So Steph and Erin have thoughts on my top 5 singer/songwriters. It seems Patti Smith is not as cool as I thought, Neko Case deserves a higher listing, and so on. Now I have to revise my list not because of influence from others but because I missed Daniel Johnston!!!

My new male singer list:

1. Neil Young

2. Bob Dylan

3. Elliott Smith

4. Johnny Cash

5. Nick Cave –> Daniel Johnston

Rules for the Mimosa Music Top 5

1. List 5 singer/songwriters, and yes, you can do two lists. One for female and one for male.

2. The musicians are, for the most part, solo artists not part of bands. Kim Gordon doesn’t qualify ’cause she’s better known as part of Sonic Youth, and same with John Lennon or Paul McCartney.

3. They don’t have to be contemporary.

4. Tag whomever you want or not. I just want to read about your musical tastes.

I’m tagging Erin, Steph, Lisa, Becky, and Lolly. What are your faves?
