For me Simon & Garfunkel were two amazing musicians, Simon being an incredible writter. And they have made some excellent songs...real classics. Actually S&G are one of Yes main influences, along with the Beatles!!! Did you know that???

To be honest, most of those on the list suck I rarely listen to something non prog, off that list it's The Cure and Skid Row.

I listen about 2/3 of the time to other music than prog. My taste includes several of your options, but I went with Simon and Garfunkel.

STING - I consider him and Peter Gabriel to be two modern musical geniuses.
Also when I'm in the mood of listening to something but really don't want to deepen in the music I enjoy:
  • Frank Sinatra
  • Phil Collins (in the list)
  • Django Reinhardt
  • The Police
  • Gary Moore
  • Jeff Beck
  • Maurice Ravel
  • Ludvig van Beethoven
  • Heitor Villa-Lobos
  • Astor Piazzolla

From the list I listened to all artists from America up to Elton John with no exception - I still hear some of them. Below Elton I didn't pay much attention for all of them.

Out of the list there are hundreds of others I listened to like Beatles, Stones, Who, Led, Byrds, Creedence, Animals, Donovan, not counting dozens of Brazilian singers.

So I voted for America... 'I need you' is one of the best pop-rock ballads IMO.

I think the only stuff I presently have, which isn't in Prog Archives would be 2 Blind Guardian albums, and 1 Jefferson Starship album...that's it...

Kate Bush.............................!!!!Aerial

Would love to have seen seen Robert Smith and Roger Waters on one stage live................

ahhh, those were the days!

their best album for me though is Disintegration... followed closely by Kiss me Kiss me Kiss me and Wish...
