Data fixed, thanks

At least Top 20

Its totally unbelievable that Marvin is only on #182??? The computation of this Chart is obviously totally flawed. According to Chart Performance, overall Sales and artistik significance, Marvin Gaye enjoys global acclaim and is set to occupy a Place in the all-Time Top 10. Therefore your chart is completely unserious.

Where exactly do you get valid "overall sales" and "artistik significance" (sic) rankings from? Who says he "is set to occupy a Place in the all-Time Top 10"?

This listing is an estimate of success in published charts, not a ranking of "artistik significance" or a listing of which artists are "best".

Suggest how to measure your criteria, or even better, set up a web site that lists artists by "artistik significance"
