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

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.

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

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.

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.
