I'm sure they had some big VH1 special where celebrity has-beens make small talk about how each artist made an impact on their personal life. :thumb:

I'm with Pedestrian, seen enough greatest artists lists to not be bothered by this one. Also, as long as threads are made and the lists discussed, VH1 will keep churning them out. So you're better off ignoring it then biting the bait.

Is anyone supportive of having one official thread for all of these outrage threads on mainstream music lists?

Nahhh

We need some joke threads in the music forum.

It always seems these lists just think "Quick, we need a reggae artist! Bob Marley!" "What about something modern for the kids?" "Sure, we'll stick some Beyonce on there!".
Absolutely dire.

It looks to me like someone trying their best to name 100 artists, and running out of ideas pretty early on. I mean, they have the Beatles and John Lennon on the same list. That precious extra space could have gone to one of hundreds of other merit worthy people, yet they chose to heap yet more glory on the same person.

And I really don't get the fuss over these lists: are they trying to tell us which bands we should check out? Everyone has probably been bored to death by most of the bands here, so a conclusive guide to artists everyone has already heard of is a shit idea, patronising and very condescending, and I'm glad people are trolling this :thumb:

I agree with whoever said on the first page: "I couldn't give two shits". In fact I couldn't give a single shit about which 100 artists they've heard of and think are cool. I don't even care if they are good, I've been there and heard them already.

Lots of my favourite artists are on this list, so I'm glad its been kept open.

True, but I don't even care to be honest. We've all heard of them anyway, and the sort of person ho hasn't is unlikely to be interested.
A lot of my favourite artists are up there, but when I saw Coldplay up there with Judas Priest, I lost faith in their judgement.

Definitely a very stupid list

Coldplay let any list down.
