Your Pop/Rock Music Crushes Over the Years???

[Science Friction]

I guess we have all had our singers that we developed crushes on when we were younger( and maybe not so young). Maybe the artist sang a favorite song or maybe we were just infatuated with their looks or voice. Who were your musical crushes? My sister liked Leif Garrett and Shaun Cassidy when she was younger and George Michael a little later on. As her tastes in music and other things changed over the years, so did her crushes. Instead of Leif Garrett and Shaun Cassidy, it was Janet Jackson and Shania Twain. I like me a little Shania myself.

 

My list of pop/rock music crushes over the years is pretty long. My very first goes back to probably 1973 , when I was 11. I fell head over heels in love with this lady, who I still consider one of the most beautiful women to have ever sang into a microphone. I'll always give her the top spot since she was my first crush. The woman gave me chills and hot sweats, all at the same time. Olivia, you were indeed, "Magic."

So who were a few of your musical crushes? Whose posters did you have on your bedroom wall? Whose records did you gobble up as soon as they were released? Who did you fantasize about dating?

Hopelessly devoted for 44 years now:

While I never could completely get over Olivia, this little hottie came on the scene and did her best to help 17 year-old SF in 1979. Love me some good sax and "Lotta Love" had that as well.

 

RIP, Nicolette. You are missed.

In the early 80's , this was my rocker babe. It's astounding that such a powerful sound could come from a 100 lb. body. This lady was a rocker!!! And a hot one!!!

Late '80's .... It was Marie Frederiksson(Roxette) for me.

In 1987 I was 25, she was 17. Yep, sure, I felt a little pervish at the time. But I was smitten. A cute 17 year-old who wrote and performed her own stuff with such energy and with such innocence was irresistible. She was supremely talented. Today, I am 55 ; Debbie(sorry, Deborah), 47. Should I still feel like a D.O.M. ?

I wish I could have gotten to this girl before John McEnroe did. Always put me in the mind of a young Linda Ronstadt with a sharper edge. Energetic and gorgeous!!!

Something tells me I had a connection to this lady in a previous life. Had that powerful,raspy voice that I like. Very talented. Another eighties crush that was long-lasting. Taken too soon. RIP.

Marcia Brady's crush:

One of the best singer-songwriters around for decades. Frontwoman for one of my favorite musical acts. Unique voice and talent. In her prime, she was as sexy as anyone.

Saw him several years ago in Chicago at "Joseph in the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" . He was even awesomer than before.
