August 3, 201014 yr :lol: Respect to the man in the ice cream van :w00t: Good call on Tom Dice, I'd forgotten he'd gone top 100 here with Me & My Guitar! I was pretty lucky with a few of my noms who'd only just scraped into the lower reaches of the UK top 100 with either a single or album. I originally had a top 30 then read that it was UK/US only so had to delete all my Scandi faves :(

August 3, 201014 yr I forgot to add Billy Joel to mine as i saw him mentioned he has released a few songs that i love.
August 3, 201014 yr Just thought that some chart success and notoriety should factor in a list of top 100 artists of all time. I don't get it. Why do you think that? It wasn't like that in the female one. If I'm gonna do this, then I'm gonna have to check whether artists charted somehow on the Internet. Why can't we just nominate those whose music WE ENJOY? It doesn't matter if they have had chart success. That's like saying people are not allowed to give credit to people whose music they like if they have not had success chart wise. Charts aren't everything.

August 3, 201014 yr So far we have 187 different artists, groups and uncharting acts have been disqualified, a score of 25 is needed to get into the current 100, there are 14 acts with over 100 points, and two with over 200!I've been editing my list as I thought this was just nominations, didn't realise you were giving points so they get through to the final list... :drama: I thought we were just nominating and then you were seeing who had the most nominations and to get through etc... so I've been changing those who are likely to get other nom's for people I think will struggle...

Ok, but can you private message me the orignal post/updated post, so I know what to deduct and add :-)
August 3, 201014 yr Author Just to be clear this is to get into the top 100, which will then be submitted in alphabetical order, then you will be able to rank your top 25, from said Top 100 and also be able to give a Bitch Slap* to one of the artists to deduct 3 point from their total. then I will reveal the hundred in a similar style to the Female List, I will be doing research on the top 100 artists in order to provide adequate commentary, although I know most of the top 100 so far quite well. The final vote will probably start straight after the closing on this vote stops on the 15th August 11:59PM, leaving another two weeks for the rest of the votes, I will reveal the countdown v. early September! Thanks for the votes so far very interesting and eclectic mix! * Or whatever equivolent springs to mind - please suggest if you have any good ideas!

August 4, 201014 yr I don't understand this: All genres are welcome, dead or alive, mega-famous or rarely known, basically the man who does it for you! OK, great, but why do they have to have charted then? What is expressed here gives the impression that any man can be nominated, which is how it should be.
August 4, 201014 yr Will have to have a loooong think about this :lol: Will probs post tommorow or Friday!

There's got to be some rules to this thing otherwise I could nominate the bloke that sings at my local on a saturday night, or the busker outside the train station :P Edited August 4, 201014 yr by Swagger91

I wanna thank Leonardo for doing this because I didn't want to. They're his rules and if you don't agree with them - then that's that I guess. Sorrreees.
August 4, 201014 yr Stop complaining! There's got to be some rules to this thing otherwise I could nominate the bloke that sings at my local on a saturday night, or the busker outside the train station :P I'm just expressing my very strong opinion, this is a forum after all! And I have not been known to express opinions much! And why can't you nominate the bloke who sings locally or the busker? Ok, maybe that's going a bit too far, so in that case, in my opinion the only rule should be that the man has released music. This whole thing is for a list to show what male singers the members of this forum like! I'm not gonna not like an artist just because he has never had a Top 100 hit! It just doesn't matter!

This whole thing is for a list to show what male singers the members of this forum like! I'm not gonna not like an artist just because he has never had a Top 100 hit! It just doesn't matter! Right, i understand your point of view, but along with colaberating data, I want to give information/picture/commentary on each top 100 artist, if an artist has charted in the top 100 of either albums or singles in the UK, US or Ireland, then there are lots of banks of data available to me, and much more easier to research artists that are less known to me. If i have this rule, then even when I didn't know the artist, I can find online information, which I've already used to check that every artist has been in the charts, which is relatively easy to do with both wikipedia and various chart sites! So far I have only found one act, who couldn't qualify, (nearly two until I remembered Olly Murs, has actually preformed on the X Factor 2009 number one single.). If you have some artists who you are not sure, whether they have charted or not, PM me and I will get back to you.
