Re: Best Singer Songwriter indifferent genres
You fools have all overlooked the two best of the last 15 years:
Billy Corgan and Thom Yorke I can understand someone not liking either one of them for their voice, but their songwriting abilities are matched by very very few. |

I don't think he qualifies at all... I don't think he "writes" any of the music for Tool either, other then maybe the lyrics. From the few interviews I've read/heard its more of a collaborative process with them. Ryan Adams is a great nomination. I would also nominate Jim James from My Morning Jacket, easily one of my favorites. Willie Nelson? Waylon Jennings? I'm not too sure what % of their music each wrote, but even if it was only 50% I would consider both of them along with the already mentioned Johnny Cash.

Yorke Keenan Tweedy Sufjan and Gordon Lightfoot. |
Re: Best Singer Songwriter indifferent genres
Beck cuts across several genres and is always money.
Edit - Sea Change might be the best break-up album of all-time |
Re: Best Singer Songwriter indifferent genres
try:
halloween the stone dont drink the water all along the watchtower (yes, I know it's not originally his) Minarets Warehouse Dancing Nancies They get lighter and more 'peppy' as you go down the list, almost to the point where Warehouse and Nancies are sorta hybrids, but these are some of the darker ones (yes that's a relative term). |
