2159 comments so far (post your own)Woah! Didn't know The White Stripes are eligible. But I just heard that they combined last year and this year. Posted by John R.C. on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 07:08am |
the offical website hasnt updated yet, odd. theres no youtube upload yet either. anyway. ZEVON PLEASE also joy division!!!!! LETS GOOOOO very sad about no devo tho :(( Posted by Will M on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 07:09am |
Just by looking at the nominees list, I would count Kate Bush, Warren Zevon, and Willie Nelson as virtual locks. Posted by John R.C. on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 07:13am |
Wait so they screwed Coldplay over? Posted by Mat r on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 07:14am |
I just now noticed that it's 14 nominees instead of the usual 15/16. Wow, could've used it on Coldplay or other artists for those slots. Posted by John R.C. on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 07:20am |
The biggest disappointment for me is the direction to go with a smaller group of nominees and possibly inductees. Bad direction for the Hall to go down. Posted by Donnie on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 07:37am |
theres 0 competion in the new wave slot, joy division are going straight in. that was devos problem, too much competion in that lane. interesting, i wonder of dave grohl has given up on devo, i really really hope not Posted by Will M on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 07:37am |
Yeah, it's a pretty small list of nominees. Wouldn't have minded if the list was a bit bigger. All deserving picks though. None of us saw them combining two years of eligibility but I'm fine with that. Given that they did that, I'm surprised Coldplay wasn't nominated. Especially since the list is so small, they wouldn't have to knock someone else off to make room. Maybe they didn't want too many first timers.

I'm actually pleased with the number of nominees because this is probably the first time, I wouldn't mind any of them in. All are Hall worthy to me! A great class is guaranteed to me no matter what. Posted by rorschach on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 07:44am |
Inductees won't be announced until early May. Good lord that's a long time to wait! Posted by Michael W. on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 07:44am |
Now that the 2023 nominees have been announced, Which ones do you see being inducted (If 7 inductees again) and Which ones do you see as potential spoilers?. Posted by richie on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 07:49am |
THE NOMINEES FOR THE 2023 ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME Posted by Roy on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 07:50am |
I probably would give this list a solid B. A good blend of men and female artists. Also, it runs the spectrum from Country to Rap to Pop to Metal. They could have waited on The White Stripes and Missy Elliott. It's like they put The White Stripes on so many of the HOF predictors would not receive a perfect paper. Finally, they have Warren Zevon and Willie Nelson on the ballot. It will be interesting to see if they both are inducted. Rage Against The Machine and Soundgarden on the same ballot. My guess 1 of the 2 will be inducted. George Michael is an interesting Wild Card here. He's been dead for over 5 years now but he was very popular with Wham! and in his Solo career. I would have went with DEVO or INXS but they do have Joy Division/New Order. It's a competitive ballot. Iron Maiden should be right on the cut line. A Tribe Called Quest had some good support on the voting last year. I could see them having another good showing. Very surprised Diana Ross and Mariah Carey were not on the list. I see Kate Bush being squeezed out again as Cyndi Lauper and Sheryl Crow are very popular. The B-52s did not make the list. A little surprised with all the buzz they were getting. The Spinners are uphill again. I would have went with Kool & The Gang. I think Willie Nelson is a lock. He's going to be 90 years old and should receive votes from the voters. Bad Company, Foreigner, Jethro Tull were shut out again. A little surprising. Would have enjoyed a 16 or 17 nominee ballot. This 14 nominee ballot is more compact and very competitive. Other than Rage Against The Machine and The Spinners, I think the other 12 could be inducted this ballot. I was surprised Sheryl Crow was on the list this time. She was on my list for 2023-2024. Rage Against The Machine is getting into J. Geils Band and MC5 territory if they fail to be inducted again. The NOMCOM did the right thing with NO MC5 or New York Dolls. Those bands had their chances to earn induction. Some new blood in the Nominations. There's plenty of interesting combinations that could be inducted. Roy is great at predicting possible combinations. I hope Soundgarden earns induction. Would open it up for Alice In Chains and Stone Temple Pilots etc. Could see Kate Bush receiving 1 of those Special Awards. Posted by KING on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 08:14am |
No Kingston Trio Posted by Roy on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 08:17am |
Bummed that The B-52's got snubbed again. They got so much positive publicity this past year for their farewell tour, that I really expected this would be their year. Posted by Shrek on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 08:35am |

Whooaa this is great the official Nominees for 2023. It has diversity. Posted by Ben on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 08:41am |
Wow. Zero Classic Rock. Jack White is the obvious successor of the Jeff Lynn trend that has been going on since Electric Light Orchestra was inducted. (Maybe you could argue someone from 2016 was part of the trend, like Terry Kath, Ritchie Blackmore, or even Dr. Dre, but Jeff Lynn is an obvious start.)

Since FRL didn't list the individual members of the Spinners who will be included if inducted, they are Henry Fambrough, Billy Henderson, Pervis Jackson, Bobbie Smith and Philippé Wynne. Henry Fambough, who is still with the (current version of) the Spinners, and the only one of the nominees still living. Posted by Joe S. on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 09:47am |

Rock Hall of Fame: George Michael, Kate Bush, Missy Elliott, White Stripes Lead Nominees Posted by Roy on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 10:12am |
I think JD/NO is safe to be inducted. Posted by chasingWildcat on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 10:14am |
ChasingWildCat, Posted by richie on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 10:21am |
Way too much to process in one post on a break at work. I will say, not to pile on, but Richie can't admit he was wrong about jd/no. They're going in based on trends. And I think no one picked the stripes because the consensus was they weren't eligible til next year. They are slam dunks for this ballot. Also, only 14 noms is insulting and disappointing because of the sheer backlog. Literally every act on this ballot has a chance to get in this year Posted by K-Dawg on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 10:35am |
And we're back! Posted by RG on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 10:45am |
Oh also a 14 artist ballot is not bad at all as long as they keep a 7 artist + 3-6 special category inductee class. Fingers crossed. Posted by RG on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 10:47am |
My predictions for the 2023 inductees are: Posted by richie on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 10:53am |
Just off the top of my head, here's how I'd rank the likelihood of each artist being inducted. This will likely change by the time the inductees are announced. Posted by Michael W. on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 10:55am |
I have Covid this whole week so I've got all the time in the world to digest this list. Posted by Will M on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 11:06am |
I'm very curious if they actually do 6 to 7 again instead of 5 to 6 despite the short ballot. The risk of no people of colour going in with a 5-6 person class feels way too high Posted by Mat r on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 11:06am |
JD/NO is one of the most influential band in 80s. They have influenced lots of hall of famers like Radiohead, the Cure, U2, NiN, Depeche Mode. Members of these bands will likely vote for them with no doubt. Also, JD/NO has multiple greatest songs and albums recognized by rolling Stones magazine, they are recognized by industrial people. T.Rex and Roxy music also do not reach huge success in America, but they are inducted in FYE. Hence, it is reasonable to think JD/NO will be likely inducted. Posted by chasingWildcat on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 11:07am |
Anybody have an idea as to when and where the ceremony will occur? Or does that get announced at a later date? Posted by Robert F. on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 11:08am |
I think Nelson is locked to be inducted as well as he?should be. Posted by chasingWildcat on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 11:10am |

HOLY CRAP THAT IS A FANTASTIC LIST! Posted by Garrus on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 11:34am |
Joy Division are an absolute lock, Kate Bush I also think is a lock but with this populist ballot I'm more willing to see her getting AME. I actually think with a smaller ballot the class might be bigger, it's really hard to exclude any of these acts. The spinners are clearly a Questlove favorite, so if they're not voted in, AME for them Posted by Will M on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 11:37am |

I'm gonna try and predict this year's inductees based on last years inductees: Posted by Raichu on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 12:58pm |
I know very little about George Micheal personally. I've never heard most of his non wham hit songs, wasnt born yet in the 80s and 90s. My musical perspective is like entirely focused on classic rock. Did not know that about George Micheal. It's very sad that his career would be derailed by that yknow. I only view things from my modern perspective too, so George Micheal I've only seen as that iconic 80s pop guy. Other than wham bc I know the wham songs Posted by Will M on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 13:03pm |
I would say that Willie Nelson is easily inducted as a Performer and Warren Zevon gets a A ME award. Also I think Soundgarden finally get inducted. But I am still absorbing the rest Posted by Ben on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 13:19pm |
Willie Nelson is in because they like to induct icons regardless of genre crossovers. Posted by Sean on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 13:37pm |
I see people citing a lack of USA Top 40 hits for The Joy Division and New Order as a reason for them not being inducted this year. Two thoughts… that's why it was called "alternative" (before that meant something different in the '90s), and also, the legacy of both groups (but especially New Order) casts a much longer shadow today than the charts suggests. New Order songs are almost cliche "needle drops" for movies or trailers that want to instantly tell you it's the 1980s. Wonder Woman 1984 used New Order's Blue Monday to such a degree that younger fans probably do think it was a huge pop hit in the USA. Posted by Bookhouse on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 14:03pm |
What is more, new order is also extremely important in electronic music history, which will increase its case. I think their synth-pop contemporaries and people following them (depeche mode, eurythmics, u2, the cure, nine inch nails, radiohead ) will vote for jd/no. Also, jd/no is well recognized by critics of The Rolling Stone Magazine. It has three all-time great albums and songs in rolling stone's list.

Ok, so, I know it hasn't even been a day yet, but I already have predictions for next year. HOWEVER, it is just 1 prediction, and it is that Coldplay is definitely a lock for next year's ballot. My theory is that The Stripes being nominated this year is an experiment of sorts, testing the waters a bit in case they decide to merge years again, leaving Coldplay and possibly some of the other big newly eligible acts (DC, QOTSA, Muse, Lauryn Hill, Britney, etc) for next year. Posted by Raichu on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 15:27pm |
Also I'm sure we can all agree that this ballot is 10x better than last year's, yes? Posted by Raichu on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 15:29pm |
None of this year's nominees are in the Top 10 in voting on Future Rock Legends. We're not getting anything right this year. Posted by Roy on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 15:32pm |

And once again the question is begged: Just who did Ian Anderson piss off and what did he say to piss them off? 30 years eligible and Jethro Tull not even having a nomination is unconscionable! One of the many reasons no one considers the hall credible. And I'm starting to wonder the same thing about Billy Corgan, although it's a lot easier to imagine him pissing a LOT of people off, but Smashing Pumpkins are among the iconic 90s rock bands I figured would be nominated within 2-3 years of eligibility. It has not been 8! Once again the Hall of Shame! Posted by Mike on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 17:40pm |
Interesting thing I noticed on the rock hall website page about the white stripes: they single out Michel Gondry. Have they ever done that for a music video director before? They didn't mention hype Williams on Missy's page despite also talking about her music videos so I'm surprised. Posted by Mat r on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 17:47pm |
Missy Elliott, Joy Division/New Order, Sheryl Crow, RATM, Kate Bush & Willie Nelson are pretty much likely choices for induction this year. As for Soundgarden, Iron Maiden & Tribe, they might need one more nomination in order to finally be inducted. Cyndi Lauper would likely take 2 nominations since that happened with Pat Benatar. Then Warren Zevon & The Spinners would be sure things not to get voted in as performers but instead through special categories like Early Influence & Musical Excellence. The White Stripes are very worthy but they're facing a little competition with aforementioned acts RATM, Maiden & Soundgarden plus it's too soon for them.

This year's batch of nominees are continuing the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and its commitment to diversifying the nomination process and who is considered. I think the nominees are well qualified for induction and I could see each of them go in now or years from now. Although I must admit I am not sure if Sheryl Crow is the lock many think she is. Where I to decide which 6 or 7 Performers get inducted (and I do hope the amount of people who are inducted is as large as last year), my vote is going to be for the following.

I too wonder if the performers list might wind up pretty white. Missy Elliott is phenomenally successful, but I'm not sure the older guard of music critics nor the classic rock performer voters really know her well enough to vote for her. She may very well be handicapped by not elevating her name brand via generating a ton of controversy (like Eminem or Tupac & Biggie), much like LL Cool J was never particularly controversial and kept getting snubbed.

oh damn Shrek, did not know you had those connections. would absolutely love the wailers being considered and hopefully inducted! 2012 didnt fix enough of the backing artists problems, hopefully that might lead to more like crazy horse the belmonts silver bullet band the mothers of invention, and full bands with just a solo artist like wings runaways and chic Posted by Will M on Wednesday, 02/1/2023 @ 21:36pm |
I see Kate Bush, and probably the White Stripes, as being favorites to be inducted. Kate gives them almost no choice, because her song was so hugely popular in its revival in Stranger Things, and that will generate a huge buzz and an instant guarantee of eyeballs towards the RRHOF. Likewise, the White Stripes, similar to Green Day in 2014, are fresh in the minds of younger music fans, and Jack White has been ever present since the disbanding of the Stripes. Remember, the Hall is all about increasing visitors and popularity. They will listen to the crotchety old people, so to speak, in small portions, but it's the younger generations who are the future of the franchise.

Hey guys, I haven't been here for awhile. Good comments. If you are interested, I have a YouTube channel called Amity Tracks which covers music. I just posted a video on this batch of nominees with my thoughts and predictions. Would love it if you wanted to check it out and comment with your thoughts and predictions. Finally Joy Division/New Order. Figured they'd do that after Small Faces/Faces. I've also argued for years for Willie Nelson. If Cash is in, it makes sense to have Willie.

Repeating a comment over and over doesn't make it a fact. Joy Division/New Order had commercial success in America and are hugely influential to the medium. Last year everyone was saying the Eurythmics wouldn't get in because of Duran Duran being on the same ballot. They went in, and the committee has a mission to get in all the big names in 80s new wave. Your little perception may not see it, but Joy Division/New Order are on that pantheon with Eurythmics, Duran Duran, Depeche Mode, the Cure and the Cars. Repeat that silly copy and paste comment all you want, it doesn't make it the least bit true. Posted by K-Dawg on Thursday, 02/2/2023 @ 00:43am |

Madonna has her dubut in 1983 and she is inducted in 2008. So can the White Stripes. Posted by chasingWildcat on Thursday, 02/2/2023 @ 02:48am |
Yeah, but they are still using 1997 as the "25 year rule" for this year because of a change in schedule in 2020. We didn't even predict the 1998 eligible artists and we expected them for next year's ballot. Posted by John R.C. on Thursday, 02/2/2023 @ 03:03am |
Forgot to add that the Hall also unexpected made this rule change and we know of this in the announcement. So yeah, I'm sticking The White Stripes as my biggest surprise for this year's ballot. Posted by John R.C. on Thursday, 02/2/2023 @ 03:06am |

I wonder how many nominees will be inducted in as there are only 14 nominees. I think only 6 nominees will be inducted. Posted by chasingWildcat on Thursday, 02/2/2023 @ 03:53am |
I think there will be 7 this year. Too stacked of a ballot to just consider 6. I also feel people are underestimating Rage's chance and that's not me being a Rage fanboy. Posted by Plebeian on Thursday, 02/2/2023 @ 05:55am |

are we gonna do the inductee draft? Posted by Will M on Thursday, 02/2/2023 @ 14:39pm |
I see Kate Bush being this year's LL Cool J/Judas Priest (in other words, She'll get in via Musical Excellence this year just like LL Cool J and Judas Priest did the past two years, rather than as a Performer). I think that this is a tough ballot for Kate once again this year, I do think that she'll get in this year because of the resurgence that she has had this past year, but I see her getting the LL Cool J/Judas Priest treatment here this year.

