    The three circles can overlap. Peter Gabriel, for example. Probably David Byrne, Brian Eno, Nina Simone too, off the top of my head.

      I can think of a ton, actually. The just don’t overlap with a fourth circle, “mainstream appeal,” they’re all folk singers like Phil Ochs and David Rovics. Most main stream is probably Todd Snider and he’s by no means nationally popular or anything.

        Freddie Mercury and Prince?

        Their only controversy is that they liked sex and were bi to my mind, which as someone who that also applies to, I don’t see as immoral.
