Dont know about that one Mike.

That would mean miley cyrus is great. or taylor Swift.

They are popular and there are varied reasons but they are not great singers, not great performers, not great writers. Many people like it, that doesnt mean that they are great.

Rhianna has sold more records than the eagles.

Actors dont base their opinion of other actors by how much their movies draw, they judge by the talent and devotion to their craft.

FANS view greatness by success. Artists dont or shouldnt.

It's like letting people who know nothing about dancing vote on who is the best dancer. they vote by what they like.