Kate Bush- can't sing Posted by Garrus on Thursday, 02/2/2023 @ 15:39pm |
I am thrilled Cyndi Lauper finally got nominated. I loved her music when I was a kid and still do. I hope she gets inducted this year. Long overdue. Posted by Chris on Thursday, 02/2/2023 @ 15:43pm |
I don't know why people are doubting Sheryl. She's literally the most commercially successful artist on the ballot (Tuesday night music club moved 7 million units and pretty everything for the 15 years after went multi platinum or platinum) Has been consistently having rock, country, and pop hit for almost 30 years. First 3 albums are very well liked critical (she's on the rolling stone 500). She's pretty much as strong a contender as anyone. Posted by Mat r on Thursday, 02/2/2023 @ 15:51pm |

Disappointed Bad Company was not nominated. It should have been their year for nomination. I don't see Paul Rodgers inducted twice so I hope he gets in with Bad Company. Agree with Richie about Kate Bush. I don't see her being inducted on this strong of a ballot. Most likely Musical Excellence. I also don't see Joy Division/New order as an automatic. It took Depeche Mode a couple kicks at the can to earn induction. Even a slam dunk like Beck and Radiohead did not earn induction 1st time around. I would have loved to see Bryan Adams or INXS nominated. Mariah Carey not earning a nomination was a little shocking. I thought it would be her year. Iron Maiden intrigues me as they could have built up a strong vote total from the British block of HOF voters. They usually are mentioned as 1 of most music fans FAV heavy metal group for those who aren't the biggest metal fans. Enjoyed Roy's displaying of possible Induction combinations. It should be an outstanding class whatever combination. I would have liked to see Salt N Pepa instead of Missy Elliott. They were 1 of the pioneers of women rappers and had platinum albums. I'm surprised they were not nominated. RRHOF has been fortunate with this backlog. They should have strong classes for the next 10-15 years. Willie Nelson definitely benefited from Dolly Parton's recent induction. Her induction was a grand success and Country Western artist legends are now given more consideration. Plus, Willie's turning 90 end of April. Should be a great birthday and celebration for Willie. Posted by KING on Thursday, 02/2/2023 @ 16:03pm |
How many of the top five acts in the fan vote this year (Cyndi Lauper, George Michael, Willie Nelson, Soundgarden and Iron Maiden) do you think will get in this year?. I think that they'll induct 4 of the 5 this year and I'd bet on Cyndi, George, Willie and Soundgarden getting in this year and Iron Maiden being the one that misses out on induction again this year.

What a joke. Where's Dan Fogelberg? Have you not added him in as eligible since he passed and you forgot about him? You remember every artist but him. Fiox this or there will be a lawsuit. I am voting for George Michael, The Spinners (long overdue), Warren Zevon. You see I love and follow the music and have for years (I'm 64 years old) and I still get Billboard magazine. For you to leave out an artist who died of cancer and when he was alive contributed many lasting songs and albums. Kate Bush is not deserving of a couple of unique odd albums. Fix this now!

It might be a hot take but I'm pretty confident in the spinners. They weren't unexpected but they seem oddly out of place on this ballot, really singlular position. This could get them in on the ballot, or they could be left in the dust. If they fall short on the fan vote, then AME for them, but they're definitely on there for a reason Posted by Will M on Thursday, 02/2/2023 @ 17:58pm |
Sheryl Crow is an interesting case because she's had a ton of success and is well-known in the industry, but was never really an innovator or game changer, just someone who could craft quality songs. She was a backup singer for superstars like Michael Jackson and Don Henley for a decade before her solo career started, so she is super-connected. And the Hall obviously wants to reward her for showing up and being part of the team. It seems 50/50 that she gets in, but it seems that way for all the nominees this year. Guess that's what happens when everyone on the ballot is deserving. Posted by Michael W. on Thursday, 02/2/2023 @ 17:59pm |

If Warren Zevon gets in this year, Do you think that Harry Nilsson would be next in line and probably the last 70's Singer-Songwriter to get nominated and inducted next year for 2024, It will be 30 years after his death next year (He died in 1994), so do you think that if Zevon gets in this year, that Nilsson would be the last 70's Singer-Songwriter that gets nominated and inducted next year in 2024?.

Do you guys think that The Spinners could surprise this year because they're the only R&B act nominated this year unlike the previous three times that they have been nominated (in 2012, they had to go up against Rufus With Chaka Khan, Donna Summer and War, in 2015, they had to go up against Chic, The Marvelettes, War again and Bill Withers (who was the only one of that group that got in that year) and in 2016 (the first year that Classic Rock dominated the nominee and inductee list), they had to go up against Chic again, The J.B.'s, Janet Jackson and Chaka Khan (solo), but this year is different, They have the R&B slot all to themselves, so do you think that they could surprise and get in this year and break the logjam of 70's R&B/Soul acts and open the floodgates for more acts from that era to get in if The Spinners get in this year?.

That list is very interesting, personally I'd hate to read that I was ranked 12th if was tribe or the Zevon or Micheal estates. Notice how the spinners aren't last… I got a feeling they're gonna get in and suprise a lot of people. I'd seriously bet money on that. Missy being 1, not that suprising, Kate being 2, is very very good and, just like I expected, they can't pass her up. This ranking means absolutely nothing for induction potential, but it's cool to hear more transparency. What I'd really love is to know what other artists were discussed Posted by Will M on Thursday, 02/2/2023 @ 19:58pm |
Seems reasonable on the committee although I think having George Michael way at the bottom seems too low considering hes the biggest record seller and chart topper among all the nominees. I think there are people here underestimating Kate Bush's resurgance from Stranger Things since she and Willie Nelson are most likely the sure thing of getting induction. We also undersestimate black artists here in the website so Missy Elliot getting in wont be a shocker Posted by jayk on Thursday, 02/2/2023 @ 20:05pm |

Willie Nelson is going in. He deserves it, but the list of country artists I support going in is short and sweet.

As of right now, this is who I'm predicting at the moment: Posted by John R.C. on Friday, 02/3/2023 @ 07:27am |
I feel like a Zevon tribute would be the highlight of the night. Start out with Letterman giving the most heartfelt, incredible speech. It has to be letterman, he mentioned Zevon while inducting Pearl Jam and ofc Paul Schaffer would use that connection. Then video package tribute, has the enjoy every sandwich clip. An idea I have would be Mills Berry and Buck are the backing band for all the performances because of the REM Zevon connection, Hindu love gods and the sentimental hygiene albums. Billy Joel comes out for Werewolves of London, Jackson brown takes the mic for lawyers guns n money, Micheal Stipe sings on Keep me in your heart, creating an REM reunion in the process. This would be the ideal but it might Not happen like that but I'd love for this scenario Posted by Will M on Friday, 02/3/2023 @ 07:53am |
I think that people are underestimating Sheryl Crow and Cyndi Lauper's chances for induction and overestimating Kate Bush (as a Performer) and Joy Division/New Order's chances for induction this year, I think the goal for the Rock Hall is to have big names for the HBO ceremony that can sell tickets and be big draws at the ceremony and the Rock Hall is more focused on commercialism these days, so I think that Willie Nelson and George Michael are locks and Sheryl Crow, Missy Elliott and Cyndi Lauper are very likely, and Warren Zevon will get in too and maybe either Soundgarden or The White Stripes (most likely Soundgarden, I can see The White Stripes waiting a year just like Radiohead did).

My updated predictions for the 2023 inductees are: Posted by richie on Friday, 02/3/2023 @ 08:41am |

I've analyzed and studied the Rock and Rock and Roll hall of fame induction process and have come up with 7 criteria that the Hall uses to select their inductee's. It's important to remember that they don't consider record sales or chart performance in their selection process which is why many fans are surprised every year when their favorites don't get in. But here's the list Posted by Ralib Allen on Saturday, 02/4/2023 @ 03:43am |
My rationale for puttitng Kate Bush in as a main inductee is simple. She is the biggest name in music, or one of, along with the likes of the Weeknd, Taylor Swift and Harry Styles, of 2022. Her song went absolutely nuclear thanks to Stranger Things. Inducting her, for the RRHOF, gives it a marketing gem. They are trying their damnedest to increase the popularity and notoriety of the Hall. It gets younger fans, eyeballs and fanfare for adding her. We, as a whole, tend to view the RRHOF balloting from a more nostalgic, historic or cyclical viewpoint. From a commercial and popular view, they will increase profit for the Hall by going the route of Kate Bush, Missy Elliott, and the White Stripes. I'm not saying they'll all be inducted, but it drives it further away from the old aging fans of 60s and 70s music, and the rock populists who are trying to gatekeep the Hall in diminishing numbers.

George Michael has surpassed Cyndi Lauper for # 1 in the fan poll! Posted by Roy on Saturday, 02/4/2023 @ 10:41am |
The Hall is designed to induct influential artists that's why Kate Bush was nominated 3 times even before Running up That Hill blew up. She has had a huge impact on other artists and is innovative and original. Even in America the song was huge and was the most streamed song for weeks it should have been number one. All of this without giving interviews and without promoting herself on TicToc, Twitter, instagram and so on. Posted by Joeey Me on Saturday, 02/4/2023 @ 11:26am |
Joeey me Posted by Mat r on Saturday, 02/4/2023 @ 11:43am |
Kate Bush should not be inducted into the Rock Hall. While she may have had some influence, I don't feel that she had enough in America to warrant induction. Others may be have other opinions, and that is fine. I consider myself a fairly knowledgeable observer of the music scene for the last 40 years, and that is my view on the matter.—Mark Posted by Mark Tesla on Saturday, 02/4/2023 @ 11:47am |

Out of all the nominees, Kate Bush would be the top 3 of getting in because of how Running Up That Hill was spotlighted last year. New Order/Joy Division could fill that new wave 80s spot because of their acclaim. Certainly muich much better than having INXS or B-52s on that spot Posted by new person on Saturday, 02/4/2023 @ 12:20pm |

I'm contemplating if I should pick White Stripes getting in since the ballot voters will likely just vote for 1 freshman eligible with Missy Elliot filling that spot. Also Jack White appeared dismissive ofthe Rock and Roll Hall of Fame so they could get the Radiohead treatment where they get voted in the second year instead.

There's some rumors based on prior chairman comments that the reason they haven't announced where the induction ceremony is being held is because they want to host it in London if Kate Bush is inducted so she can be coaxed into attending the ceremony and perform.

Guys can we be real for a second again....They went Missy cause she actually can get in on the ballot, same goes for Lauryn Hill.

Goerge Michael will probably get in since he has a diamond album. The last class where nobody had a diamond album was 2013. Likewise, Warren Zevon will probably get in since we need some classic rock. Since the 3 Classic-rock heavy classes, we've had Def Leppard and Stevie Nicks in '19, The Doobies in '20, Todd Rundgren in '21, and Pat Benatar last year. The White Stripes probably will get in, as will Missy. Whoever wins the fan vote is my next guess, followed by Willie Nelson. Posted by Follower on Monday, 02/6/2023 @ 20:08pm |

Cyndi was ahead of her time in the 80s. Her odd, quirky behavior was ridiculed by many, but she has become an icon for many people. Her very song "True Colors", whether intentional or not, has inspired thousands if not millions in their respective movements. She might not be the biggest album seller, but she checks all the boxes for influence for candidacy. For other artists, and most notably, for her fans.

I would say the chances is larger than what most people for Cyndi Lauper is that John Sykes the new chairman has been pushing for MTV acts to get in like Duran Duran and Eurythmics. Lauper was huge for the MTV generation and is one of the last few MTV that needs to get in. I could see Billy Idol also making the nod next year because of that. Posted by jay kay on Tuesday, 02/7/2023 @ 16:47pm |
Plus on top of that, Cyndi is currently in the lead in the fan vote, so if that holds, She will win the fan vote and get in this year and continue the trend of the fan vote winner getting inducted nearly every year (except 2020 with Dave Matthews Band), so yeah, I think that she's getting in this year, as well as she should.

Looks like I was dumb enough to ignore A Tribe Called Quest when I called the nomination (not induction) class shockingly white.

Ok I will continue with my commemorative look at the 1993 class of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The next artist is from the 1950s. There was only 2 decades to choose from at that time. I have never known the 50s very well at all. For me Music in general really starts with the Beatles, The Who, Cream, CCR and the Doors. Ohh I neglected to mention JIMI HENDRIX. Another fav prior to 1993. He was the main artist that got my attention at the 1992 Ceremony. Ok Here is the next artist for 1993. Posted by Ben on Thursday, 02/9/2023 @ 04:31am |

Long story short - It's underlying sexism. Posted by RJR on Thursday, 02/9/2023 @ 09:27am |
I can't speak for everyone getting pissy about Crow's nomination, but there's no sexism on my end when I complain about it. Missy Elliott will get in first ballot as she should, and I'm a big believer that Mariah Carey is a huge snub too. The Hall in general is up-and-down with inducting important female artists (in particular female minority ones in the R&B space; look at how long it took them to induct Donna Summer and Janet Jackson), so I think Crow supporters going the identity politics route is kinda gross. Posted by Jagger on Thursday, 02/9/2023 @ 09:57am |
"but not really super impressive for a pop act)," is how paragraph 3 should read. Posted by Jagger on Thursday, 02/9/2023 @ 09:59am |

My problem with Sheryl's nomination is that it feels like her nomination comes from her being friendly to the Hall and having connections in the music industry than her actual influence and critical acclaim.

Mat, you're falling into the trap of using weak nominees of supporting your argument. I don't support Lauper's nomination, so her having a "steeper drop off" than Crow doesn't matter to me. Even if we just go off Wikipedia, it says that Michael sold around 125 million records worldwide and Crow sold about 50 million, so no, she wasn't bigger than him, whether we're talking the US or globally.

