    Perhaps one of the most underappreciated singer-songwriter of all time, John Denver. Only by understanding his music can you truly realize the contribution he made to the world. Another person on the top of my list has to be Barry Manilow. He is often criticized, though I'm not sure why, as his ability to write music for singing is second to none. He didn't write his lyrics, but the instrumentation to his songs is perhaps the best part.

    Mick Softley, Bruce Dickinson, George Harrison, a couple of mates of mine, and Paul Robeson.
    What is life? What seperates the greats from the almost greats? Is it skill? Power? Luck?

    Or is it the fact they won?

    David Brent.

    His songs weren't actually that bad.

    Yes, David Brent is the main character of "The Office" played by Ricky Gervais. In the episode of series 1, where they do some staff training, Brent plays some of his songs that he and his band "Foregone Conclusion" played.
