Obviously, these are the opinions of a group of people. But the people who really count are the ones who buy the records or cds. And that can only be displayed by record sales. That is why Billboard is the only list that I respect as valid. If this were a Billboard countdown Bob Dylan would not be in the top 10 although arguably he is great in that he is truly unique. But, Lionel Richie would be #29 and his group, the Commodores would be #54. This is based on record sales. And Usher is #21 and the great Elton John is at #3. This is based on record sales and you know what, I can’t argue with it because I know Lionel Richie is the man.But, he’s not on Vh1′s list. They always snub him and I don’t give their list any validity. Just opinions of some very small minds.
