Take me from the wreckage, save me from the blast

Talk about music, movies, TV, books, other types of entertainment and what your vices are. Also, if you're addicted to the high you get off Aspirin, this is the place to talk about it.

Take me from the wreckage, save me from the blast

Post by Subhuman »

Rolling Stone magazine has released its list of the 100 Greatest Singers of All Time. Aretha Franklin is #1. Bob Dylan is a shocking - shocking! - #7. John Lennon, a brilliant songwriter with the Beatles but never more than an adequate singer, and a mostly terrible songwriter on his own, is at #5. Michael Jackson is lingering down at #25. Christina Aguilera ranks ahead of Mariah Carey. Annie Lennox ranks at #93, possibly the only fair ranking on the entire list. Lou Reed, frontman of the most overrated band in the history of mankind, and a plainly awful singer, is #62. k.d. lang, in possession of inarguably one of the most beautiful voices of the last 40 years, is nowhere to be found. But Willie Nelson is there!

A travesty, utterly, and in every sense of the word. Discuss.

Rolling Stone always makes shitty lists. They randomly decided that "Like a Rolling Stone" was the #1 song of all time. Now while I like Dylan and I like the song (and I liked his response to beign told it was selected as #1 even better) I have never really thought it was the best song ever or even in the top 10.

By that logic, they should have chosen a Jew as the number one singer.

Silly Walt, everyone knows Jews have no real talent outside of law and finance.

RS occasionally has some stellar articles. If I want lists, I go to Cracked.com.

Considering I've hated every single Guns 'n Roses song ever, Chinese Democracy ain't bad.