Mat, I think the problem is what you said in the first sentence: you're talking about the ballot, and I'm criticizing the process that led to the ballot, and how Crow's nomination is the personification of it. Posted by Jagger on Thursday, 02/9/2023 @ 13:33pm |

So I decided to try and predict who would most likely be nominated in the next couple of years, and the way I did this is that I went through the most recent incarnations of Rolling Stone's 500 Songs and Albums lists, the 200 Greatest Rap Albums list, and the 200 Greatest Singers lists, then I looked at all the big names that weren't in and the names that aren't eligible ye (not counting the few who were just nominated), put them in a spreadsheet, then counted the times they all showed up in the lists. Here's the artists who had the most appearances ranging from 3 to 6 (the results may surprise you): Posted by Raichu on Saturday, 02/11/2023 @ 14:56pm |
Small Update: So, after looking through the 200 Rap Albums list a bit more, the following artists have now joined some of the lists: Posted by Raichu on Saturday, 02/11/2023 @ 15:23pm |

I'll have a few thoughts later today, Ben. I will say, the Doors have always fascinated me, as a band that met its end much too soon, and has a haunting, enduring legacy, not unlike his 27 club co-members Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin to me. It was a horrific fad going on to die young in 1970. Posted by K-Dawg on Wednesday, 02/15/2023 @ 10:14am |

Richie, I've gotta hand it to you. You asked an excellent question right there. Personally, I prefer music from the '60s, '70s, '80s & '90s, with an occasional splash of the 2000s. Some of the post 2000s music is good, but it doesn't resonate with me as much as the music of yesteryear. I can't relate to some of today's music. Posted by Johnny on Thursday, 02/16/2023 @ 23:00pm |
richie, Posted by Ben on Friday, 02/17/2023 @ 03:47am |
My preference overall would be 90s in terms of all genres, but I listen to stuff all the way from the 1940s to 2023 and will continue to. Posted by K-Dawg on Friday, 02/17/2023 @ 05:09am |

KING FAV 1990's Albums Posted by KING on Friday, 02/17/2023 @ 13:51pm |
I would say the 1980's would be my FAV decade as there were so many big time artists and great songs at 1 time. Billy Idol, Billy Joel, Bruce Springsteen, Bryan Adams, Def Leppard, Duran Duran, Elton John, INXS, Michael Jackson, Madonna, Prince, The Bangles, Tina Turner, Van Halen, U2 etc. Most are in the RRHOF. Also, the 1980's was when MTV showcased many amazing videos that made many new artists. It also was a quieter time before the increase of media and cell phones and Internet. Groups like Duran Duran made videos an art form filming in exotic locals like Sri Lanka. I gravitated to the harder rock and metal acts. Bryan Adams, Def Leppard, U2 were probably my Top 3 and they're still going strong. KING has a good eye and ear for longevity and talent. Great Topic! Posted by KING on Friday, 02/17/2023 @ 14:03pm |
I just want to give a shout out to Def Leppard as they were my 1st FAV band. Started listening to music in 1982 & 1983 and Pyromania is still my FAV ALBUM of all-time. Every song could have been a smash hit. Foolin' Photograph, Rock Of Ages, Too Late For Love etc. I was immediately drawn to their guitar work and music. I also like the Union Jack they used to have. They appear to be good people. Def Leppard was at the top of their game when Rick Allen the drummer had his accident and lost his arm. I always admired Def Leppard that they kept Rick Allen in the band. There must have been pressure to add another drummer and continue the great hard rock metal sound. They adapted their sound and Rick Allen had to learn the special drum kit they had designed. He was their friend and their mate. Hysteria was a brilliant creation and sold millions of albums. Animal might be my FAV song and the amazing song Hysteria. Losing great guitarist Steve Clark was another blow to the band. Most bands would have broken underneath the weight of these tragic circumstances. Def Leppard just gained strength and continued to forge ahead. I was very excited to see Def Leppard inducted into the RRHOF. They were plenty deserving. Posted by KING on Friday, 02/17/2023 @ 14:21pm |
And as for me Posted by Ben on Friday, 02/17/2023 @ 17:15pm |
I will chat about 2 Favorite bands of all time. My 1st FAV band was the Beatles. Yep John, Paul, George and Ringo. The first Beatles album I bought was Meet the Beatles. With alll those early songs. It has I Wanna Hold Your Hand, I Saw her standing There, This Boy, etc. Soon after I bought 1962-1966. Eight Days a Week, Ticket to Ride, Yesterday, Help. You've Got to Hide Your Love Away, We Can Work it Out. Day Tripper, etc. But my favorite Beatles album ever is Revolver. Revolver is great. Posted by Ben on Saturday, 02/18/2023 @ 03:15am |
My Actual favorite band is the Who. Certainly a key British Rock band. Their great music goes back to the 1960s. The Who developed from an earlier group, the Detours, and established themselves as part of the pop art and mod movements, featuring revolutionary art by destroying guitars and drums on stage. Their first single as the Who, "I Can't Explain" (1965), reached the UK top ten, and was followed by a string of hit singles including "My Generation" (1965), "Substitute" (1966) and "Happy Jack" (1966). In 1967, they performed at the Monterey Pop Festival and released "I Can See for Miles", one of their few top 10 hits It could be the only Top 10 hit. The group's 1969 concept album Tommy included the single "Pinball Wizard" and was a critical and commercial success.. Tommy needs to be known as a whole album entity.

I just want to add I saw the Who 4 times. Not bad for somebody who has been short on money at times in the past. I should have seen the Who at the 1982 tour but Tickets were scalped by a friend to someone else. Held a grudge on friend. I saw the Who at Meadowlands NEW Jersey 1989. Also Twice in the 1990s and in 2000 exactly at Jones Beach NY. Stopped seeing the Who after John E died. BUT certainly my favorite band. I own all the Who material up to early 2000s. Thats about 40 years of the Who music Posted by Ben on Sunday, 02/19/2023 @ 05:31am |

So..the Doors. I will admit, I don't know a whole lot about them during their active days. Jim Morrison was an early 2 Live Crew, Tupac, a rebel fighting a cause against censorship decades before you would dream about hearing lyrics that are taken for granted today. Dropping an F bomb at a concert got you hauled off to the "pokey" quicker than you could blink. In the era of Make Love Not War, he wanted a form of both, but nonviolently. The songs by the Doors, with Morrison, Ray Manzanarek, Robbie Krieger and John Densmore are almost instantly recognizable. You have the riffs, the eerie keyboards, the unmistakable percussion. Even before you get to Morrison's haunting vocals, you know the Doors songs. Light My Fire is to me, the sound of the 60s that makes you think of times gone by. Lyrics that are very explosive, yet it seems people don't listen to them. So many notable songs...Break on Through, LA Woman, The End, Riders on the Storm, People Are Strange, Alabama Getaway (Whiskey Bar), Crystal Ship, Soul Kitchen...and that just scratches the surface of their all too brief foray into psychedelic antiestablishment rock. Once Jim Morrison died of his overdose, something was lost. 1970 signaled the end of the Woodstock/Flower Power times. The trinity of Jimi, Janis and Jim took us into the heavier times of the 70s and the beginning of recession, inflation, and the advent of guitar rock, heavy metal's infancy, soul/funk, disco, and the very beginnings of the roots of rap. In the next decade, this last would become the voice of rebellion as a new generation struggled to find its voice, but Jim Morrison, like his peers, started the ball rolling that the days of rock and roll only being symbollic of change transformed into real change.The Lizard King is so influential, that despiet his short career, there is no one who doubts his band's place in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

I'd argue the voting base has already confirmed the worst about them, how the whole hall is seen as a joke in music circles and the whole thing needs restructuring. Posted by Guest on Saturday, 02/25/2023 @ 00:56am |
I call it the "Nomination Curse." The more times you're nominated, the chance you have at getting inducted via the voting body is lower and lower each time. The last time someone with 4+ noms got inducted was The Zombies in 2019. The last time someone with 5+ nominations got inducted was Donna Summer in 2013. The last time someone with 8+ nominations got inducted was The Stooges in 2010. Posted by Garrick on Saturday, 02/25/2023 @ 03:54am |

Hearing it's in New York I think Cyndi Lauper is getting the pop spot over George Michael. I thought she was anyway since she barely squeezes into pop rock and seems to have more friends and supporters at the Hall who have wanted her in. It just matches up as their one "local" inductee since it's pretty tough this year for ATCQ to make it. Posted by Guest on Saturday, 02/25/2023 @ 19:04pm |
I think that people are way overestimating Kate Bush's chances of induction as a Performer this year, I just think that this is a tough ballot for her once again this year, despite her huge resurgence this past year with Running Up That Hill being featured on Stranger Things and quickly becoming a cultural phenomenon, plus the fact that she has failed three times now and this is her fourth nomination (third in the last three years) is a sign of she may have voter fatigue working against her despite her huge resurgence this past year, I think that her best chance of getting in this year is via Musical Excellence in the same way that LL Cool J and Judas Priest got in in recent years, I do think that she'll get in this year because of the resurgence that she has had this past year, but I see her getting the LL Cool J/Judas Priest treatment here this year (In other words, She'll get in as Musical Excellence just like LL Cool J and Judas Priest did in recent years, rather than as a Performer), because of her failed prior nominations simply means she's simply not resonating enough with voters to get voted in as a Performer, so I see her getting the LL Cool J/Judas Priest treatment here this year (In other words, She'll get in via Musical Excellence just like LL Cool J and Judas Priest did in recent years, rather than as a Performer).

Surprised by the pushes here recently for Wolfman Jack and Casey Kasem. They're important figures but that media lane is hella crowded (Don Cornelius, Ed Sullivan, Robert Christgau, Annie Nightingale, Robert Pittman, Marcel Bezencon) and no outright media figure has gone in since Jann Wenner so it's gonna be a big figure and I'm kinda doubtful they go with Shaggy.

Richie - the number of actual inductees has little to do with the strength of the ballot, but rather is a function of how close the vote totals are, and potentially also an opportunity to avoid the bad optics of a non-diverse inductee class. They aren't going to reach 7 deep for a class as white as your predictions, unless the vote results are legitimately extremely close for the sixth and seventh choices there. The only non-white inductees on your list would be a couple members of Soundgarden. Posted by Shrek on Sunday, 02/26/2023 @ 19:07pm |

Kinda curious what people think of the fact that despite Kate Bush having a top 3 hit last year she is trailing Joy Division and New Order in the fan vote by quite a bit (over 12k votes) for the 7th spot. Both are doing ok in the vote but Joy Division and New Order are kind of running away with that 80s alternative fan vote with relative ease and it's kind of shocking i feel like. Posted by Mat R on Wednesday, 03/1/2023 @ 16:31pm |
Still, isn't this Kate's strongest showing on the fan ballot since she's been nominated? Besides, sometimes the fan ballot isn't the best metric to go by on how the actual votes will go. For example, heavy metal always does great on the fan ballot (Judas Priest & Iron Maiden) but they always struggle with the voters. On the flip side, rap and hip-hop never does the best poorly in the fan ballot (except Eminem) but does well with the voters (Jay-Z came dead last in the fan vote but was inducted on his first try). Posted by Garrick on Wednesday, 03/1/2023 @ 18:09pm |
I think that out of the top five acts in the fan vote this year (George Michael, Cyndi Lauper, Warren Zevon, Iron Maiden and Soundgarden), I think that four of the top five acts in the fan vote (George Michael, Cyndi Lauper, Warren Zevon and Soundgarden) will get in this year, while Iron Maiden will be the one that misses out on induction once again this year. Posted by richie on Wednesday, 03/1/2023 @ 18:25pm |

Richie - while I happen to agree with you that Cyndi Lauper has a better shot at being voted in as a performer than Kate Bush does; I think that your argument about the location of the induction ceremony is a very weak argument. I'd challenge you to go out and find *any* evidence ever of a Hall Of Fame voter that has taken in to account the location of the ceremony at all. I really don't think you could find even one that sat there with their ballot and asked themselves, "wait a minute, where is the ceremony this year? I should make sure there is a home town favorite on my ballot!" I don't think even the producers of the ceremony particularly care about that; because they're making a TV show, so they just are hoping for a few big names in general that will give them good TV ratings.

The person can go in a corner and sulk. Besides I will NOT be reviewing the Beatles, the Who, Cream, Grateful Dead, etc. We have progressed well beyond Billy Joel, Bruce S, Steely Dan and Queen etc as well.

Richie I think the opposite I think underestimating her chances of being voted in. I believe that the resurgence would be enough to sway the voters to vote for her. The hard rock and metal acts will probably cancel each other out. The voters probably would think it's too soon for the White Stripes. Sheryl Crow isn't that exciting of a candidate so I don't see many people voting for her. Posted by Greg F on Thursday, 03/2/2023 @ 05:42am |

Also just back to Sheryl for a moment. No one really talks about her influence on music so I figured I'd share this Posted by Mat R on Thursday, 03/2/2023 @ 09:16am |
Once Willie Nelson gets inducted, where does the Rock Hall go with country? Will they try to induct Merle Haggard, Waylon Jennings, Glen Campbell, Patsy Cline, Emmylou Harris, etc.? One idea I've had is for the nom com to circle back and nominate Gram Parsons again. Parsons was important in the development of country rock and he's been nominated three times in the past (2002, 2004, 2005). Maybe he could be inducted if he were nominated today. I can also see him taking the Todd Rundgren, Warren Zevon slot. I can also see Keith Richards inducting him. Posted by Garrick on Thursday, 03/2/2023 @ 11:48am |
Garrick - Gram Parsons came up during my discussion with Alan Light; he is an advocate for Parsons going in but seemed to think that Grams' time as a performer nominee had passed unless something new happens to bring his name forward into popular awareness again. A new documentary or a resurgence in one of his old songs or something like that. Barring that, his best shot is perhaps as an "early influence" on Alt-country Posted by Shrek on Thursday, 03/2/2023 @ 12:30pm |
In my next episode, during the second half of my interview with Alan Light, he brings up a name he is advocating for induction this year, pushing it with the head of the Early Influence committee. Posted by Shrek on Thursday, 03/2/2023 @ 12:35pm |

I think Kate is going to get inducted this year. Not in the performers category, but in the musical excellence category. Yes, Kate was never commercially successful in America prior to the resurgence of Running Up That Hill, but Kate and her albums have always been critically acclaimed and highly respected by music critics and musicians alike. She's been name-dropped by countless artists as an influence, her albums constantly shows up on "greatest albums" list on music publications like Pitchfork and Rolling Stone (she was recently placed at no. 60 on their 200 greatest singers list), and pretty much 45% of today's pop music (the likes of Billie Eilish, Lana Del Rey, Lorde, St. Vincent, etc). can be traced back to Kate's music.

The "scoop" of the episode is that Alan has been pushing the members of the Early Influence committee to induct DJ Kool Herc, the originator of Hip Hop, since this year marks the 50th anniversary of the party that he first introduced his DJ breakbeat techniques.

