Here's my list of faves, because there's more excellent music besides
KaTe's!!:

Male                         Female
1  PETER HAMMILL             1  KATE BUSH      
2  NICK DRAKE                2  SIOUXSIE (AND THE BANSHEES)   
3  NICK CAVE                 3  MARTHA   (AND THE MUFFINS)             
4  SCOTT WALKER              4  MARIANNE FAITHFUL  
5  JACQUES BREL              5  ALICE    (ITALIAN SINGER)
6  LEONARD COHEN             6  TORI AMOS
7  BRAM VERMEULEN            7  ANNE CLARK           
8  TOM WAITS                 8  BJORK
9  GAVIN FRIDAY              9  ELLI PASPALA    
10 JOHN CALE                 10 LAURI ANDERSON

Looking at this, I guess what they all have in common are:
devotion / passion / intelligence (at least musically)
But: why are only Kate / Tori / Bjork and to a lesser extend
Waits/Cohen/Brel "well known" ??? Is there anyone who knows (likes?) all
these 20 fabulous artists??
