This week's question, stolen from Norbizness, is: what big, critically-acclaimed artist that everyone raves about do you just not get?

I'll throw out a few: The Beach Boys, Van Morrison, and Joni Mitchell. Maybe they're really as brilliant as everybody says; I dunno; they just leave me cold. Except Joni Mitchell, whose voice is like nails on a chalkboard to me.
