I love how they mention Kenny G in the intro, but he doesn't make the list.

No, it's not. A simple clicking of the link will quickly reveal they are two entirely different lists.

Thanks. I'm pretty busy at work today, and figured you'd know right off the bat.

He's #4. Where's Madonna, Britney Spheres, Jessica and/or Ashlee Simpson, all the boy bands?

Apparantly they all have more talent than the Doors.

??? He's #4. And once again it's nice to see a bunch of no talent writers ripping on other people's musical talent. If these writers are such experts on what it takes to be a great artist, why aren't they artists themselves?

Forget about the writers being artists. If they're so good why are they writing for Blender magazine?

98 degrees was the sole representative of the Boy Bands. Weren't they the group from that show "Making the Band"?

I believe the making of the band group was O-Town.

I think 98 degrees was the band that spawned Mr. Jessica Simpson

When you don't agree with one of these type of lists, make your own. Then you'll see there's no group of "50 Best of" or "Worst of" artists we can all agree on. Then you can also stop blaming the magazine and/or writers.

But Jah,
half the fun of these lists is seeing who's on them, the other half is berating the person/group/publication who came up with the list in the first place.

I can blame whoever the hell I want.

Yeah, ya can but it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to blame it on the magazine or writers just because they share a different opinion than you. Like I said, write your own list and see what course the discussion takes afterwards.
