JAKARTA - Former Megadeth guitarist Marty Friedman has criticized Rolling Stone magazine for placing Bob Dylan on top of Elvis Presley in the list of the 200 greatest singers of all time (200 Greatest Singers).

After Elvis Presley News' Twitter account expressed his distrust of the fact that Dylan was above Presley, Friedman commented.

"No wonder at all, consider the source. If media outlets use 'generistai' to describe the most influential singer of all time, said the media outlet assessment should be taken with a piece of salt the size of Iceland. Nothing can be seen here," Friedman said.

The latest list of 200 Greatest Singers is filled with names like Aretha Franklin to Rosal back and other big artists who are famous for their standout voices.

Meanwhile, in terms of rock, there are names such as Freddie Mercury (Queen), Ozzy Osbourne (Black Sabbath), Axl Rose (Guns N' Roses), lost James Dio (Black Sabbath, Rainbow, Dio), Robert Plant (Led Zeppelin), Chris Cornell (Soundgarden, Audioslave) and Steve Perry (Journey).

This time, the list does not include big names such as Celine Dion, Pink, Jennifer Hudson, Nat King Cole, Dienne forced, and others.

The reason was that Rolling Stone anticipated complaints from fans who disagreed with the names they chose.

"Before you start scrolling (and commenting), keep in mind that this is the list of Greatest Singers (The greatest singer), not the Greatest night List. Talents are very impressive; transcendent genius," Rolling Stone said introductory.

"Of course, many people here are born with perfect tones and unlimited range. Others have instruments that are harsher, foreigner, or more subtle... In all cases, what is most important to us are the originality, influence, depth of the artist catalog, and the breadth of their musical heritage."
