On New Years day a certain radio station (Virgin) is compiling a list of the 100 Top British music artists as voted by their listeners. So whose your top 3 then???

Here's mine - as always open to debate

1 - The Rolling Stones
2 - The Who
3 - The Clash

Wings

 

Only 29!! Just believe the old ones are the best !!!

I think it should be Kylie - I know she is from Oz, but she has only been famous since she came to London - and now she lives here.

Yes, Kylie

.......or the Nolan Sisters - they were lovely, or Dana........

Trout

 

So, we can vote for the Cheeky girls, right? they became famous after they came to the UK! I thought the title said british, not British colony.

I think that the Beatles were **** - don't know what all the fuss is about

Trout

PS Kylie

 

bowie

 

Queen,
Pink Floyd,
Bowie.

 

The Who
Feeder
Brotherhood of Man (kidding)

 

Third one is being a problem...

Rolling Stones I guess... though some of there stuff was a bit ropey

 

Led Zeppelin

 

George Handel
Henry Purcell
Sir Edward Elgar

 

Trout - exactly my point too. Much prefer the stones and Ive hardly heard any of their tracks.

 

The who
Pink Floyd
Beatles

 

Personal favourites include;

Stone Roses
Radiohead
Pink Floyd
Oasis
Simple Minds
Smiths
Blur

But the top of this chart will be dominated by the Beatles, Queen, BeeGees, Robbie Williams, Westlife, Boyzone/Ronan, Blue and all the myriad here-today-gone-tomorrow teen bands.

If only they could exclude acts who had only been in the charts for less than the previous year, it would make charts like this more worthwhile imo.

As regarding the geniuses of the beatles era, those were the Rolling Stones. Lennon was a poser, nothing more nothing less. The guy was obsessed with himself, and his b*tch wife destroyed the beatles. And IMHO the woman was a minger, she looked like a man.

PS. I don't like the beatles, but McCartney was and is a real musician.
