I was wondering about this some time ago, because quite a lot of singers/groups seem to be dissapearing . What singer/groups that are around now will still be around in the Charts in about 7-10 or more years? Which ones will last?

I'm unsure because It's quite hard to imagine singer right now being older. I think some will be around but would have changed their music style I guess. I think that Lady GaGa will definitly last long in the charts. I think Rihanna will also last long but I'm unsure about others.

Well Rhianna has already been around for 5 years so predicting a lengthy chart career for her isn't exactly rocket science.

I don't think new artists these days are destined to go the distance.

I think Pixie Lott will still be around in 5 years unlike for example Miley Cyrus. Miley will too obviously seem a child star but Pixie is radio friendly and has some good song writers, not least herself!

I'm not really sure, for all I know Chuck Berry could still be playing in 5-10 years!

However i'd say,

Lady Gaga
Jay Z
Either Paul or Ringo
Damon Alburn
Keith Richards and Mick Jagger (Seriously)
Alicia Keys
Bob Dylan (Also Seriously)
Muse
AC/DC
Beyonce
Brian Wilson (Fingers crossed)

As you can see I have high expectations for alot of older legends to still be making music for years to come.

Miley is the most popular teenager in the world right now and has had a massive movie career, TV Disney series and multi-platinum albums and singles over the world. She's absolutely massive in America, and is always gathering controversy everywhere she goes.

She'll probably have the inevitable 'breakdown' in a few years, or will else have a massive career as an adult once she's gotten rid of the Hannah Montanna/teenage rebel image.

Brian Wilson (Fingers crossed)
I've seen him four times since he started touring again and every gig has been awesome but I can't say I've been very impressed with most of his new stuff. I share your hope that he sticks around for a good while yet though.

MADONNA!(the girl has still gawt it!)
RIhanna
Britney
Christina Aguilera
Alicia Keys
Florence & The Machine
Gorillaz(NEVER go!)
Lady Gaga(whether we like her or not)
Beyonce
Kelly Rowland
Robyn
Shakira
Janelle Monae
Elbow
Bjork
Scissor Sisters
Dizzee Rascal
Eminem


those are the ones i think have the strength to remain for the next decade! and will more than likely create amazing material in the future as well as what they've achieved in the past, some underrated,some surprising and others too loved and embraced in the industry

I bet you madonna will still be going on when she's 60! I think that Beyonce will last forever but I also predict she would probably be focusing on her acting in around 10 years time. Jay-Z will last but he will be 50 in 10 years time!

I don't see what PlanB have done to suggest longevity. Miley Cyrus seems to be losing her teen fans, whilst not impressing the adults...so it woulden't be a shock to see her drift away.

Taylor Swift is huge in the US, but not so much here, so again its too early to say.

the others I agree with though.

oh and only death will stop Madonna, she'll still be working in her 90s otherwise!

It's really hard to say who'll be around, but it's clearly evident which artists will be influential and still talked about positively in 5-10 years time.

Beyonce
Mariah Carey
Alicia Keys
Amy Winehouse
Whitney Houston
Jay Z
Kanye West
Muse

Ben Drew (aka Plan B) has finally broke into the charts after his hardcore rap album in 2006 only spent three weeks in the top 100. Not only has he just released a 350K+ selling single and a platinum album (after only two months of release and is back in the top ten already) but he's starred in several films and has wrote a film to back up his new album giving it another boost when it is released. I can see him having major album success in the future, of course it's still early days but if he takes another three years on his next album and it's a success then who's to say he won't be around for a long time?

And unfortunately for us, I don't think the UK will determine whether Taylor is a big enough star or not. She's only had moderate success here but she had the biggest selling album of last year in America and the buzz around her is phenomenal.

Really?! I reckon her personal life will be sadly what is remembered more than her music.

Putting a totally different spin on this:-
Joe Bonamassa
Joe Satriani
Walter Trout
Muse(but by this time they may have become an orchestra,LOL)
Radiohead
Oli Brown
B B King
Biffy Clyro
Stone Temple Pilots
Velvet Revolver(If they can EVER find a new vocalist!!)
Foo Fighters
The Rolling Stones(despite the fact that Keef actuallly died at some point in the eighties, but nobody had the guts to tell him!!)
U2
Marillion
Take That
and of course, the Sugababes, although all 3 current members will have left and been replaced by then - possibly by the three original members!!!!!!!
Keane - and Tom Chaplin will still look as if he's only about 14 years old, LOL.
Oh, nearly forgot, Coldplay will release the eighteenth version of their "Same album again"
And, unfortunately, Madonna, in addition to drawing her pension and having a bus pass, will be subjecting us to some piece of drivel that makes "I've got Abba sample and I'm going to use it" actually,in comparison seem totally musical, and the video will be banned after complaints by "Help the aged".

Have you heard about his new upcoming Gershwin album? It looks quite good
