I understand why all of those acts are derisable, except the doors. What did the doors do to end up on that list?

Delete - Japan
Add - Thompson Twins
Find a place on the list, anywhere, for Wilco.

Tin Machine? How can you really go wrong with Bowie and Soupy Sales kids. The Tin Machine album while not great was the worst either. Maybe the followup was a real stinker.

Once they put Yngwie on the list, all credibility was lost.

J.D. Considine doesn't know shit from shinola about good music. Has he mentioned that he interviewd Madonna?

i agree with mankie on the Wilco thing
and ggw on Yngwie! come on not Yngwie!
and i think Skinny Puppy and Primus should be off as well as the Doors. and Paul Oakenfold, well, he's a DJ and he does really suck until you see the effect he has on 500 candy ravers. hes not THAT bad.
can we get GWAR on that list somehow?

Anyone who can't appreciate Wilco qualifies as a retarded in my estimation

Come on. As long as guys like Eddie Murphy and Joey Lawrence attempt music careers, 90% of the bands on this list do not belong.

Any magazine that would employ such a dubious motherfucker like J.D. Considine to hold court on musical taste deserves just a wee pinch of salt with anything they print.

The real issue is why is the list racist?
for example,
Vanilla Ice makes the list Hc Hammer is absent.
Celine Dion, tick, Whitney Houston, no tick

Anyone who used the word "whilst" must be a bible toting Christian. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Anyone who uses bad grammar whilst calling someone retarded must like Wilco.

That's Carmen Electra.
Mariah Carey is black, thus as Markie points out, she doesn't make the list.