So once Missy Elliott gets inducted this year (because let's face it, she's one of this years locks) where does the Rock Hall go with rap & hip-hop? The last few years have been dominated with iconic FYE rappers being inducted like 2Pac, Notorious B.I.G., Jay-Z, and Eminem. Other acts have either been inducted via multiple ballots (NWA) or via a side category (LL Cool J). Posted by Garrick on Monday, 03/6/2023 @ 13:11pm |

MatR - While BTO and Guess Who weren't on my list of snubs to ask about; there were a number of others I did ask about but that I cut from the final edit because the discussions on them didn't lead to any interesting feedback from Alan. I also certainly could have offered what I think are valid arguments for the "what changed" influence of Boston (major blockbuster album recorded in a home rather than a professional studio); or REO (ushered in the era of 70s Rock bands embracing soft rock). Not sure I could come up with one for Foreigner though, even though they're probably my favorite of the "corporate rock" bands. But truthfully we were running considerably over my agreed on time with Alan by then. And I wasn't really looking to argue with him, just push him for clarity on the view in the room on those types of bands. Posted by Shrek on Monday, 03/6/2023 @ 17:29pm |
Shrek figured that was the case. Also not to say argue but see how he'd respond to something simple like bto and Canada or Boston and the riffs Posted by Mat r on Monday, 03/6/2023 @ 20:48pm |

So joy division and new order are coming across as the real public campaigners this year. They all seem incredibly excited by the hall and Peter hook has suggested he would reunite with new order to perform (something the hall loves). They're also making a massive deal of the 40th anniversary of Blue Monday and highlighting how important that song is. Posted by Mat r on Tuesday, 03/7/2023 @ 10:50am |

Again Richie I disagree for all the reasons Jordan, Mat and I have stated. Popularity in the U.S. while it might help but isn't necessary everything to the voters. It's not like totally obscure like you seem to impling and less popular acts in the U.S. have and get in. Posted by Greg F on Tuesday, 03/7/2023 @ 15:35pm |
Roxy Music and T.Rex are not popular in America, like JD/NO. However, they are inducted in their first ballot. Posted by ABC on Tuesday, 03/7/2023 @ 15:41pm |

Also Richie, you stated your predictions that acts like George Michael, Cyndi Lauper, Sheryl Crow, The White Stripes, Warren Zevon, Soundgarden & Willie Nelson being inducted as performers. Well only three or four of them (Zevon, WS, Nelson & Soundgarden) have a possible chance to earn the honor as of this year because let's face it some of these nominees (Michael, Lauper & Crow) only have their first tries & aren't as historically & culturally important like JD/NO. Not to mention they waited less longer than those dual bands. Posted by Jordan Einstein on Tuesday, 03/7/2023 @ 15:56pm |

I've said it before, and Richie has disagreed with me multiple times, Joy Division/New Order are far more popular in America than they are given credit for. They, along with Depeche Mode and the Cure, really set the stage for early alternative rock. I seriously doubt their clout will be ignored by the voters, who, remember, are voting for their peers. It makes all the sense in the world they will follow Duran Duran and the Eurythmics into the RRHOF. Posted by K-Dawg on Wednesday, 03/8/2023 @ 03:18am |

How big of a lock are The White Stripes? They have the critical acclaim, memorable songs (Seven Nation Army), and respect in the industry (Jack White especially). Plus, there's the potential for a reunion between Jack & Meg White at the ceremony. Plus, I can see old white boomers voting for them considering they kept garage rock alive in the 2000s.

What are Sheryl Crow's chances this year? I'm not going to act like I'm the biggest fan of her music (I find all of the other female nominees to be far more musically interesting than her), but she has the industry connections and we all know she'll show up to the ceremony.

Richie, look past your narrow view of music popularity. Just because they didn't sustain into the 90s and just because you don't hear their songs on the oldies station doesn't mean JD/NO is any less relevant and belonging ASAP to the RRHOF and they will get in easily this year, I'm gonna stick to.

I'm pretty confident in a devo AME. They just announced a farewell tour, and their absence from this years ballot, after 2 consecutive years and 1 prior nom, as well as Dave grohls heavy pushing. It all seems to be a perfect setup for an AME back door. Obviously they'd want a Dave Grohl induction speech, although a Byrne or weird al would make much more sense Posted by Will m on Wednesday, 03/8/2023 @ 19:32pm |

Paramore probably aren't first ballot in fact I don't think any of the emo bands are first ballot acts largely because rage still isn't in after 4 nominations (on their 4th now) and nine inch nails and Depeche mode took 3 nominations each plus Beck missed on his first try. I can't picture genres as dismissed and divisive as emo, pop punk, nu metal, and 99% of indie walking into the hall within a decade of eligibility unless a massive overhaul of the voting body happens Posted by Mat r on Wednesday, 03/8/2023 @ 19:38pm |

I'm biased as I looooovvveeee Paramore, so I think they should be FYI. That said, I don't see it (unless they can come out with another album that goes way beyond Riot!). So many great bands/acts that haven't made it yet. I feel they will get in some day, but Hayley may be in her 70s when that happens. Posted by Paul in KY on Thursday, 03/9/2023 @ 05:27am |

To be honest, I would have much preferred a more interesting artist to be nominated like PJ Harvey, Fiona Apple, or even Alanis Morissette (I know she has problems with the Hall) over Sheryl. Sheryl is just so dull by comparison to not only those three names I mentioned but all the other women nominated this year as well. If I had a ballot, she would be the last person I would vote for.

I feel like again people are misreading Sheryl Crow and ignoring what's afoot right now in music. Like beyond just being a friend Sheryl right now is kind of one of the real mother's of modern rock like boygenius (aka 3 of the most exciting talents in rock today), who were just in the cover of rolling stone, literally just dropped a song heavily and openly influenced by Sheryl who all 3 members have professed a deep love of.

It's so funny that you mention early influence because I was watching a video on Youtube from a channel called Track X Track. It's a video where he reacts the nominees and predicts the inductees. At the end of the video, he made the bold prediction that Kate Bush, Iron Maiden, Willie Nelson, Rage Against the Machine, The Spinners, and A Tribe Called Quest as inductees and said that it's possible for Willie Nelson to be inducted into the early influence category and Iron Maiden in musical excellence.

There will be in lack of new solid new artists who make debut after 2000. I think no 00's artists are sure FYN. Therefore, I think the rock hall will mainly focus on induct massive artists in 80s and 90s from 2025 to 2040. Posted by Power on Thursday, 03/9/2023 @ 18:19pm |

Meat Loaf falls a bit short for me. If he were on this year's ballot I don't think I'd even consider throwing him a vote, as I think nearly everyone on the ballot is more deserving than he is.

There isn't a ton I can really put out on Biggie Smalls, AKA the Notorious BIG. Some have experience with rock and grew up around the area of many famous bands. I know, being from Oregon, I grew up with Art Alexakis and Everclear as the local celebrity band, but my tastes in rock extend far beyond their music.My interest in my other major genre, hip hop/R and B, was very much influenced by being a leftcoaster. To me, west side vs east side isn't any affiliation or anything sinister; it's the environment, the atmosphere, and the experiences you had, both vicariously and through your own eyes. I grew up with West Coast rap, and the voices of Dr. Dre, Ice Cube and others didn't just influence oppressed individuals and give a voice to a scorned minority; like grunge and Nirvana, NWA and its contemporaries gave a new and different style to people who didn't want divisions to stay a part of the landscape, and said "so what" to the status quo that you were a rock fan, and you stayed in your lane.

Just a bit more on T. Rex. They were a key British rock band of the 1970s. Its tragic that MArc Bolan was killed in 1977. He would have been alive to see his influence. I like different kinds of British Rock. This is a different kind of Classic rock band. Posted by Ben on Saturday, 03/11/2023 @ 04:48am |
There really isn't much else to talk about when it comes to predictions. Most of us have already shared our opinions. The conversations are likely going to get repetitive.

He was for the prior nomination, but very pleasantly surprised they are still giving Hiro Yamamoto an induction with Soundgarden if they make it in. The hall has been infamously bad with snubbing members of late 80s/early 90s bands who played on albums or even helped founded groups while leaving right before they got massive - Chad Channing with Nirvana, John Kiffmeyer with Green Day, and a contender for biggest individual snub for a band that got in with Dave Abbruzzese with Pearl Jam who was there for the biggest years of their career. With no indication they'll ever fix this and not be seen as jokes it's good they are getting it right here. Posted by Guest on Saturday, 03/11/2023 @ 11:19am |

Ok, so I got a request from Ben to cover Depeche Mode. From a personal standpoint, the induction of Depeche Mode was one of those moments when I take on a "finally" approach. I was ecstatic when acts like NWA and Whitney Houston got what I felt were long overdue inductions, but Depeche Mode's irked me a little as I thought they should've been FYI that they were nommed. Not necessarily FYE, but they are so iconic and one of the biggest names in New Wave. You think of two bands at the very top of the new sound born in the early 80s, and they are the Cure and Depeche Mode. "People Are People", "Strangelove", "Policy of Truth", "Everything Counts", "It's No Good", "Enjoy the Silence"...these are a few of the songs that permeate the conscious of this underground movement in the 80s that defined the sound of the decade. Rock music, where it had meshed the sounds together and drawn scorn from traditional rockist fans for the introduction of keyboards and sappier love songs that paved the way for power ballads,(In other words, Styx lol) fully branched out from each other. Hair/butt rock drew some of those wanting to straight out rock and party; new wave took the keyboards and made a different kind of music that defined the 80s sound.I get a bit hyperbolic here, but let's not forget the sound of new wave birthed alternative rock, and technology took over. I know I haven't said a ton about the band itself, but they were the pioneers of the genre. Posted by K-Dawg on Saturday, 03/11/2023 @ 23:49pm |

I think Pavement and Big Star have chance to be inducted as they all have 3 top 500 greatest albums by the Rolling Stone. They may nominated after 2030. Like Zevon, a long overdue nomination may come in the end. Posted by Power on Sunday, 03/12/2023 @ 12:22pm |

Ok, I will give time for people here to catch up. Yeah so Depeche Mode is a weak one for me. I can relate slightly better to Biggie in fact. I can understand that rebellion. Not a rap fan it dont genrally do a thing for me. But I don't mind pockets of Rap. Notorious BIG came to my attention in the last 5 years due to the fine Blacks I work with. In fact my co workers who are into urban forms of music are not into any New rap. Just the old Old school Rap like Biggie. Posted by Ben on Monday, 03/13/2023 @ 02:44am |

So if Iron Maiden were inducted, what would their induction look like? I see a Radiohead-type induction where there's a video package, induction speech, and then some members of the band come up and say a few words. I don't see a performance happening considering Bruce Dickinson has been vocal about his distain for the Rock Hall in the past. They don't seem to want induction as much as Judas Priest did.

Some added things on Randy Rhoads. One of the best Heavy Metal guitarists. Not into alll genres but definitely love some Heavy Metal, NOT an expert of Heavy Metal but dig some 1980s Metal. I heard some Metal shops during the 1980s. I still listen to Heavy Metal about every 2 months. NO NU Metal but love those early Scorps tunes and Twisted Sister. I hoped for Ozzy as a Performer in the Hall but at least Randy gave representation to Heavy Metal. Posted by Ben on Wednesday, 03/15/2023 @ 08:01am |

Courtney Love went on a tweeting spree yesterday on Twitter, criticizing the Rock Hall for it's overall small number of women inductees, how it would take many years for women to get inducted than men, and criticizing the anonymous rock hall voter in that Vulture interview when the voter said that they don't know if they would vote for her music simply because they don't know her music that well.

But Richie the act with the biggest song on the ballot goes in. That's been the pattern for a while now and the White Stripes have that this year like Journey did in 2017. And they're new! Like Foo Fighters or Jay-Z or Eminem! And they are insides like Jay-Z or Foo Fighter. Are you suggesting that the hall will break its long standing tradition for Girls Just Want to Have fun and look totally out of touch?

No one picked the stripes in the preliminary nominations because no one thought the stripes were eligible, including frl itself. There is a reason they were selected this year. I predict they'll be the rocking choice. As for not caring about an induction, the sex pistols, Steve miller and Todd Rundgren all shared that sentiment and got in. By inducing the stripes, you get jack white and a female musician in Meg white. Slam dunk Posted by K-Dawg on Saturday, 03/18/2023 @ 02:22am |

He had to have gotten votes from Old artists inducted not just Hip Hop.t hip hop artists. I mean NOT Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Pete Townsend and the guys in Fleetwood Mac. But others like Steve Tyler, REM members, Anthony Kiedis of Red Hot C P, Beastie Boys, Janet Jackson among others.

I honestly think that they should just split up the Performers category to two categories (1) Veteran and (2) Modern just like the Country Music Hall of Fame does with 6 nominees and 3 inductees in each category for a total of 12 nominees and 6 inductees each year. On a side note, Are any of you guys Country Music Hall of Fame watchers in addition to the Rock Hall?. Do any of you guys follow the Country Music Hall of Fame in addition to the Rock Hall?.

At some point, the voters have to take some of the blame. The RRHOF cannot both nominate and induct the music artists. Many do not display their signed ballot votes on social media. Therefore, it is not possible to fixate blame on 1 particular person. It has ballooned to over 1,200+ voters. A younger voter might vote for some of the more recent late 1990's starting artists. Maybe, an older voter who became of music age during the Arena and Classic Rock...They might vote for those type bands. The Committee has started to remedy these situations with the Sub Committees. They have fixed some of the more aggregious voting snubs. Finally honoring Judas Priest, Kraftwerk, LL Cool J, into the RRHOF. The Hall really can't win because they have nominated deserving artists like Chaka Khan, Kate Bush, Rage Against The Machine, The Spinners, etc several times. I would say Chaka Khan will receive a Special Award next. It appears her time as she's 70 in March. I would say both female and male artists have had to wait a long time. Look how many years Chicago, Deep Purple, ELO, KISS, RUSH, YES, have had to wait. I think Peter, Paul & Mary should be inducted. Everyone here that posts on FRL has favorites they want to see inducted. I think it was advantageous and intelligent for the RRHOF to have a Hall Of Fame broader than the more narrow rock definition. We will see more country, pop and rap hip hop artists inducted. That should also be helpful for African-American music artists and women music artists. KING Posted by KING on Saturday, 03/18/2023 @ 16:50pm |
The fan vote means nothing in the grand scheme of things. Chris Cornell is a beloved icon in music, but there's just as many others that have passed and haven't yet gotten recognition. If the Stripes are inducted, it's a chance, no matter what they say right now, to reunite Jack and Meg. And as I said, Jack White is far hotter in music circles today than many others. Plus, it gives a rocker band with another female to add for metrics. I maintain, like with JD/NO, that the Stripes are likely going in Posted by K-Dawg on Saturday, 03/18/2023 @ 16:50pm |

Ok, time for some S Dot Carter, also known as Jay-Z. I first became aware of this multitalented individual around 1998. He had some catchy and controversial songs like "Hard Knocks Life", "N* What", and "Can I Get A". For the teenager burgeoning into adulthood that I had reached, he was something cool that resonated stuff that was previously frowned upon and still somewhat is. It's hard in ways to differentiate his mission statement in his early rap songs from Tupac, excepting that he took the path that Pac should have, were justice to prevail and he lived past 1994.

