What's the Difference Between a "Good Band" and a "Great" Band / myLot

My daughter and I have this discussion all the time whenever I end up listening to her music and try to explain to her a band that is considered "good" today might not have the same staying power as the "great" ones. To me, a "great" band is one that withstands the test of time. In other words, if I listened to a band when I was a kid and my kids immediately recognize that band when they come across them on the radio, I'd consider them in the "great" category.

I think great band have lots of qualities to become famous. But the good band is that one which has the power to impress people but don't know how to become a popular one.

What’s the difference between a good band and a great band? The personal tastes of whomever is listening. Nothing else.

You're right. Great is heavier than good. Great is more experience than good which is just beginning to reach the pedestal of success.
