10. You have been on Oasis threads, so I know you are faking.
And because of that, I do not believe any of the other people who are saying they don't know who Oasis is. One bad kid ruined it for the whole class.

11. What are the criteria?
Most talented, best at attracting attention, most models knocked up? Pure charisma/sex appeal?

You could make a case for most of those guys, depending on which quality you weighted.

25. Freddy Mercury then
with Jim Morrison second. Mick gets a very distant third for the crime of growing old.

17. Gotta be Freddie. Freddie Mercury WAS rock 'n' roll incarnate.
Of the living dregs who remain, I'd say David Lee Roth, just because of all the people you've listed, I think he would be the least capable of finding other work.

18. EMT. Maybe Game Show Host.
For Roth since he already is an EMT and would make a great game show host.

20. Jagger.
Quite possibly the coolest motherfucker to ever walk the planet.




Why the whiny rapper is even on this list is beyond me.

26. Which IS the best frontman in rock?
Since two of them are dead, I guess it depends on what the definition of "is" is.

:smoke:

Note: Had to vote for Mick.

28. The dead guys
They both had charisma to burn, and they both had the quality of getting into a song to the extent that they became something bigger than themselves. And they both wrote some fucking great songs.

And they were both hypersexual. Is that inseperable from charisma?

Between the two of them, I can't decide-- my atavistic fondness for all things '60s dukes it out with Mercury's skill at the piano.

Of the living guys, Daltrey, because he too is a '60s leftover, and (unlike Jagger) not a parody of himself.

30. I must vote for Freddie, because I worship him as my god.
I am still working on my popsicle shrine, but I think it's coming along nicely. :D