That was coool man. As an Old rocker I could never do Jay-Z justice like that.I was 33 around the time Jay-Z came out in 1998 you say. I was an adult listening to Folk and Jazz. I did hear some alternative during the 90s. Ok, Its time for the Foo Fighters, They were the remnant of Nirvana that returned around 1995 Posted by Ben on Sunday, 03/19/2023 @ 06:32am |

I'll keep the Foos straight and to the point. In the mid-90s, we were introduced to a "second wave" of new grunge bands. We considered groups like the Offspring, Green Day (their punk roots notwithstanding), Collective Soul, the Goo Goo Dolls and the Foos as the second wave. It was still pretty traditional guitar rock, but it stepped away from the hair and leather phenomenon. My question is, is there another band that I mentioned that even gets consideration? Collective Soul had 2 good albums, and the Offspring are great, but I don't see either of them getting even a nom. And yes, we know Green Day is in, but you could argue they went in as a big name the year they came out to maximize publicity. Posted by K-Dawg on Monday, 03/20/2023 @ 08:54am |

I'd love to delve in this in greater detail, honestly. However, I'm not sure I can completely separate my personal bias from the music I like during this time period, I'm afraid, as well as other times, because this is probably when I was at my most musically biased. However, I will ask you though Mat, as its been discussed in the past, how do yo think nu metal will fare in the next few years?

Honestly, which voting blocks do you think would be likely to vote for any of those Nu Metal bands if they won't even vote for Rage, or for Judas Priest? Critics certainly aren't going to vote for them. Classic Rock acts aren't going to, souk and pop acts aren't going to. I don't think the MTV generation bands are going to vote for Nu Metal. Even among the members of a lot of the few harder edge bands that are in, I'm not sure that Nu Metal bands like those really would find all that many votes; certainly not enough to be in the top 5 or 6 on a ballot.

I don't get why people here have this fixation on Emmylou Harris being a country heavyweight for the rock hall. The hall seems interested in mainstream icons from the genre and Emmylou, despite success, is a pretty niche figure. Posted by Mat r on Monday, 03/20/2023 @ 16:44pm |
I think Emmylou Harris and Loretta Lynn are solid choices because she will be both supported by country community and women community. They both received Grammy lifetime achievement award which shows they are accepted by mainstream community. Posted by power on Monday, 03/20/2023 @ 16:53pm |

Mat R, you may be right. Nevertheless, Carly Simon is also not an icon, frl site even did not rank her in the ranking and she is nominated and inducted. Hence, I think some women who are not iconic will also be nominated and inducted in the future. Posted by Power on Monday, 03/20/2023 @ 18:20pm |

I think Bjork, PJ Harvey, Alice in Chains, the Smashing Pumpkins, Pixies, Oasis, Bad Brians (probably in me, supported by Grohl), Living Colours (ME, supported by Morello), Fishbones (ME, supported by Morello and advocated by some voters already), De La Soul, Nas, will be inducted before 2040.

Richie, it is hard to say. New people will in the nomination committee, and they may support different kinds of artists. For example, if three or five persons who support for british music come in the committee, and Blur, The Verve, Pulp, Suede, the Stone Roses, the Jam, Buzzcocks and even maybe Primal Scream and XTC will be nominated without doubt, but those bands are hardly to recieve nomination with current nomination committee numbers. I think only The Smiths and Oasis may have chance to be inducted. Most british bands will be snubbed. I just make prediction based on the possible logic of current nomination committee. Posted by Power on Wednesday, 03/22/2023 @ 00:05am |
Certain people in the committee seem to put JD/NO ahead of the B-52's despite the rumors the B-52's will be nonimated in 2023, once JD/NO is in and it is the turn of B-52's. Posted by Power on Wednesday, 03/22/2023 @ 00:13am |

Richie, I would like to modify a little by INXS information. Let me rethink about it. Posted by Power on Wednesday, 03/22/2023 @ 22:35pm |
Also, what is going to happen to Rage Against the Machine? They keep getting nominated over and over to no success which is shocking considering Tom Morello is on the nominating committee so you would think he would have the connections to pull this induction off. We know the voters are biased towards newly nominated artists and the last time someone with 4+ nominations was inducted in the performer category was The Zombies in 2019.

There's also Nickelback back but I feel like most of us can agree that'll happen in 10 to 15 years probably. They were kind of undeniably the biggest band on the planet from 2001 to 2008 and despite being a joke for years time has been pretty kind to them as loads of acts have taken influence from them and people have begun to re assess them Posted by Mat r on Thursday, 03/23/2023 @ 20:17pm |

You guys think this is the year we see a music video director get inducted? The last 4 classes have been uber heavy on artists known for important and groundbreaking music videos and artists who were key to MTV. This year is almost guaranteed to be the same. Would make sense to finally induct one as many have become high profile and celebrated figures especially in a year where most of the frontrunners (cept for Willie, Maiden, and Warren) have super duper iconic videos.

I enjoy learning about music history,and have always appreciated music from genres all across the board. I am not a musician, although I own a guitar and drums I play both of them like garbage lol.

Ok I'll continue. the next act is a key act of the 80s. A bit too weird for me. I prefer the Cars and Duran D. Duran D is the other New wave act inducted for 2022. K-Dawg. Somehow you know I'm weak with Eurythmics. Maybe because I'm Not a huge New wave. I It was to support women that they were inducted cause of Annie Lennox. She is kinda boring and strange to me.

Same with The Smiths, same with the Pixies, same with Smashing Pumpkins, same with The Replacements. Heck even if they threw in a curveball and nominated PJ Harvey I would be all in on it.

I don't want to be mean Richie but you have quite possibly the lamest and most safe ballot I've seen yet. Sheryl Crow? She has got to be the most boring artist on the ballot. She brings absolutely nothing unique to the Rock Hall other than them using her as an excuse to say they're inducting more women and because she'll be a definite appearance at the ceremony. There's a reason why nobody on the ballot tracker has voted for her yet. And come on Richie. Willie Nelson? George Michael? They don't need your vote. They're clear locks at this point. I would argue Soundgarden is the only artist on your ballot that would need your vote as I consider them a bubble artist. Posted by Garrick on Monday, 03/27/2023 @ 12:58pm |
Garrick, Posted by richie on Monday, 03/27/2023 @ 13:14pm |
Garrick, Richie is entitled to choose whoever he wants and for whatever reason he feels is correct. Your statement is hypocritical as you are picking artists that you feel would benefit from your vote. In actuality, you should be voting for the 5 you feel deserve it the most and not be so strategic. No artist on this ballot is guaranteed for induction and it's faulty to think such a thing. Isn't this the logic that caused Radiohead to miss out on a first-year induction? Posted by Rhiannon J on Monday, 03/27/2023 @ 13:29pm |

Richie, I have no idea now. I think if there are two awarded in Ahmet Ertegun award, then there will be two awarded in musical excellence and early influence. If there are zero awarded in Ahmet Ertegun award, there will be three awarded in musical excellence and early influence. You can see it in 2021 and 2022. Hence, it will make it more complex to predict future hall of famers. I would like to know more about business men in music industry and make prediction then.

Richie, if not 2017, Depeche Mode is shown in rock hall before 2020 and before their induction.

Carly Simon is an artist who was overlooked by many during this last nomination cycle, but it wasn't hard to see why she was inducted. Her song "You're So Vain" is literally one of the most popular and enduring of the last 5 decades. The RRHOF has been on a crusade to get all these seminal female singer-songwriters in, and after Joan Baez, Joni Mitchell and Carole King had gone in, there was little doubt they were angling to complete this exclusive pantheon. It doesn't complete any 70s genre left unexplored, but it does put a talented soul on the same level with her peers. Posted by K-Dawg on Wednesday, 03/29/2023 @ 06:04am |

Anybody else love how much Courtney Love has been blasting the Rock Hall for the past few weeks? But I guess the chance of Hole being nominated went to 0%. Posted by Xwing1212 on Wednesday, 03/29/2023 @ 14:47pm |
Also is the Rock Hall moving away from inducting classic rock acts? Sure we get artists like Todd Rundgren and Warren Zevon nominated to scratch that itch, but it seems like the Rock Hall is moving away from classic rock and moving forward by nominating 80s MTV artists.

Every core member of Iron Maiden is still alive and still tours. They could very easily perform at the ceremony and many people would consider them the headliners if they did.

Stevie Nicks' induction was a pointless lip service that took away a spot from a more deserving artist. Maybe Pat Benatar gets that slot instead a couple years earlier, and Mariah Carey or Mary J. Blige slides in at that spot. If the RRHOF wants another rocker chick, maybe it goes to Tori Amos or Fiona Apple. Posted by K-Dawg on Thursday, 03/30/2023 @ 01:48am |

I think there's going to be a lot of vote splitting with the 14 nominees. I can see the scenario of vote splitting between Joy Division/New Order, Kate Bush, and The White Stripes because they're the only prominent alternative music acts on the ballot. I don't count Soundgarden as alternative because more mainstream than alternative, even Grunge was pegged as alternative. But I digress. Posted by Elle Dee on Saturday, 04/1/2023 @ 17:42pm |

Mat r, Alright since I don't know Hip hop well I'll take your for it. BUT it may be in 2 or 3 years. Kraftwerk opened up the Early Influence to Early 70s. It may take a couple extra years to extend to the 80s. This year I stick with BIg Mama Thornton and the Spinners. Hey what happened to your Tony Bennett pick you mentioned a few months ago. And some other 1950s picks. I think some of those are more likely first. Posted by Ben on Sunday, 04/2/2023 @ 18:25pm |
Although I am a super fan of Yellow Magic Orchestra, I do not see ymo being inducted. If ymo is an American band, the chance will be 100 times higher. Kraftwerk is more influential and famous than YMO and finds a hard time to be inducted. I doubt YMO will ever be considered. Posted by Richie on Sunday, 04/2/2023 @ 18:33pm |

Of the rock crowd I'm thinking Zevon's only real challenge is Sheryl and I honestly don't think people will have issue voting for both. White stripes are the other but I think a lot of Zevon's voters will be voting for sentimental reasons. Posted by Mat r on Sunday, 04/2/2023 @ 23:13pm |

Plebeian, to answer your query: Posted by K-Dawg on Monday, 04/3/2023 @ 04:42am |
This year, or one in the near future, may be the one where heavy metal comes into its own in the Hall of Fame voting. In the last three years we had three "hard" act groups inducted--Nine Inch Nails (2020), Foo Fighters (2021) and Judas Priest (2022 ME). Excluding Dave Holland and Taylor Hawkins, that's eighteen ballots held by people who perhaps listened to heavy metal when they were growing up. I assume that the newer inductees are the ones most likely to actually cast a ballot; if that turns out to be true, it may give the metal acts nominated now--like Iron Maiden--and in the future an edge. Posted by Joe S. on Monday, 04/3/2023 @ 07:03am |

This entry will seem similar to Enigmaticus. A lot of us remember him. He has totallly disappeared it seems like something Bad may have happened here. I am pale in comparison to him. I like a bunch of Prog rock. I seem to be one of the most similar to him BUT there is some Prog that is Kinda terrible tooo. He would NEVER say that. I like all kinds of Rock for sure. Unlike Enig. I still think JETHRO Tull will be nominated as a Performer for the Voting body. They would do better than any of the Heavy rock bands. But after J Tull, I think Emerson, Lake and Palmer, King Crimson, Supertramp and possibly Kansas willl go as Musical Excellence and Early Influence. King Crimson will be Early I. I am much more into King Crimson than Kraftwerk. And just as much influence. Posted by Ben on Wednesday, 04/5/2023 @ 06:30am |
I don't know about EI for King Crimson. I think what may happen is that Robert Fripp would get ME to cover King Crimson and his work outside of King Crimson. Posted by Greg F on Wednesday, 04/5/2023 @ 07:25am |

Performer was meant for Jethro Tull and ELP. As for Supertramp and Kansas they might get a couple tries on a ballot at some point before getting considered for ME. Posted by Greg F on Wednesday, 04/5/2023 @ 10:18am |
Although I listen to Jethro Tull and ELP often, I think after Zevon, the induction of classic rock in 70s may be over. Jethro Tull and Elp may be inducted in ME. The hall seems to focus on 80 and 90s more. Posted by drivingforce on Wednesday, 04/5/2023 @ 13:22pm |
Mat R, Raichu, Posted by souljah on Wednesday, 04/5/2023 @ 14:05pm |
Regarding Jethro Tull, ELP KC (King Crimson) KC (& Sunshine Band) Kansas, all interesting choices, Usually the Hall gives performers a couple shots at the Performer category before going to ME (LL Cool J, Kraftwerk, Priest, etc.) But I suppose that might change now that it is pretty blatant that the committee will get their preferences inducted one way or another.

They will not induct Wings (or as a main performer with Paul and not just as a music excellence backing band) for one reason - They intentionally have all Beatles in twice (once as a band, once for their solo careers) and do not want to make the association of putting Paul to a higher level then the rest Posted by Guest on Saturday, 04/8/2023 @ 06:45am |

Also, the Fan Vote doesn't always guarantee induction because it's going to be like the People's Choice Awards where it's based on popularity. Do we need to go back to 2020 when DMB ended up being in 1st but not being voted for the honor. Posted by Ron Jenkins on Sunday, 04/9/2023 @ 15:02pm |

Dude, I haven't seen no source about this since it's full of errors. You had to have a legitimate source in order to prove the point, otherwise your statements based on what you're seeing are moot/inaccurate. And because there's only less than 15 artists on the ballot, only 5 or 6 would get elected as performers. So far, the only guarantees for induction are Willie Nelson & Kate Bush, the rest are a hit or miss. Posted by Ron Jenkins on Sunday, 04/9/2023 @ 23:10pm |

I think Brian Eno should be inducted as soon as possible. Brian Eno may be the most influential musician after 70s. He has successful art rock albums which are influential to post-punk and new wave artists. Then, he makes definition to what we called ambient music, which is influential to many electronic artists. He is also one of the most successful producers, he has made albums for many important artists like Bowie, Devo, Talking Heads, U2 and Coldplay. I think he should be in as solo artists as soon as possible. It is ridiculous for him not in. If Todd Rundgren can be inducted, Brian Eno should be inducted as well.

