STING? WORST LYRICIST EVER? REALLY?

I can understand how Sting is a bad lyricist - but worse than Scott Stapp? Really? Granted dude can get a little pretentious, but even those songs (Don't Stand So Close To Me / Desert Rose) are pretty cool. According to some poll, he's worse than Dan Fogelberg (who I argue . . . also not that bad).

The worst? Why? How can anybody be worse than those buttholes who write for Brittney Spears and Justin Timberlake? And granted, Neil Diamond is kind of cool, but his mouth has still emitted some of the stupidest pseudo-philosophical statements ever made ("I AM, I SAID . . . as Dave Barry said, "Mr. Diamond, your Barcalounger is on line four.")

This is a survey, so I find it weird that anybody considers Robert Plant a bad lyricist. I find it weird that, when considering Robert Plant, anyone CONSIDERS him a lyricist.

So this is all very befuddling to me. But most of these lists are.
