Yeah, The Ultimates will be the title of this latest edition of BoTB - unless someone else can come up with something better?

So, if you want to play - send me a PM with your ten favorite artists of ALL TIME. That's right; no time restrictions.

Just remember two things:

1) Put someone you don't think other people will vote for as your number one; this artist will be your cherrypick.

2) You cannot vote for these artists:

Pink
The New ****ographers
Adele
Girls Aloud
Carrie Underwood
The Knife
Cheryl Cole

Let's go girls!

I'll do this! Why can't we vote for those artists though?

Love the title! I'm looking forward to this edition.

They've either made it to the final round in the previous edition, or they've exhausted their potential - they've played in three BotB games and have not made it past the first round.

That's not to say they're done forever, though. Amy Winehouse, Mariah Carey, Missy Elliot, and Rihanna all made it to the final round in last year's game, and had to sit out a bit - they're back now!

Still don't have any PMs!

Well I'll definitely have to think about this.

Bump Bump Bump!

(Who's voting for B2K?)

Now that the diva showdown is out of the way, can we get back to business?

With an emphasis on COUNTRY, per Patrick's wishes.

FYC:

Kate Bush
Björk
David Bowie
Prince
A Tribe Called Quest
of Montreal (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE !!!!!!!!!!!!)
Dr. Dre

It's really exciting, because I don't believe Prince has played once in this game.

Not once. Do you girls even recognize the goldmine that is awaiting us? He could take it all the way, y'all.

Kiss, then The Beautiful Ones, then Sign o the times, then Lady Cab Driver.

Yeah he could

Donna Summer tho

Bad Girls, I Feel Love, Love to Love You Baby, Spring Affair

I had sent you a list for this months ago Ace. I'll see if I can find it.

Literally none of my faves will get in

Girl, let's get it right.

From best to worst, in a top four situation?

I Would Die 4 U > Purple Rain > I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man > The Cross.

Signed, sealed, delivered.

I wonder if we'll get more votes for:

Anita Baker or Ariana?

Joni Mitchell or Lorde?

Cyndi Lauper or Miley?

With ATRL, you can never know.

Let's go over the Kylie songs that are ineligible:

Better the Devil You Know, Give Me Just a Little More Time, Confide in Me, Breathe, Can't Get You Out of My Head, Love at First Sight, Slow, Chocolate, I Believe in You, All the Lovers.

Still SUCH a plethora of choices!

No @ those. I mean I would still 9 them but he has way better songs. The Cross though, yes that should replace one of mine!

What about Journey to the Center to your Heart and Summer Fever

Can I vote for Demi/Ariana/Nicki? Or are they too irrelevant?

Ofc, the 80s and most of the 90s is untouched

This is random tho

Nah to Journey to the Center of your Heart. But I'd definitely pick Summer Fever over Spring Affair now that I think about it.