Current members in nomination committee do not like AOR/pop rock/soft rock stuffs and artists like Boston, Styx, Foreigner may never get nominated. They think this kind of genre is well represented by artists like Journey, Double Brothers and Chicago. Jethro Tull, ELP, King Crimson, Bad Company and the Guess Who may never obtain a nomination in the future as current nomination committee will focus more on artists in 80s and 90s.

The idea of the nom com dismissing the idea of inducting Jethro Tull, The Guess Who, and King Crimson is really disappointing. Sure, you can give guys like Robert Fripp or Randy Bachman "Musical Excellence" prizes in the future but Jethro Tull has the potential to be one of those bands that can get inducted on their first nomination and they're just not going to do it because "well we already have Genesis, Yes, and The Moody Blues in so that fills out our prog rock quota." That mentality is so lame. Posted by Guest on Monday, 04/10/2023 @ 15:45pm |

It is hard to say. It is very very competitive in this year, most of nominated artists have a chance and lots of things can change in last minutes. Richie, do not ask me the same question again as I have responded you before. I can only say Willie Nelson, George Michael have a good chance.

I'll just say it. Just put Rage Against the Machine in Musical Excellence already. I think people are tired of seeing them on the ballot and if they get treated like regular inductees at the ceremony, it shouldn't matter. A lot of people say Rage is "too big" for Musical Excellence and it would expose how truly broken the voting system is but the Rock Hall brought it on themselves by starting this trend with LL Cool J. They made their bed and now they have to lie in it. Posted by Guest on Monday, 04/10/2023 @ 20:46pm |

The problem with Rage is that they occupy an unusual space. It's very rare for an artist these days to be inducted via the ballot at 4+ nominations. You would think Tom Morello being in the nom com would move the needle but so far, no dice. Posted by Guest on Monday, 04/10/2023 @ 23:06pm |

As of now, indie artists may be hard to be inducted as there are no indie artists inducted already currently. We can treat "alternative" as the father of the "indie" and most important alternative artists like Joy Division/New Order, the Smiths, the Replacements, Jane's Addiction, Sonic Youth, Pixies find themselves very hard to be inducted as of now. I do not think the rock hall will be friendly with "indie" music. Posted by power on Tuesday, 04/11/2023 @ 12:07pm |
If big alternative artists like the Smashing Pumpkins are not inducted currently and I think big indie artists like Arcade Fire, Wilco and Vampire Weekend will have to wait for their chances. Posted by power on Tuesday, 04/11/2023 @ 12:08pm |

Mat R, yes, let us hope more alternative artists inducted in recent years, which will be a good sign for potential indie artists' nomination. Posted by power on Tuesday, 04/11/2023 @ 12:27pm |
If you considered Radiohead as indie as they're Alternative, then yeah not enough of them inducted. The likes of JD/NO, The White Stripes, Soundgarden & RATM would definitely push others you guys mentioned for inclusion. Posted by Ron Jenkins on Tuesday, 04/11/2023 @ 17:35pm |

The result of voting should not be leaked to the voters in the voting process so he is fake. The voters should not know the total situation of voting.

Elle Dee, the White Stripes is the most contributor of the garage rock revival, it is also one of the hottest indie rock band in 00s. So the White Stripes is definitely rock hall worthy. RATM has inspired a lot of nu-metal and alternative metal artists after them plus RATM is one of the most hottest alternative rock band in the 90s. RATM is also needed to be inducted.

My predictions (at the moment): Posted by Elle Dee on Friday, 04/14/2023 @ 09:18am |
I think John Peel should be inducted in the rock Hall. He makes great contribution in the career of Joy Division/New Order and the Smiths. He has made great devotion to make propagation of punk music, alternative music, indie music and some experimental/avant-garde underground music. Although he is in TV show in British not America, he should be credited with the Ahmet Ertegun award as soon as possible. He is one of the most influential dj after 1970.

mat r, if this year inducts Willie Nelson, George Michael, Cyndi Lauper, Missy Elliott, Sheryl Crow, Warren Zevon, which is a likely case, these artists are mainly pop and other genres oriented. Crow has many rock elements and Zevon is singer-songwriter from rock era but their music is less "rock" than RATM, Iron Maiden and Soundgarden, what people call "classic rock". Posted by power on Friday, 04/14/2023 @ 20:50pm |
I think the most possible "rock band" in people's stereotypes to be inducted this year is the White Stripes. Posted by power on Friday, 04/14/2023 @ 20:57pm |
Let's just hope some critics picks are voted in this year because we don't need to repeat what happened last year. The idea of getting Crow, Michael & Lauper inducted alongside Elliott, Nelson & Zevon proves that the RRHOF couldn't go a year without a band or duo. I mean some bands including JD/NO, The White Stripes, RATM & Soundgarden might have a better chance to be nominated again & inducted by next year but let's not forget we have Coldplay being FYE for nomination by that point.

My guess on artists who will benefit from certain nominee's potential induction in this year. Posted by power on Saturday, 04/15/2023 @ 16:31pm |
I think after Motorhead and Iron Maiden being inducted, metal artists will be hard to be even nominated. I do not like the chance of many metal giants like Megadeth, Slayer and Pantera. Some alternative metal artists have a chance like fishbone and Living Colour as they will be supported by Tom Morello and Dave Grohl. I think the hall is not friendly with Motley Crue, which will hinder possible nomination. Posted by Power on Saturday, 04/15/2023 @ 16:39pm |
Pantera has a better chance as they are the premier metal band of the 90s. Things come in their own time Posted by K-Dawg on Saturday, 04/15/2023 @ 19:53pm |

Surprisingly, he isn't wrong about TVU. They were perhaps the biggest influence-based and quality or records based inductee, and time has shown that influence and quality means nothing to the hall anymore, just more records sold + biggest brand name + now biggest pop hits only. See Kraftwerk or Fela Kuti or anyone else in that regard. Posted by Guest on Sunday, 04/16/2023 @ 08:12am |
I think VU still has good chance if they are voted recently. Inductees of punk, alternative music will all vote for them without hesitance like Ramones, Sex pistols, the Clash, the Prentenders, Blondie, Talking Heads, U2, REM, Patti Smith, the Stooges, the Cure, Depeche Mode, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Green Day, Radiohead, Nine Inch Nails, Duran Duran and so on. A ton of inductees owe huge dept to VU and they will vote for VU. It will be to dumb to not vote for them. VU is an american band, and will not face the problem of artists in other countries like Kraftwerk, the Smiths, Fela Kuti just to name a few. Posted by power on Sunday, 04/16/2023 @ 08:31am |
For example, if the B-52's and the velvet underground appear on the same ballot. I think most voters will vote for VU without doubt. Posted by power on Sunday, 04/16/2023 @ 08:37am |
Vu would get in today but the induction would include Doug yule (a maybe the biggest omission from an induction ever) and nico Posted by Mat R on Sunday, 04/16/2023 @ 10:07am |
Just my own opinion. I now think Iron Maiden will be inducted in 2024 in musical excellence category like Judas Priest did. In 2024 they will have 3 nominations as same as Priest. Then the hall will try on Motorhead. Motorhead may have better chance than Maiden and Priest in main performer category as motorhead are also recognized by punk artists, which Maiden and Priest do not have. Motorhead also have a top 500 greatest album by the rolling stone magazine, which Maiden and Priest also do not have. Posted by Power on Sunday, 04/16/2023 @ 10:12am |
One main flaw is that the commercial success of Motorhead is worse than Priest and Maiden. As time goes on, the motorhead may face weaker competition than Maiden and Priest as many big names will be inducted recently. Posted by power on Sunday, 04/16/2023 @ 10:24am |

Eddie Vedder hoped Black Flag, X, Sonic Youth and Fugazi to be inducted in 2010. Posted by power on Sunday, 04/16/2023 @ 15:54pm |
When you reached your 5+ nominations then it's likely that you're not going to be voted in as performers. I mean it's absolutely so tiring seeing Rage Against the Machine being on the ballot 5 times. People tend to forget LL Cool J & Kraftwerk had 6 nominations before the Hall decided to put them under Musical Excellence & Early Influence, if the same happens to Rage then it's not gonna matter. Judas Priest got inducted through one of those categories yet they ended up having a performance at the ceremony so I can guarantee that I'll happen to RATM since there's so much backlog that needs to be corrected. With said, let's hope this is their final nomination & shot to be inducted as performers. Others like MC5, New York Dolls & Devo are done with the nomination route & most likely going to be inducted also in special categories. Posted by Ron Jenkins on Sunday, 04/16/2023 @ 21:13pm |

The ballot track isn't that useful because 99% of the ballots we see are from writers and critics and they were drastically off last year. In fact the most useful ballot last year was some random retired concert promoter out of Maine who I think was the lone 4/5 or 5/5 last year (he was like the only person with Lionel) because he kind of voted for who made him money.

If I go with my trends connection that I usually follow in my predictions, I think Carly Simon's induction was asexual at this point; it finished off a line of 70s female singer/songwriters that began with Joni Mitchell, Joan Baez and Carole King. Her slot very well may go to Warren Zevon, which is an interesting coincidence because he is also one of the rockist darlings on this ballot, even if Werewolves of London (in my market they also play Lawyers, Guns and Money and Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner) is the only single that repeats the CR algorithm on stations focusing on 60s-80s rock. Sheryl Crow doesn't fit my profile for that slot, because while she is a female songwriter, she is 90s, and I don't think the hall is that ready to leave the 70s yet, for all those pandering to the contrary. It very well may evolve into a Harry Nilsson, or a Boz Scaggs in the future. And, has there really been an 80s songwriter given recognition yet? This is where Tracy Chapman or maybe Sade, some individuals who are critically acclaimed but limited in chart success may become a player. Posted by K-Dawg on Tuesday, 04/18/2023 @ 10:17am |

After Cyndi Lauper, Sheryl Crow, George Michael being inducted. There will be fewer big names in the next few years.

The next huge popular artist will be Beyonce and she will not be eligible until 2028 I doubt if Phil Collins will be nominated and if Sting will be nominated for the second time.

Agreed on Rage. They seem kinda stale and are clogging up a spot that could be taken by another 90's alternative artist. They definitely have their fans, but they're a tough sell for anyone who isn't into them. Give them a couple years off, them bring them back and see what happens.

The era of inducting 60s' artists in main category is generally done after the induction of the Moody Blues and the Zombies. There are still a ton of work needed to be done on artists in artists from 70-90. Posted by power on Wednesday, 04/19/2023 @ 15:15pm |
Yes. I think the six will be inducted for a few days. I think the White Stripes, Joy Division/New Order, Soundgarden and A Tribe Called Quest will appear on the ballot next year and they are strong contenders or almost to be locks to be inducted in a weaker ballot in 2024. I still think Bush will be in ME in this year. If she can not be voted in her hottest year, she can not be voted when her degree of heat fades. Therfore, I think the hall will waste no time on putting her on the ballot again. Posted by power on Wednesday, 04/19/2023 @ 15:23pm |

I think the chance of George not being inducted in this year is almost zero. Last year, there was rumor that Carly Simon did poorly and ATCQ was strong and the rumor seemed to be fake. I still believe the 6 inductees will be Crow, Lauper, Elliott, Nelson, Michael, Zevon. If 7, one of the White Stripes, Joy Division/New Order, Soundgarden and A Tribe Called Quest will be the no.7. Most of them will return on the ballot in 2024 and are almost locked to be inducted in a weaker ballot. Posted by power on Thursday, 04/20/2023 @ 13:39pm |

Ben, yes, there are still a ton of snubs in performer category in 1970-1990. It may need 15-20 years to induct most of snubs. The Spinners has the highest chance of induction in your list. Posted by power on Thursday, 04/20/2023 @ 13:55pm |

Richie, the winner of fan vote is very likely to be inducted in?most years (except for dmb). George has stronger support from industry and critics than DMV.

I just want to get all the Nominees covered. Many including me have covered Posted by Ben on Friday, 04/21/2023 @ 04:45am |
I think the dark horse will be one of the White Stripes, Joy Division/New Order, A Tribe Called Quest, Soundgarden. Kate Bush will go straight in ME I think. I do not believe rumor of the Spinners by the fake voter richie belives. If there is self-claimed inner source information, Richie will believe with no-brianer. If I have to rank the chance of the dark horse, I have ATCQ > the White Stripes > JD/NO > Soundgarden. Posted by power on Friday, 04/21/2023 @ 05:55am |
I think the most likely scenario is that there will be only one British artist in main performer category. We should focus on the cases more in 2021 and 2022 as new people operate the process since 2021. Posted by power on Friday, 04/21/2023 @ 06:19am |
To me, the trend doesn't always follow nationality. The fact duran duran and Eurythmics went in last year is exactly why I'm predicting joy division/New Order. They are the next big new wave name, and the hall really wants to showcase the genre Posted by K-Dawg on Friday, 04/21/2023 @ 11:13am |

I was just looking at a Rolling Stone list for Top Albums of 1989. And let me tell you There is the Motley Crue Dr. Feelgood album. This proves that Rolling Stone rated Motley Crue well in 1989. It was #18. So why the heck doesn't the HAll try hard with M Crue, Posted by Ben on Saturday, 04/22/2023 @ 04:40am |

If Kate Bush is not inducted as a performer, I agree with others here that a Musical Excellence induction is in order. Would like consideration for Thom Bell, Arthur Baker, Marv Johnson and Carole Kaye Posted by souljah on Saturday, 04/22/2023 @ 12:50pm |
The white stripes not getting in likely reflects their lack of interest. Meg would not show and Jack openly doesn't even know where the hall is and doesn't care. There has been no campaign or acknowledgement of the nomination at all from either party unlike radiohead who's bassist was excited at the nomination Posted by Mat r on Saturday, 04/22/2023 @ 13:14pm |
Man if it's really Missy/Crow/Michael/Lauper/Obvious Willie induction/wild card it'll be very disappointing. Not even the worst since just about all of them are very worthy of induction but disappointing with the depth of this nominee year and the focus on brand name and pop elements that don't show too much in the way of rock Posted by Guest on Saturday, 04/22/2023 @ 15:24pm |
I agree with the anonymous voter Mat R interviewed that the likely scenario of inductees would be George, Missy, Willie, Cyndi, Sheryl, Kate (either in performance or ME), and Warren. Let's be honest, the rock hall want big ratings for their show and they know George, Missy, Sheryl, Cyndi, and Kate are popular with the young folks, especially Kate.

My final predictions for the 2023 inductees are: Posted by richie on Saturday, 04/22/2023 @ 16:17pm |
There is a fata flaw in your logic, albeit a minor one. George Michael is dead. Sure, we can honor him, but are they going to bring in Andrew Ridgeley to accept for him? Yes, I do realize he will probably be inducted anyway Posted by K-Dawg on Saturday, 04/22/2023 @ 16:18pm |
Mat R Posted by John R.C. on Saturday, 04/22/2023 @ 16:24pm |
I think the next big 80's New Wave/Alternative acts to get inducted into the Rock Hall following Talking Heads, The Police, Elvis Costello & The Attractions, The Pretenders, U2, Blondie, R.E.M., The Cars, The Cure, Depeche Mode, The Go-Go's, Duran Duran and Eurythmics should and will be The B-52's, INXS, Billy Idol, The Bangles, Tears For Fears, Pet Shop Boys, Huey Lewis & The News, Culture Club and Human League, not Joy Division/New Order. I think JD/NO's lack of major mainstream commercial success and name recognition in America will really hurt their chances of getting inducted with the current voting body/committee whereas the other acts that I mentioned (The B-52's, INXS, Billy Idol, The Bangles, Tears For Fears, Pet Shop Boys, Huey Lewis & The News, Culture Club and Human League) all had major mainstream commercial success and name recognition in America so they all have much better chances of getting in with the current voting body/committee when they finally get nominated. Posted by richie on Saturday, 04/22/2023 @ 16:31pm |
Maybe an unpopular opinion, not too sure, but Wham/George Michael should have been inducted as one act combined together like JD/NO instead of just George. You'd just need to add Ridgeley to the bill and you cover George's entire career and have someone to accept for him, and to me it's basically the same linage act with how much George was the driving force on Wham. There's also blurred lines between the acts too like how Careless Whisper was promoted as by Wham or by George Michael depending on release, so you can argue George Michael's solo career is basically the same thing Posted by Guest on Saturday, 04/22/2023 @ 16:38pm |
The hall nominates JD/NO before he B-52's, INXS, Billy Idol, The Bangles, Tears For Fears, Pet Shop Boys, Huey Lewis & The News, Culture Club and Human League, it shows that the committee thinks the JD/NO has better chance to be voted or are more important to be inducted first. Artists like Human League and Culture Club may never get a nomination. Posted by driving force on Saturday, 04/22/2023 @ 16:48pm |
It should be noted that New Order sales more albums than Todd Rundgren in America actually. Posted by driving force on Saturday, 04/22/2023 @ 16:54pm |

Richie said T.Rex and Roxy Music got in because Marc Bolan and Bryan Ferry knew industry people. Posted by driving force on Saturday, 04/22/2023 @ 17:01pm |
The only reason JD/NO might not be in this year (and even then they might squeeze in this year) is just how strong the ballot is. They will 100% be in by 2024 if not this year because they hit every mark of critical success (might be the most critically beloved act in this nominee list), heavy influence in multiple genres that basically any inductee who started late 70s onward is influenced by, well known brand names and commercially successful material. There's a reason they were considered anywhere from the #1-#5 biggest snubs even when counted as separate groups Posted by Guest on Saturday, 04/22/2023 @ 17:06pm |

Speaking of influence, Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan just did an interview where Rock Hall questions were brought up and he mentioned how he said that Joy Division was the second more important band ever after The Beatles, and that New Order is up there too. Hyperbole or bias, sure, but it cannot be stressed how influential and significant these two bands are to just about any 1980s and beyond artist Posted by Guest on Saturday, 04/22/2023 @ 19:54pm |
Billy Corgan should induct JD/NO. That would also help Smashing Pumpkins' nomination chances. It helped Nine Inch Nails get inducted when Trent Reznor inducted The Cure. Posted by Guest on Saturday, 04/22/2023 @ 21:05pm |

A potential inductee is ATCQ, if there are seven inductees, ATCQ will have great chance to make it. ATCQ recieve lots of votes lately.The chance of George Michael is very solid despite the rumors of his potential fail. Crow and Lauper may split rule but at bow they are lock. If the Hall wants to induct 6 from information of committee, ATCQ still has decent chance. Posted by BlueOysterCult on Sunday, 04/23/2023 @ 12:49pm |

I have read rumors from other forums, I think the Spinners are like ATCQ of the last year to confuse people. ATCQ was claimed to be inducted in the rumors of the last year. If the rumor does not have surprise, no one will pay attention to the rumor. George Michael is a larger RnB related artist than the Spinners. Posted by BlueOysterCult on Monday, 04/24/2023 @ 04:15am |
This will not be a big class. If more than 7 artists are inducted, the induction ceremony will become too long and be hard to be arranged. Committee members I know expect class with six. Posted by BlueOysterCult on Monday, 04/24/2023 @ 04:17am |

Posted by John R.C. on Tuesday, 04/25/2023 @ 00:36am |

And honestly, my only wish for the final vote is if *BOTH* A Tribe Called Quest and Missy Elliott get inducted this year. Posted by John R.C. on Tuesday, 04/25/2023 @ 01:26am |
Iron Maiden has more commercial success than Judas Priest and they have chance to be inducted via main route, but they may need a class with less competition, not in this year. Posted by power on Tuesday, 04/25/2023 @ 04:06am |
At this point I think people here are now underestimating Kate Bush's chances by assuming she's auto-ME. From the votes we do know from the public over half voted for her and leading that,but more importantly for the committee vote Kate Bush came in 2nd, she had enough interest/votes to get nominated this many times before she had breakout hit worldwide. Many know this is now and never for her. Posted by Guest on Tuesday, 04/25/2023 @ 04:52am |

Ben to answer your question yes Hank Snow is a country singer. He started in the 50's I believe. Posted by Greg F on Tuesday, 04/25/2023 @ 07:12am |
Yeah, Hank Snow was a country artist from the 50's whose best known songs would be "I've Been Everywhere" (which Johnny Cash famously covered) and "I'm Movin' On". He also is credited with helping discover Elvis Presley. So he's got some tangential connection to rock & roll. Posted by Michael W. on Tuesday, 04/25/2023 @ 09:06am |
Iron Maiden getting inducted would be the biggest shock. What's this? The voting body actually voting in a heavy metal band? The first since Metallica in 2009? (Judas Priest was a side induction so that doesn't count). Posted by Guest on Tuesday, 04/25/2023 @ 09:20am |

I'm just hoping we get a very surprising inductee class this year. The last two classes were VERY predictable. Posted by xwing1212 on Wednesday, 04/26/2023 @ 13:01pm |
Just contemplating, I wonder how many different artists have been suggested for induction on just this thread. I would guess well over 300, which would roughly double the current Hall. Posted by souljah on Wednesday, 04/26/2023 @ 13:09pm |
Very good point by bacon. it's likely the uk and European inductees are all voting for Kate. Elton John shared a story that when he invited Kate to his wedding, everyone there wanted to meet her because she's highly regarded there. Posted by Pink on Wednesday, 04/26/2023 @ 14:10pm |
I'd hold up on all of the UK and Europe voting for Kate. It assumes Kraftwerk know what the rock hall is, that they know they were inducted, that they know they can vote, that they care to vote. Same goes for 3/5 of radiohead. Also decent chance they forgot to send the cure ballots again. Posted by Mat R on Wednesday, 04/26/2023 @ 16:56pm |

Looking at last year now Posted by Mat r on Wednesday, 04/26/2023 @ 19:40pm |
Maybe Kate Bush can really benefit from the British vote this year in the way the British vote helped Roxy Music and T. Rex in previous years (even though RM and T. Rex were inducted on their first noms and Kate is on her fourth). I just hope that if she comes in 7th place, the Rock Hall better not make the cut-off at 6th place. I say this even if there's a major gap between 6th and 7th place. Posted by xwing1212 on Wednesday, 04/26/2023 @ 21:11pm |

Yes she is too young for that. She is only 17 days older than Madonna (though she was working on her 5th Album at the time of Madonna's breakthrough). There would be grounds on use of technology and negotiation of record contracts! Posted by Rich on Thursday, 04/27/2023 @ 01:18am |

The trouble for the execs is that Kate is making all the money from new sales/streaming. She has virtually 100% ( 100% in US) ownership of her music ( and largely has since 1980 - she didn't take advances in return and from this time paid all recording/ video production costs herself). From this March she has removed distribution rights from Warners with rights given to a relatively small UK independent 51st State Conspiracy. The company are working for her rather than the other way round. It is estimated she receives well over 90% of royalties and streaming payments whereas many artists receive less than 20% Posted by Rich on Thursday, 04/27/2023 @ 05:51am |

Btw I want to address a theory Posted by Mat R on Thursday, 04/27/2023 @ 06:58am |
As much as I love Kate Bush and Joy Division/New Order, I just don't see either of them getting inducted with the current voting committee, I think that their lack of major mainstream commercial success and name recognition in America will really hurt their chances of getting in, I honestly think that and this may sound controversial, but I honestly think that even though they both absolutely deserve induction by far as they're two of the biggest snubs from the Rock Hall by far, that their spots on the ballot this year really should have gone to Celine Dion and INXS because both Celine and INXS are both much bigger names in the States with much more major mainstream commercial success and name recognition in America than Kate and JD/NO, plus it's been 20 years since an Australian act got nominated and inducted (AC/DC in 2003) and 10 years since a Canadian act got nominated and inducted (Rush in 2013) so I think that Celine and INXS really should have been nominated this year instead of Kate and JD/NO because they both have had major mainstream commercial success and name recognition in America and are much bigger names in the States than Kate and JD/NO. Posted by richie on Thursday, 04/27/2023 @ 09:00am |
Just stop, Richie. Posted by K-Dawg on Thursday, 04/27/2023 @ 10:06am |
Richie should go to popular music forum to make cheer for the chart success of Taylor Swift, Billie Ellish, etc. His music taste is very poor. Posted by driving force on Thursday, 04/27/2023 @ 10:58am |
Based on Richie's theory, the hall should just use the total sales of albums in billboard chart to make nomination and induction and artists like the velvet underground should be never nominated. Celion Dion should be inducted in first year of eligibility. Posted by driving force on Thursday, 04/27/2023 @ 11:02am |
I can almost guarantee that Celion Dion will not be nominated before 2030. Posted by driving force on Thursday, 04/27/2023 @ 11:14am |
What does richie do every day is just licking the asshole of the "true" voter and makes harm to some artists he does not like. Lionel Richie in last year and Kate Bush and JD/NO in this year. His prediction of Celion Dion's nomination is the most absurd opinion I have ever seen on this forum. Posted by driving force on Thursday, 04/27/2023 @ 11:19am |

Although I do not see JD/NO and Kate Bush will be inducted in this year. I would like to say the contribution of Celion Dion to the popular music is much worse than JD/NO and Kate Bush, and worse than Cyndi Lauper, Madonna, Mariah Carey, Whiteney Houston and Janet Jackson. JD/NO should be the next new wave act to be inducted. The members of nomination committee seem to think so and nominate them first plus there are some actual voters feel good about their chance. They like the VU in the 80s and influence a ton of artists in alternative/indie/electronic scene. The total sales of albums of New Order in America is almost equal to Warren Zevon and higher than past inductee Todd Rundgren. They are not total commercial failure in America. Blue Monday is also a famous song. Posted by power on Thursday, 04/27/2023 @ 15:33pm |
The hall should induct the most popular artists in America every year to satisfy richie. Posted by driving force on Thursday, 04/27/2023 @ 15:40pm |
No matter how ample your points are, dear richie just refuses to listen and repeats the same opinions. To be honest, every time I see his quotation, I feel offended and disrespectful, and I feel very angry.

I just hope this year isn't going to be as populist just like last year because it just goes against what the Hall actually stands for: Honor those who left an significant influence, constant innovation & cultural impact on the landscape of rock & roll, not basically sales & hits. With said, my final predictions would be like this: Posted by Ron Jenkins on Thursday, 04/27/2023 @ 16:41pm |
I think the next 80's New Wave/Alternative acts that should and will be inducted are The B-52's and INXS, because they both achieved major mainstream commercial success and name recognition in America like Talking Heads, The Police, Elvis Costello & The Attractions, The Pretenders, U2, Blondie, R.E.M., The Cars, The Cure, Depeche Mode, The Go-Go's, Duran Duran and Eurythmics, As much as I love Joy Division/New Order, I see them being more in line with Devo, The Smiths and The Replacements (80's New Wave/Alternative acts that just didn't have the major mainstream commercial success and name recognition in America to get in with the current voting body/committee) and struggling to get voted in because of that.

Richie bringing up Celine Dion as a possible future nominee is perhaps the funniest thing I've read in a while. Celine Dion? Really?

If my memory serves me well, someone in the hall said the hall wanted to hold in induction ceremony in London in the future. Therefore, the hall may try to overcome the bias against British acts in the future, which is a good sign. If the hall adds more British voters, we may see the Jam, Blur and many other British artists to be inducted in the future. Posted by power on Friday, 04/28/2023 @ 07:15am |

If the Hall of Fame wants to increase its profile here in the UK by holding an event in London it would be wise to hold off from forcing Kate Bush in this year - unless she gets the votes. If she would be inducted in London there is an actual chance she would turn up. Other than her iconic 2014 shows she has only appeared 3 times in public in the last 28 years - all at award shows. Of the living nominees this year she is by some considerable distance the most well-known in the UK and has sold more records than anyone except George Michael. The fact that she went to a pub in Oxford was enough for media reports recently. At the moment the profile of the Hall of Fame is barely above zero here and I only became aware because of the Fuss some George Michael fans have been making. On the Kate sites, there is little to no mention of it at all. Posted by Pete on Friday, 04/28/2023 @ 09:32am |
I'm not sure if I've had a harder time making a prediction that I am this year. The only one I feel even remotely certain about is Willie Nelson. Beyond that it feels like a total crapshoot.

