Your favorite 'Blue Eyed' Soul singers....

[Virtual Violet]

I think we are mixing up "white" artists that are crossover (i.e. "black folks liking some rock n roll) vs. blue eyed soul.

Queen - crossover "Another One Bites The Dust"(one of the best baselines ever!)
Pat Benatar - crossover "She belts out those hits" "Love is a Battlefield, Shadows of the Night, Fire and Ice" (I like her)
No Doubt - crossover
Maroon 5 - crossover
The Police - crossover (Love "Roxanne &, Voices Inside My Head)
Lenny Kravitz (our own hybrid )crossover, but definitely a rocker


Hall and Oates - Blue eyed soul, with a spash of pop rock
Robin Thicke - Blue eyed soul
Teena Marie - Blue eyed soul
Jon B - Blue eyed soul (underrated, CD's are consistenly good, needs a comeback soon)
Joss Stone - Blue eyed soul
Michael McDonald - Blue eyed soul

I think we might be able to add Phil Collins/Genesis to that list.... "In the Air Tonight" is another one of those classics (thanks to Miami Vice). And where do we place little Justin? Crossover I think.

LOVE Pat Benatar, Love Maroon 5, the Police, Hall & Oates.... Lawd havemercy, I would LOVE to get Lenny Kravitz in a room alone for a couple two three days, um, hours, er, I mean minutes.....
dang, what was I saying??? LOL

Oh yes.... I totally agree with VirtualViolet about Jon B. He was consistently good, and I would love to see a comeback (but he did have a CD out what, in 05 or 06?)

Great topic, I could talk about music for days!

Don't forget Bobby Caldwell from back in the day! Some of you may be old enough to remember, at least I hope so!

I LOVE that song- it's a classic! I didn't even know he was white though!
