Yes. And also Lady who?

Different genres.

Different generations.

Big gaps in both.

I would submit that true talent is timeless and is relevant across genre and generation.

You won't get any disagreement here. I just have no desire to _ever_ see either of those two covering TT's material (unless it's in a comedy skit.)

TT is (was - when active) a class act, but was in her mid-40's when her 'comeback' career peaked back in the 80's... she was much older & more mature than either of the other two (they being either in diapers or not yet conceived) were when their major 'success' hit them, and didn't have the luxury of today's social / media / promotion machinery working for her. A lot of road time for Tina, I'm sure... and a lot of covers vs. TT originals. She's great at taking others' tunes and making them her own.

Can't say I'm a fan of either of the other two, but can appreciate some of their success and longevity thus far. (Hey, someone able to navigate a music career out of the shadows of dad's "Achy Breaky Heart" has something going for them! ) They aren't one-hit wonders in their own right, but kinda doubt either will have the longevity of TT. Few will.

Hard to believe she turned 80 last month!

Seems like just yesterday she was touring, with Glenn Frey opening...
