If this is blurry, you can read it at Billboard.com
Diana Ross is at 10. I think you can understand why such a fuss is made because if you add on all those Supremes hits, the impact was significant

This is an old list - I’m looking for the new. The new is only solo female singers; this one is female groups as well. On this one Supremes at 6 and Diana at 11.

Does this work? New list
excellent Rob, thank you for your bother! yes it works.
I love lists like this that are performance based, rather than ones like at Rolling Stone where they pull the rankings out of their biased ass. Not to in any way imply its perfect.....Gloria Estafan gets points included while being in a group, Stevie Nicks doesn't.
Barbra Streisand: #14
Poor man's version: #52
The two glaring omissions that I see are Nancy Wilson and Shirley Bassey. Either one of them could sing most of these other women under the table.
This is objective based on the Billboard charts - so it isn’t about who is bestQuote:

And it's funny that some Americans like Debbie Harry would probably rate higher in a UK ranking than a US one.
And if this chart only covered the last 40 years Diana would probably struggle to be listed at all.
This is a chart based on sales, airplay, streams, downloads. Artistry and talent are not factors on this list. Evaluations of artistry and talent are much more subjective than an evaluation based on numbers and statistics. So such lists, whether they are based on sales/airplay/streams, or one that goes in a more subjective direction, should just be taken for what they are. If your fandom of an artist is dependent on being validated by such lists then maybe you're not much of a fan of the artist as you think you are as you don't have confidence in your own taste.
Amen to all this, Spreadinglove.Quote:

Unfortunately it’s not
I wonder if this is a form of sabotage to make us use their site
Maybe this one is large enough to read:

Might be even bigger
Great to see Diana at number 10, but can anyone tell me WHAT ON EARTH Brenda Lee charted this decade [[2020-present). Was it Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree? That's all I can think would have charted recently.
It’s “of all time” - see Lesley Gore and Dusty Springfield
But doesn't the red shading mean "Artist has charted during this decade...".Quote:

I saw this posted elsewhere in a larger, clearer version, and the first line says this us from 2015.
I would imagine the likes of Cardi B and Nicki Minaj and Rhianna are much further up the list.
The one here is brand newQuote:

And all the reality of the world, Diana Ross should be near the top her supreme songs are her soul songs with back ups, just back up singers the most of the time it was the AdanteS And that’s a fact, watch the videos
She is near the top; combine her Supremes songs with her solo songs and she might be at the top.
Yes the Andantes and others sing background but so do Mary Cindy Flo Barbara and that sound in the early days, the call and response, so calculated but so soothing, was as remarkable as Taylor Swift is today
Thank you Rob.Quote:

Yeah I would too - just for funQuote:
