Gonna rearrange our lives
International disaster, send for the master
Don't wait to see the white of his eyes
International disaster, international disaster
Price of silver droppin' so do yer Christmas shopping

Absolute arse gravy.

Where's Brian May? - I mean he only wrote about two dozen of the biggest selling songs of all time (and enjoys full royalties), and at least a quarter share in everything else Queen have done over almost 50 years.

Oh, they definitely missed May. With an estimated net worth of $175 million he should slot in at equal 16th, though I am more impressed by his Ph.D in astrophysics.

And where are the female singers? Barbra Streisand's net assets would place her fourth. I'm pretty sure others have been left out.

I think it is kind of rock centered, so nearly all pop is not there.
Barbra Streisand net worth:
$340 Million

Paul McCartney is not a rock singer, nor is Jimmy Buffett. Anyway, here is a more balanced list. Both still have gaps and neither include a single opera singer. Luciano Pavarotti left $275 million in net assets behind when he died in 2007.

Country music is so gay that the Parton sisters are enough to turn straight men into raging queers.
