Music today doesn't allow for much personality - everything is produced and manufactured to conform with what the audience demands and all elements of controversy, bar one case I can think of (Gaga) are removed.

30 years ago the legends would freely party like mad, do cocaine, drink binges, get into fights - nowadays popstars wouldn't dream of doing **** like this. The only exception I can think of is Amy Winehouse.

In short: there's a lot less scope to stick out from the crowd and appear truly iconic and a huge character. As much as it pains me to say it - I think GaGa is the strongest candidate.

Can see her fizzling about to be honest, unless she totally re-invents herself.

I guess the same could have been said about Britney at one time though, look what happened there. GaGa is a kooky dresser and makes catchy pop songs.

You are making it out like Winehouse has been around 20 years or something.

Lady Gaga without a doubt. If you go to one of her shows, you will realise.

The truth is there are no 'greats' in popular music. The industry is driven by money and manipulating young listeners. An artist's success and influence rarely corresponds to their talents in this situation.

Winehouse lost it before she got really really big. She is a good artist but not a great, she will be remembered more for her drug antics.

exactly that was her time to cement herslef.....(I thin she's amazing) but if she can't hack it now how will she manage to do it again, the next album will come out she'll be fine for a few months, gets some money from it and becomes junkie amy again.

Pretty much, if she has a destructive personality, then not much people can do really.

i'd love to see her keep it together and all but the temptation will be hard once she gets hugely famous again, i mean i think we all know her album will be tremendous.....its the hanger-ons that'll be her downfall.

If she gets hugely famous again, alot more female competition about now. When she was coming up, people were just sort of going off the whole indie thing again.

She's not a favourite artist of mine personally, but I can see Lilly Allen becoming an 'icon.'

oh yes, I agree with this. I think she has quite a Marilyn Monroe quality to her, we'll look back in 20 years time and she'll be that wild child, face of a generation type.

I think InOne means like the likes of Madonna or Michael Jackson, you could hardly call Amy, Daft Punk or the Gorillaz up to their standard even though I do like DP and the Gorillaz.

yeah honey the whole point of the thread was pondering whether there ever will be another one to their standard, obviously not is the currently one we just cant find. The debate is who of the current crop has the potential to go on to that status.
