Dr Lecter Posted August 12, 2015 Posted August 12, 2015 MS ROSS best be on the list just for LOVE HANGOVER. And her non musical exploits like driving back her videos to blockbuster wasted Marilyn AGOG
loomer Posted August 12, 2015 Posted August 12, 2015 tina turner is way too high? what do you mean - her influence is still seen everywhere today. just because shes in her 70's doesnt erase everything she brought to to the table. this is a woman who was able to fill stadiums. is diana ross on that list or have they completely abolished her? Her influence is high for sure (Beyonce) but I really dislike her 80s work which filled those stadiums, just not a fan of her voice. Miss Ross should've been in there. At least The Beast was snubbed.

XXL Posted August 12, 2015 Posted August 12, 2015 Wasn't expecting anything less 18. Joni Mitchell The greatest female singer-songwriter of all time, a woman who can sit at the high table with Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen and Paul Simon. The dense complexity of her poetic lyrics and jazz infused musicality sometimes keeps popular acclaim at bay, but her influence resonates in the thorny brilliance of today’s finest female writers, PJ Harvey and Laura Marling. a woman who can sit at the high table (with a man)
GroovyGirl Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 Yes and along with that she's also a brilliant lyricist, melody creator, producer and visual artist who has enriched her medium and evolved through the years. As attested by the people who have worked with her and even by serious music critics, many times Anyone who after 32 years is still bent on purporting this idea of Madonna as a mere image-maker or window dresser is an obtuse or a downright idiot who hates the person most likely, not the music, if they listend to the music at all dead on balls as usual, xxl!!

Beyoncé has repeatedly lavished praise upon Tina Turner. Jesus, she even performed with her at the Grammy's. She's an iconic singer and performer that will never fall into irrelevancy. Good lord. That's like saying Gaga or Swift "took everything" from Madonna.
Plaything Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 Good lord. That's like saying Gaga "took everything" from Madonna. Um..yea, and? lol
Guest Rachelle of London Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 Erm Didn't Gaga steal everything from Madonna?
Barbie Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 Erm Didn't Gaga steal everything from Madonna? She also took things Madonna did and "added on" to them. For example. Not just a cone bra.....but a cone bra that shoots fireworks! And trying to kiss Britney wasn't enough (something Madonna had already done of course) so she tried to do it......dressed as a man! Edgy! Fucking pathetic fat bitch.
Guest HaveASit Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 People missunderstood KalamazooJay's point
Barbie Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 I just wanted to lash Gaga a bit. Can't stand that fat slob.

LHakaLH Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 Stopped reading that list when they compared Goober to Elvis WTF. Also where the fuck is Janet
loomer Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 18.

The dense complexity of her poetic lyrics and jazz infused musicality sometimes keeps popular acclaim at bay, but her influence resonates in the thorny brilliance of todays finest female writers, PJ Harvey and Laura Marling. PJH took NOTHING from Mitchell. And just cuz Laura Marling is folk doesn't mean she did either.

She's an iconic singer and performer that will never fall into irrelevancy. Good lord. That's like saying Gaga or Swift "took everything" from Madonna. are you misunderstanding me? I said tina turner doesn't get a lot of credit. i don't mean from beyonce (no idea what she says about her) but the media. i rarely hear people talk about tina these days
Glindathegood Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 are you misunderstanding me? I said tina turner doesn't get a lot of credit. i don't mean from beyonce (no idea what she says about her) but the media. i rarely hear people talk about tina these days People don't talk about Tina Turner now because she hasn't released an album or toured in a long time. When she did tour, she got a lot of praise.
Glindathegood Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 PJH took NOTHING from Mitchell. And just cuz Laura Marling is folk doesn't mean she did either. Exactly. That was why I was saying I don't like these lists of female artists. They always compare female artists who have nothing in common. I guess maybe they are saying PJ Harvey and Joni Mitchell both write deeper more literary sometimes confrontational lyrics, certainly not their style of music. but Joni Mitchell doesn't have a trademark on writing good lyrics.
KalamazooJay Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 (edited) are you misunderstanding me? I said tina turner doesn't get a lot of credit. i don't mean from beyonce (no idea what she says about her) but the media. i rarely hear people talk about tina these days I did misunderstand you then. It sounded as if you were saying she was irrelevant to the point where she's not influential. I don't think the media needs to make it clear that Tina was a musical force of nature. Current pop stars have certainly given credit to her where credit was due. Edited August 14, 2015 by KalamazooJay
lasky Posted August 15, 2015 Posted August 15, 2015 I recalled the article was first published back in 2014.... still reusing the same words and picture...
Brasileiro Posted August 15, 2015 Posted August 15, 2015 So brit oriented this list... Well at least people know more about Spice Girls than Kate Bush outside England. Lady Gaga as Elvis??? In which planet a hideous looking pop tart is anywhere near to being similar to one of the most attractive singers ever. So rubbish this shit...
