Now I can see Taylor Swift working up her time to get in there.

I guess I am old school. There once was a HUGE difference between rock n roll and pop. Other times its a fine line. It can be challenging. But in my head I see rock n roll groups writing their own songs, taking a year to make an album, playing ever instrument, no voice alterations on singing, all this with no videos before MTV. Many pop artists on the other hand are package materials. Many times a performer is brought a song to sing. Its marketed to teens and put on the top 40 rotation.
There are times rock performers like Stevie do pop songs. She has done many like Talk To Me and Everyday, etc. Long story short is there really any comparison between Madonna and Stevie Nicks? Madonna does have talent but her career was excelled by controversy and many times faked controversy. Madonna is a genius the way she markets herself and she is the biggest pop star in the world. But Stevie and Christine don't need to burn crosses or sing about their virginity to get hit songs.
