December 31, 200618 yr janet jackson is the best of the lot for me Really? :o She's by far the worst imo and doesnt warrent a place in the list <_<
December 31, 200618 yr in my opinion opinion many on that list dont deserve to be on it,janet is the best on the list given though
December 31, 200618 yr The Beatles for me. No contest. They changed the face of popular music. ( I'd have Elvis 2nd for the same reason. Then Michael Jackson).
December 31, 200618 yr Author I can't beleive that the greatest artist of all time has just 4 votes... where is his fans?!!
December 31, 200618 yr Popular Culture began with The Beatles..... Anyone who does not vote for them is in denial of that fact, it goes way beyond how many weeks someone spent at No 1.... I've never really been that big a fan of The Beatles' music, but I wont deny their importance.... well said scott, but im affraid your wasting your time here. people will vote for their favourite out of that list and not who created the most influencial, inivotive music... half on that list shouldnt even be there... maybe the poll should have read 'the most popular artist' because that deals with personal opinion and not fact, which is how the current titles worded.
December 31, 200618 yr I dislike Mariah a hell of a lot, but there are no need for patronising comments like these. Please, try and avoid it. there's a BIG difference between patronisation and realism....
December 31, 200618 yr Do those voting to say Mariah, genuinely believe she has done more for the music industry and has more talent than people who changed the face of music such as The Beatles or MJ or are you just voting cause Mariah is your favourite? :unsure: Personally, although he is my favourite artist, if Robbie Williams was on that list, there is not a change in a million years I would vote for him cause it's obvious to me that he is not a great as some of those on the list and I would only be kidding myself. Bowie, Dylan, U2, The Rolling Stones and many many more should be on that list over people like Mariah, Whitney, Janet etc IMO. -_-

Im not a massive fan of Mariah, but she's in a leauge of her own in music. Although I also said Michael Jackson, because he's the king ^_^

December 31, 200618 yr I think people are forgetting that this isnt a list that the thread starter made up, tis a list of the most popular acts in america by such things as sales statistics and #1's, so the people who are complaining shouldn't be because they have obviously done something right to be placed in the most successful artists in the american charts ^_^

Okay, I seem to have to explain this every few days, so allow me to make it clear, Mariah went R&B/Hip Hop in 1995 with her collaboration with ODB on the Fantasy remix so no, it's not a recent thing. Scotty you've said loads of times in this thread "they don't deserve this they don't deserve that" if you look at the first post Scotty, these artists have EARNED their right to be on this list, it's an official list from Billboard of the most successful acts, they're not acts someone has plucked out of thin air, they are artists that have achieved enough success in the US to class themselves in this category.
