Such a Flop List. Beyonce, Mariah and Madonna deserve it though.

Well Gaga's there too... she shouldn't be that high either. The list is kinda messy i agree.

Yep, Gaga is too high as well.

If they're putting people in the top 10 based on one blockbuster era, why aren't Shania, Norah and Alanis higher?

Whitney's discography is not that great. She has a voice, but for the most part it went to making songs that just were not exceptional.

Nope. Try again. Whitney's material is just as important as Beyonce or Rihanna's today. Even the schmaltzy production can be ignored thanks to her incredible voice.

This is on the last twenty years.

And if you're talking all-time, Whitney definitely wouldn't be #2, and some of those women wouldn't belong in the top ten.

Last 20 years? ooooh k that explains a bit. What would be your all time list, eli?

You know what I mean... more on an ATRL level than a general level. Whitney is one of my all time faves.

I believe today everything is based on a commercial success, hence this whole mess. I'm surprised they didn't put Katy Perry or Avril in the top 10 to be quite honest.

No, but seriously, i don't give a crap for these lists. Those who have the spotlight get the highest praise. Nothing is relevant anymore.

Where the hell is Stevie Nicks ?



and KII at Xtina's placement.

That whole singer-songwriter "movement" (was it really a movement? Nothing really came of it. I'd say it was more of a twitch) was the result of the anti-Britney sentiment more than anything else.

Yes it was a movement after Avril pop music turn into "pop rock" and it was like that for almost 5 years tons of artist and even groups came up after that.

But seriously, Whitney's voice made up for her Disney material. It was that special and influential.

Mariah needs to go down, Janet needs to go up, Adele needs to go down.

1. Madonna
2. Diana Ross
3. Janet Jackson
4. Mariah Carey
5. Whitney Houston
6. Beyonce
7. Donna Summer

Janet over Mariah & Whitney? Ch...




And since everyone keeps throwing in acts pre-'80s/90s, why exactly do you all still have Madonna perched up on that top spot?

Who came after that? After teen pop faded, the big trend was hip-hop/R&B, not pop-rock. When teen pop faded, so did the anti- teen pop movement.

I'm not even trying to shade Avril, I used to be a huge Avril stan back in 8th grade, but I can't say that she really pioneered anything.

Madonna's the most influential female artist ever, with the exception of Aretha, maybe.

I would have to think about it.

Obviously, Janet, Madonna and Aretha would be in my top ten. Not sure if I'd place Janet in my top three. And I really don't know what I would do about the rest.

It was at the same time honney and Avril get a much bigger impact and was a breaktrough Pink already had an album before that has anything to do with that.

so let's say BOTH started at the same time .

Hip Hop and R&B is another thing and maybe was a big trend in your country 'cause it wasn't everywhere but yeah I agree it was big after that but I was talking about POP music.

Sorry I just went to eat something.
Who came after well..
In POP basically after the ani- britney thing, Britney retire during that perdiod (but still succeed with ITZ) and we have Avril and Pink leading, the mainstream song of the year in the US was from Vanessa, Michelle Branch was also there in the US.
The suddenly Kelly Osbourne appear doing 'rock' in her fist album, the first winner of American Idol Kelly Clarkson went also for that direction, then others came out later like Ashlee Simpson...
Lindsay and Hilary also had pop rock in their music and tons of irrelevant flop girls around the world. Groups: Simple Plan, Good Charlotte etc etc.. Green Day turn big again during those times and I'm just nameing you the biggest ones.
