Discuss.

got to number 5, laughed, and closed the tab.

No Mike Patton? Jeff Buckley #39, David Bowie #23? Nah, that list fails completely (in my opinion of course)

I can't believe Thom Yorke is so high up.

The absence of Mike Patton was the biggest fail ever. But Rolling Stone is always disproportionately kind to pop and RnB artists.

I was happy to see Tom Waits there at all, but I can't imagine he got there by popular vote. Editor must have sneaked him in.

I was somewhat surprised to see Mary J. Blige there. Christina Aguilera as well but she probably deserves to the mention seeing how when she actually tries to sing, her voice is pretty amazing.

Where are Burton Cummings and the ABBA girls?

No wonder I never buy Rolling Stone!

The fact that Axl Rose is on that list instantly takes away its credibility.

Axl Rose is on there? FFS.
