That's an odd list...Barry Manilow is without a doubt #1 and Lee Roth, Cher, Meatloaf and Buble definately deserve to be on there. But the others???!!!!
I can see why those who don't 'get' Morrissey would think him cheesie because they are, well, morons. Like them or not,Tom Jones and Neil Diamond are icons in their own right and far from cheesie.
Thos missing off the list would be Scott Stapp, Elton John, Celine Dion, all of the American Idol contestants and last but not least ELVIS
BTW, cheesie does not necessarily mean awful.
