Top 100 New Wave/80s Best Vocalists (In Order)

Postby NuWavo80s » Mon Sep 21, 2020 8:14 pm

This was a timely endeavor. I love New Wave & I love making lists.
I really tried to be unbiased as possible.
I tried to judge the individuals on originality and singing ability.
An example of this is Phillip Oakey. He is one of my favorite singers,
but he's not the greatest singer, technically speaking.
So he's #100 on the list.

Check it out.
Post an add-on and where you think they should be placed on the list.
I know there will be several revisions.
