It's been brought to my attention that I omitted certain important solo artsists in last night's polls. Here's 10 of them.

Bryan Ferry, he´s always polite in his music.

"It´s fundamental that we do only exist in our own universe. When you like Pet Shop Boys, you are in our world. This is absolutely crucial to our entire outlook...what we do has an incredibly strong identity and applies only to us. It´s a case of not recognising the existence of anybody else!". Neil Tennant.

I love Bryan Ferry too, he's almost as good ad Christopher Walken

He's a polite man in public too. Just ask my mate who had a good look at his willy standing next to him at a urinal in St John's Wood once.

Bjork of course
most of the others are not even able to write their stuff


Bet Gibbons isn't really "solo": part of Portishead, then her first solo album was more of a collaboration wasn't it? with the leader from Felt or is it someone else...
anyway, she's better than most on this list

Hardly anyone is solo actually, unless they play all the instruments themselves... In which case I don't see why the credit should go to that one person. :)

Depends on what 'story' you believe---- but I thought George 'flashed' and the Pretty Policeman cuffed? (What to what I don't know! :shock: )
Mind you Pretty policemne where never suppose to 'get it on' with the 'subject' ---- just encourage enough to get a response then say " You're nicked!"
