[mvd]

My biggest ones:

Alison Sudol (A Fine Frenzy,) Leslie Mills, Michelle Branch, Andrea Corr, Joanna Pacitti, Anna Nalick, Bree Sharp, Angie Mattson, Amie Miriello, Kelsey Merritt, Lucy Walsh, Kelly Ogden, Katy Perry, Stacie Rose, Lisa Loeb

Some other notable ones:

[flvegan]

1. Sandra Nasic, Yulia Volkova, Bif Naked, Avril Lavigne

Alanis, Gwen Stefani is still pretty hot...my list could go on for a while.

[mvd]

2. Alanis is an interesting choice

I like her music more than have a crush with her, but her personality always keeps her interesting.

I'll add Gwen to my "other notable crushes." Mostly like Avril for her music.

[flvegan]

5. Her music is why.

She's not the most physically attractive, but she's very talented and mindful and passionate. She also seems pretty true to herself, confident and strong. Hence my crush.

[mvd]

6. I'm like you

I consider things besides looks when listing crushes: personality, if I know they are liberal/Democrats or not, how much I've seen them, age compatibility, intangibles, and even talent.

[LeftyMom]

Don't take this the wrong way, but we're never having sex again.

I just can't chance the possibility of allowing anybody who thinks Gwen Stefani is in any way hot to reproduce.

Can't stand her.

[Aristus]

3. Lisa Loeb and Natalie Maines.

:wow:

[mvd]

4. I forgot about Lisa

Add her to my first list since there's room for one more.

[Fox Mulder]

7. Rihanna, Amy Lee, Cristina Scabbia, Sandra Nasic

Andrea Corr, etc...

[Tikki]

8. Steve Berlin, Mike Watt...a girl crush on Joan Jett,...but, my...

deepest admiration was for Jeffry Hyman AKA Joey Ramone.

None of these are like a passion crush...just admired who they are/ were, their work
and their spirit.


Steve Berlin

Mike Watt

Miss Joanie Jett

Joey


Tikki

[mvd]

9. I added a couple to my OP

That should be it for edits, but I will comment on any mentioned by others that I really forgot.

[RFKHumphreyObama]

10. Let me think

Good post MVD:hi:

Emmy Rossum (actress but also a singer as demonstrated in Phantom of the Opera), Jennifer Paige, Deborah Harry, the Dixie Chicks, Emmylou Harris, Andrea Corr, Stevie Nicks, Elaine Page, Marti Webb, Susannah Fellows and some others that don't come to mind

[mvd]

12. Hi, socialdemocrat1981!

Thanks. :hi:

Jennifer Paige is cute. Deborah is a little old for me, but still looks good for her age, doesn't she?

[MrScorpio]

11. Sade

[NickTheGreek]

13. I like 'em on the skanky side.

[Forkboy]

18. Nothing says class like a "Hello Sailor" tattoo.

:rofl:

[MrCoffee]

14. Kim Deal...

Lucinda Williams, Barbara Brousal (Dan Zanes & Friends), Kim Gordon, Fiona Apple, Jill Cunniff (Luscious Jackson), Patrice Pike (Sister 7), Liz Phair (from her Matador days), Shirley Manson, Hope Sandoval, Juliana Hatfield, Gabriela Quintero (ok, not a singer, but still)

Edited to add Nicole Kidman, because she sang in Moulan Rouge, and that counts.

[mvd]

20. Jill's a very good choice

Nice list in general.

[MrCoffee]

22. lol, I stopped listening to music somewhere around 1998.

[mvd]

27. Jill still looks great

Probably could be in that first list over Katy Perry, now that I think about it.

[MsKandice01]

15. Even as overexposed as she is...Beyonce...

I'm straight but I have always had a major crush on her, even since her Destiny's Child days. She just gets more beautiful as she gets older, too.

[Mesteryo]

16. Natasha Bedingfield

[YellowRubberDuckie]

53. When I first saw that pic, I thought, Debbie Gibson?

LOL

[Mesteryo]

60. I never noticed that..

She really does look like Debbie Gibson. I never found her that attractive but I was pre-pubescent in the 80s.

[Forkboy]

17. Are you kidding? With what I listen to?

Hard to have a crush on this guy.



Though the noose is simply fetching!

Ok, at the moment, it would be Julie Christmas from Made Out Of Babies. Attractive both physically and spiritually, and a voice that can both melt your heart and tear your face off, usually within the same song.



I don't think Susanna Hoffs even needs to be mentioned in these kind of posts. She just goes without saying.

[mvd]

23. LOL

My list would certainly be smaller, too, if I didn't listen to all the genres I do. :-)

[Forkboy]

28. I love that you listen to all the music you do.

I know our tastes have little crossover (Bad Religion maybe?) but I just love to see anyone into music to the degree you are. I know what music does for me, and it's good to see others get that kind of enjoyment and meaning out of it, regardless of what music it is.

I live in a real mixed neighborhood. We have black, white, hispanic, chinese, etc all over the place, and just walking down the street you'll hear 5 different types of music coming from a house or passing car. I love it! I love seeing people into music.

