's lyrics were shallow and unimaginative and that their instrumentation was simple and forgettable.
Classic Rock Tool: Dude, have you heard Kiss? They're the loudest, most awesome band ever!

Classic Rock Pro: Sure they're loud, but they're certainly not awesome! If you want real '70s metal with crazy antics, go for Alice Cooper.

Randy Newman

An influential singer-songwriter who is best known for writing the soundtracks for numerous films, including Ragtime, the Meet the Parents trilogy, and numerous Disney films. He has frequently been lampooned by shows such as Mad TV and Family Guy due to his physically awkward appearance, "goofy-sounding" singing voice, and the homogeneous sound of his music. Many people underestimate his talent particularly as a result of the third reason he is so widely parodied in the media. However, many of these same people have probably never paid any attention to the lyrics of his songs, which are incredibly profound and greatly overshadow the relative simplicity of his musical skills.
Randy Newman is not unlike Bob Dylan. He's not a great singer, musician, nor is he particularly good-looking. However, he is a lyrical genius who can touch on some of the deepest human emotions as well as incorporate deep social commentary.
