Watched this last night over a span of 5 hours from 6-11 pm.Pretty good list OVERALL but there were definitely some I disagreed with on the list.
Some I thought obviously should have been higher - Elvis, Queen, Aretha Franklin, Pink Floyd, Elton John, Billy Joel........while some should have been lower or not even on the damned list - Alicia Keys, ABBA, Timberlake, Sade, Eminem. Comments to the side of list below. Seriously? Sade > Billy Joel? Holy shit.
Remember - this is the top 100 music artists of ALL FUCKING TIME. And its also just my opinion and I know the wench will get pissed about my opinion (and anyone else's who isn't tone deaf) of ABBA.
