UK HALL OF FAME LOSES ITS CREDIBILITY RIGHT FROM THE START. the uk music hall of fame has lost all credibility already by inducting cliff richard from the 50's ahead of great acts like little richard, chuck berry and even frank sinatra.....queen have been inducted ahead of david bowie!!! in the 70,s....michael jackson is in instead of prince from the 80,s and robbie williams is in ahead of radiohead and nirvana in the 90,s!!!!
.... ....as i have said before on this website, dont let the public vote on anything or else you get a steaming pile of crap which is what you have with this sham.i think queen and jackson deserve to be in there eventually but no way should they be ahead of the genius that was bowie in the 70,s and prince in the 80,s. ... ...as for cliff richard and robbie williams dont get me started. | |

I've watched the series right through and this would be my pick:
50's - Chuck Berry (Created Rock N' Roll and can be heard as an influence through to the mid-seventies.) 60's - Bob Dylan (One of the greatest poets of all time ... a one off.) 70's - Sex Pistols (Pro-Active, Anti-Establishment Genius.) 80's - Prince (Solely responsible for creating the musical melting pot that we hear today.) 90's - The Prodigy (Brought breakbeat, drum n' bass, techno and dance culture and attitudes to the masses.) Just my opinion ... The actual public choices are extremely dissapointing. | |

Agreed! I think some votes came from the British public and judging by the state of the U.K. singles chart, there's alot of bad taste around "..My work is personal, I'm a working person, I put in work, I work with purpose.." | |

Something So deservid was the inductions of Queen and Michael Jackson. Dont worry the other guys'll get there shot next time. P.S. How the hell did Madonna, and not Prince or/either Michael Jackson not get Automatic induction??? | |

Madonna has the most Top 40 top 20 top 10 top 5 singles in the UK... no one aside from the Beatles comes close. The UK charts are harder to get to the top than the US because the record companies don't control them. That's why Madonna got automatic induction [Edited 11/12/04 9:07am] You CANNOT use the name of God, or religion, to justify acts of violence, to hurt, to hate, to discriminate- Madonna
