I think they used both spellings over their short careers.

The Kooks

Doesn't a band, in order to be 'over-rated', have to be rated by someone?

SHIRLEY there's no-one that actually rates the Kooks?

[beorhthelm]

Abba
Girls aloud
Boyzone
Take That

not sure how you can really say they are over rated, they are and alwsys have been considered little more than run of the mill pop, just they happen to sell lots.

and Abba... the fact they are even in your list 25 years after their time, suggests they are rather good at the pop genre.

 

[public school boy]

widen that to solo artists and singing groups supported by musicians.
