Mariah, Iron Maiden, Joy Division/New Order and Oasis are nominated for the third time this year, while The Black Crowes, Idol and Sade are acts that are nominated for the second time for the honour.
Moreover, Pink is the only artist being nominated in her first year of eligibility, as her debut album Can't Take Me Home came out in 2000.
The vote will take place over the next two months, with those selected by the Hall's 1,200 voters revealed in April.
At that time, further inductees will also be named who are entering the Hall under three special committee categories: Musical Influence, Musical Excellence and the Ahmet Ertegun Non Performer Award.
