Gsoul82 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 A few people have brought up the idea of doing an artist-themed challenge. This is going to be another one with some freedom. The artist will be voted on, but you can choose any song from that artist. Somebody suggested a Weeknd Challenge and somebody else suggested an Adele challenge. In this topic, lets nominate artists for this challenge, for the next 5 days. Each participant can nominate two people. Afterwards, we will vote.

Gsoul82 Posted January 18, 2016 Author Share Posted January 18, 2016 My first nomination is Michael Jackson. Guy has a huge catalog, and I think there's really something for everybody there. This includes his work in his younger days as the frontman for The Jackson 5, as well as his solo work. That first nomination seemed obvious to me, but I've gotta really think for my second pick.

Gsoul82 Posted January 31, 2016 Author Share Posted January 31, 2016 This one seems to have slipped under the radar. A humble bump. Also, feel free to suggest challenges here: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosa Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Oh I missed this thread. And you have missed lots of them saying they'd do a Bee Gees challenge. It is in Jon's thread about Belting and Bridging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think I've heard one Bee Gees song, but I'm probably completely wrong, lol. 60's challenge is a great idea in my mind. I'll get a few more people in here and see what the people say before we vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to leave one more day to suggest, and then it looks like I'll be putting up the poll. My second suggestion is Frank Sinatra. You have not heard a BeeGees Song? Except for the fact that they were railroaded because of the Disco fiasco they were brilliant song writers and singers. After the death of Disco and the BeeGees boycot they had Number one hits as writers and producers in pretty much all genres except for Classical. They had hits in Country, RnB, Pop and Rock. The only writers and producers to have #1 albums in Country, RnB, Pop and Rock at the same time. Although different singers singing the songs it was BeeGees we were listening to. "Islands in the Streem" performed by Dolly Parton and Kenny Rodgers was a BeeGees Song. I am not sure what the other songs were at this point but that was the beauty of it. We were still listening to BeeGees even after the Beegees themselves were blackballed from the Radio stations because of the Disco thing. Just click on youtube and treat yourself to some BeeGees. You will not be disappointed. I already posted one BeeGees Song a little while back but I have one or two in mind for this challenge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronws Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 I know everyone likes MJ but I suggest G should do Prince, especially "Kiss." You have the right balance of high and low.