[mvd]

29. Thanks

I appreciate the kind words, and I also like diversity. That's why I disagree with elitists and music critics who think they know more. How can you say how a particular kind of music should affect someone?

Have a great day! :hi:

[Forkboy]

30. "How can you say how a particular kind of music should affect someone?"

And there you have it. Perfectly stated.

I know what I get into is a bit out there (ok, "bit" is an understatement), but it's what hits me, and that's all that matters. Music hits people for so many different reasons that trying to apply your own reasons to everyone else's is a fool's game.

I used to be a real music nazi. Back in the mid 80's I was utterly dumbfounded how anyone couldn't like the Dead Kennedys or Metallica. My main thought was, "Are these people idiots?"

Now that I'm older and can fake maturity better I know that my tastes aren't everyone's tastes. And thank God for that! The diversity is something I've totally learned to appreciate, thanks to many bands that stretched my own concept of what's good and what isn't. And knowing that what I listen to is so out of the ordinary makes it hard to harp on anyone else for what they listen to. When one gets into bands named the Butthole Surfers or Cannibal Corpse it makes it a little hard to criticize someone else's music. ;)

Have a great weekend!!!!

[billyskank]

33. "and can fake maturity better"

lol! Love the humility. :D

[Forkboy]

37. Sorry, I'm still struggling with the real deal.

:D

[mokawanis]

19. Liz Phair

Don't know her music very well but she sure is pretty.

[MrCoffee]

21. Whaaaaat?

You don't know her music very well? Go out and buy Exile In Guyville, right now.


It'll all be better soon.

[mokawanis]

24. I am going to buy that one

It's been on my list of must-have music for a while so I will definitely get it.

[mvd]

25. That's a good start

I'm one of the few it seems who likes her pop stuff, but I'd buy in this order:

1) Exile In Guyville
2) whitechocolatespaceegg (great mix of the indie and pop Liz)
3) Somebody's Miracle

Consider: self-titled (at a B grade, that's her worst IMO)

I actually haven't heard all of Whip-Smart

[Iggo]

26. That chick who sang about them baloons...

...back in the '80s. I loved her in the worst way.

[lady raven]

34. That would be Nena

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nena

[Iggo]

52. Mmm, yes. Baby!!! (n/t)

[Richardo]

31. Alison Krauss

:loveya:

[mvd]

36. I like her, too

I've heard a couple reports she's a Democrat, but just offhand. She seems to avoid politics.

[SoxFan]

32. Showing my age, but...

Maria McKee


Sinead O'Connor


All four Bangles

[p4poetic]

35. Not sure if this counts

Janet Jackson...even though I'm a girl, lol.

[GOPisEvil]

41. Neko Case.

:swoon:

43. Edited some of these to make the links more specific

[WinkyDink]

44. Chad Mitchell, Ricky Martin, and Smokey Robinson.

[MattBaggins]

45. Throw Momma from the train

Women I'd like to ...

[mitchum]

46. mrs mitchum

[Ava]

47. michael buble

tall, brown eyes, nice lips, and brown hair... plus his voice is smooth like buttah. in interviews he seems like a nice guy with a goofy sense of humour i find attractive. *sigh* my kind of guy

[KG]

48. nana mouskouri

[YellowRubberDuckie]

49. My husband thinks I'm completely insane.

I get turned on by Steven Tyler and Joe Perry from Aerosmith. I doubt I would ever want to do anything with them save hug them, but there is a serious sexiness about them.
Paul McCartney is in there too. He's so British. I love it!
Michael Buble, Harry Connick Jr., Adam Levine of Maroon 5 (I often tease my husband about this guy. I could wrap my legs around...sorry. I don't want to get this locked. LOL), Damian Kulash from OK GO is so adorable, and when I was a kid, I was going to marry Elvis, even though he died a year before I was born. I was an odd child.
Duckie

[Ava]

54. Harry Connick Jr. is teh hot

adam levine is too thin. i swear i think he's going to break any minute. :rofl:
he also seems a wee bit too full of himself these days. he was more attractive when maroon 5 had just come onto the scene.

i'm betting that if you like harry connick jr, you like jakob dylan too. he's teh hot too. while both he and connick are both good looking(and both have voices that i like), i have a thing for guys with brown eyes. don't ask me why :rofl:

[YellowRubberDuckie]

50. Sorry...Dupe.

[PassingFair]

51. Here is my 13-year-old's crush.

I think he's pretty hot, too.

(William Beckett of "The Academy Is...")

[BreweryYardRat]

55. We share at least one.

Definite motto on Alison Sudol. Hubba HUBBA. Cristina Scabbia, Enya, Liv Kristine of Leaves' Eyes, Anette Olzon of Nightwish, and Joan Jett probably round out the list.

[mvd]

58. Another thing I respect about Alison..

is how she is very sexy without being in skimpy clothes. Her beauty, grace, winning personality, and talent speak for themselves. As you can see by the pictures I provided, most of my crushes show off sometimes, but Alison has such a special way of being sexy without doing that.

[stanwyck]

56. Bruce Springsteen

and my girl crush is Pink.

[amyrose2712]

57. Trent Reznor is my porn!!!

And Coldplay guy is hot!
