I need a list of 120 music celebrities from the 60's 70's & 80's! Any suggestions?
Basically I need to compile a list of famous pop stars from 60's 70's and 80's. I'm hoping for some names if poss. Tell me your fave stars from these eras. I'd really appreciate some diversity to make it more interesting! Is for fundraising purposes - like everyone chooses a name @ £1 each and one of the names will be drawn and they'll win a prize. Hope you's can help. Thanks!
WOW! Thank you SO much! You're all superstars!!

'I still listen to music from the 50's to now, but I feel it hit its best points from the 60's to the early 90's, though there are some exceptions. Today's entertainer is more about appearance than talent. Without artists like Alicia Keyes, I wouldn't bother to listen. As for the decades you mentioned, I can't say that I favor one over the other until the 90's. As an example, I'll list a couple of songs from each decade that I find exceptional. 70's Drift Away by Dobie Gray Just My Imagination by the Temptations. 80's Open Arms by Journey I Want To Know What Love Is by Foreigner 90's End Of The Road by Boys to Men Linger by the Cranberries
