Vote for Marie Picasso 2) Marie Picasso
Marie Picasso has meant more to me than any other artist. She rules my world forever.

Vote for The Beatles 3) The Beatles
Nobody can come close to touching how influencial and talented these four were. They were four amazing musicains clashed into one god-like group. With the quantity of songs and albums they produced, to the quality of music they made, it is untouchable. Add in the fact that it was basically all in the same five years, and you have easily the greatest band ever.

Vote for Elvis Presley 4) Elvis Presley
Though not quite on the level of Michael Jackson, Elvis too did good records and influenced some artists!

Acc. to me Elvis and MJ are the greatest musical acts of all time. I voted for Elvis because I’m from the 60s and who dared to put Marie Picasso on the list? She isn’t at least a quarter of any artist here!

Elvis is the King! Why Marie Picasso? People don’t even know her and people who vote for her as the best needs to get their head checked! I couldn’t even imagine something like that!
