This is from like a week ago, but I don't think it's been discussed here.

I'll refrain from complaining in my first post. Actually, I'll say the worst thing about it: FREDDIE MERCURY IS #18.
I support BUSH

I support BUSH

YPrrrr

Axl Rose? Really? REALLY?

Also, where is Nat King Cole argh;

Samus Aran

How the fuck can you put Chuck Berry so high, yet keep The Everly Brothers at 90? Chuck Berry didn't even have all that outstanding of a voice...his act was more about his guitar than anything else.

The Everlys, however, were pure vocal delight.

But yeah, Rolling Stone sucks as usual.

WHERE IS BILLY JOEL


YES I love Billy Joel

The list is alright I suppose. These things never really mean so much to me.
I'm glad to see Morrissey has a spot as well as Joni Mitchell and Bjork.
the book of right on

everything about rolling stone sucks dick.

They fucking gave Dark Knight a 3.5, and hancock a 3. How the FUCK do you separate those 2 movies by half a star?

Also, I love radiohead, but how is Thom yorke even on there? He has the ugliest fucking voice ever.

Nah, whoever is the lead singer for the Mars Volta has a pretty terrible voice

Sure, he's a douchebag, and sure, his voice sounds like a dying cat. But Jesus Christ, can anyone else get a voice like that? You don't need to be smooth or classically trained to have an amazing voice.

Still though, I don't know where he'd belong. Axl Rose should be best remembered for his great stage performance in the 80s, and for nothing else, really.

But how can you be a great singer if your voice sounds like a dying cat

Axl Rose is better than Tom Waits? Give me a fucking break. Axl would be more at home on the "100 most atrocious singers and human beings" list.
