The thing about lists is they are designed to create controversy. Witness Rolling Stone’s 200 Greatest Singers of All Time. Everyone’s going to have a grievance or three. This one’s too low on the list, that one’s too high. And – especially, it would seem, if you’re a Celine Dion fan – why isn’t she (or he) on the list?
But this list created a different problem for me, because for every okay-I-get-it and are-you-serious? on the list there was also a who?
I must be getting old.
