[seadove]

Done!

Three of them are not here anymore.

[Marine]

I just sent my vote too :
Leonard Cohen
Bob Dylan
Johnny Cash
Edith Piaf
David Bowie

[TheSpice-BoxOfEarth]

Just voted!

My list was:
Leonard Cohen
Frank Sinatra
Placido Domingo
Bob Marley
Freddie Mercury

You can vote more than once ... just have to use a different name at the end.

Thanks for the tip! The end justifies the means, doesn`t it?

No Jennifer Warnes??? Gimme a break. Seems to veer away from singers of heavy-rocking acts, save Robert Plant. Ian Gillan? Rob Halford? Till Lindemann? Neil Young ? Meat Loaf? David Gilmour? How about Annie Lennox? Julie and Perla? etc., etc., etc. Very nice to see Sandy Denny on the list, though. I hope she makes the final 50, given the options available.

Leonard Cohen
Tom Waits
Nina Simone
Billie Holiday
Van Morrison

Where was Melanie? I'd have voted for her.

I would like at least another 5 choices though as I've had to miss out some fantastic singers.

Have just voted for Leonard and just couldn't bring myself to vote for anyone else Like MaryB I tried to vote another four times - but it was not accepted - can't understand why Let's hope everyone votes and he wins

[lizzytysh]

I've been trying for days to vote from my computer at home. It won't let me do it. How is it done? I can't even get it to cooperate long enough to figure that out!
