Good Scottish Pop

First Foot makes no apologies for the entirely arbitrary choices which follow.

Scottish popular music has always been stacked with an abundance of talent, more than making up for a few turkeys along the way (see "Bad Scottish Pop"), that it would be impossible to mention everybody.

However, if you disagree with our selection vehemently or feel that we've left out a legend, living or otherwise, please e-mail us your own lists and we'll happily reconsider future lists. And yes, we know we've omitted Simple Minds.

Why?

Because we can.

But, the stars in the Scottish Pop Firmament are all here.
