Requiem 01-10-2008 10:42 AM

Weird Al Yankovic

Kane Knight 01-10-2008 11:12 AM

SLAAAAAAAAAAAAYER!

Kane Knight 01-10-2008 11:13 AM

No, but seriously, Kurt Cobain.

ct2k 01-10-2008 11:49 AM

Elvis

Bad Company 01-10-2008 11:54 AM

yeah, the first name that came to mind was John Lennon, and then I thought for about 2 more Seconds and decided on Elvis.

ron the dial 01-10-2008 11:58 AM

I think it comes down to Lennon and Cobain, with the argument being somewhat parallel to Ali vs. Jordan. I really don't know who to pick.

Bad Company 01-10-2008 12:09 PM

Cobain? Are You Serious? More influential than Elvis or Michael Jackson? Come on.

ron the dial 01-10-2008 12:16 PM

Who said anything about influence? ICON.

Lennon: Hogan.
Elvis: The Rock.
Cobain: Gillberg.

ct2k 01-10-2008 01:26 PM

I don't think its Cobain personally, I think Cobain is to Lennon or Elvis what Michael Jordan was to Muhammed Ali in that argument tbh

Requiem 01-10-2008 01:41 PM

Wait.. did someone actually take KK seriously when he said Cobain? Does anyone pay attention in the music forum?

Savio 01-10-2008 01:45 PM

Michael would be up there if he wasn't so weird.

I thought somebody else had actually legitimately put his name forward:o

Thing is someone probably will, hell there were a number of people in the sports forum who think Wayne gretzky is a bigger sporting icon than Muhammed Ali:lol:

KK wasn't serious. I get it. But you know Cobain's going to be said.

el fregadero 01-10-2008 03:15 PM

Nobody pays attention in general around here, but I'm not the only one who mentioned Cobain.....

St. Jimmy 01-10-2008 04:22 PM

Chuck Manson.

Blue Demon 01-10-2008 04:23 PM

Lennon is up there.....Clapton perhaps as well?

El Vaquero de Infierno 01-10-2008 05:17 PM

Probably Elvis.

weather vane 01-10-2008 05:35 PM

Elvis

Kane Knight 01-10-2008 05:42 PM

Madonna. Just to piss off Wadding.

Kane Knight 01-10-2008 05:46 PM

Seriously, Elvis strikes a chord in a way nobody else does. The Beatles are probably a close second as a group, and Hendrix (Overrated though he is) has to be up there.

FakeLaser 01-10-2008 06:04 PM

Lennon

Kid Robb 01-10-2008 06:37 PM

Elvis.

I'd have Hendrix up there as well

Indifferent Clox 01-10-2008 07:02 PM

Lennon...

Downunder 01-10-2008 08:00 PM

Elvis

weather vane 01-10-2008 08:20 PM

SYKE

obviously Lukas Rossi

Fignuts 01-10-2008 09:43 PM

Elvis, unfortunatly.

FakeLaser 01-10-2008 10:30 PM

Boy George

Michael jackson, lol. Of course Cobain is more influential. Seriously, besides being able to moonwalk, who has Jackson influenced or what has he influenced in terms of music.

Look, all MJ influences now are little kids into his bedroom.:lol:

Kane Knight 01-10-2008 11:47 PM

Kurt Cobain did, too. He liked to steal songs and little kids' innocence.

GD 01-10-2008 11:50 PM

Elvis. The Beatles had the maximum chart topper albums. Jim Hendrix and Led Zepellin for their contribution to rock. Bryan Adams and Sting are really popular back in south east Asia.

Elvis, followed closely by The Beatles. Personal preference is for the lads, but people worship Elvis in a way that nobody else compares to.

Jesus Shuttlesworth 01-11-2008 02:57 AM

Shut the fuck up

Rammsteinmad 01-11-2008 03:21 AM

Michael Jackson.
