5) James Morrison
6) Ne-Yo
7) Tinie Tempah
8) Drake

BEST FEMALE ARTIST OUT OF THESE 12

1) Katy Perry
2) Adele
3) Christina Aguilera
4) Jessie J
5) Rihanna
6) Emeli Sande
7) Beyonce
8) Amy Winehouse
9) Pink
10) Leona Lewis
11) Lady Gaga
12) Lily Allen

My votes would go towards Ed Sheeran and Adele, but who would you give your votes to?

Please base your answers on their success, talent and also include your favourite songs of theirs. The point of this is to see where the most successful and popular artists originate from - the UK or elsewhere. Will be interesting if you could also list any other artists which i haven't included in the lists, past and present, to see if others agree

Alexandra Burke and Leona good vocals but could strip the soul right from your body Adele is a singer that can just sing.

Male - Brandon Flowers, Spaceman, Human, Mr.Brightside.
Female - Leona Lewis, Run, Bleeding love, Brave, Collide.

Id add Britney to the list for sure.
I dont know why you'd put in Lily Allen, Jessie j or Emeli Sande.
Talented yes, but Lily hasnt done anything in years, and Jessie and Emeli are to new to have made that much of a contribution.

Male: Will Young (favourite songs: Leave Right Now, Changes, Who Am I, Very Kind, Friday's Child)

Female: Lily Allen (favourite songs: The Fear, Everyone's At It, Chinese, F*** You, Kabul S***)

If it were my list, I'd add Olly Murs and Jason DeRulo to the male artists. And some of the following to the female artist list: Robyn, Cheryl Cole, Cher Lloyd, Britney Spears, Kelis, Siobhan Donaghy, Roisin Murphy, Nicola Roberts, Diana Vickers, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Kylie Minogue, Gabriella Cilmi and Alesha Dixon.

eta: Oops, I misread it as 'favourite artists' rather than 'best artists'. I'd say that Kanye West and Amy Winehouse are the best two artists from that selection.

Male - Calvin Harris - Favourite songs; You Used To Hold Me, Feel So Close, Bounce, The Rain, I'm Not Alone
Female - Lily Allen - Favourite songs; The Fear, Alfie, LDN, Not Fair, F*ck You, Everyone's At It, Everything's Just Wonderful

Leona comes a close second in the female stakes. Although, Ke$ha would have taken it had she been there
