If you wanted to be a rock star who would you choose?

I would have to be Brian May.

Have to be Amy Lee. she has the most beautiful and powerful voice and she can really express emotion well.

She plays piano well as well.

EDIT: how many "well"s did I need in that post???

I've always liked Natalie Merchant's voice and now I can add Amy Lee to that list. If I could sing like either one of them or like Ann Wilson from Heart, I wouldn't complain.

Errrrrrrr... I'd have to say if I had to be a SINGER it would be a toss-up between Brian Johnson (AC/DC), Bon Scott (AC/DC), and Paul Stanley (Kiss).

Does it have to be rock?

If not, I want to play bass like Stanley Clarke, keyboards like Rick Wakeman and guitar like Jeff Beck. Or maybe Robin Trower.

And I really need to sound like Sarah Vaughn. *sigh*

If you just want rock, I'll have to ponder that a bit...

I've grown a fond liking for Phil Collins. I've always enjoyed his music, but I just watched him live at Live Earth, and he is amazing!

I have been a Stone Temple Pilots fan for quite some time, but in the last year or so I've discovered Day Of Fire.
They are a christian alternative band and I just can't get enough of their music. I got to see them in concert last month and their performance and testimony was great. They are already working on their third album coming out next year. I'm looking forward to hearing it.

I'd love to be Perry Farrell, but only if I could be back with the original Jane's Addiction. Maybe I could just raid his wardrobe! Awesome!

I just saw his "Baby Did a Bad, Bad Thing". Now THAT's what I call a video.

My big three (on the rock side) are Springsteen, the Rolling Stones, and Jimi Hendrix. I have to give the Pogues almost an equal nod here, since I'm a fan of darned near everything they've ever done.
