I think Adele can be one of the all-time greats.
(I.E.: Adele has some talent, however she will be nothing more than a 10 second blip on the radar in the grand scheme of things.)

Late 90s - early 2000s was awful. Boy bands, pop punk, nu metal was all shite.

pop punk

I'd much prefer that crap to Good Charlotte.

I wish green day would have died along with good charlotte, simple plan, and a number of other miserable bands during this time

Go listen to the album Kerplunk, and then you might understand why you are categorically wrong.

Good Charlotte is 10 times better than what is played on Hits 1.

Suicide machines - sometimes I don't mind
I was a HUGE suicide machines fan in HS in the late 90s...
That entire album with sometimes I don't mind was a HUGE departure for them.

smoothed out slappy hours, kerplunk, and even dookie were great albums for that genre.
Hell, American Idiot was a damn good album...overplayed and became commercialized as hell... but it was executed far beyond any of those other shitty bands could ever dream of.

indeed. suicide machines had a few i liked. i was always more of a real big fish and the mighty mighty bosstones fan. gotta love blink, old green day, millencolin. of course rancid and nofx are on a whole other level of awesomeness imo. good char..and them others can suck it

This is much better than good charlotte, simple plan, new found glory and all those douche bands
If you're comparing that to Tonic, Fastball, Radiohead, Lenny Kravitz, Everclear, Marcy's Playground and even Harvey Danger's one hit wonder "Flagpole Sitta".
For Comparison

(Also Rancid and NOFX are considered ska-punk, not really in the same category but still great.)

Honestly, the majority of mainstream music has been pretty terrible the past 20-30 years.
Debatable. Music is very nostalgic after the decade has passed. I grew up in the 90s and you will never convince me that alternative/grunge was terrible. Alice in Chains, Smashing Pumpkins, Bush, Sound Garden, Radiohead, Gin Blossoms, Toad the Wet Sprocket, fricking Dishwalla. I was raised on these bastards.

Finding people who can sing isn't difficult. It's the singer/songwriters that I want.
Bob Dylan wouldn't make it past the first round of a singing competition.....but man the guy could write.
It's impactful (is impactful a word?) lyrics that people remember...
