I too would throw Jeff Buckley, David Bowie, Mike Keneally (everyone seems to know him from Vai but nobody really talks about how brilliant "Cause Of Breakfast" or "Why Am I Your Guy" are) and The Tea Party (great guys!) onto the table and add:

Placebo
Muse
My Bloody Valentine
John Mayer (that little bugger can PLAY!)

I was going to put Muse in there but they are somewhat discussed, so I didn't - but they're amazing. And yes, John Mayer can play, I saw him live a few months ago and he rocked, even if his compositions are all too nice soft and cuddly for my tastes...

Well, I am one of those people that listens to everything, if I have to!Obviously if I had a preference I would listen to metal etc. But round my way, everyone listens to "chart music". Which, be far, most of the time is crap . But I listen to anything really I suppose, I think you have to or else everything would drive you mad!

My 2 favourite singers ever are.....Lionel Ritchie and Barry White. So I listen to all their stuff all the time. And I think its good to have broad musical tastes, its good for ya. I mean, nearly ALL their songs are what I call "classics".

I also listen to Rod Stewart, The Rolling Stones, Creme, Fleetwood Mac etc
