Just thought I'd get things rolling on this board since there are no threads.

Aside from Mariah, who are your other favourite artists?

I also love:

Delta Goodrem
Joni Mitchell
Jeff Buckley
Michael Jackson 



Who are your faves?

My other favourite artist is Jewel. Her voice is beyond amazing. Classically trained she can sing folk, pop, gospel, dance, country, rock, and she's even sung R&B on a duet with Tyrese which was produced by Babyface (called "Make It Last).

But my favourite thing about Jewel is definitely her songwriting. Her storytelling abilities are extraordinary. I know this is a Mariah forum but I honestly think Jewel is the best songwriter of the last 20 years.

My other faves are Mary J. Blige, Janet Jackson, Michael Jackson, One Direction, Meat Loaf, Adele, Alicia Keys, Van Morrison, Evanescence, Spice Girls, and Whitney Houston.

Great topic David!

Other than Mariah, I'd say my fave would be Janet Jackson. I find that her discography is so under appreciated. So much depth in her lyrics - and so socially conscious and relevant to each era in which they were released.

My other faves include Michael Jackson, Craig David, Boyz II Men, Guy Sebastian, Whitney, Beyonce, Brandy, Monica, Usher (old school more than now), Toni Braxton. Pretty much all R&B/soul, although I do have an unhealthy love for poppy boybands too, haha!!
