Forums - Music Discussion - Top 5 Singer/Band

Hmm. As leatherhat says it depends on the mood. Now I would say:

 1-Queen/Freddie Mercury 
2-The Cranberries
3-Depeche Mode

4-Coldplay
5-GreenDay

Queen, Cranberries and Depeche Mode will always be in the top 5, the other 2 change between those and others like Red Hot Chili Peppers, Muse, Radiohead, Weezer, David Grey, Fito y los Fitipaldis, ...

Nice list, I'm not a massive fan of Pink or N.Furtado but I like them, and all the others apart from Foster the People I like a lot. I haven't heard of Foster the People but i'm gonna look into it now.

As for my top 5, I don't know if i could choose that easily but I'll have a go... Ok, gonna go through my Spotify list and pick out the artists that stand out enough (generally I will have at least 5 of their songs I listen to regularly, and probably like more of their songs too)

Aerosmith, Basement Jaxx, Blondie, Bob Marley, The Cardigans, The Ghemical Brothers, Coldplay, The Cranberries, The Darkness, David Bowie, Elbow, Elvis Costello, A Fine Frenzy, Florence & the Machine, Goldfrapp, Gorillaz, Hot Chip, Kylie Minogue, Ladyhawke, Lana Del Ray, Led Zeppelin, Leftfield, Madonna, Massive Attack, Metric, Michael Jackson, Moby, Muse, No Doubt, Pink Floyd, Pomplamoose, Queen, Radiohead, The Rolling Stones, Royksopp, Scissor Sisters, The White Stripes, The Who, The XX, Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

Ok, If I were forced to narrow that down to 10.... err, Goldfrapp, Hot Chip, Kylie Minogue, Led Zeppelin, Massive Attack, Muse, Queen, Radiohead, Royksopp, Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

And finally down to 5:
- Goldfrapp
- Led Zeppelin
- Massive Attack
- Muse
- Royksopp



Led Zeppelin
Deep Purple/Black Sabbath (there's a bit of a tie here)
Bob Dylan
The Beatles
Elvis Presley/The Rolling Stones (another tie!)

If I only could listen to these artists/bands for the rest of my life I wouldn't complain! You could always throw in Bruce Springsteen as well...

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.
