Re: A genie gives you the chance to resurrect a singer that died to soon
Lennon died when he married Yoko-Elvis Presley
Okay, I made that up.

Re: A genie gives you the chance to resurrect a singer that died to soon
Some of the lore that goes along with the singers that died too young is just that. Sometimes its better off wondering "what could have been" than what actually would happen.
Just an interesting thought, someone mentioned Andrew Wood from Mother Love Bone. If he doesn't OD, Eddie Vedder doesn't join the band, Temple of the Dog doesn't form, and Pearl Jam doesn't exist. If Kurt Cobain doesn't die, Dave Grohl doesn't become the front man he is for Foo Fighters. Two of my absolute favorite bands never form. If Cobain and Wood don't die does the grunge movement have the staying power it did? The one guy who wouldn't have sent ripple effects through music history is Lane Staley. His death was inevitable, but his constant heroine relapses really short circuited Alice in Chains. They wouldn't work on a new album without Lane and when ever they would try nothing materialized. |

Then again, I'll bravely admit that I like Post Grunge as well as Grunge.

not exactly Lennon, but Nick Drake should also be on the list.

Re: A genie gives you the chance to resurrect a singer that died to soon
Yep, lets keep Dave behind the kit. The Foo Fighters have been an above-average band for a long time, but they never had the "it" factor that Nirvana had, that truly dynamic sound...

Re: A genie gives you the chance to resurrect a singer that died to soon
i voted Lennon, but given the chance it's actually a guitarist i'd resurrect: Criss Oliva of Savatage.

Sappy and mediocre, he lost his edge and was doomed to put out Paul McCartney type solo albums, good but nothing great.

Re: A genie gives you the chance to resurrect a singer that died to soon
John Lennon. Simply because he was MORE than just a singer. He had the ability to change the world. And not just through his music. Think about that.
