Another piece of current info to prove my point that Miz Nicks is still relevant.

^ Are you equating popular with relevant? I'd argue that Ann Wilson isn't exactly relevant either, iconic for sure (like Stevie) and she's getting more votes than Stevie.

The story is about her (wilson) so it is not surprising that she got alot of votes. Part of being relevsant is how one is viewed in the public eye and how topical one is. The fact that Stevie may steel the spotlight from the person that the article is about says a lot about our Miz Nicks.

But I am not getting into yet another argument proving that she is relevant. So nuff said.

Stevie only needs about 450 more votes to catch up!

I'm confused, you brought it up but you don't want to discuss it?

I rarely see Stevie in the press so I don't think she's particularly topical, personally, and that list mainly pits her against other artists from the 70s and 80s. The most up to date artist there is Sheryl Crow!

There was another thread where her relevance was discussed. At this point it is a matter of opinion. Some say she isn't some say she is.

Being on a list to vote for the best female rock vocalist of all time does not make one relevant today. I notice Pat is on that list too.

I voted for Stevie, but I would have to say that technically Ann is the better vocalist. I assume most people are doing what I did - voting for their favorite, not the best; or we're so biased that we refuse to believe that anyone else could possibly be better.

I think the internet is obviously having a hand in these results - Heart & Stevie/Mac have so many fansites & message boards compared to other older/classic artists, I'd be willing to bet that even though it's been pretty dead around these parts lately, they still see more traffic & more "come on guys, you have to vote!" posts than, say, Janis or Grace Slick's boards (assuming there are some.)

And btw - our girl is now getting her ass kicked by about 1500 votes.
