Do you ever wonder?

Do you ever wonder why some artists (individuals or groups) attain success through critical acclaim and/or record (cd) sales?

Here is my list of those who have made it in the recording/entertainment industries and is completely puzzling to me.

Please list your own; it's irrelevant what you think of mine.

OK, here you go (in no particular order):

Sheryl Crow
Norah Jones
Michael Bolton
Celine Dion
Joe Cocker
Manhattan Transfer
Boston
Rickie Lee Jones
Pink
Phil Collins

That's enough to get started; show me what you got.

"Tiny Tim is a misunderstood genius. However he should not actually be listened to at all in order to understand this. The music is superfluous to what he is. Given this, I think he is way way better than Eric Clapton or the Beatles."

Somehow, taken in context, this makes complete sense to me.

Any band not from the British Isles that professes to be classified as either a 'punk' or a 'rock' band.
How's that for a generalization?

I never understood Americas fascination with Frank Sinatra. My father was a big fan, but I just never got Sinatra and I almost question why I don't when so many others do.