It is perhaps notable that the official websites for the four British acts have made no mention of their nominations over the last couple of months. Even their fan groups seem to have very limited interest ( apart from a couple of George Michael groups) For example the Kate Bush fan sites have made almost zero mentions and appear more occupied by behind the scene movement pointing towards new music and even a possible tour. (also rumours she is about to be appointed a Dame- would only be the 7th rock musician to be knighted and the first Woman) Posted by Steve on Saturday, 04/29/2023 @ 17:40pm |

Part 2 of my rearranged project. Later on while doing this I had a lot of make-ups due to either there not being many inductees that became eligible that year (2008, 2012) or some having none at all so far (2011, 2016). I'll post the rest of the classes tomorrow: Posted by Raichu on Saturday, 04/29/2023 @ 20:04pm |

I doubt the ballot tracker is a reliable predictor of who will be in the RRHOF. 35 votes of a possible 1100 is hardly a representative sample. Look at last year's vote; they had A Tribe Called Quest, Pat Benatar, Dionne Warwick, Fela Kuti and Judas Priest as their top ten. I don't think I need to remind anyone that only one of those was inducted as a performer. Posted by Joe S. on Sunday, 04/30/2023 @ 02:31am |
PB was elected last year. But you are correct the "tracker" is useless. Lionel Richie was near the bottom of the "tracker", but was 2nd in ballot votes according to Eddie Trunk, right behind Dolly. Posted by nuick on Sunday, 04/30/2023 @ 03:37am |

Ballot tracker just reflects the thinking of critics. However, the main body voting is the past inductees and people inside music industry and many of them tend to pick bigger names as bigger names can make them money. Posted by power on Sunday, 04/30/2023 @ 04:16am |
The final result of voting rank in 2022 is still unknown to the society and what we get is information from different sources. It is hard to distinguish them if it is true. Posted by power on Sunday, 04/30/2023 @ 04:18am |

Did someone seriously say tori Amos is bigger or more important than Björk? That's just objectively untrue. False. Also Björk is Miles and leagues better for one, but Björk has done way more and inspired and shaped more music than individual pianos that Tori's played. It's like comparing talking heads to Dan Fogelberg. And no disrespect intended to Dan fogelberg btw Posted by Will M on Sunday, 04/30/2023 @ 08:07am |

I think that out of the three leakers (AlysRivers, BlueOysterCult and brucewayneofgotham), I think that the most accurate is brucewayneofgotham, because he's an official real Rock Hall voter and he sees the voting results along with other Rock Hall voters in private Facebook groups of Rock Hall voters and the voting results are not known to the public besides the voting committee, so I think that brucewayneofgotham's information regarding about the 2023 official voting is much more real, true, reliable and realistic than BlueOysterCult and AlysRivers.

According to BoyGenius on forums.stevehoffman.tv as brucewayneofgotham, He said that Kate Bush finished dead last in the official voting two out of her three previous nominations before this year and she was in the bottom of the official voting again this year as well, Also, he (BoyGenius/brucewayneofgotham) said on forums.stevehoffman.tv ( https://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/2023-rock-and-roll-hall-of-fame-nominees.1166615/page-120#post-31926075 ) that we may see 8 elected by the vote this year (that may be a first), so there's a good chance we will see 8 elected this year.

I guess Kate Bush will never be popular with record execs due to the business model she has run for over 40 years. There is no money to be made as she is guaranteed in excess of 85% of all royalties and streaming fees. Posted by Pete on Sunday, 04/30/2023 @ 17:57pm |
BoyGenius is BOC, but I have no idea if they are connected. The "nut" that Richie mentions on the Hoffman forums.

I'm sure your right. There is actually serious talk that she is preparing some live events or a tour as she has recently established a new company for 'artistic production' as did before the last set of shows.

I respect Bambach but part of me hopes his prediction is not the final class. The most competitive ballot in years and it ends up being the most vanilla and predictable assortment of inductees? Knowing the voters it might as well be. I was thinking of going to the ceremony this year (I only live a few hours away from NYC) but if that is the final class, I'm skipping it.

The class is going to be Willie Nelson, Cyndi Lauper, Warren Zevon, Missy Elliott, Sheryl Crow, The Spinners, A Tribe Called Quest and George Michael, a large class. Posted by BoyGenius on Sunday, 04/30/2023 @ 19:04pm |
Like if Kate Bush or JD/NO are able to squeak by, I'd be excited as I love alternative music. But I don't find Sheryl Crow's music to be interesting, I'm not much of a rap/hip-hop fan so I don't care about Missy Elliot, and while I respect country music (except that Luke Bryan/Florida Georgia Line crap) it's never been a genre that was in my musical rotation. So while I respect Willie Nelson, Cyndi Lauper, and Warren Zevon, I don't know if I would go to a ceremony specifically for them. I would much rather watch the ceremony at home if this is the class instead of going in person. Posted by xwing1212 on Sunday, 04/30/2023 @ 19:06pm |

For that matter Joy Division/New Order were just met with laughs on both. Howard did not support the Spinners, but Jon and Gary did.

One operator (Harris or Sykes, I forget) in hall once said he wanted the ceremony to be held in London in the future. If that is true, we can see a year in the future that many British artists are inducted. It is reasonable. Because if you have a ceremony in London and the inductees are mostly artists only making commercial success in the united states like Warren Zevon, who will go to the ceremony?

Kate Bush certainly deserves inclusion, she is hugely influential. Just this week Damon from Gorillaz talked about how much he wants to work with her. She has influenced so many musicians. It's insane that she has been left out for so long. She finished 7th in the poll ahead of Sheryl Crow is pretty amazing. Posted by Joe Mangine on Monday, 05/1/2023 @ 10:38am |

That's my biggest issue with the performer inductees since 2021. Everything has become so predictable and safe. Even with a ballot as competitive as this one, it's looking to be another safe, vanilla year. I'll just say things were more exciting under the old Rock Hall leadership.

We will see what class of this year and next year will be? If they are very easy to be predicted and popularity oriented, I think I will lost interest and do not watch the rock and roll hall of fame again. If this trend continues, we may find that there will be no rock bands nominated and all nominations are rnb/rap/pop artists. I do not against the inclusion of artists of other genres, I think the standard of induction should at least be B level rock acts and A level acts in other genres. We can not just say rock n roll music is equal to all the popular music after 1952. If the hall want more diversity, why not nominated more electronic acts? Posted by driving force on Monday, 05/1/2023 @ 18:34pm |
I'll be surprised if Zevon doesn't get in. Then it would be the first class without any classic rock in a long time. Since probably 1987. Posted by Follower on Monday, 05/1/2023 @ 19:54pm |

If the hall finds metal acts to be hard to be inducted in main route, the hall should add the voters for metal. Same with other genres and British artists. The hall seems to make no efforts to overcome the bias and the result is going to more and more easy to be predicted. Before 2020, the result of every year will make surprise, but that is not the case since 2021. Posted by driving force on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 04:15am |
RIP Gordon Lightfoot. He is an all time legend, He is one of the great Folk singers of the 1960s and 70s. His biggest hit is Sundown but he is known for many folk music albums. He was big in the hey day of singer/songwriters during the 1970s Posted by Ben on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 05:52am |

There are too many more recent acts on this year's ballot, and I think this helps the Spinners and Willie Nelson. There are 14 nominees, and if they induct 7 as main performers, the Spinners will get in as main performers. No early influence or musical excellence induction for the Spinners.

Seeing a lot of good comments on combined inductions (Free/BC, Palmer/PS). The Hall has tended to want those to be continuous entities, as Small Faces became Faces with Rod and Ronnie joining in replacement of Marriott, and JD=>NO as a continuous flow. Even Parliament/Funkadelic was largely a common group of musicians around George Clinton. Would have been simpler for the Hall if they had gone the Zappa route and just inducted George Clinton.

Troy Smith has confirmed he knows the 2023 inductees. He says: "Such a diverse list of inductees this year. Can't wait for the reactions." Posted by xwing1212 on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 16:52pm |
Yes, it is a diverse group of inductees. Posted by AlysRivers on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 16:55pm |

I hope you're telling the truth AlysRivers. A lot of the predictions and "leakers" have got me feeling really jaded the past few weeks. Posted by xwing1212 on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 17:05pm |

If it's diverse by race does that mean The Spinners and A Tribe Called Quest ? Soundgarden has a Japanese and Indian member, are they inducted? If it's by genre, is it a mix of classic rock, rap, pop, alternative, new wave, country, etc? Posted by xwing1212 on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 17:13pm |

I'm guessing he's being sarcastic and either 1 or no black artists are being inducted Posted by Mat R on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 17:26pm |

Remember that Troy was a supporter of Kate Bush and Missy Elliott in the Rock Hall. I hope that gives you all hope. :) Posted by AlysRivers on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 17:45pm |
For instance I think that a country artist, a hip hop artist, an 80s pop star, and a singer songwriter on the same bill qualifies as diverse. But maybe some of our other conventional wisdom picks aren't as safe as we thought (i.e. both Willie and Sheryl getting in, or both George and Cyndi). Posted by RG on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 17:46pm |
If we're just going off by Troy's tweets, I think this might end up the class: Posted by John R.C. on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 17:49pm |
Alright AlysRivers (can't wait to see you in House of the Dragon Season 2 btw), Posted by RG on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 17:49pm |
I'd be shocked if they go George and Cyndi both. I always predicted Cyndi Just cause she's more influential and impactful I feel. But it could go either way between them, but not both of them Posted by Will M on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 17:54pm |

I just found this, from the (presumed) twitter account of Hank Moore. Have doubts this is legit given no Zevon but at least interesting enough to share at least to kick the can Posted by Guest on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 19:36pm |
If that tweet is true than this would be the wildest class in a LONG time. It would be especially wild if Kate Bush and Iron Maiden were voted in the performer category and weren't just side door inductions. However, I'm still taking this with a grain of salt. Posted by xwing1212 on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 19:46pm |
Guest Posted by Elle Dee on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 19:52pm |
Willie getting early influence would be weird considering that would indicate he did not get enough votes. Posted by xwing1212 on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 19:56pm |
Yeah, I might be mixed on the authenticity of Hank Moore's tweet. If true, it does fit with the diversity Troy L. Smith was talking about, but on the other hand, his comment about the "rawk crowd" getting upset shows that Iron Maiden didn't inducted (performer or in musical excellence). Posted by John R.C. on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 19:57pm |
Also if Hank Moore's tweet is true, then it would also discredit BOC and Ritchie's source, brucewayneofgotham. Posted by xwing1212 on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 20:02pm |

Boy, in my opinion, the 2016 and 2018 classes are the worst the Rock Hall has produced in recent years. Posted by John R.C. on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 21:21pm |
But seriously, if Hank Moore's tweet is true, then Richie is proven wrong about Joy Division-New Order no matter his claims about them being unimportant they are. Posted by John R.C. on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 21:48pm |

The class with Willie Nelson, Cyndi Lauper, Warren Zevon, Missy Elliott, Sheryl Crow, The Spinners, A Tribe Called Quest and George Michael is too large. If this is the result, this class fits the diversity and filled with non-rock artists. I still do not believe 8 main performers. Based on the quotes by brucewayneofgotham, namely BoyGenius, the #5-8 were tight last year but only 7 were inducted, this year will be the same, no chance 8 main performers.

My guess is if it pisses off classic rock purists, it would mean no Warren Zevon, Iron Maiden and Sound Garden . Posted by jay kay on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 22:47pm |

Hey guys Posted by Mat R on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 23:09pm |
With the way FRL tweeted, my other guess is that one of the top 5 pop acts (ie George Michael and Cyndi Lauper) didn't make the final cut, and considering that both of them have big fanbases that can rival the rockists, they're going to be disappointed if one of them isn't included. Posted by John R.C. on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 23:12pm |
Hank Moore is not anonymous on the internet. I think his information is more realistic than the information of anonymous brucewayneofgotham, namely BoyGenius becuase he can not make up the result to ruin his fame. Posted by power on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 23:13pm |

Mat R Posted by Elle Dee on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 23:35pm |
Generally speaking, although it seems absurd, the information by Hank Moore is more reliable than the information by previous three "insiders". Because only he is not anonymous. Posted by power on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 23:36pm |
It is also possible that Hank Moore is just guessing like us users with no leaked information. Posted by power on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 23:40pm |
Like hell. Imma keep trying right up til the reveal lol Posted by K-Dawg on Tuesday, 05/2/2023 @ 23:41pm |
Yeah, even though Hank Moore is not anonymous, the one thing that's giving me pause about me believing it is that I find it hard to believe that he has early access. Like I get Troy L. Smith because he's a journalist and has covered the Hall for many years. Posted by John R.C. on Wednesday, 05/3/2023 @ 00:17am |
What I find curious? Why would Hank Moore leak the "list", knowing this would get him expelled? The man has been a part of the voting since Day One? Posted by ben on Wednesday, 05/3/2023 @ 00:18am |
Also worth noting he made the tweet like a full day a head of time and no one has noticed. It got 2 likes (one of which was him) and 184 views. I feel if it was credible someone (eg Troy Smith) would have commented on it cause it suggests 8 inductees and basically out the whole class Posted by Mat R on Wednesday, 05/3/2023 @ 00:31am |
If the main performers are safe but there are some interesting or unexpected inductions in side category. It can also fits the definition of diversity. Posted by power on Wednesday, 05/3/2023 @ 00:54am |
Ben Posted by John R.C. on Wednesday, 05/3/2023 @ 01:05am |
Q if both Cyndi and George make it anyone else thinking the 80s are kinda done. Like it's really just weird al, billy idol and Bryan Adams left and then it's just kind of nothing in the MTV pop/rock icon realm. Who else is there before you get into double inductees? Posted by Mat r on Wednesday, 05/3/2023 @ 01:05am |

I am the original Ben that's been on here 8 years. There is Now another Ben. I have NO idea who Hank Moore is. But I do know who all the Past inductees are and some old Journalists like Robert Christgeau. I am NOT changing my Predictions officially BUT I am going to say as an honorable thing the Spinners could pull a trick and be a Main Performer NOT early influence Posted by Ben on Wednesday, 05/3/2023 @ 03:30am |
If George Michael doesn't get in, this would be the first class since 2013 where nobody has a diamond album. Posted by Follower on Wednesday, 05/3/2023 @ 04:38am |
Darren Hines' prediction from two hours ago: Posted by Elle Dee on Wednesday, 05/3/2023 @ 05:15am |
Wild that with the "rawk lovers will hate this" comment from someone who knows who is in and Zevon potentially being confirmed we might be at the point where if JD/NO don't get a surprise sneak entrance in we might definitely have the first performers class ever to be all solo artists, and only 6 people overall inducted to the hall in the performers category Posted by Guest on Wednesday, 05/3/2023 @ 05:22am |
I sure hope Darren Hines is right, because those are 100% my choices. Iron Maiden, Soundgarden, A Tribe Called Quest and Rage Against the Machine would also be worthy, but to be frank, I'll be bummed if Cyndi Lauper, Sheryl Crow and the Spinners get in, since this has been such a strong ballot. Posted by Corey Finn on Wednesday, 05/3/2023 @ 05:23am |
With hours way from the big reveal, I still stick with the safe six men class. The diversity may be reflected in side doors. I appreciate to talk with you all and learn a lot about the rock hall. See you in inductees section. Posted by power on Wednesday, 05/3/2023 @ 05:51am |
Based on the forecasting history of Darren Hines from 2019, I think most likely he will get 5/7 or 6/7 right. Posted by driving force on Wednesday, 05/3/2023 @ 06:16am |
Thought the Rock Hall Inductees would be announced on the Sirius XM Volume Channel at 8, but right now it's showing Eddie Trunk's show from 7-9. Anyone know if it's being announced on a different Sirius channel? Posted by Donnie on Wednesday, 05/3/2023 @ 06:23am |
