If history is to be repeated than we should pencil in Bon Jovi as an inductee for the next Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Class, as they were the runaway winners from the fan vote.
According to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the fan vote ballot takes the top five vote getters in that order and it counts the same as any one of the 90 others that it receives from musicians/experts who comprise the voting body, though again the fan vote has been unblemished to date.
The voting tally is as follows:
Bon Jovi: 1,162,146
The Moody Blues: 947,795
Dire Straits: 613,749
The Cars: 552,733
Judas Priest: 538,508
The Zombies: 529,478
Eurythmics: 451,997
- Geils Band: 349,319
Nina Simone: 184,628
Kate Bush: 179,337
Radiohead: 176,310
Rage Against the Machine: 167,903
