    That's true, but what about the number ones? Katy Perry has an equal number of top-of-the-chart hits on a single album as Michael Jackson had. Rihanna has 10 number ones. That's relativity. Population doesn't count into it. The relativity still stands, irrespective of population. :( The number of people in the population who like crap, relative to the number who don't, has simply increased with time...

    While I'd love to see some of my favorite bands get more, if any airplay, I couldn't care less if more people like what I don't.

    Where's Ender Sai with his generational charts of X, Y and Z when you need him? This thread needs his doomy gloomy outlook.

    I just said that Gen Y was terrible. It's a statement of fact, so I don't understand the objection.

    Also; Megadeth > Metallica.

    It's not just about #1 hits. There is such a thing as cultural impact.

    The list forgot to mention that the Beatles never won a grammy, and Elvis only won a few for spiritual songs, none for his popular stuff.

    What is their point about Rihanna? The only disappointing thing is that they compare her to a bunch of weirdos no one has ever heard of before.

    The Jimi Hendrix one is his own fault. He shouldn't have died.
