Thousands of votes were cast in BBC 6 Music's search to find the most overrated album in the world ever. Here are the final results:

1. Nirvana - Nevermind
"One great single maybe but the rest is irritating second rate rock with mindless whining that had, has been, and is being written everywhere by admittedly less pretty and tragic characters."
Greg Spellman, Northamptonshire
"There were many better bands - Dinosaur Jr, Mudhoney, The Pixies - who came before. Nirvana just came along at the right time and captured that Zeitgeist and then became the marketing mans dream."
Ewan Swain
"Whilst I quite enjoy "In Uetro" I can't see what all the fuss about 'Nevermind' is about. Other than "Smells like..." there really isn't a decent tune on there."
Chris, Birmingham
2) COLDPLAY - X&Y (2005)
3) THE LIBERTINES - THE LIBERTINES (2004)
4) OASIS - DEFINITELY MAYBE (1994)
5) U2 - THE JOSHUA TREE (1987)
6) RADIOHEAD - OK COMPUTER (1997)
7) THE BEATLES - SGT PEPPER'S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND (1967)
8) THE BEACH BOYS - PET SOUNDS (1966)
9) SEX PISTOLS - NEVER MIND THE BOLLOCKS (1977)
10) THE SMITHS - THE QUEEN IS DEAD (1986)
6Music sucks, but so much Yes on the Smiths and Libertines. Yawn.
