    I thought this was one of the best polls I'd ever seen until I saw the answers. I thought it was about artists and, for me, it'd have been Salvador Dali. But given that it's about musicians, I have to say that Mozart is a wonderful answer given how young he died and how talented he was. I'd also say Jules Massenet because of the body of work he lost. He should be better known than he is.

    Beyond the classical, I'd say John Lennon, Kurt Cobain, Marc Bolan, Frank Sinatra, and if Bono could die so that any one of those could live, it'd be a double win!

    Does "Eminem before he started to suck" counts?

      Dear God,
      Please send back John Lennon. I'll gladly trade for Bieber.

      Sincerely,
      Blitz.

      That's a good one! I'd like to see what he'd think of modern music...love or hate?

      Personally I'd choose Lennon or Kurt Cobain.

    This one was so easy to decide.

    James "The Reverand Tholomew Plague" Sullivan.
    Aka 'The Rev', Drummer for Avenged Sevenfold.

    He truly was an amazing drummer and songwriter. Sad to see him go.

    RIP The Rev.

    Kurt Cobain.

    Of the ones you listed I'd rather they all stay good and dead to be honest.

    I couldn't decide between Michael Jackson or Tupac (really both) so I'll say Heavy D since he just passed away ):

    Bob marly, obviously. Also i would like to say that MJ makes a hellava cool dead guy, keep him dead.

  • disthing

    Probably Kurt Cobain too, but maybe it's only fair to use this single amazing magical wish to bring someone back to life who died accidentally. I mean, people that chose to die probably wouldn't appreciate the resurrection as much as people who were killed or accidentally died.

    (now I'll just sit and wait for the "Kurt Cobain was murdered!" mob to descend :P)

    Damn, why can't I bring them all back? There are rumors that Tupac isn't really dead and he might come back in 2014. We will have to wait and see.
