    Fiona Apple and Tori Amos were my musician crushes in the 90's.

    Have no idea about pop music these days,so couldn't tell you who is now though.

    Debbie Harry, Karen O, Charlie Fink from Noah and the whale...

    Bob Marley is my big one though. Never really gave his sexiness much thought til I saw that Kevin McDonald documentary on him, he's nothing too special in photos but my god when you see live footage of him, or even interviews. No wonder he was knocking people up left and right, he probably only had to look at them.

    Had a crush on Sharleen Spiteri from Texas many years ago. She hasn't aged all that well but would still get a dart.

    And when they were younger: Bob Dylan, Jimmy Paige, Mike Patton (Faith No More), David Byrne of Talking Heads in a hot nerd kinda way.

    Debbie Harry. Looks, attitude, personality and voice all in one package. Pity she had to get old!

    As a female although speaking for myself only, Beyoncé, can only sell records by writhing around half naked. I know I know guys, isn't it great.
    For me less is more. Sometimes well in fact a lot of the time some of the hottest ladies I know are always covered and classy looking. They don't have to sell it, they just have it.

    Do you not think that the majority of Beyonce fans are women in their 20's who were also destinys child fans? If I Were A Boy is one of her biggest songs and she isn't up to her usual malarky in that vid if I remember correctly. I get your point, but I'd say only a small portion of her her record sales could be attributed to her writhing round half naked.

    I'd say a small portion of her fans want to do her; the rest want to be her, so men will want to do them.

    Wouldn't say Beyoncé whores herself out at all, she mightn't wear too much in some videos or whatever but it hasn't seemed tacky or anything from the few bits and pieces I've seen. The problem is she's so political and controlling of her image and all, Jay-Z too. Not the place but I've a huge rant to make about Jay-Z some day, everyone's f*cking terrified of dissing him for some reason.


    He's fictional, but Llewyn Davis is definitely one for me.

    Kate St. John of The Dream Academy is one I remember from years ago. Very handy with an oboe, too. :D

    From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch’.

    It's sad really, but I don't know any blokes that listen to her. The usual female pop star, will sing about female empowerment, but have to get semi naked to do it.
    She's good looking, but not sexy. Doesn't seem natural, just doing what her team of stylists, choreographers, PR managers and the rest of her entourage think will sell more.

    Ok I'm not going to call myself a Beyonce fan, but I do like her, as do my friends who are all well educated, non vacuous, confident, independent women (:P). I am in my mid 20's and grew up with Destinys Child - which I think is part of the reason I like Beyonce (I think alot of her recent stuff has been utter tripe so there must be some deeper meaning to it). I like her because her songs are all proper belters, visually she is amazing - not just her looks and body but how she dances, the way she snarls, her on stage costumes, its hard to take your eyes off her - and I don't mean that in an "OMG SHE IS A TOTAL RIDEBAG" way. These are the reasons myself and my friends like her, not because we want to be her so guys will want to bang us, and I'd imagine its the same for most of her fans.

    Oh and also wanted to say that I personally think "Beyonce", that we see, is a carefully developed character... I watched one of her documentaries a couple of years ago and really enjoyed it, but came away from it seeing her as a character... I think she's probably a very very savvy business woman who knows exactly how the entertainment industry works.

    We as a community must somehow find a way to make her aware of your enchanting expressions of love.
