I still have a Rolling Stone record guide from 30 years ago. Whoever did the review of Queen's recorded output up 'til then gave all of their albums one or two stars, out of a possible five, and called "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" (I might be paraphrasing here) "their only listenable song in a dismal career." I couldn't have disagreed more with this assessment of Queen.

Now, Freddie Mercury is #18 on this list. I always knew a lot of the reviewers in that old record guide were pseudo-intellectual pretentious twits. I guess that's still one of the requirements for writing for them. Rolling Stone has been sweeping their own history under the rug for as long as I can remember.
 
My Uncle Arthur was a pretty darned good singer. He could really belt out "Old Man River". Brought a tear to your eye to hear him sing it.
 
Art Garfunkel came in 87th. I never realized how much I loved his voice until I heard this song.

I thought I saw Roy Orbison, but no Amy Lee, no Rhiannon Giddens.

Whoops, my bad. Didn't see Roy, but he's there at #13. Still lots of notable absences on the list. Didn't see Tom Jones, David Clayton-Thomas, Frank Sinatra, or Enya Brennan either. I suppose any list will be very subjective. My favorite singer is Ann Wilson of Heart.

And who the hell is Bjork #59?

I think the number was 59, may have been 60.
